Maybe you're in a relationship where conflict is difficult to navigate, and you feel stuck in patterns that leave you feeling frustrated and alone. Maybe you're a parent who worries about your teen and their behaviors. Perhaps you're ready to heal past wounds and need support building a healthy sense of self. Having a space to talk to someone can help us feel seen, grounded, and ultimately allow us to discover our truest selves.

Are you and your partner struggling to communicate? Does it feel like you are talking in circles and are often misunderstood by your partner? Have you lost that spark in your relationship? Are you a parent who has lost connection with your teenager or child? Do you feel lost and overwhelmed? I decided to be a couple and family therapist because I know how hard relationships can be and that sometimes we need a little help. There is no shame in asking for help. We are not born with a roadmap on how to navigate troubled relationships and family. I believe all people are capable of meaningful and transformational change. Let me help.

Romantic struggles are stressful. Conflict with your beloved related to sexuality/intimacy, infidelity, parenting, polyamory etc. can be exhausting. Communication with your family member can feel so frustrating at times. "Getting on the same page" with your partner prior to taking the next step would feel great. Adjusting to parenthood, coping with a difficult transition, or lack of fulfillment can make you feel powerless; you want to feel joy again! I support both adults and youth/teens with anxiety, depression, and trauma/emotional wounds via Brainspotting and other tools. You don't have to face these heavy challenges alone!

Relationships are hard work, and some days are much more overwhelming than others. When we don't feel like we are getting along with ourselves or with our loved ones, we sometimes choose to yell, scream, walk away, or freeze up. Sometimes we drink or take something else. I believe that our relationships are vital and that when we don't feel like they are going well, it can ruin our day or make us anxious. You deserve to feel comfortable with yourself and with your relationships, and exploring unhelpful patterns can start you on a different path.

Let's be real; you're on this site because you're looking to get things done. When meeting with me, we will identify clear goals that support your present and future self while healing the previous versions of you. You can expect to be cared for and challenged. That's because I believe in you; I believe in your strength and your ability to overcome. For the past fourteen years, I have been fortunate enough to work alongside people in their journey of healing. I've seen the resilience, adaptability and power of the human experience and I want to support you in seeing that in yourself.

I appreciate the courage it takes to seek therapy. If you are struggling with loss or life transitions, stuck in various forms of addiction or simply desire some objectivity then I would love to work with you! I enjoy helping people find insight and healing. In the process my approach is direct yet compassionate.

Hi! My name is Steph. As a therapist I get to join clients in their personal journeys as they grow and heal from different life events, and I'm here to support you through a variety of challenges. I have specialized training and experience with anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic pain, and unwanted behaviors. I enjoy working with preteens, teens, and adults.

Ready to try something different? You've tried traditional talk therapy and have felt better, but still find yourself feeling stuck in the same thought patterns or going back to old behaviors. I help adolescents and overwhelmed adults process complex trauma using brain-body and alternative therapies. Complex trauma refers to "little t" traumas that compound throughout our life- from difficult childhood experiences to stressful life events. I especially enjoy working with adult children of emotionally immature parents.

Are you struggling with self-confidence? Do you second-guess and shrink yourself in relationships? Find yourself upset "for no reason" often? You’re a hard worker, you use your logic, but still question your worth, feeling disconnected and powerless. Maybe you’re struggling with grief and loss, or coping with the chaos of a past or recent trauma. It’s all overwhelming, and you’re ready for things to get better. You’re ready to find the clarity you know is there. I want to help you get there.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, school counselor, and psychotherapist with a passion for working with clients across all ages and backgrounds. I have experience working with clients ages eight and up regarding topics such as social anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, transitions, general anxiety, perinatal therapy, grief and loss, and stress management.

We are a unique group of highly trained practitioners specializing in trauma and childhood wounds and the lasting effects they can have on our lives and relationships. We each have different styles and expertise ensuring one of our providers will fit your individual needs and the needs of your family. Our experienced clinicians treat most mental health and family related issues, depression and anxiety, parenting concerns and marital conflict, attachment and adoption issues, and severe trauma and PTSD. We offer individual therapy, couples therapy, family therapy, massage therapy, and neurofeedback for mind-body-spirit healing.

Do you ever feel like you struggle to grasp or maintain control of your life? Or do all your relationships feel the same and lack the substance you’re looking for? Or maybe you struggle to connect to your feelings and express them in healthy ways. Sometimes when we grow up around chaos, chaos feels more comfortable than stillness, leading to a life of self-sabotaging and negative behaviors.

Lately, emotional pain seems to be dictating your life and controlling almost everything you do. It's frustrating, overwhelming, and seemingly endless. It sucks. You try to keep busy to avoid it, but as soon as there is a brief pause in activity: while you wait at a red light, or lay in bed wide awake in the middle of the night, or settle in your chair for a moment of rest, that excruciating feeling creeps back in. it's so intense and deafening. You have nowhere to hide from it and no power to control it. You have tried the old ways to manage it, but they have stopped working like before.

Life can feel overwhelming - at times it would be nice to take one long vacation and hope everything would be fixed when you return. Or perhaps it feels like it would be too awful to tell someone what was really going on, or what has happened in the past. Through compassionate listening, empathy, and curiosity, I help individuals reclaim strength and healing.

You may keep parts of yourself or your relationship(s) hidden because you fear judgment from others. Perhaps shame and feelings of inadequacy keep you quiet while you ache to be seen, heard, and understood. Imagine a space where your authenticity and the uniqueness of your experiences are not only acknowledged, but celebrated. Whether you are seeking support around sensitive sex-related issues, aiming to heal your relationship, or needing support as you navigate challenges associated with postpartum and/or parenthood, you are not alone and your experience is valid.

I have experience working with; physical and sexual trauma, emotional abuse, domestic abuse, self esteem, disordered eating, childhood trauma, gender/sexual identity, and more. My goal with each individual is to provide a place for you to feel accepted and heard. When processing traumatic experiences it is crucial and necessary to feel safe and in control of your therapeutic journey. With honest communication and empathy, I hope to provide clients the ability to begin healing from narratives that have affected their sense of self and their relationships in present day.
