Hello, I'm Elisabeth, a neurodivergent therapist and social worker. I offer therapy for adults. I believe strongly in celebrating neurodiversity, LGBTQIA+ affirmation, racial justice, and advocating for body positivity and/or neutrality. I am passionate about helping clients explore and build meaningful connections with self and others. As a neurodivergent person, I can appreciate both the unique strengths and challenges that come with having a brain that works differently!

I am currently taking new clients, and can do appointments in person or via telehealth, with mostly evening availability. Starting therapy can be a big step, whether you are experiencing anxiety, depression, healing from trauma, or want trying to make life changes.

“Before you assist others, put your oxygen mask on first." Prioritizing your wellness is essential. Perhaps you feel pulled in a million directions or you have suffered a loss. Perhaps you are stuck in an unhealthy relationship or you constantly compare yourself to others. Breaking unhealthy cycles of thought can be life-changing.

Areas of expertise include: Women’s and Men’s issues, Couples/ Family/Individual therapy (LGBTQ inclusive in all categories of therapy). Trauma in many forms, Depression and anxiety, ADHD, Bipolar disorder, acute stress and Post traumatic Stress Disorder, and personality disorders. I work with Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy model, and Internal Family Systems model. Most clients have internal conflicts that are difficult to sort, and difficult to understand how to mediate. From experience I have found We can build a gentler, more tolerant way of residing with conflict and pain.

Waitlist for new clients
While I am on a waitlist for new clients, I have immediate openings for gender affirming care letters. I can offer this service free of charge for those who can't afford it. Poet Anne Sexton wrote, "That the worst of anyone Can be, finally, An accident of hope." If you're here, you probably feel at your worst. Maybe a traumatic event has left you feeling broken and lost. Perhaps what you've been doing to cope just isn't working anymore, or is doing more harm than good. Whatever your reasons, I'm glad you're thinking about therapy. This process can be scary and takes hard work, and I welcome anyone courageous enough to seek out hope.

Tired of feeling like you are just in survival mode and pushing through each day? Life can feel just like too much to handle. Anxiety, ADHD, depression and overwhelm of daily demands can stop you in your tracks, and prevent you from moving towards what is important. Struggling relationships can make it hard to focus and provide a roller-coaster of feelings and be a source of constant worry. Feelings of shame and overwhelm may lead to the opposite of self-care, which can make things feel worse. No matter how stuck things feel, we can find a better way forward. All is safe to talk about in my office - only when you feel ready to.

Iyana (she/her) has an integrative counseling style with an emphasis on Multicultural, Feminist, and Cognitive Behavioral therapy. Iyana believes a therapeutic relationship is most effective when built on mutual respect and collaboration. Iyana will always honor the innate wisdom and insight that an individual carries. She rejects the notion that when we experience adversity, we need “rescuing.” Iyana instead embraces the idea that a sacred and safe compassionate holding space to give voice to our narratives will empower us to trust our lived experiences address our trauma, manage what is unbearable and live more intentionally.

A client once told me, "Every time we meet I feel I find another piece to my puzzle." Others tell me that they have gained helpful insights into themselves and their relationships. I believe I excel at helping people see the big picture in a new light, notice patterns and themes, and interpret what is going on in their lives with honesty, accuracy, and compassion. If you are having trouble identifying the problem, I can help! Otherwise, I am like any other therapist: active listener, pretty good memory, professional knowledge and skills to facilitate emotional processing and stress regulation, etc.
