Have you done years of talk therapy, understood your own story, yet still feel stuck in patterns you can't shift?

I believe the role of a therapist is in helping clients to connect with their innate wisdom and resilience. If you have found yourself struggling with interpersonal relationships, anxiety, or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you then I may be able to support you in making the changes you desire in your life. If you are struggling with grief (from loss or the kind that comes with changes we do not choose for ourselves) then I can help you to navigate the accompanying emotions. I specialize in working with individuals who have experienced trauma, adverse childhood events, and perinatal mood changes.

Choosing a therapist is tough, so here's how I differ from other therapists. I work best with people who feel stuck in patterns they understand intellectually but still can't seem to change emotionally. Many of my clients are dealing with trauma, anxiety, OCD, eating disorders, chronic depression, relationship issues, or painful inner conflict. I find that combining parts work, hypnotherapy, and a depth-oriented approach helps people not only understand and relate to their issues, but provides emotional relief and self-acceptance. Together, we'll work towards inner peace, and a more compassionate relationship with yourself.

I am so grateful you are here! I support adult individuals process different types of grief related to but not limited to death, childhood, sexual, spiritual and relational bereavement.
I believe that unresolved grief can lead to unhelpful coping skills such as depression, anxiety, and damaging relationships. Through growth and development you will experience a fuller life and your feelings will start to be manageable. You will imagine going through life with a clear sense of self and purpose. You will learn that you are worthy. As Carl Rogers said "The curious paradox is when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change".

Healthy relationships begin with you. When you have a full plate you may feel irritable and exhausted and that you and your relationships need some TLC. You may feel resentful and/or angry and you may not know why or you may be unclear about what to do about it. You may be listening and living your life according to your inner critic, which can lead to low self-esteem, loneliness, and never feeling good enough instead of loving yourself and having the freedom to be who you are truly meant to be. Your ways of coping may be keeping you hanging on by a thread, but they also may be causing you pain and not addressing underlying forces.

I work with deeply caring women - often mothers or eldest daughters - who make sure everyone else' cup is full while her own is running on empty. You may carry fear or guilt around taking up space or asking for help, having been told (or shown) that you come last. There might even be a belief that caring for yourself is 'selfish' and that gritting through the hard times is what it means to be strong. But what if you didn't have to push so hard? What if you got to take up space? What if you get to rest and be cared for without having to earn it?

Not afraid of humor as well as difficult feelings, I work with people who want to get back in touch with what's most important to them to feel more connected to themselves and others. I love helping people identify their "Why bother?" such as "Why bother with trying to work less, exercise more, drink less, or feel feelings more?" Negative thinking, anxiety, and increased drinking and other behaviors can be invitations to re-evaluate if you're pursuing the kind of life you desire. I'm here to help you get to the root of symptoms, understand and get past avoidance, clarify values, and celebrate progress :)

Lesbian Therapists
What is lesbian-affirming therapy?
Lesbian-affirming therapy is a type of mental health support that fully affirms and reflects a client's lesbian identity. It is rooted in acceptance and does not attempt to change or question an individual's sexual orientation. In this type of therapy, clients work with a therapist who understands the unique experiences of lesbian women. This support is especially important, as research shows that lesbian individuals face higher rates of anxiety, depression, and other mental health challenges compared to heterosexual populations. Lesbian-affirming therapy acknowledges that lesbian individuals may encounter specific stressors—such as coming out challenges, family rejection, workplace discrimination, and minority stress—that require specialized understanding and intervention. Lesbian-affirming therapists often work with clients across all age groups, from adolescents navigating their emerging identity to adults and older individuals addressing life transitions and relationship concerns. Many therapists also provide couples therapy for lesbian partners, helping them navigate relationship dynamics, communication challenges, or external stressors that may impact their relationship. It is important to note that therapists provide talk therapy and counseling services but do not prescribe medication—if medication is needed for conditions like depression or anxiety, they will coordinate care with a psychiatrist or primary care physician who can provide psychiatric medication management alongside therapeutic support.
Why should I see a lesbian therapist?
Some clients prefer to work with lesbian therapists who may bring personal lived experience to the therapeutic relationship. Choosing to work with a lesbian therapist can offer a deeper sense of connection, comfort, and shared understanding. A therapist who identifies as lesbian may require clients to give less background explanation—whether it’s about navigating romantic relationships, feeling unseen in certain spaces, or processing the impact of past relationship challenges. However, a non-lesbian therapist with strong training and a sincere commitment to LGBTQ+ affirmation can be equally effective. The most important factor is finding a therapist who respects your identity and fosters trust, safety, and understanding. However, a non-lesbian therapist with strong training and a sincere commitment to LGBTQ+ affirmation can be equally effective. The most important factor is finding a therapist who respects your identity and fosters trust, safety, and understanding. Additionally, many lesbian-affirming therapists can connect clients to other providers or community-based resources—such as bisexual support groups or LGBTQ+ organizations—that offer additional affirming spaces for connection.
How do I find a lesbian therapist?
The Psychology Today online directory is a helpful tool for finding lesbian-affirming therapists. You can use search filters to identify therapists who specialize in LGBTQ+ care and work specifically with bisexual clients. You can also filter by clinical specialties, therapeutic approaches, accepted insurance, session costs, and languages spoken to find the right fit. Look for profiles where therapists explicitly mention working with lesbian clients, or where they describe their approach as identity-affirming, inclusive, or trauma-informed. Many providers will also list their own identities, which may help you find someone with shared lived experience if that is important to you. You can also look for credentials or continuing education in areas such as LGBTQ+ mental health, trauma-informed care, and intersectionality.
