Are you currently in a relationship where you're not happy but can't seem to get yourself to leave? Maybe you feel emotionally stuck or confused and have tried leaving only to return to the same unhappy relationship where nothing seems to change. On the other hand, you might feel that you keep entering into relationships in which you are treated poorly but can't figure out why. Perhaps you're dating and finding "the one" seems impossible. You feel sad and disappointed, no one seems to understand, and you don't know what else to do to make things better. I'm here to tell you that things can change and I am here to help!

Overwhelmed by all the options on here? Wondering whom you'll feel comfortable opening up to? Who will make therapy feel rewarding, even when it's painful. Who will have the expertise to help? I've scrolled here too. Personally, I value a therapist who is warm and engaging, who can support me and challenge me to grow at the same time. In my endorsements you can see how other therapists describe my style. I also value a therapist with true expertise–someone who really gets how your unhelpful thoughts and feelings work. My expertise is in anxiety. Lived experience made me curious about these disorders. I've studied them ever since.

It is tough times right now! People are struggling. I am here to give you the tools to feel better and to heal whatever you have gone through. I help people work through addiction recovery, anxiety, depression and difficult relationships. Having a strength-based approach that focuses on wellness and getting unstuck from repeating cycles is the approach I take. I work with anxiety, OCD, depression, addiction (alcohol, sexual, drug, spending, overeating, and work). I also work with chronic pain issues from a place of helping people express emotion. I do both in person and teleconferencing counseling at this time.

I work with adults and adolescents who are dealing with various psycho-social issues including depressive disorders, anxiety disorders, OCD, and trauma.

Do you ever feel like you're constantly playing catch-up? Like your to-do list mocks you with its ever-growing length? Does the pressure to meet expectations leave you feeling stressed and ashamed? You're not alone. Many people grapple with executive dysfunction, often leading to a cycle of self-blame and paralysis. It can feel like your brain operates on a different schedule, making it frustrating to navigate a world built for a different kind of mind. But here's the thing: you are not broken. You are worthy of love and success, just the way you are. I am a queer, anti-oppressive therapist who wants to find what works for you.

"Vulnerability sounds like truth and feels like courage. It's not always comfortable, but it's never weakness."--Brene Brown. Hi, I'm Lydia and I utilize a solution focused, mindfulness based approach to aid clients in exploring their authentic selves and behavioral patterns. Like a Phoenix, I believe individuals have the ability to rise from the ashes as renewed, stronger versions of themselves. Whether those ashes are from broken relationships, perpetual marital problems, crippling anxiety, career dissatisfaction or the aftermath of trauma, they have the ability to transform you.

If we are able to feel deeply understood and cared for in a consistent and supportive therapeutic relationship, positive change and growth may occur in a subtle and evolving process as a result of these conditions. In my role as a therapist, my work is to provide these conditions to the best of my ability. Therapy can provide a space in which a trusted other helps you to understand yourself more fully, as well as to consider the stories that you tell about yourself and your life. Such understanding allows us to contemplate how we may begin to believe in more helpful and truthful stories.

I offer a free initial consultation and have evening appointments. I am a believer in the individual's ability to heal and live a healthy and amazing life with an approach to therapy including compassion, humor, responsibility, and empathy. The client/therapist relationship is one of trust and communication while utilizing inner resources, which individuals and couples may not know they already have. I have been working as a counselor with individuals, couples, and groups for over 10 years and have extensive experience in the areas of childhood abuse, relationship issues, depression, trauma, anxiety, and personal growth.

I firmly believe that my clients are the authorities on their own lives, and my role is to equip them with the necessary tools and support to empower them in making significant life changes

Are you struggling to manage a pattern of uncomfortable emotions that stem from a difficult life situation you were unable to resolve? You may feel stuck and not yet able to understand the root cause of these emotional challenges, how they are impacting you and your relationships, or how to move forward in your life. You may even feel betrayed by those who have tried to help you. You are ready for a full mind-body-soul transformation. You need someone who can give you patient guidance to help you navigate healing. You deserve empathic understanding as you become the most bad-ass version of yourself. Let me humbly help you.

I work with adolescents and young adults from the age of 13 providing support in the areas of anxiety, family and school issues, depression, adjustment, authority, and other issues, which are faced in our changing world. I work closely with families from all background, schools, and community to support clients as they gently work through their areas of healing. Also, as an experienced clinician with broad skills in adjustment, I understand the challenges individuals/families face in transition. As your therapist, I will provide deep support and tools for your emotional health and growth.

Therapies that focus on brain change, heal symptoms more rapidly and get to the deepest part of the issue. I work from a positive perspective that is both challenging and supportive simultaneously. Some people come to me to grow in areas of peak performance and others come to break free from the gridlock they experience in their significant relationships. Many people are stuck in a depressive or anxious cycle that doesn't allow them to be authentic in how they engage the world. I have been a therapist for over 20 years and I love it.

I'm a licensed clinical psychologist and focus on treating adults, teens, and couples. My specialty now includes the treatment of Eating Disorders in addition to mood and anxiety disorders, anger management, and grief/loss recovery work. I also work with individuals struggling with relationship, career, and identity issues. While working with clients, I combine interpersonal, cognitive-behavioral, and system approaches to help change unhealthy patterns in emotions, thoughts, and relationships. I find that good therapy includes the discovery and building of strengths and opportunities for change. My work is a rare privilege. I enjoy it immensely!

Psychology works because it is a way to help people understand their problems and correct or change so that they can live more healthy or satisfying lives. Many people come for therapy if they are experiencing problems with depression, anxiety or relationship issues. Some other common problems that I help treat are problems with work injuries, sleep, weight, stress, trauma, and sexual problems. These problems can be greatly helped through therapy. I employ an eclectic approach to therapy, meeting each individual’s needs rather than using one form of treatment.

Approaching Authenticity: Life presents challenges that can feel like barriers to our true selves. Whether struggling to cope with major life changes, managing feelings, substance abuse issues, sense of self, relationships, or "feeling OK in my own skin," we can all benefit from a therapeutic relationship. My role is to help people find perspective, empower people to take steps to make positive change, and provide a safe, supportive atmosphere that is free of judgment. My approach is client-centered, strength-perspective, and I work to create a therapeutic relationship in which people can discover and take actions appropriate to improve one's life.
