Feeling stuck? I work with adults to address anxiety, depression, significant transitions, codependency and relationship issues, and those struggling in maladaptive or counterproductive cycles or patterns. I believe the patterns in one's life will play out in therapy where they can be better understood and integrated into one’s current understanding of self through a collaborative approach, making sense of life in ways that are meaningful to you. Clients describe my style as calm, down-to-earth, non-judgmental yet challenging and my eclectic approach offers a truly individualized experience.

Are you unconventional in ways that make finding a therapeutic fit hard? Need tailored sessions? Hi, I'm Locke! Whether you want to use sessions as executive function coaching, silent brainspotting, or cathartic chats, I'll aim to make it possible. Rationality-valuing, polyamorous, & LGBTQ+ neurodivergents with complex trauma report the most relief working with me, but my trauma treatment through individual and couple's counseling can benefit all. Survivors, especially those who don't wish to talk about their trauma, are as accommodated as those who do. Welcome, creatives, philosophers, and insomniacs needing flexibility!

My approach is goal-oriented and integrated – pulling from multiple disciplines like Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, Dialectic Behavioral Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Solutions Focused Therapy. While keeping the individual’s needs in mind, an intentional humanistic approach remains at the forefront. Ultimately we’re going to need to have a meaningful relationship if we’re going to create change.

I help patients deal with blocks that prevent them having the best possible life and healthy, loving relationships. I use an empathetic, psychodynamic approach but also employ cognitive techniques - i.e. exercises during the session and homework. I want to help people notice and change their self-destructive patterns.
I also help artists uncover the roots of their struggles with motivation and self-doubt.

I believe in a genuine partnership between a therapist and client and aim to create a safe space full of empathy and curiosity. I find myself drawn to helping people find the tools to more successfully communicate with those they hold dear. There are many unique facets to our individual lives, and each piece has helped to create the person, people, and family that surrounds us today. Approaching therapy with a Marriage and Family Therapy background simply means that I view each individual as part of a whole system, with many influences at play. Family, chosen relationships, and society all affect the choices we make.

Coping with painful thoughts and feelings can be an overwhelming and lonely experience. However, you don’t have to manage these struggles alone. I specialize in treating adults with anxiety, OCD, and trauma, as well as working with caregivers struggling with anxiety, OCD, and trauma during pregnancy and the postpartum period. I approach treatment using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)—all of which are goal-oriented, evidence-based treatments.
