I’ve witnessed the therapeutic process help many people from all walks of life. When I say “help”, I mean the small changes that make the difference between feeling depressed, tired, lonely, and numb to feeling re-connected to yourself, your purpose, your sense of hope, and the people you love. The changes that lead you from worrying, obsessing, and “freaking out” everyday to every other day or week or month instead (your nervous system needs a break!) and gradually to a place of peace. The emotional, spiritual, and mental changes that will get you through the deep, difficult, and challenging periods of your life.

Are you bothered by constant worry, fear, nervousness or anxiety? Feeling down, depressed, hopeless or like life is always going wrong? Having difficulty focusing or concentrating and feeling like you are always on the move? Is procrastinating or always putting things off until the last minute something you struggle with? These are all a part of being human, and there is nothing wrong with you. Let me help you better how to understand these thoughts, and feelings and drop the struggle against them. I can help you better understand how you can change behaviors and live a better life, even with these thoughts and feelings.

Your life may have changed significantly in ways that you did not expect because of the pandemic. You had certain plans, goals, and dreams but now you are facing isolation, depression, and lack of motivation. Or you may be experiencing problems with relationships, finances, or substance abuse.

I have extensive experience in treating adolescents and adults experiencing complex trauma, relationship issues, and change of life transitions. In addition, issues around sexual orientation and identity issues in teens and adults are offered through my practice.

I was surprised to discover that Artificial Intelligence can reflect thoughts and feelings better than anyone I have ever worked with. It can also guide people through their inner landscape like an Internal Family Systems therapist. It is now possible to have an on-call IFS partner who is available 24/7 for free. I want to show you how to get the support you need to deal with life challenges. I do not charge for this service or for the groups I facilitate.

There is a popular Lao Tsu quote that says, "Knowing others is wisdom, but knowing yourself is enlightenment." Without intentionally reflecting and looking inwards it becomes difficult to stay present and even keeled. Using current evidenced based practices my goal is to help you rediscover yourself and alleviate some of the barriers like (but not limited to) depression, anxiety or intrusive thoughts, substance abuse, family/marital issues and anger problems that are keeping you from truly being present, knowing yourself, and investing fully into meaningful relationships with those around you.

You may be feeling ambivalent about therapy, wondering if you're ready to share uncomfortable or painful experiences. As a licensed clinical psychologist, my goal is to work collaboratively to understand these experiences through your lens. This allows for the opportunity to assist in developing new experiences that are meaningful to you. I engage in therapy with adults, couples, and adolescents. Specialties include relational difficulties, panic and anxiety, grief and loss, women's health, infertility, pregnancy, life transitions, trauma, post-traumatic growth and identity concerns.

Currently accepting new clients, and welcoming in-person, tele-health, and eco-therapy sessions. Are you struggling to overcome emotional pain, heal from past hurt or trauma, get “un-stuck”, and create positive changes? I understand what it feels like to feel stuck, to want something different, to know that what you are doing isn’t working and that there is a better way but being unable to let go of unhelpful habits, patterns, social constructs, and/or relationships that are keeping us there. Change is possible and is most possible when one decides they just can’t keep living this way anymore and something must give.

My role as a therapist is to provide a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment in which to explore the issues that create difficulties for individuals and families. Together we will strive to remove barriers, earn trust, and make you feel welcome. We will work together to examine the relationship between your thoughts, feelings and behaviors while identifying ways to improve coping skills, restore confidence, and make positive changes. I have worked in various settings including community mental health centers, schools, in homes, and remotely. I utilize a person-centered, psychodynamic approach to therapy.

Let's face it. Life is not always a beach. Parenting is the hardest job in the world. Relationships, no matter how good, take lots of work. My practice is designed to help people, whether they be children, adolescents or adults, better address the challenges facing them. Within the context of a therapeutic alliance, the healing takes place. The success of psychotherapy is always related to the match between client and therapist. If that match is a good one, the client will find him or herself in a caring and safe environment and able to explore how to more positively impact their world.

Dr. Takasawa’s is a skilled therapist and committed Christian who brings her professional interest and unique perspectives to issues involving relationships, life transitions, stress and anxiety, depression, and spiritual struggles.
