I am Chloe Lucas, LMFT. I've been a therapist for just under 10 years now. My personality has been described as direct, curious, and grounding. My practice focuses on trauma work, teens, adult individuals, and parenting. My training is rooted in spirituality as an important part of the whole self. I see therapy as an important tool for existential growth. Our culture doesn't make enough space for emotional expression and introspection. Therapy is a unique relationship that allows for the practice of emotional intimacy such that we may become more attune and connected to ourselves and others.

I have worked with diverse populations of all ages. I believe that everyone deserves to live their best life, use their voice, and be free in their body. As humans, our sense of self is shaped by family stories, the environment we grew up and live in, relationships, past traumas, and socio-political-economic and cultural influences, that may have clouded our vision of ourselves or who we want to be. My joy as a therapist is to provide space for you to speak your truth, find your way back to yourself, reinvent, and rediscover who you are. Change is a moment-by-moment process.

Have you always been the responsible one, the person everyone turns to for support, while your needs feel invisible? Do self-doubt and constant criticism leave you feeling stuck and never good enough? Are anxiety and overwhelm keeping you on edge, always waiting for the next shoe to drop? Perhaps you’re caught in a cycle of people-pleasing and self-sacrifice, leaving you emotionally drained and disconnected from your own needs. Maybe you grew up navigating one crisis after another, only to find yourself in the same exhausting patterns in your relationships today. If this resonates, you’re not alone and your healing can begin today.
