Life can be full of challenges, but you don't have to navigate these challenges alone. I believe in creating a therapeutic environment that is relaxed, compassionate, and safe, where clients can explore their feelings and experiences without judgment. My philosophy values the authenticity and complexity of what it truly means to be human, tailoring my approach to meet the unique needs of each individual.

My goal is to create a safe environment where adults and children can explore challenges and experiences, fostering growth and healing.

Hi, I'm Cali O'Connor! I'm so glad you're here. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), specializing in trauma. Whether that be childhood trauma, "big-T trauma", or "little-t trauma", I provide a gentle, flexible and judgment-free approach. I am committed to empowering children and adults navigate the ways that trauma can manifest in daily life.

Therapy is tough work that requires a strong partnership. For that, we both need to do our best to relate straightforwardly with one another. My primary concern in therapy is to develop an honest relationship driven by a shared desire to understand your life, and how you came to be this version of yourself. After that, I'll help you decide whether you should seek to make changes and how to go about that.

You may be experiencing some difficulty taking care of your mental health but I'm glad you are taking the first step towards wellness, growth and empowerment by searching for a therapist. It takes courage to seek out therapy. As a therapist, I value the therapeutic process of reflection and relationship building through the implementation of Cognitive Behavior Therapy, EMDR, Brainspotting (BSP), Motivational Interviewing, and other personalized therapy approaches. Together we can develop plans to work towards reaching your goals.

Life may seem overwhelming, as if you are alone and no one understands you. Maybe you have an issue with someone, but the thought of conflict makes you shut down and avoid the situation. Perhaps you are anxious or consumed with worry or afraid of disappointing others. I have worked with many patients who struggle to stay connected in relationships or effectively communicate with others. You could struggle with anger issues and use anger to defend and protect yourself from being hurt.

Trust is vital when facing depression, anxiety, grief, substance use, relationship, and anger. My approach is rooted in empathy, creating a safe space for your journey. With tailored therapy, we'll navigate your challenges together, fostering resilience and empowering you to reclaim your life. Let's embark on this transformative journey.

Currently Accepting NEW Clients. Eating disorders (ED), anxiety, panic, and/or stress can take hold of you so it feels like you are no longer living the life you want. Do thoughts of food or weight, or feelings of guilt consume you? Or does Worry make it difficult to enjoy time with friends or family? Or maybe you feel so stressed that you feel like you might explode? These things can make it really difficult to be who you truly are; they can pull you away from life and the things that actually matter to you, like relationships, work, and pleasant activities (e.g., reading a book, going for a hike).

I specialize in treating adolescents and adults, as well as LGBTQ+ matters of all ages. I address issues such as anxiety and depression, life transitions, and substance abuse. I work with families on communication and focus on the family's overall happiness and how that can be achieved. I strive to create a safe, welcoming, and non-judgmental environment in order to help you meet your goals.

Everyone has a story with ups and downs, twists and turns, hopes and disappointments. Being alive is about doing what you care about, in service of your values, while accepting and thriving through your story’s plot twists. I enjoy helping people make sense of their story and to set free their free will, so as to live in the freedom of your chosen values. In addition to my Masters in Social Work, I also have a Master of Arts in Theology. While I will honor every client’s personal/spiritual beliefs as valid and their own, clients that wish to include their Catholic/Christian values will find the support they are looking for.

Hi there! Are you looking for a therapist who will simultaneously be your cheerleader and challenger? Who will empower you to step into the best version of yourself and take charge of your mental health and life? Look no further. My name is Iris and I am a Masters-level clinician who is currently pursuing a doctorate degree in Counseling Psychology.

I am a very down to earth, “let’s get real” type of human and trauma therapist. I work with clients ages 15+ to overcome thoughts, behaviors and feelings related to experiencing physical, sexual, emotional, psychological, financial, infidelity, and military trauma among others. My style tends to be very real. I don’t shy away from anger, cuss words, or sensitive subjects. I believe therapy sessions make more progress if we have a great rapport so that you can be your authentic self without feeling like you have to sensor yourself. I specialize in EMDR, TF-CBT, and narrative trauma therapies.

There is no "ideal client" in my eyes. I think the most important part of this experience is finding the right therapeutic relationship. If your needs fall into one of my specialties, great. If not, that is okay too. Feel free to reach out and we can chat about what you are wanting out of services and I promise to be transparent if I think we would be a good fit. My goal is not to find the "ideal client" but instead help in any way that I can. If that means finding someone else, I am good with that and will help you find someone that would benefit you more than myself.

As a parent and psychologist, I enjoy supporting children as they grow and strive to be their best. At the same time, I realize that the maturation process is not always easy and both children and parents often need outside supports. Emphasizing a collaborative process with my clients and their relevant care providers, I value working together to establish goals, individualize treatment, and evaluate progress. My services include providing short and long-term therapy with children, adolescents, and young adults to treat problems involving anxiety, depression, mood disorders, relational/social concerns, ADHD, adjustment problems, and family issues.

I believe the client is the expert. You know your self better than anyone. You know how you feel when life happens, you know what frustrates you and what makes you angry. You know what is upsetting and what makes you sad, and you know when something isn't right or that something is off. The problem is that sometimes you don't know why, and if you don't know why, you can't fix it. I take an approach that starts with uncovering what you believe, because so much of what you believe becomes reality whether it's through our behavior or through some kind of a self fulfilling prophecy.

My ideal client is someone who acknowledges a problem exists, even if they don’t quite know what it is. The source of that issue can be discovered and processed through therapy, leaving the client with effective tools and skills to cope with and manage their emotions.

Asking for help can feel scary, but it's often one of the most courageous and beneficial things you can do for you and your loved ones. I genuinely believe that every person has the capability to make positive changes, improve their lives, create new habits, and most importantly - feel better. I have a laid-back counseling style that creates an environment of comfort, nonjudgment, and understanding. I utilize EMDR and a cognitive behavioral and strengths-based approach throughout my work, and aid my clients in doing the same in their own lives.
