We live in a time of incredible stress and high expectations. Anxiety and depression are familiar to many of us to some degree. Sometimes, it feels hard to function, doesn’t it? You may often hear your mind telling you to “push through” or “get over it.” Maybe you're here because you want to relate with your thoughts and emotions differently. Perhaps emotions weren’t part of your vocabulary before, and now you're ready to explore them. Whatever the reason, a therapist can help you organize and understand your feelings—like cleaning out a cluttered drawer.

My hope is to cultivate a therapeutic environment that is authentic, empathetic, non-judgmental and filled with compassionate curiosity. I view therapy as a collaborative process that encourages personal growth, self-compassion, and empowerment in the areas that are important to you. As an art therapist, if interested, I can incorporate the art making process as a restorative tool to increase insight in nonverbal forms of expression while expanding your own imaginative capabilities. My desire is to provide a safe space to explore past experiences and traumas while creatively working towards healing and growth.

As an AASECT-certified sex therapist, I work with individuals and couples facing challenges regarding differences in sex drive, sexual pain & dysfunctions such as ED and vaginismus, issues with orgasm, and other issues related to intimacy and performance. While anxiety is not always the cause of these challenges, anxiety is certainly part and parcel of how they manifest. Therapy is geared towards optimizing mental and physical health, managing anxiety through lifestyle changes, improving communication with loved ones, and reaching for better quality of life, which frequently includes: better sex!

Our relationship with ourselves is constantly evolving; a reality that is simultaneously wonderful & deeply challenging. This has an impact on our ability to engage in our lives, communities, & relationships. The journey of self-discovery can feel daunting- my approach to therapy offers a starting point. Through a balance of insight & mindfulness, I invite clients to shift their point of view. I value clients' unique perspective and I believe there’s no such thing as a “one-size-fits-all” approach to therapy. Together, with all our nuances & imperfections, we can co-create a therapeutic relationship that feels safe & impactful.

At the heart of my work, I approach therapy from a relational, psychodynamic therapy model, which means I believe the relationship between the client and therapist can be a transformative component in the growth process. I am a LPC combining modern neurobiology with holistic somatic healing, the psychodynamic therapeutic relationship, and body-based practices to create an experiential awakening on a bodily, psychological and emotional level. I work from a somatic-centered therapeutic approach, meaning that I believe that the body tells the stories and narratives. For more information, my website is: www.kellypastori.com

You already know the areas of your life that are holding you back, but you don't know where to start - which has led you here. Maybe anxiety is causing you to avoid the people, places, and activities you used to enjoy. Maybe chronic illness makes you disconnect from the things you value due to exhaustion and overwhelm. Maybe intrusive thoughts about causing harm, contamination, your identity, or about other scary topics take up your whole day. You worry that things will never feel "normal" again. You'd like to be able to work through the anxiety and frustration these things cause, and start living your life again.

You may have experienced being shut down or misunderstood in spaces in which you thought you could be safe and appreciated. From those experiences, you may be questioning and wanting ways to assert yourself. You may be seeking ways to cope with systematic oppression and racism. You may be seeking ways to strengthen your relationships with friends, family, and partners. You’ve been wanting a space to speak with someone about these things in an environment that is reliable and affirming of who you are.

My goal as your therapist is to provide a space where your thoughts, feelings, and ideas can be formed and expressed through supportive dialogue. Whether you are experiencing anxiety or depression, going through a difficult transition, processing a challenging relationship, or struggling to cope with trauma or loss, I can help you find meaning in your experiences and make changes at your pace. People often seek therapy when they experience a loss of power and choice in some aspect of their lives. Empowerment and conscious choice-making are primary themes throughout my work with clients.

Have you labeled yourself as a high achiever, a perfectionist, a people pleaser? Do you constantly feel like you have to hustle for your worth, and just wish you could feel content with who you are right now? Maybe you've wondered, "Is life supposed to be this hard?" If so, I've been there and so have most clients I work with. You're not alone and there is nothing wrong with you for feeling this way. There is a path forward to feeling more content and more love towards yourself. I'm not saying this is easy - but as your therapist, I will help you own your story and understand that you are enough exactly as you are.

I feel that much of the work of psychotherapy takes place in the context of the relationship. To that end, I endeavor to create a safe and supportive environment within which a productive working relationship can develop. In this relationship, clients can expect a balance of empathy, respect, and gentle encouragement to do the very difficult work of healing, personal change, and growth. This approach to therapy has enabled me to work successfully with a diverse group of individuals with an array of clinical presentations.
