You've come a long way. You're doing it. You're killing it at work or at school. You always have. But somehow, those old ways of thinking and feeling about yourself have followed despite your successes. At work, and with your friends, it looks like you have it all together. If anything, you're the first to lend a hand to others, even when you are completely running on empty. But something is missing, and its gnawing at you. You don't know what you want or need most of the time. We can figure that out together. We help patients find the permission they need to give themselves in order to live their most full, most authentic lives.
We can help you slow down, sort through the pressure, and figure out how the hell to take care of yourself. We provide affirmative, supportive psychotherapy and counseling to women and LGBTQIA+/GSM identified folks who feel lost and unsatisfied, and want a deeper understanding of themselves and their relationships.
We are not distant, blank faced analysts, but instead are responsive, affirmative, and collaborative in our approach. Together, we will untangle the knots created by anxiety, trauma, family and relationship problems that leave you feeling disconnected from yourself, your body, and your emotions.

We customize our approach based on the goals of each patient we serve, integrating mind and body inclusive, trauma informed approaches within an affirmative, relational frame. Instead of working toward normalcy (which... who can define, anyway?), we work with our patients toward finding freedom and building the capacity to locate, experience, and embody their intuition and their truest selves.
