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.

I have worked with many clients who have felt that something was wrong with them for most of their lives, and these messages have caused deep pain. Through my training and through building connection, trust, and comfort, we better identify where these painful narratives come from. Clients are more able to then choose alternative narratives and experience themselves and their lives differently. My specialization lies in working with individual adults and couples who are LGBTQIA+, neurodivergent, and non-monogamous. I am passionate about supporting people during periods of change, exploration, and healing from complex trauma.

Are you looking to make long-lasting changes in your life? Maybe you're feeling things that you don't understand. Maybe you are noticing painful patterns in your life that seem to be repeating themselves. Maybe feelings of depression and anxiety have crept up on you, and you don't know how to make them stop. Maybe you're in a relationship that isn't right for you. Maybe you don't even know what "right for you" is. Maybe you're a caregiver who is trying to find some peace and calm in the middle of your stress. Or maybe you're just wondering if life is really supposed to be this hard. If that sounds like you, I think I can help.

I believe the process of therapy will help you clarify your feelings, understand yourself and others, explore options, and make changes in your life. My orientation as a therapist is both psychodynamic and interactive--gaining an understanding of your past to enhance your future. I consider self-knowledge and self-acceptance the best ways to overcome challenges encountered throughout life. Therapy should be tailored to a client's needs as no two people are alike, therefore I employ a variety of theories, techniques, and practices which customize treatment to the uniqueness of each individual.

My name is Mercedes Carey, and I'm a licensed social worker. I'm interested in assisting people in discovering new ways to live a lifestyle that promotes healing on a mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual level. I use somatic approaches, such as mindfulness and movement, to treat the mind and body together. As a queer masculine-presenting woman of color, I know what it’s like to belong to multiple marginalized identities and navigate spaces where your entire self is not acknowledged or welcomed. I am deeply committed to providing a safe therapeutic environment that recognizes and honors individuals as a whole person.
