Openings for new clients! I'm queer and I specialize in supporting LGBTQ+ and/or non-monogamous adults around trauma, family of origin issues, gender affirming care, and anxiety, including OCD. Before therapy, many of my clients think: Being in my head is stressful- there are things I'm afraid of talking about, or even thinking about. My past is still affecting me. Setting boundaries can feel really hard. Sometimes I have nightmares or flashbacks of things I've been through. If that sounds like you, I can help. Therapy can be a safe, non-judgmental space to make sense of your experiences and create meaningful change in your life.

You are feeling stuck, experiencing stress, depression, or anxiety, or simply overwhelmed with life. You feel bad about yourself, and you’re constantly depleted of energy. Your relationships with people who are important to you - such as your partner, children, other family members, or friends - are suffering, and you’re not able to assert the boundaries you need, to put yourself first, or to feel happy or in control. Perhaps you’re overwhelmed with stress related to identities that are important to you, such as your sexual identity, gender or gender identity, race, ethnicity, or religion. You know there must be another way.

I'm glad you're here. Confronting patterns that suppress your true values, needs, and desires in demanding systems and relationships is incredibly difficult. It is also the bravest and most commitment you can make to yourself. You may be here because of self doubt, identity confusion, people-pleasing, family conflict, perfectionism, body image issues, or burnout. My role as a therapist is creating a safe environment to hear you, see you, and empower you to live authentically. The therapeutic relationship needs to be strong for you to take risks and be nurtured with understanding, compassion, humor, and honesty.

If you're a female professional who seems fine on the outside, but is struggling beneath the surface, you are not alone. I work with women who despite their success and carefully curated self-care routines, are feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, and unsure of how to live up to the version of themselves everyone else sees. Using a gentle, encouraging approach, I offer a supportive space where you can begin to establish healthy boundaries, tame your people-pleasing tendencies, reframe negative thought patterns, and come to see your value in a new light.

Imagine a safe place to come as you are. I will help you to see you are enough. We start by loving what is and grow from there. I am a lifelong student of psychology, and a fellow work-in-progress. In my experience, secure relationships, self-care, healthy habits, and routines are foundational components of good mental health. I treat couples, individuals, and families as unique individuals with a systemic orientation. This means that I seek to learn each client's perspective and consider both the internal and external influences and relationships that may be impacting them.

We've all experienced the pain of feeling stuck-- in our relationships, in ways of thinking and feeling, in behaviors that don't serve us. I work to help people identify ineffective patterns, explore the issues that trouble them, and deal with the unexpected challenges that inevitably arise in life. This work involves exploration of the past, identifying where relationships and experiences overwhelmed us, exceeded our ability to cope and resulted in the creation of unhelpful beliefs and behaviors. Untangling, reframing and updating these patterns leads to a greater sense of harmony both internally and in relationship to others.

Online Therapists
Is online therapy as effective as in-person?
Numerous studies suggest that online therapy can be as effective as in-person therapy. However, further research is needed to determine if online therapy provides the same benefits across all client populations. Individuals with severe mental illnesses, such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, or those who may benefit from in-person check-ins, like those with eating disorders, may not experience the same level of benefit from online therapy. Nonetheless, the success of online therapy, much like in-person therapy, often hinges on the quality of the therapeutic relationship between the therapist and the client rather than the specific modality of therapy used.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of therapy conducted online?
One of the main advantages of online therapy is its convenience for both clients and therapists. It also allows clients who require specialized therapy to access a wider range of professionals than they could with only in-person sessions. Additionally, online therapy may be a more affordable option in some cases and often offers the same insurance benefits as in-person therapy. However, online therapy may not be suitable for everyone, especially those who value face-to-face interaction with a therapist. Therapists may find it more challenging to assess clients accurately in an online setting due to reduced nonverbal cues on camera. There is also the increased risk that disruptions caused by external factors, such as technology malfunctions, can hinder the therapy session. For these reasons, many therapists offer a "hybrid" therapeutic approach, alternating between seeing clients in-person and online.
Is online therapy suitable for children and adolescents?
Just like with adults, the accessibility and convenience of online therapy can greatly benefit children and adolescents. In fact, children and adolescents may be more accustomed to navigating online platforms than older adults, making online sessions feel more natural for them. Teens might also be interested in using additional online tools, such as therapist-recommended apps, as an adjunct to online therapy sessions. Apps for developing CBT skills, practicing mindfulness exercises, or tracking thoughts and moods can be helpful for teens receiving therapy. However, it's important to note that not all therapeutic modalities are well-suited to online therapy, especially those used with younger children. For example, play therapy, which helps younger children express their emotions, often requires in-person sessions to be fully effective.
Can I receive prescriptions and medication management with online therapy?
The ability for psychiatrists to prescribe medications through online therapy varies based on the medication and the states where the medical professional and client are located. While many prescribing regulations were relaxed during the COVID-19 pandemic, some states still enforce rules, especially concerning controlled substances, which may mandate an in-person visit before prescribing. Generally, however, medical professionals can prescribe non-controlled substances through online therapy sessions just as they do during in-person sessions.
