I specialize in working with children and adolescents and offer psychological assessment services for all ages. I am trained in EMDR and also use ACT and CBT with mindfulness as therapeutic tools. I also do specialize in adult and child assessment of Autism and can offer therapy for individuals with ASD (regardless of suspected or confirmed diagnosis) and can provide evidence based practices to help remediate deficits in social thinking, anxiety, and self regulation.

I believe in meeting my client's where they are at in life. I realize there are a number of struggles we each face whether alone or amongst our families, children, or within parts of our lives such as in work and school. Listening to your needs or those of your child will help guide our work together. We will pull from your strengths and learning style to find new ways to create positive change in your life.

Life has many challenges and there are seasons in our life than can be difficult to navigate on our own. I get it because I have been there! It would be my privilege to come along side of you and help you discover "the you" that you want to be, or help you find solutions to your hurt or conflict. I am committed to working with individuals, children, couples and families with challenging circumstances identify their needs, build upon strengths and foster the development of new competencies, skills, and resilience.

Welcome to my practice. I have been in practice since 2007 and have been featured on ABC, NBC, and KCAL as an expert psychologist. I work primarily with men who have hit “rock bottom” and would like help getting up. These men are often in crisis when we first meet. The issues I address are typically related to unhealthy sexual behaviors, infidelity, financial recklessness, gambling, drugs/alcohol, dishonesty/lying, and relational conflicts. My therapy approach is a combination of psychoanalytic, cognitive-behavioral, and the 12-Step recovery model. I also share insight from my own painful but redemptive recovery journey.

Everyone experiences times in their life when they feel at the end of their rope. It takes a tremendous amount of courage to seek support, whether it be for yourself or for your child. You are experiencing anxiety, depression, isolation, feeling stuck, or struggling to find a different path. Your child is struggling with emotional outbursts, aggression, defiance, or behavioral challenges. These difficulties have caused relational problems, impairment at home or at work, and seem like a never ending battle. Our goal at Safe to Heal is to help you find a way to a healthier and more fulfilling life.

In my practice, it's all about empathy, respect, and valuing the diverse identities and experiences that make us who we are. My area of specialty and interest is in working with individuals who are neurodivergent, have developmental disabilities, or navigating life after a traumatic brain injury. Together, we create a safe space where you can explore and truly be yourself.

Everyone deserves an enriching life full of meaning and purpose regardless of the difficulties that may come our way. My goal is to provide an affirming space for you to develop a deep understanding of yourself, explore challenges you’re facing both internally and externally, and discover healthy ways to achieve your goals. No matter where our work together takes us, you will always receive unconditional acceptance, respect, and care.

Hi, Iʼm Kylee! Iʼm so happy youʼre here! Therapy can often seem like a journey of uncertainty and can even be a little scary. I want you to know that no matter where we go, I will be there by your side to sit with you through your story. As your therapist, I believe you are the expert of your life and I am deeply honored to be able to navigate your life experiences in a safe, empathetic and non-judgmental environment with you. There can be a lot of different emotions that may arise through experiences such as life transitions, anxiety or grief and it may seem overwhelming.

I see clients as on a journey of self-discovery to reach their own goals for health and healing. I join my clients on this journey and help to facilitate this process, acting as navigator while they direct the destination. I assist clients in discovering their strengths and support them in walking through their struggles, whether it be anxiety, depression, mood or personality disorders, or relationship difficulties. My joy is to see my clients find within themselves the answers to their questions and struggles, while empathetically supporting the process. I also have extensive experience with trauma and its effects.
