I’ve always believed that there is an art to doing therapy. For me, that’s about balancing courageous authenticity, a strong clinical lens, direct feedback, and a strength based approach that empowers people to be real about their areas of growth. I have several modalities that I draw upon in my work - which include Attachment Based Family Therapy, EMDR Therapy, Expressive Arts Therapy and Narrative Therapy with a focus on emotional patterns. At the core, it’s all about love. I work to restore any relationship, be it with yourself or another, that is no longer led from the heart.

Feeling the joy of being a new mom or dad, but also the stress this major life change is having on your daily life, identity, and relationship? It's common to feel disconnected from yourself and your partner when you become parents. But you can have the joys of being a parent and have a grounded, fulfilling partnership & intimate relationship.
Are you in your late teens or early twenties and feel like you're supposed to know how to be an adult, but haven't really figured out what that even means? Loving your newfound freedom, but also feeling a bit lost? I can help you navigate this confusing time as you transition to adulthood.

Chris Doorley, AMFT (DoorleyTherapy on the web) specializes in Anxiety, Sleep issues, Burnout, chronic Stress and ADHD. Therapy with Chris is about identifying and supporting your individual needs. His approach draws from Buddhist Psychology, awareness practices (like Gestalt), and Jungian myth-archetypes to provide support for your entire Self. In Chris's 9 years of clinical, graduate-level and pre-clinical work, he's seen that though we all share common suffering, it hits each of us uniquely. If you feel your life has begun to show you more "obstacle" than "flow", send an email or give a call— next-day intakes are available.

Is it time to take a step towards changing those old Self limiting patterns? Those preoccupying thoughts; those intense feelings; those annoying behaviours. Do you want to learn something new about yourself? Depression; anxiety; traumatic stress reactions, whether you are a child, parent, couple or individual, limit the capacity to enjoy Life. Within a therapeutic relationship of compassion, kind attention and patient nudging to risk change, you can create space for yourself, to develop and cultivate new skills. To develop the fortitude of resilience and a more fulfilling Life. Wishing you well.

I believe we all have rich, inner worlds fueled by confidence, compassion and curiosity. When trauma or early relationship disturbances disconnect us from this, symptoms of depression or anxiety arise. My goal is to hear your story, honing in on the gems that are buried there to guide you back to the vibrance of your core self.
Most of my clients want to live with more connectedness, confidence, courage, clarity and playfulness in their lives. I tailor my approach for each client to bring these qualities back into their lives.

I work across many populations but the common thread is the desire to make change in our understanding of ourselves, who we draw to us in our relationships and how we can feel differently. I am striving to help people uncover and re-ignite connection with themselves or with their partner. Therapy can be difficult, and an empathetic, non-judgmental space is important to progress.

Therapy with me is collaborative, warm, and grounded in a genuine curiosity about who you are. I bring humor when it fits and create space for you to show up authentically—not as someone who needs to be fixed, but as someone navigating real challenges anchored in your life's context. I encourage everyone I work with to embrace the unique opportunity that therapy offers to show up without fear of judgement. It is your place to drop in and experiment with the possibility of being fully seen while wrestling with life's challenges and questions.

I provide psychotherapy to clients ranging from young children to older adults with a wide range of issues. At some point, in most of our lives, we experience difficulty, turmoil, and/or pain in some aspect(s) of our lives; emotionally, psychologically, in relationships, or coping. I do my best to connect with and understand the people I work with on many levels. Together we identify and explore the patterns of adaptation which are no longer effective and contribute to pain and suffering. With over 30 years in practice, I have been humbled. Real change, however defined, often takes time, attention and care.

I love therapy!
I'm so grateful this profession exists and that I can help clients take the next steps in bringing more choice and satisfaction in their world. My first therapist improved life immensely over 20 years ago and I hope to be able to share some possibilities with you.
Life changes can bring up unexpected questions.
Retirement, an empty nest, the reality of illness and becoming a caregiver sooner than expected will invite conversations about what to do next.
Together we address the strengths you’ve built over time and the places where old ways of relating require an update.

If you are reading this now, you may be struggling with feelings or experiences that have become hard to bear and even understand. You may feel alone and as though no one seems to really get what you are going through. It may be some immediate situation or transition in life that feels extra hard to navigate, or some long-standing grief or pattern in relationships that seems to have a hold on you. You may have symptoms such as anxiety or depression, perhaps with less than optimal means of coping. Psychotherapy can help you understand and change.

My focus is on relationships, the relationships we have with ourselves and others, and what is blocking them from feeling joy. I work with individuals and couples primarily focusing on the communication styles and how to improve upon them. I work with the hope of each relationship eventually finding different ways to cope, deepen, and advance into something different and rewarding. I feel all of our experiences in life have led to this moment. Whether the experience was a good one, or a bad one, they have informed our decisions about how to move forward.

I love working with young adults by exploring identity, trauma, and relationships. My clients often identify a critical self-view, which noticeably ripples to other areas of life. Our work together involves curiosity about recurring thoughts, feelings, beliefs, & behaviors, and empathically exploring the origin of these patterns. I don’t shy away from big questions and offer a mix of depth and insight work. With authenticity and gentle challenges to negative self-narratives, we build insight and understanding. My clients begin to experience more self-compassion and less shame, leading to resilience and more fulfilling connections.

Your relationship has turned sour, leaving you heartbroken, confused, and emotionally drained. Maybe the relationship just ended, or maybe you’re stuck in the painful limbo of deciding whether to stay or go. You’re replaying conversations, second-guessing yourself, and feeling the ache of loneliness – even if you’re not alone. You think about what life might look like if you break up, but the sadness, anger, anxiety, and fear of the unknown feel overwhelming. You wonder if you’ll ever have clarity and feel like yourself again.
Please note, I only see adult individuals. No couples.

I am a Marriage and Family Therapist working with individuals and couples to help them transform their inner and relational conflicts into opportunities for growth and life change.

In my practice, I use approaches like EMDR, psychodynamic, Jungian depth, and Somatic therapies to help you transform your inner and relational conflicts into opportunities for growth and life change.

My specialties are Grief/Loss and Divorce. I use a combination of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy, and Client centered techniques. If indicated, I like to have your sessions take place in nature. My life has taken me from experience, to study, and now to the service of others who are suffering as a result of Grief/loss and/or divorce. You may not believe it now, but these life traumas can act as a force that helps you awaken into a more conscious and self actualized human being.
