Sleep or Insomnia Therapists in 21211

Currently Accepting New Clients. I believe in an individualized, collaborative, and an empowered approach to treatment. Therapy is your time to focus on your thoughts, behaviors, your very important self needs, and your goals in a caring and non-judgmental environment. Additional areas of exploration are health and wellness, including managing any potential medical needs, such as a particular medical issue, stress, sleep, exercise, and diet; as well as addressing any concerns about your mood, social relationships, life adjustments, and/or any other self-identified needs.

I view the therapeutic relationship as a site of healing, growth, and change. Taking a collaborative approach, I create a warm, grounded, and nonjudgmental space where we can explore aspects of your life that are calling to your attention. We'll work to identify places you’re feeling stuck, draw connections between past and present, and unearth the wisdom and healing potential within you. Along the way, we'll consider the stories you carry, your somatic experience, and whatever arises for you in the moment, all in service of coming into deeper relationship with yourself.

I have a collaborative and integrative approach to therapy that builds on each individual's inherent strengths, respecting self-determination, and being mindful of the impact of intersectional identities on mental health. I work to provide affirming and generative care with warmth and humor.

I enjoy working with all ages, and specialize in issues of anxiety, communication, improving mood, identity, and increasing self-compassion and self-esteem. I know importance of establishing a trusting therapeutic relationship, and begin with individuals by building that rapport.

Therapy with me will provide a safe, warm, nonjudgmental, identity-affirming space where you will feel fully heard and understood. Within an anti-oppressive, trauma-centered framework we will explore how past and present experiences have shaped the distress, anxiety, anger, or hopelessness you may be carrying. We will identify the ways you have adapted to these experiences and how this may be contributing to the stress/trauma held in your brain and body and carried into your relationships. I will support and challenge you to grow and heal from this.

I currently have a waitlist. I believe therapy is a soft landing place where you feel seen, express and process emotions, and develop the tools to live a liberated life. Life can present a host of challenges that may make it difficult for us to thrive but this does not have to be your truth. Many of these challenges may have even existed before you were born, which has been described as inter-generational trauma. My aim as a practitioner is to meet you where you are on your path to self discovery and healing. I use a Humanistic - Existential, and utilize techniques from CBT, ACT and Narrative therapy modalities.

Individuals come to therapy for a variety of reasons: coping with work/life balance, major life changes, depression, anxiety, or relationship issues to name a few. On top of dealing with every day life, I know finding a therapist can feel daunting, with that said, I’m proud of you for making it this far!

When looking for a therapist, a person or couple may be unsure of how therapy can help them. Therapy helps people respond more effectively and rationally to the challenges of work, relationships, and life. I work within a collaborative framework to help clients find emotional and practical solutions to improve relationships, achieve their goals, and attain emotional well-being and happiness.

I have experience and work with those that have undergone traumatic encounters. I believe that healing comes from addressing the traumas and confronting the difficulties that come from them, such as unhealthy boundaries and maladaptive coping. I utilize a mindfulness and strengths-based approach in addition to creating a stabilizing and safe environment to be able to process and deal with the emotions that result from the extremes of traumas that we experience. I tend to use action and coaching-oriented skills focusing on the behavioral aspects of management of stress and coping with the chronic impacts of trauma and relationships.

During stressful times, it's easy to lose your bearings and feel at sea. While family or friends can offer support, sometimes you need a different kind of help. That's when working with a therapist can make a difference. For close to two decades, I've been helping people restore hope and get back to feeling like themselves again.

I know that you have a "pretty good" life. Perhaps you have done some work in therapy before, and things are finally stable. Yet, you sometimes feel like you are playing a part, rather than embracing and expressing your authentic self. You may feel uncomfortable in your own skin, self-conscious, or like you are not "enough." You may struggle to find your authentic voice and honor your values in your relationships or career. Life circumstances, societal pressures, past trauma, depression, and anxiety can all create obstacles to experiencing inner peace, trust, and confidence.

Feeling scared and constantly on edge after a life-threatening event? Does it seem like worries are taking over your life? Are you feeling burnt out taking care of others? Perhaps you are a therapist feeling out of touch with why you ever wanted to do this. Maybe others see you as successful, but you secretly fear you will fall short of expectations (especially your own). Worry, anxiety, PTSD, burnout, or perfectionism have gotten in the way of living the life you want. You’ve lost touch with the things that bring you a sense of meaning and purpose. It’s not just you. Everyone gets stuck. I am here to help.

My hope is that in visiting this page you are on the first step of offering yourself a new approach to the challenges you are facing. It means a lot to be heard and no one likes to feel lonely or alone. That is the beauty I believe in the therapeutic process— a bond with an unbiased, non-judgmental person who listens. I aim to offer you just that! My belief is that caring for our mental health is vital in living well and asking for help is a part of that.

You are brave, curious and brilliant but feel like you are an imposter and never good enough. You have tried people pleasing and a relentless pursuit of self-improvement strategies but can’t shake off the feeling of not being worthy. You long for true belonging, confidence and to live your most authentic expression by releasing old patterns that no longer serve you. You are not alone. I believe that we all have inherent within us expansive wisdom, and capacity to heal. We can't always access our truest Self because of past trauma, societal pressures and habitual patterns that keep us disengaged from our true nature.

“The most important step a person can take. It’s not the first one, is it? It’s the next one. Always the next step.” – Brandon Sanderson. There's no question that first step can be a difficult one, and by looking at my profile you're already taking it, but the first step won't get your far unless you take the next one. Many of us are ready for the next step, but find ourselves with obstacles, either inside or outside of ourselves, that get in the way. Whatever your struggles or the path behind you, if you're ready to find the route ahead and put one foot in front of the other, I'm ready to support you along the way.

I'm kink/BDSM-affirming, sex and body-positive. I've worked w/artists, professionals, organizers/activists, students, and disabled individuals and couples. I am trained in Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples.

I offer individual therapy to adults. I have many years of experience working with survivors of trauma, abuse, and neglect. Other areas of clinical interest and expertise include depression, anxiety, grief and loss, difficult family systems, vicarious trauma, professional burnout, exploration of gender identity, and issues surrounding pregnancy (infertility, miscarriage, postpartum depression, etc.)
