Hi! I'm Andrea. I work with individuals, couples and families who are feeling stuck in painful dynamics and are looking for support to feel healthier and happier. The pain of our past traumas and dysfunctional relationships can leave us with persistent shame which cuts us off from caring for ourselves and connecting with others. I will support you to lean into the discomfort, so we can transform your pain and trauma into wisdom, empowerment and a deeper trust and compassion for yourself and in your relationships.

As a therapist, I understand that the decision to pursue therapy can be a difficult one. In my practice, I take a strengths-based, trauma-informed approach to therapy rooted in feminist and decolonial values. I view therapy as a collaborative partnership, and I prioritize clients’ right to self-determination. My clinical approach is LGBTQIA+ affirming, harm reductive, and informed by disability justice. We will work at a pace that feels safest to you because I understand that experiencing painful emotions or revisiting difficult experiences can be overwhelming.

You may feel increasingly more anxious, emotional, or depressed. Life may even feel unmanageable. You might find yourself trying to fill internal voids with external things, such as substances, food, sex, or relationships. Experiences from your past could leave you feeling stuck in your present. Change can be terrifying, and taking that first step may feel really scary.

I believe that the beginning of a person’s healing journey starts with creating a safe, collaborative, and supportive therapeutic space that can pave the way toward restorative growth. The foundation of my therapeutic work stems from understanding how life experiences and everyday stressors impact how we engage with the world. With an intentional focus on individuals’ stories, I use tools that aid in bottom-up trauma processing, including EMDR, through a relational approach, building greater awareness and insight.

I believe that the rich stories we tell about ourselves are full of possibility. However, when we experience circumstances that make us feel disconnected, stressed, or depleted, it can become difficult to recall our own strengths and the ways we continue to persevere. I listen closely to your story to help you rediscover your own strengths while also creating opportunity to develop new ways of relating to yourself and your relationships. In our work together, you will find me intentionally curious, often encouraging exploration of all parts of you--the emotional, intellectual, physical, spiritual, and playful aspects of your life.

Feeling steady and rooted in relationships with ourselves and others can help establish a foundation for a greater sense of wellbeing. Through a relational and attachment-focused approach, I support people hoping to have a deeper understanding of themselves and their connections with those around them (friends, family, community, etc.). This may include exploring cultural and ancestral identity, which is another component of someone better knowing who they are and how they engage with the world around them. I am also here for helping professionals seeking support through compassion fatigue and feeling overworked from their careers.

Can't sleep? Let's talk about it! I love working with people who are new to or curious about therapy. Sessions are dedicated times where you can openly share what's going on in your life and in your brain. Do you need to process by exploring your family's D&D alignments or equating your co-workers to the 2010 Blackhawks roster? Let's do it. Your therapy sessions will be specific to you - there are no right or wrong answers. Together we can figure out what you need to feel better and work on getting you there. All you have to do is show up and be willing to try things.

People seek therapy for many different reasons, often on the heels or in the midst of navigating life transitions and important relationships. Those who work with me tend to be seeking ways to better tolerate & manage the full range and intensity of their experiences, while honoring their genuine selves. In my 18 years of clinical work, I’ve focused on helping individuals & families find and practice ways to live regulated, connected, and meaningful lives amidst all the ups and downs of life. I enjoy working with people of all ages and specialize in anxiety, identity issues, complex trauma, and supporting child-parent relationships.

We live in times of incredible stress and unbelievably high expectations. I’m sure you hear your mind telling you to “push through” or “get over it.” Can you tell what it says when you finally let yourself accept that you need help?

If you're here maybe a small part of you believes change is possible, if that part isn't there, I'll believe until you can. I provide a compassionate and caring space where you feel seen and heard, so that we can uncover your strengths, dreams, and learn how to navigate through the complexities of society, your experiences, and your feelings. My hope is to create a space of exploration and collaboration, where you can feel empowered, laugh, be vulnerable, and grow. I enjoy working with clients of all identities, including: LBGTQIA+ individuals, trans/non-binary and gender explorative folks, BIPOC and mixed-raced people.
