I find that it can be challenging, trying to figure out where you are presently and where you are trying to go. While navigating current life experiences, the challenges can cause frustration, with a need to seek freedom, sometimes choosing the unhealthy ways to cope. Sometimes we need a space and a support person that can help us navigate through these challenges and find healthy ways to cope while unpacking the known and unknown trauma that exists. Being able to have a safe space and a support, not only empowers us, but holds us accountable to those things that we set out to do and reminding us that we are not alone.

Therapy can seem daunting, though not quite as daunting as a lifetime of emotional discomfort. Lindsey’s approach to psychotherapy is warm and collaborative, empowering her clients to achieve happiness and an unbreakable inner well-being. Trust and confidentiality allow clients to speak freely from the depths of their mind and soul while feeling truly seen, accepted, and cared for even in their darkest moments. Through a compassionate therapeutic relationship, clients work with the therapist to discover the formation of their unique personality traits, beliefs, and patterns in relationships that contribute to present-day distress

According to my mother, my first word was "why." Why is the sky blue? Why can't I have a cookie for breakfast? Why are people hurting? This curiosity is integral to my work as a therapist, as I strive to understand my client's worldview and the problems they are facing. Whether you are reliving past trauma, plagued by worrisome thoughts, concerned about your relationship or substance use, or feeling generally dissatisfied in life, I will provide an empathic ear, support, and guidance to help you meet these challenges and make the life changes you desire.

My ideal client would be someone who is ambitious and eager to make a positive impact but is facing some challenges that are holding them back. We would work together to develop a roadmap to success that would be right for them and their recovery goals. They want the tools to manage themselves effectively and support to overcome their fears.

If you are trying to better understand your child or help them through a difficult time; I offer families the support and nurture to grow stronger together. Too often children can be labeled by behaviors when they are struggling to communicate something valuable. I assist parents in exploring the meaning behind these behaviors by taking time to reflect on the relationships, interactions, and care giving responses to improve the overall quality of the relationship.

Are you ready for a change and unsure how to navigate a path forward? Throughout life, we can embark on many different journeys. Sometimes we are unsure if our next move will be the best move.
