We assist clients in finding connection with themselves and others and to begin to unpack and release all of the needs that they believe hold them back from living their best life.

Counseling is amazing. Whether your problem seems simple or more complex, it is a privilege to partner with you through the process. I am 7 years into my private practice working with adults, teens and kids, and I have 13 years experience as an elementary school counselor working with children ages 4-12. The focus of my training and work with clients has included: anger, anxiety, autism spectrum disorder, depression, divorce, emotional difficulties, learning disabilities, foster care, grief/loss, OCD, trauma/abuse and more. My clients can expect a safe space to be reflective, vulnerable, heard and appreciated.

I think of psychotherapy as a creative partnership between client and therapist, accepting the client, just as they are, while also working with them towards lasting change. I strive to create a warm, safe environment, using culturally relevant, evidence-based approaches that foster collaboration and trust. We'll work to improve self-efficacy, develop healthier relationships with self and others, and practice skills to regulate emotions that have interfered with your quality of life. My orientation is trauma-informed and theoretically integrative, using cognitive-behavioral, biosocial, interpersonal process and attachment theories.

I like to think of psychotherapy as an intersection between science and art. As a clinician, my task is to merge the art of empathic healing with the scientific rigor of empirically-supported treatment - by providing therapy that is effective, individualized, person-centered, and culturally informed. Our therapy relationship will be based on mutual respect, trust, and collaboration in pursuit of your unique goals. Together, we will work to solve problems and improve your quality of life, by implementing evidence-based treatments in a manner that is consistent with your values and sensitive to your needs, strengths, and preferences.

As a licensed clinical social worker, I strongly believe that the relationship between the therapist and the client is imperative to the client meeting their personal goals.

From relationships, depression, and anxiety to grief, sexuality, and career issues, the common characteristic is that I provide a safe place to really be heard – and to really be understood. As a result, we are able to address emotional pain, challenging situations, or anything which is keeping you from achieving happiness – and find effective ideas and solutions.

I enjoy working with clients to address various challenges including sexual addiction, infidelity, communication issues in relationships, boundaries, work issues, anger management, and other challenges. In my more than 20 years of practice, I have found that I especially love working with individuals with sexual behavior issues and couples at any stage of their relationship. I also enjoy doing Christian counseling with individuals and couples who are seeking it to overcome the challenges they are facing. While I primarily work with adults, I have also worked with teens.

Do you feel like you’re running yourself ragged trying to make everyone else happy? Like you don’t know who you are outside of others’ expectations? I work with people who are struggling with identity in different ways. Some feel like their identity was lost to abuse or to a bigger personality in the house. Others are recovering from losing who they are because of a traumatic experience that seemed to change them forever. Still others do not feel like their true identity is within the body they were born in.

I believe that every individual has within them what is necessary to reach their full potential. I offer a safe and compassionate environment where clients are able to foster insight and self-awareness that leads to positive change. It is an honor to walk alongside my clients on their path to emotional wellbeing. I have experience working with individuals dealing with a variety of mental health concerns, such as depression, anxiety, grief, life transitions, adjustment issues, and trauma. I have experience working with teenagers and adults.

Clients describe my style as relaxed and conversational. I have extensive experience with CBT, DBT, and Self Compassion therapy models and my focus is sharing strategies from these models in clear and uncomplicated ways. I focus on building a relationship with my clients so they feel safe to talk about what's going on without throwing a bunch of clinical jargon at them. This can be tough work, my goal is to provide a meaningful experience and help you figure things out.

I see adults who have historically experienced unstable relationships and find themselves in uncomfortable relationship dynamics. I work with clients to provide information about trauma responses and replace self-sabotaging behaviors with adaptive coping strategies. My skillset is in working with people who have symptoms of personality disorders and those who have had difficulty safely expressing their emotions in the past. When people gain insight into their emotions and behaviors, positive changes occur.

I am an international adoptee and have experience working with adolescents, couples, and families from all walks of life. I also enjoy working with people around the following areas: adoption, foster care, mood disorders, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, ADHD, learning disability, interpersonal relationships, family conflict, life transitions, and crisis interventions.

Does it seem like everyday you try to get your footing & life knocks you back down again? Do you worry or have anxiety about 'every little thing'? Do you find yourself thinking (AND thinking) about things other people just don't? Do you lose focus with your "ADHD brain"? I get it... and I can help! My goal is to help you feel important, special & supported. I work really hard to create a safe & comfortable space for you to share all of life's most difficult hurdles without fear of judgement or criticism. I will work alongside you & meet you right where you are, no matter how difficult, uncertain, or ugly you think that place is.

If you have been frustrated by past therapy experiences, you’re not alone. Traditional approaches don’t always work for those of us with ADHD, Autism, and other types of neurodivergence. That’s why I do things a bit differently. My approach is strengths-based, empowering, and neurodiversity-affirming. Instead of trying to fit a square peg into a round hole, neuro-affirming therapy embraces the squareness. It recognizes that what works for one person may not work for another, and that's perfectly okay.

What if you could get depression or anxiety to take a backseat in your life. What if your relationships could get to a better place. Have you been noticing things in everyday life are more difficult to manage? You are not alone. We can tackle these challenges together as we explore the change that moves you closer to the life you desire. I can help you restore the balance between mind and body that can ease depression, calm anxious thoughts, and regain safety. I am currently taking new clients and I would love the opportunity to be a part of your healing journey. Book your consultation or first session now using my website link.

If you are struggling to cope with stress and anxiety from past or ongoing difficulties (such as school/work stress, friendship/relationship problems, bullying, or family dynamics), I can help you process and problem-solve your experiences and offer a path forward. This includes learning coping skills and interpersonal effectiveness, as well as examining thought and behavior patterns. I enjoy working collaboratively with my clients to help them be the best version of themselves by helping them to identify their goals and to leverage their strengths to meet those goals.

Outwardly, you seem to have it all together. You’re living the perfect life… on paper. On the inside, it feels like you’re just keeping your head above water. Days are lackluster and monotonous, like someone muted all the colors of life. Yet the painful emotions are vibrant as ever, and are starting to feel overwhelming: anxiety, loneliness, shame. Gnawing emptiness. You try to distract yourself, but it’s getting harder. The critical voice in your head is growing more insistent. You can’t talk about it because you’re the one people go to with their problems. You know something has to change, but you don’t know how or where to start.

I’m Kira, a clinician who is practicing everyday, and learning new things because I’m challenged by the work that we do together. This is a safe place for us to practice, challenge one another, plant seeds and grow anew. Everyone experiences life challenges and changes that can create stress, confusion, discomfort and pain. Because life isn’t perfect, some or many of them cause wounding. Therapy can help you work through these life challenges and changes to create an easier journey.
