“If I had an hour to solve a problem, I’d spend 55 minutes thinking about the problem and five minutes thinking about the solutions." -- Albert Einstein. I also believe that the quality of the solution you generate is in direct proportion to your ability to identify the problem you hope to solve. My goal in therapy is to provide you with a safe space to tell your story, to sort through it, examine it and make peace with it. In this process, my hope is that you will be able to clarify your strengths, values and goals and identify practical solutions to overcoming barriers to living a full and meaning-centered life.

What’s your relationship with sex? With your body? With desire? Sometimes it’s what we're not talking about that we most need safe spaces to be able to. Sacred Life offers a courageous and compassionate space to be seen, heard and known. A place to explore your thoughts and feelings, your stories and your relationships, most importantly, your relationship with yourself. Sexual struggles can cause anxiety, depression, apathy, contempt, loneliness and isolation and can affect all areas of our wellbeing and our life.

Humans have the uncanny ability to tell ourselves stories that make us feel bad, stuck and unable to move forward. Somehow, it's easier for us to believe the worst version of what could be true than it is to see possibilities. In an attempt to belong, we may find ourselves shape-shifting to accommodate others- believing that someone other than who we are is the only way we can fit in. Over time, this can leave us with little certainty or confidence in our true, authentic voice.

I believe absolutely everyone has the ability to actualize the change they wish to see in their lives. And in that, there is hope. I want to offer you a safe, comfortable, judgement-free space to come as you are and begin your therapeutic journey. I am excited to collaborate with you on your goals, call out your strengths, and work with you, at your pace, towards a healthier you.

I believe everyone possesses a core self. And many times, we look up and realize we are not sure who we are, or how we lost our way. I have learned that to find your way back is to show up for yourself with love and acceptance for all your parts. We can truly transform when we allow someone to see and hear all of us. I am not afraid to sit in the depths of my client’s pain and create safety for the wide range of emotions that take up space in the room. Trauma is a part of many of our stories. Some people act out trauma in destructive ways, and I want to help unpack those experiences to help them reclaim their voices.

Accepting new clients - My mission is for each client to find their true self and voice and see that so many of our negative storylines and scripts are just programming we have picked up throughout our lives. My heart is to follow each client's lead on where he or she needs to go versus my own agenda and / or preferences. I believe that it is in allowing space for our experiences of our full humanity that we realize that at our most fundamental level our essence is actually good and true.

Honest self-reflection is the answer to so many of our problems. At many points throughout our lives, we learn to ease life’s burdens by shutting down, acting out, or running away in attempts to find relief. Even our most destructive coping strategies were often the best answers we could find at the time to manage our anxieties, our desires, and our pain. When we allow ourselves the opportunity to slow down and reflect on our lives, both past and present, we deepen our understanding and insight. And, as we explore our lives without moralizing and harshness, we develop genuine compassion and greater trust in ourselves.

Most of us have stories we tell ourselves, but often we don't ask ourselves what they are and how much of our stories are really true. Therapy offers a chance to look at the messages you've picked up along the way. Maybe there are pieces of your story you firmly stand behind and other parts that no longer make sense. I am committed to learning your story and your values, to helping you lean in on problems that make you feel stuck.

Do you find yourself completely exhausted at the end of each day from the effort it takes to go through the motions? Maybe you spend so much time focused on internal worries or past experiences that you feel disconnected from those around you or like life is passing you by. The clients I work with share these struggles. Despite being hard-working, successful, and invested in their relationships, they often feel as though their efforts are never enough. They just don't feel like themselves. Whether you've been feeling this way for a while or noticed a recent shift, you deserve to feel like yourself again.

Hi there, I'm Katie. I work with individuals and couples by helping them connect with themselves and others in new and meaningful ways. I view therapy as a mix of insight and action - a blend of curiosity, empathy, and mindfulness coupled with practicing how to show up differently, and sometimes, a (little) challenge.

Wow! There are a LOT of therapists, right? Unless the criteria were super narrow, this list is likely a little overwhelming—a lot of acronyms, a lot of jargon and friendly smiles; maybe fewer cardigans than expected. It’s a lot to consider. For many of us, scrolling through lists like this can feel like running in quicksand. And if you tend to be hard on yourself, it's all the more difficult. Whether you're navigating major life shifts, struggling but still trying to pin down why, or just at a loss and unsure of where/how to start, stick with it. It's OK to take your time. There are lots of people on here who can help.

In this high-achieving, fast-paced world, you may find yourself struggling with anxiety, burnout, and perfectionism. You might feel like finding balance in life is an impossible goal. Maybe your friends see you as someone who has it all together, but you feel like you're drowning in expectations and overwhelm. While our brains are so adaptive, sometimes we need to partner with someone who sees our struggle underneath the facade. If this sounds like you, I would love to help!

Hi there, I’m Betsy. I believe that while pain and loss are inescapable facets of the human experience, we can integrate them into the rest of our story when we connect to the safe presence of another. My guiding belief as a therapist is that you have an inner healing intelligence inside of you, and it’s our collaborative work to cultivate your relationship to them by processing old wounds and gently examining that which no longer serves you as you slowly come to reclaim your whole self. I work with adults who have experienced complex trauma, religious harm and deconstruction, end of life, and grief and loss.
