Hi there, I’m Brianna. I’m deeply passionate about working with trauma as well as the sacred intersectionality of multiple identities. I’m a true believer in our innate capacity to heal and find a soul-ful, fulfilling life. I view my role as a therapist as a facilitator to help guide you to deeper places inside yourself that might be dormant or lacking liveliness. Through this work, our relationship with the world and others becomes energized as we awaken and open paths within that block our capacity to fully lean into our life. My work is to tend to the heart. My approach is warm, intentional, and relaxed.

Our experiences impact who we are, the positive ones stay with us, but the negative ones stay with us as well. The relationships we have had throughout our lives are also deeply influential in shaping who we are and how we feel and behave in our current environment. Therapy gives us a deeper understanding of who we are and how our relationships and experiences have impacted us. Through a deeper awareness we have more control over how we'd like to show up in our lives. I specialize in Eating Disorders, Trauma, PTSD, ASD, anxiety and depression.

Hi there, I'm Sam. On the journey of discovering how to live a life that is authentically ours, sometimes we get stuck. We worry that we’ve lost the way, that the destination we aim for is beyond reach, or we feel alone. You don’t have to walk this path alone. I work collaboratively with clients whose journeys have been interrupted by depression, anxiety, panic, trauma, substance use, and more to find a new path forward. I aim to create a space where there is room for hope in the moments that feel most difficult, where we can set aside the shame imposed on you by the rest of the world, and talk about what really matters.

I work with individuals, couples and families to create meaningful & fulfilling relationships, improve connections, address conflict, and increase effective communication patterns. Therapy is an opportunity to learn about yourself and others. During session we will explore past and present experiences to gather information about your strengths, resiliency, and challenges. I offer a direct, creative and compassionate approach and nonjudgemental space to do some difficult, and at times, uncomfortable work. Integrating creativity allows us the chance to be playful as you try on new ways of doing things and have some fun with the process of getting to know a truer you.

My therapeutic approach is collaborative, empathetic, and person-centered. I primarily work with clients facing anxiety, depression, and trauma. Tailoring treatment to individual needs, I incorporate modalities like Psychodynamic therapy (talk) and EMDR. I believe exploring past traumas and attachments is key, as patterns formed in early life can hinder adult functioning.

If you feel overwhelmed by the state of the world, and find yourself thinking "A cloud of worry and criticism seems to follow me wherever I go.

I work with individuals who are experiencing anxiety, perfectionism, relationship difficulties, trauma and OCD, especially those feeling emotionally overwhelmed, having difficulty setting boundaries, feeling disconnected from themselves, and struggling with rescuing others. Most people come to my practice wanting to feel better. My belief is that exploring and nurturing our connection to ourselves and others is the pathway to feeling good. As a therapist, I collaborate with clients to foster self-connection through co-investigating one’s internal landscape of emotions, thoughts, beliefs, perspectives, intuitions, and imaginings.
