My ideal client would be new to therapy, though motivated to change. I am aware of the challenges that come with seeking therapy and want to be a support to those who are hesitant with the process. Ideally, I would like a client who is self-aware, receptive to feedback, and willing to hold themselves accountable.

People come to therapy for all sorts of reasons, yet a common thread unites this motivation: the desire to understand one's experience. Sometimes life can be a struggle: identity, relationships, environments and situations can stress our resources and lead us to lean on familiar ways of being, even when those ways do not feel useful or helpful anymore. Therapy presents an opportunity to be curious, to foster new depths of understanding, and to develop a greater sense of meaning. It also provides a space to explore ways of relating to yourself, others in your life, and the world.

Hi, I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Expressive Art Therapist. Whether it's trauma, sexuality, family conflict, every day stressors we can explore with creativity, mindfulness, other modalities or simply being heard and held in the space. I have personal experience with mental health illnesses, chronic physical health issues and I am no stranger to being in your chair. I also am very transparent about where I stand politically aka human rights and am a loud and proud queer! Therapy already has power dynamics and I as a white cis person am very aware of this and do my best to name it, listen and make changes when needed.

Our broad goal––of course––is “the end of unnecessary suffering.” Sound about right? While we all strive for this, I specialize in helping folks with a very-unique kind of suffering: OCD. I can tell you that few people understand the pain and complexity of OCD—(even most therapists). I will listen intently to your unique story. Just know that I can introduce you to an arsenal of tools that can help: mindfulness, ERP (exposure and response prevention) and on and on. Yes, thoughts can be “sticky.” But––with hard work––if (or when) those thoughts come back around…they can be as quiet & as harmless as a yellow post-it.

I believe good psychotherapy can simultaneously alleviate distress while also cultivating joy, creativity, and fulfillment for oneself and others. My approach to therapy helps people remain deeply connected to themselves in order to more skillfully navigate relationship challenges, life transitions, and other difficulties. Flexible and collaborative, my approach brings attention to the emotional, physical, spiritual, and cultural aspects of healing and growth. I work well with people who are looking for both support and challenge and people who are seeking more ease in the face of difficulty.

I have worked in the field of mental health for 12 years, specifically in schools, hospital, & outpatient settings. I have always been grounded in supporting those that otherwise cannot advocate for themselves, particularly in navigating emotional health and the systems that support individuals. I find that building rapport and relational connection is essential in creating pathways of growth & healing. I understand that individuals are part of a much larger picture and because of that, my support considers both the individual & their environments.

You’re ready for real change. You’ve tried deep breathing, you’ve tried taking bubble baths, and the self-help books. Maybe you’ve even tried therapy before, but while talking felt good, it didn’t create the change you were looking for. You feel stuck in cycles of self-criticism, triggered by memories of the past and overwhelmed with emotions. You’re juggling everything and feeling burnt out. Living like this is not working for you anymore, and you’re ready for real change.

Good therapy should result in real life changes, not just increased self-awareness in the therapy office. People are seeking understanding, and guidance. My best work comes when there is mutual respect and an openness to learning. Everyone feels better when they find out they are not 'crazy' and there is an explanation for what they are feeling and thinking. I tend to be active in my work, because people come because they want feedback, not silence. My style is eclectic, meaning I will use many techniques to reach the goal, and the challenge will extend past my office door.

There is an underground river in you. Inside that river, there is life and wisdom, but you aren’t always sure how to access it. You need space to drop down and into whatever you feel. You need space to honor the layers of your life. You may not feel like you have access to your own wisdom, but you do. Even your sorrow, your anger and your fear are part of your wise heart, and you can trust what is inside of you— even the pain.

I have been a child & adolescent therapist for 49yrs., & I enjoy my work greatly. I also work with parents who want advice and guidance about parenting skills. Children can change much faster than adults, and that is why I love working with young people. I try to support their strengths, encourage their creativity, relate to them with warmth and humor. I also work with parents with children, and with parents with teens if teens want me to. I like the challenge of connecting with both children and teens, ages 4 to 20. Connecting requires intuition and open-heartedness.
