My clients often come into therapy feeling some version of stuck: whether in a relationship, a perspective, or a pattern of behavior. My psychodynamic training has taught me it’s important to understand why this stuckness is happening, but how we manage our thoughts and feelings is equally important, so I like to use a blend of therapeutic modalities to tailor my approach to each client. I also love working with new and expecting fathers. It's common to experience a complex flood of emotions including anger, grief, and fear, and I find there is often great need for support during this significant phase of life transition.

Please reach out! I'm currently booking in person appointments for adults.
I’m here for you and your experience! I welcome your whole self, including the parts that hurt most, have been marginalized by dominant society, and are navigating change. You may be experiencing grief and loss around the death of a loved one, a memory loss diagnosis, the redefining of a role, grief over the climate, or a harm done to a family member. You may find yourself transitioning into caregiving, stepping away from work, or parenting - including grandparents who are returning to raise children. All of this may be resulting in exacerbated stress, depression, anxiety. I'm looking forward to supporting you.

I pull largely from my experiences with Buddhist Meditation and Psychodynamic Therapy. I typically begin by helping people with anxiety, depression and/or compulsive behaviors. As these begin to improve, some people want to move further into unconscious material related to attachment, trauma and shadow work. I also lead psychotherapy groups for those wanting to engage in emotional work with other growth-minded individuals (See below).

I specialize in helping people who may appear to others as high-functioning, high-achievers, who have it “all together," but on the inside they experience suffering. The people I work with often attempt to suppress their emotions and needs in order to achieve success in their career, college, relationships, and other life goals. They are usually achievement-oriented, detail-focused, driven, ambitious, and place high standards on themselves and others. Although their qualities may help with pushing through struggles to achieve success, limiting emotional expression can result in long-term negative effects.

I work with children who are struggling with big feelings and big behaviors. Maybe your child has experienced a loss, a change in family structure or maybe you're not sure what is at the root of your child's struggles. Together, we will work closely to understand the needs that lie beneath your child's behavior.

Hi! I'm Riley, and I strive to elevate my client’s personal power by supporting them in taking an active role in their treatment, helping them connect with their knowledge of self, and supporting their decisions surrounding their mental health. Much of my experience is from working with adults who hold a wide array of different backgrounds and identities. However, I am especially passionate about working with LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent populations and enjoy helping people navigate transitions and explore identity.

I am here to support you finding your way through overwhelm, grief, trauma, and uncertainty.

We all have our own story, the things that make us unique in the tapestry of human experiences. What motivates me in counseling people is how we cope with trauma, overcome adversity, and our resilience in the face of difficult circumstances. Finding a way to create meaning, and live a full authentic life is central to my goals in supporting clients. I focus on existential and feminist frameworks to support clients in developing their sense of worth and purpose in life. Working with me we will address attachment and relational dynamics, boundaries and the patterns present in your life that may be keeping you “stuck.”

I work with neurodivergent individuals and families. I work with those seeking clarity and a way forward. I am currently accepting new clients for psychological evaluation (including for autism, ADHD, giftedness, learning disabilities, and more) and Independent Educational Evaluations (IEE). I offer a compassionate and integrated approach. My psychological evaluations result in a comprehensive psychological report, and I aim to "tell the story" of an individual rather than simply assign a label. All evaluations yield individualized recommendations, and I provide client-centered, in-depth feedback sessions aimed at empowerment.

I believe in trying to make this world we live in a more human place. My dream is to live in a world where each person feels seen, understood and celebrated. For me as a counselor this means I work to demystify the counseling process and make it transparent, understandable and safe. I believe everyone has a desire to live their best life and I start from this assumption as I seek to help people to avoid feeling judged or blamed and instead seek a fuller understanding of what's getting in their way. My approach is helpful for those who are struggling with difficult emotions and thoughts and being the best version of themselves.
