Maybe you are feeling exhausted, disconnected, or like you have lost pieces of yourself. Maybe you are excited about becoming a parent but also grieving how much has changed. Or maybe your relationships feel strained and you are unsure how to bridge the gap. Whatever you are carrying, you do not have to hold it alone. Hi, I’m Riley. I specialize in helping people through life transitions, especially becoming a new parents. I also enjoy working with individuals and couples navigating relationships. These shifts can bring joy, but also stress, loneliness, and a sense of feeling stuck. I am here to support you through it.
My approach is relational and depth oriented. Together, we will look at the patterns in your life and relationships and uncover what is really at the root of your struggles. Our work will focus on healing, clarity, and meaningful growth. I bring a trauma informed, diversity aware, and sex positive perspective to therapy, while staying grounded in research.
Each client I work with is unique. Our sessions will not follow a script, they will follow you. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and truly seen. Let’s explore what is holding you back and take steps toward the life and relationships you want.
