Monday at 4:00pm available in person or online- Thursday at 3:00 in person or online ———-I’ve found that therapy is most powerful when there is a combination of traditional western methodology and eastern philosophy practices. Together, we’ll discuss who you are. I’ll form questions that provide insight into your systems, and patterns. We’ll discuss family of origin. Time and time again. We’ll talk about diet; we’ll talk about love. We’ll discuss death. Together we’ll uncover aspects of your human experience and award you the opportunity to look further inward.

Deciding to connect with a new therapist can feel quite vulnerable—and whether you're new to therapy, or whether you've been on your journey for some time, I commend your courage and I'm so glad you're here. Perhaps you've been feeling overwhelmed, stuck in unhelpful patterns, or maybe you hope to reconnect with yourself and those around you. Together, we can create a safe place to explore old wounds, inner processes, relationships, and lived experiences. Our work can foster a greater sense of peace, belonging, compassion, and understanding.

I am a warm and engaged therapist and bring a deep curiosity and playfulness as well as deep listening and feeling to our process. I have over 30 years of training and experience in the field of clinical and depth psychology. Whether you are an individual or couple, struggling with communication issues or reevaluating your relationship needs and history, I bring an engaged and informed perspective to our work together. I am extensively trained in early attachment, relational trauma, sexuality and intimacy and bring a compassionate collaborative presence to the therapeutic process.

Are you struggling to show up in the present? Do you ever feel 'haunted' by past experiences that foreclose your way toward the future you want? I have met such roadblocks myself and believe that building a healthy interpersonal relationship in therapy paves the road to unlocking your goals & desires. I have specialties working with queer women & femmes in addressing anxiety, t/Trauma processing & recovery, sexual assault, and identity exploration.

My name is Mallory and welcome to my profile! I like to see therapy as a way to learn about how our brain works and what changes you would like to make. I take a collaborative approach with my clients, we decide on a plan together that would effectively help them approach their goals. I like to give my clients skills to practice during the week in order to help them start to set routines that are helpful. I only offer telehealth services, which means you can bring your pet to give you support during your sessions!

Now Accepting New Patients. My therapeutic orientation is best described as a holistic and comprehensive approach to counseling. I find that developing insight into the nature of one's problems within the context of a collaborative therapeutic relationship, can lead to healthier relationships and a more satisfying life. I tailor my treatment approach to best fit the needs and desires of my clients. My hope is to help people recognize that life is a continual balance between stability and grow through acceptance and actualization.

Suffering is not evidence of failure. It is evidence of one thing... your humanity. We all suffer sometimes and we all deserve compassion and care simply because we're human. Coming to therapy can be scary. Even as you're reaching out to have a chance at a better experience in life, you want to know that who you are, and where you are now, will be respected and cared for. I believe good therapy can be both challenging and gentle, supportive and enlivening.

I work with people who have been deeply hurt and heartbroken. I work with those who have suffered loss and abandonment. I work with those who have learned to survive in the best ways they know how, but may be coming to a place where these survival skills just don't seem to be working anymore. I offer a safe space for you to begin where you are; even if you don't quite know exactly what it is that you need, we can explore that together.

My areas of expertise are working with adults, teens, relationships, & families looking to create authentic, lasting change. My style is collaborative, compassionate, directive, & fun. Hope is essential for Healing. Resilience is essential to Thrive. I can help you achieve both.

We are all greeted with moments where pause, pain, or a deep knowing for change calls us forward. This can be a very daunting and overwhelming experience - and responding to it takes courage! I am an individual and relationship therapist with specialized training in sex therapy and perinatal mental health. I believe in the body as a site of knowledge that houses the intuitive and seeks peace, pleasure, and belonging in its most authentic form. My work is dedicated to helping you get there.

From the outside it seems like you have it all together, so why aren't you content? Maybe it's work, your relationships, or something else you can't quite put your finger on. Maybe you're struggling with feelings of sadness, unfulfillment, or pain. Maybe you find it difficult to relax, be present, and are constantly looking forward to when you'll finally be happy. Whatever it is, it doesn't feel good, and it definitely doesn't have to be this way. In therapy, I will work to build a collaborative relationship where we can explore these feelings together, and help you to tap into a life that holds more meaning, ease, and fulfilment.

Are you your harshest critic? Do you find yourself annoyed about your sensitivity or the feelings that come up from time-to-time? Welcome. I work well with folks looking to lead a life with more honesty, flexibility, and hospitality for their emotional experience. By challenging black-and-white thinking, harsh narratives, and helping you with meaning making around your emotional experience and responses, therapy provides an opportunity allow you to connect better with yourself, and those in your relational orbit.

At times in our lives, sex and intimacy may not be a top priority. You might have a hard time expressing your desires, or knowing what those desires are in the first place! Does that resonate with you? If you’re in a relationship rut or you’ve simply never learned that sex is for YOUR pleasure, you might be feeling disconnected from your body. The root of these challenges is that sex is a skill, and society doesn’t teach us to hone in on our sexy, sensual side for our own benefit. When we struggle with sex or intimacy, we tend to go on struggling until it becomes overwhelming and we can’t avoid it any longer. Now, it’s time to grow.

My name is Vanessa and I'm so honored that you are considering me for your counseling journey. Therapy is highly effective with a compassionate therapist to walk by your side and encourage you on your path to improving your life. I offer unconditional positive regard, a non-judgmental approach, and will remind you the whole way of all the love you deserve. I've helped many different types of clients improve their relationships, create peaceful environments, replace negative thoughts with positive ones, overcome trauma, communicate better, and more. My primary specialties include Autism, ADHD, and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.

Are you struggling with your depression, anxiety, or emotional regulation? Are you at a place in your life where you are ready for change? Maybe you need support as you transition careers or relationships? Or perhaps you want a safe space to be heard and seen. If so, then we would be a great fit for therapy! There is nothing more rewarding to me than seeing the people I work alongside, grow into healthier versions of themselves. Our therapeutic environment will be a safe space for you, with plenty of validation, support, and growth. Let’s get you off of auto pilot and back to the here and now.

I work with people who often feel a lack of connection with their life and what connection they do have doesn't always feel authentic or free in their expression. This can show up in diagnosis and symptoms such as anxiety, depression, OCD, dissociation, difficulty managing ADHD, and complex trauma. Many of my clients have experienced some kind of loss at an early age through either death, illness/hospitalization, divorce, or other means. Whatever kind of loss they experienced it may have resulted in a form of early parentification ie. a lot of independence and responsibility at a very young age.

I know that reaching out for therapy can be so intimidating, especially with issues related to sexuality. You may be looking to step into a more authentic versions of yourself or you may be dealing with relationship struggles. You may have felt stuck for some time or are just beginning to question what doesn't feel right. Together, we can embrace the challenges of life's struggles and work towards your dreams and goals. I am an identity affirming therapist who especially loves working with people who are queer, BIPOC, neurodivergent, disabled, or somehow 'othered' by society.
