I am a psychologist candidate who provides individual psychotherapy and to adolescents and adults. Some areas of specialization I have are working with eating disorders, general issues with food and body image, the LGBTQ+ community, women's issues, depression, and anxiety.

I am a strong supporter of body positivity, and am a Health at Every Size (HAES) clinician.

Have you ever been labeled as ‘too sensitive,’ ‘too emotional,’ or ‘too needy’ by someone in your life? Do you feel like you have to hide parts of yourself to receive love and acceptance? Do you feel drained from the everyday experience of living with your identity? If any of this sounds familiar, welcome. You are in the right place. However you are arriving here, know that the essence of your wholeness lies within you, waiting to be discovered.

If you're looking to heal past trauma, mend broken relationships, sort through major life transitions, or just get some general support, I am here to help. I believe that regardless of who you are, what you've done, or what you've been through, you deserve to feel good in your life, and you can feel good. Using the strengths you already have, and tools you may not yet have, together we will find a way forward. My clients say I have a calming presence, and that they feel seen, heard, and understood in sessions.

Embarking on the path of healing and self-exploration is an act of daring. Perhaps the search comes from a place of despair or struggle, yet it is through this gateway of pain that we may find greater meaning and self-compassion. In the process, we may make a friend we have always longed for, ourselves. I would be honored to support your journey of self-discovery and change. I work with individuals, both adults and adolescents. I work with LGBTQIA+ and am adept at navigating issues of gender/sexuality. I am also certified to practice Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP)​, which can relieve distress and accelerate healing.

Hello there! I'm Rae. In my practice as a clinical psychologist, I offer a blend of psychotherapeutic support, LGBTQ+ wellness guidance, and consultative expertise, all carefully crafted to meet your individual journey. My practice is enriched by a diverse range of interests including self-identity exploration, the intricacies of human relationships, the embrace of neurodiversity, navigating trauma, managing existential angst, as well as tackling anxiety, depression, and fostering personal growth. My commitment is to foster an authentic and secure environment that allows you to honor your truest self.

I truly believe that, when open and ready, we have the ability to recognize, acknowledge, and heal from the challenging beliefs and experiences from our past that may be impacting our present. My goal as a therapist is to meet you wherever you are, fully and without judgment, to join you on your journey to a more whole and valued sense of life and self. I aim for our time together to be built on mutual trust and authenticity. I work with clients of all ages and utilize a variety of therapeutic modalities and holistic approaches based on what serves each individual best and aligns with their interests and values.

I believe that therapy is a collaborative process between therapist and client, and that by working together we can help you move toward understanding and healing. Your job is to be curious about yourself. Mine is to inspire and assist you in exploring the unknown, uncomfortable, and unfamiliar. I strive to kindly challenge the way people think, and to be challenged myself. I am honored when asked to be present in challenging times, and work to balance holding room for discomfort while helping you discover how to move forward. My ultimate goal is to help you heal by building upon our respect, honesty, and mindfulness.

You’re tired of feeling like thoughts about food and your body dictate how you spend your day. It feels like you cannot escape the voice in your head that tells you that you are not thin enough, you ate too much, and the most important thing about you is the way you look. The truth is - your body is not the problem. It never was. Our culture is structured to make us fit inside narrow constructs that oppress who we are. We will work toward body liberation. Body liberation is the freedom from social and political systems of oppression that designate certain bodies as more worthy, healthy, and desirable than others.

Life contains many joys and pleasures while also presenting discomfort and heartbreak. Fortunately, humans are incredibly resilient and have an amazing ability to overcome tremendous challenges – especially when we work together. I became a licensed psychologist because I want to create positive change in the world. I believe when we help one another we all become stronger. I provide individual therapy for professionals and students ages 18+ to address concerns including: anxiety, eating disorders/body image, depression, self-esteem, trauma, academic/professional stressors, ADHD, OCD, and more.

My intention is to create a powerful therapeutic relationship between myself and my clients. I know and have witnessed that struggling with sexuality issues can often lead to feelings of shame or embarrassment. I see our sexualities as one of the most diverse and unique parts of ourselves. I believe that difference does not equal disorder, and being "normal" is often not the goal. I am poly/open and kink knowledgeable and have experience in working with non-traditional relationship dynamics, LGBTQIA2+ issues, individuals and couples & families relationship issues.

Growth seekers, counselors (especially counselors in training), and those with loud inner critics are all good fits for my style. Some of my focus areas include adult ADHD, anxiety, stress, transitions, boundaries, body image, family relationships, attachment, codependency, and relationship issues. I am LGBTQIA+ allied and also love to work with folks from those communities. If you’re ready to grow, I’m ready to support you along the way. I am grateful and honored to have the opportunity to work with you and hear your story!

You know one thing for certain: you're ready for relief. You're eager to break free from the relentless barrage of critical thoughts. You're prepared to start feeling good enough, to find peace, and to embrace confidence and capability again. I'm here to help!
