I help teens and adults longing to find meaning out of difficult life experiences they've faced.
Life can be full of stressful and challenging times, leaving you feeling disconnected, hopeless, and broken. These feelings can lead to unhelpful thought patterns and feeling "stuck" in the same cycles. Maybe you've tried to break free from them on your own, but feel discouraged or don't know how to move forward. My goal is to help you feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood. If you've encountered loss, gone through a traumatic experience, or been struggling with anxiety or depression, I am here to help you feel more restored and connected to those around you.

I have over 14 years of experience working with adults and children who have experienced trauma & attachment disruptions.
Hello! I'm Charissa. Whatever your reasons for seeking therapy, I believe that there is hope for every individual to experience healing and growth.

My goal is to help clients rebuild trust and safety within themselves, so that they can tap into the resiliency we are all capable of. I specialize in working with individuals and families who have experienced trauma, loss, and attachment ruptures. I work to help individuals process religious trauma and work on boundary setting in all their relationships.

I'm very skilled when treating individual adults.
I believe in personalized therapy that reduces symptoms, enhances personal wellness and reflects state-of-the-art scientific research and treatment methods. Many people are not sure if therapy is right for them. These individuals are often drawn to my approach because I focus on personal empowerment, encourage questions about the process, and develop very unique and collaborative treatment plans.

I work with most ages— adults, children, and teens.
It would be nice if life moved smoothly along a path that we choose, but life is more complex. We have experiences, often not of our choosing, that can harm, confuse, or trouble us. These experiences can form obstacles and even de-rail us. When we can be heard, deeply heard, we can experience an opportunity to heal and move beyond many obstacles. My practice provides a safe place in which clients can find ways to tap into their inner strengths. My approach is client-centered and seeks to use forms of therapy that work best for you.
