Are you searching for the one thing that will make you feel better? Do you struggle to connect with others? Are you willing to look beyond surface conflicts, towards your deepest needs and desires? I am a trans therapist who works with queer and trans people in their mid-lives seeking to heal childhood trauma in order to strengthen their relationships with others. My work supports people to create lives that are vibrant and balanced. I use a holistic, relational, and collaborative style to work with you in shifting old patterns, to move from uncertainty to clarity, in yourself and in relation to others.

My style is collaborative, compassionate and non formulaic. Together, we decide what the issues are and how to tackle them. A special focus of my practice is with creative's and culturally diverse people. Besides teaching clients new skills to overcome their feelings of depression, anxiety, trauma or low self-esteem, I am also trained as a master career coach and can help you find greater meaning in your career choices or achieve success in your job search or in improving your work relationships.

See my comments under "Note on Finance" on how to enroll with me. My goal is to help others find relief from the cycle of difficult thoughts and emotions that arise from a variety of life circumstances, whether adjusting to new events or dealing with a life-long struggle. Learning new skills, perspectives and being heard can be transformative. Your life-story, your beliefs and your strengths are of paramount importance. I strongly believe in acceptance, compassion and hope, offering these at all stages of our work together. I make it a priority to respond to every call by the end of the day.

Are you a queer or trans person feeling the weight of the world right now? Are you a radical fighting The System, but also fighting yourself? Maybe you are just an all-around misfit who hasn't felt comfortable in therapy offices in the past. Our group practice is for you! We are a team of dynamic and active therapists who meet you where you are at. Our therapists can support a wide range of issues including difficult life transitions (work, school, relationships, new baby), processing deeper emotional wounds/trauma, and day-to-day anxiety/depression. We also specialize in supporting our trans siblings in their gender transitions.

Are you struggling to do things differently, but continue to find yourself back in the place you started? As a marriage and family therapist, I specialize in relationships and in my years of experience I've learned that this is the main reason people seek therapy; help with their relationships. Whether it be your partner, parent, child or boss, relationships can cause a lot of distress when they are not going well. So good news, you are in the right place! Although we can’t change other people, we DO have the power to change ourselves. Let’s work together to empower you to change in ways that lead to positive changes in your life.

My work is rooted in a desire to support others in recognizing and resolving whatever holds them back, whether that's conscious or unconsciously held beliefs; internalized messages received from family, culture, or a sick society; grief, loss, anxiety, depression, or the challenge of navigating major life transitions. I believe we each hold the wisdom and power to build and sustain meaningful careers, relationships, and lives, even amid circumstances and pasts that are beyond our control.

How does one live a meaningful life? I use a narrative and existential approach to support you in exploring this question. My practice tends to work with individuals living alternative life styles, creative types, and those experiencing life transitions that could be impacting their self esteem and causing anxiety. I love working with clients who are actively self reflective and cultivating a personal sense of meaning in their lives through embracing uniqueness, creativity and agency. I enjoy working with couples as well as individual adults.

There’s a space here for more than talking. A space for reflection and repair, for digging deep, for recovery of who we were before we stumbled, before everyone told us who to be. My focus is on supporting clients to move through symptoms which are often bred of early environmental failures. I have supported clients experiencing symptoms of PTSD, complex/developmental trauma, anxiety, depression, and addictive relational patterns, as well as those on the autism spectrum. I offer a grounded space of warmth, generosity, and compassion to walk alongside you on your path.

Seeking therapy is an act of courage and vulnerability. I meet clients where they are and provide warmth, authenticity and safety to obtain their goals. I value active discussion and feedback to help you feel empowered in making decisions and solving problems. I enjoy working with people who are navigating transitions, are seeking support in improving self esteem, experience anxiety and are looking to process family dynamics. I have experience in supporting people with trauma, depression, anxiety, life stressors, gender identity exploration and conflict in relationships. I see teens, adults and couples in my practice at this time.

It takes courage to ask for help. I honor you in your pursuit of healing and wholeness. Experience and data show that a strong therapeutic relationship is the key to success in therapy. I endeavor to provide a safe container into which each individual human being who comes for therapy is welcomed. Being met with empathy, respect, acceptance, kindness, understanding, genuineness and non-judgement opens a space where each person can explore their issues without feeling the need to censor or conform. Having another person inalienably aligned with your own deepest Self empowers your unique route to healing and so transformation.

My practice is relationship focused. I particularly enjoy working with couples and have found that if couples are willing to put the work in, great strides can be made towards healing and connection. I have completed two levels toward certification in the Gottman method of couples therapy and have also done training in the Emotionally Focused Therapy for couples. In my work with couples and individuals, I incorporate mindfulness-based therapy.

I work with my clients to address a wide range of mental health and life challenges, addressing both problematic patterns of behavior and ways of not being able to show up in life as you would like to. The ultimate goal of therapy is improving functioning in life activities and quality of life, to be able to both experience your emotions and also engage in life undeterred. I use a whole body mind spirit system somatic approach and work within this lens to address your challenges from a character structure perspective.

We will also explore your aspirations and identify ways you can more fully embody your ideal image of yourself.

Hello, I am experienced working with clients around a variety of issues including depression, social isolation, anxiety, trauma, aging, chronic pain, illness, abuse, numerous mental health concerns, brain injuries and relationship concerns. I consider myself "client centered" in my approach and I take a collaborative approach. Having said that I also believe that clients sometimes feel lost and look to us for finding direction (finding their goals and taking the steps to reach their goals).

Whether it be to better manage mental health symptoms, phase of life challenges, interpersonal difficulties, or challenges with identity/self-actualization/integration, I support clients as they look inward and identify how cognitive patterns affect behavior and emotions. I prefer to take a client-focused but also evidence-based approach to exploring the relationship between thoughts, emotions and behaviors. Through the application of this clinical matrix, clients can identify potential origins, triggers and patterns.
