I work with a variety of individuals and couples seeking to navigate a myriad of challenges. Some are looking for short-term check-ins to manage the stresses of everyday life, while others are working through more difficult, long-term problems. Most are hoping to improve relationships, heal from grief and loss, and manage stress or anger. I utilize two approaches in my work: Post-structural Narrative and Relational Life Therapy (both resources-based rather than deficit-based approaches). I also integrate spirituality into my work.

Have you tried traditional talk therapy and still need something more? I work with people who want a different approach, partnering with nature, play, energy, and animal-assisted therapy to help support the healing journey. Clients come seeking support for various reasons but I specialize in trauma and attachment, parenting for children who are struggling, empowerment and self-esteem. Healing happens emotionally, spiritually, cognitively and physically through expressive arts, yoga, and partnering with nature and animals. I have a laid-back style and you will often find me dressed in sweats or yoga pants.

Many clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unseen. They are navigating anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, trauma, or the weight of daily stress. Others may be facing substance use concerns or the challenges of supporting a child with developmental differences. At the heart of their needs is often the same desire: to be understood, supported, and equipped with tools to move forward in a healthier way.

I work with highly-motivated adults who want to dig deep and heal. My style tends to be working with all parts of you who are able to show up, in order to better understand where big (and sometimes lonely and scary) emotions, thought patterns, and behaviors are coming from and how to move forward with these to live a life worth living

I serve children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) and their families, particularly those who are navigating the process of accessing services, supports, and funding for the first time, or who need updated documentation to reflect where their loved one is today.
Many families come to me at a turning point: a transition out of school, a change in living situation, a new service need, or a funding application that requires current adaptive behavior data. I help them get the documentation they need to move forward including systems navigation guidance.

Therapy with me is active, relational, and deeply human. I believe healing happens when we listen more closely to the body, emotions, imagination, and the parts of ourselves that may have been lost, neglected, or pushed aside. I do not see myself as the expert on your life. Instead, I see therapy as a collaborative space where we attend to the wisdom and meaning already unfolding within you. I bring curiosity, honesty, presence, and deep respect for your inner process. While I offer practical support for symptom relief, our work is oriented toward something deeper: reconnecting you with your own voice, center, and capacity to heal.

Tiffany brings warmth, curiosity, and genuine compassion to her work with clients.

Many common psychiatric symptoms are your body's way of saying things are out of balance. It doesn't mean you need meds, it means you need to learn how to get your body and brain back in balance so you can feel comfortable in your own skin, and become empowered to opt out of chronic illness and lost opportunities. I always say you deserve to feel your healthiest and absolute best all the time. I'd love to help you on your healing journey.

You may remember a time when you felt more connected to yourself—before the expectations, the code-switching, and the pressure to be “fine.” You deserve a space where all parts of you are seen, affirmed, and embraced as they come to life.
I’m Sam and I work with individuals who are exploring their identity (maybe for the first time ever!), navigating complex trauma, experiencing life transitions (that maybe feel all-consuming), exploring harmful religious experiences, and those curious about the way their lived experiences impact who they are and how they engage with the world.
