It takes a lot of courage to call a therapist you don't know. If you have been in therapy before you know how difficult it can be to tell your story again to a complete stranger. If you haven't been in therapy before you wonder how do you begin to trust someone even if they are a professional.
I can help you on your journey. I am a committed, caring psychotherapist who has worked with all kinds of emotional problems. I am ready to help you if you are ready to begin this important work.

I enjoy working jointly with children and families who have difficulties in their relationships and development, including those who have lived through traumatic events and experienced foster care and adoption. I believe all children and families have inherent strengths and the ability, with help, to make positive changes in their relationships. I can help parents understand their child’s behavior and developmental needs, enhance trust, and build secure attachments within the family. I want families to learn new skills, increase resilience, overcome obstacles, and thrive.

To quote Anne Lamott, "relationships are hard, hard, hard". I have over ten years of experience working with partnerships of all sorts; couples, siblings, adult children and parents, coworkers, etc. With a solution focused approach we'll work together to improve communication, increase emotional awareness and resilience in the hopes of creating healthy patterns in your day to day interactions. This work can be done within the relationship, or individually, and I am happy to support either of these options.

Therapy is fun. Therapy is creative. Therapy is a two-person job. Therapy is human connection. Therapy is uncomfortable. Therapy is finding your authenticity. Hi! I'm Josie and before I am a therapist, I am human, just like you. When I am not doing therapist things you will catch me being human with my pet pig and cats, or thrifting for goodies. I enjoy the little glimmers in life and hope to inspire you to do the same. It is my goal to work closely with you to structure therapy to be what you need. It is so important to connect with your therapist to build a trusting relationship. This will be our first step together.

I specialize in empowering late, self, and undiagnosed Autistic, AuDHD, ADHD, and other neurodivergent folx to better understand and work with their unique systems. I understand that society often overlooks your needs and that your disabilities can be invisible and misunderstood. The stress of managing everyday responsibilities - finding and maintaining employment, managing time and money, navigating social relationships, and caring for yourself and your home - can be overwhelming, often leading to burnout.

Using a client centered focus my desire is to provide you with a safe and welcoming space for you to work through your identified issues and foster an environment that utilizes your strengths and creates individual growth. Much of my career focus has been with adults that have severe and persistent mental illness that intersect with the justice system. I primarily worked with those transitioning out of the correctional setting and those still incarcerated. I have a strong belief in restorative justice offering compassion to both victims and survivors. I believe strongly in a mindful approach to our mental health.

It is my belief that even though people seem to differ in their inborn ability to handle life's stresses, their resiliency and sense of mastery can be cultivated. My therapeutic approach is to help my clients live a more hopeful and meaningful life. Being the oldest child of a Dutch family of Holocaust survivors, I "learned" how trauma and resiliency gets transmitted from one generation to the next. My fascination of learning how the body keeps the score, my interest in helping people be securely attached and engaged with each other all brought me to this exciting calling.

Imagine taking a moment to connect your feelings and thoughts. You sit down and take a moment to feel sensations in your body, your mood, and then work through the story you connect to it all. Often when seeking therapy we start by wanting to find solutions to get rid of unwanted thoughts, feelings, and behaviors - and this is good! Taking time to have caring and attentive guidance through this process is the role I take. As you share what you are going through either as an individual, partners, or family, I see that it is my job to come alongside to first listen and then guide the path to a different and preferred life.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with over 10 years of experience. I have a specialty in social justice themes and work heavily with the LGBTQ community, particularly with people of color. My approach to psychotherapy is warm, empathic, and compassionate. I treat each individual professionally and with respect and with acknowledgement of your individual strengths. I listen attentively to your thoughts and feelings, while also focusing on factors that are out of your conscious awareness (such as anxieties, values, and expectations) that can get expressed in relationships or through problematic patterns or symptoms.

I work with individuals and couples who find themselves trapped in patterns of emotion and behavior that keep them from moving forward in their lives and relationships. I don't think of problems as illnesses, but as learned ways of navigating the world that no longer work; almost every problem started out as a solution. Problems are solved by deeply confronting and changing the emotional learnings that make them seem inevitable. Change comes when people are able to unlearn old patterns and replace them with new ones. Transformative change uses the mind’s natural capacity to adapt and heal.

My work focuses on taking a collaborative approach with clients to identify external challenges, personal choices, and regain a sense of control and meaning in situations that can feel chaotic and overwhelming. This means being encouraged to identify personal strengths to find solutions instead of pathologizing difficulties. My approach often focuses on issues relating to social justice, intersecting oppressed identities, and navigating an authentic sense of identity development within a culture of privilege and oppression.

Hello! My name's Dr. Bohrer and I'm a psychologist, as well as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), and Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CADC level III). I began working in the field of psychology in 2007, so there's not much I haven't seen or heard. I believe therapy should be a place where you're free to share whatever you want but not forced to disclose anything until you're comfortable doing so. Therapy doesn't have to be an intimidating or daunting experience. I invite humor into therapy sessions and welcome you to do the same.

My work as a counselor is informed by somatics. As an acupuncturist trained in mindful somatic psychotherapy (Hakomi), studying the unconscious of the heart-mind through the body for the purpose of change is my life's work. Creativity, connection, strength, hope and purpose are available to us. Painful emotions, and negative beliefs can be released. Working in relationship we can transform obstacles into opportunity, and become more fully ourselves. I hold a deep respect for the healing intelligence of the body, and use dreamwork, parts work, energy awareness, and creative practices for healing.
