The human experience encompasses a diverse array of joys, challenges, & sacred moments. Personal & professional relationships may lack satisfaction, have room for improvement, or be a source of great suffering.

Thoughts, emotions, and behaviors can keep us from feeling or acting like our true selves. Whatever concerns brought you here, welcome! It’s a privilege to walk alongside you on the path toward healing and growth. I believe we are always arriving, and it’s never too late to take good care.

I am a creative and playful EMDR therapist who helps kids and adults with trauma and dissociation. Young people find my approach helps them work through their anger and worry with play and creative activities. Adults seeking relief from their worst experiences, like domestic violence and childhood abuse, get gentle and steady guidance into healing. I help people who have emotional outbursts, panic, dissociation, shutting down, and younger-than-their-age behavior. Families who want to be free of trauma, conflict, and worry will find a fun, caring, and accepting approach from me.

I'm an individual and family therapist, also a substance use disorder counselor. My education and 17 years' experience enables me to work with individuals as they recognize and manage the impact of their (or that of their loved ones) substance use on their world. Apart from SU issues, I also support clients navigating life transitions, recovering from loss, or experiencing conflicts within their network of interpersonal relationships. I especially enjoy working with individuals with difficulty managing moods (depression, anxiety, anger, etc.), developing and practicing a plan for positive change.

I implement effective psychotherapy methods to instill self-understanding and implementation of new attitudes and feelings towards life situations. It is essential to keep in mind that therapy is not a magic pill or a quick fix: therapy is a healing process that necessitates participation and investment from the client and the therapist. Health and wellness are a journey, not a destination, and I ask that you allow me to walk alongside you as you reach for your personal summit.

You may feel like you’re carrying more than other people can see. I work with people who feel overwhelmed by the depth or complexity of what they’re experiencing, even when they seem “fine” on the outside. My approach is depth-oriented, collaborative, and paced with care. Rather than pushing past difficult patterns, we work to understand them more fully, creating space for insight, nervous system integration, and meaningful change over time.

My name is Maury, and I specialize in trauma, anxiety, depression, addictions, and grief/loss. My therapeutic style is collaborative, exploratory, and deeply existential. In our work together, we check morality at the door - right and wrong have no business in our work together. My goal is to help you reconnect with your inner world, help you to tell the truth (to yourself) about your deeply complicated life and rediscover meaning. In our sessions, we bring to light the deeper questions that quietly shape how you live. What happened to you? What matters to you? What gives your life purpose? What are you REALLY afraid of?

You might be a parent looking for support for your child, or a young person wondering if therapy could help. Either way, you’re in the right place! I work with children and teens who feel deeply, and may be struggling with anxiety, big emotions, grief, or life changes. For kids, this can show up as meltdowns, worries, sleep issues, or physical complaints; for teens, it may look like stress, sadness, identity questions, or feeling misunderstood. Therapy is a space where feelings make sense, no one is “too much,” and growth happens at a steady, compassionate pace.

I see clients who are dealing with trauma, although it's not always obvious that past experiences are running the show. Many of my clients struggle with perfectionism, addiction, shame, boundaries, people-pleasing, self-worth, and feeling stuck. I am open and affirming of all identities and bodies, often working with communities I align with, such as queer, poly, ethical non-monogamy (ENM), and kink. I use a collaborative approach with lots of humor and raging against the machine (shame).

Secular and Non-Religious Therapists
What is a secular and non religious approach in therapy?
Secular or non-religious therapy is a theoretical orientation used by many therapists and describes a therapeutic approach that does not rely on any specific religious or faith-based beliefs in the therapeutic process. Secular counselors will often approach therapy with an emphasis on evidence-based practices, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients, instead of relying on religious practices, such as prayer or belief in God.

Is secular therapy primarily for non-religious people?
Both religious and non-religious individuals can benefit from secular therapy. People exploring their religious or spiritual beliefs may find it especially useful to work with a secular therapist who is unbiased toward any specific religion. While religious individuals might value the connection and familiarity of seeing a counselor who shares their beliefs, secular counseling can offer them the chance to develop coping skills independent of their religious practice, which can be beneficial in various aspects of their lives.

Can a secular approach to therapy help with religious trauma?
One major reason clients may seek a secular therapist is to process previous religious experiences, including religious trauma. Secular therapists can help clients manage symptoms of the trauma through practices such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). They can also encourage clients through talk therapy or psychodynamic approaches to explore the roots of their religious trauma. Since secular therapists do not have any predetermined religious beliefs, they can be particularly helpful for clients looking to explore their own religious beliefs following a history of religious trauma.

What does non religious marriage and premarital counseling involve?
Marriage and premarital counseling typically involves a couple meeting with a therapist to discuss topics such as planning for marriage, navigating a new marriage, addressing relationship challenges, and developing better communication and conflict resolution skills. Non-religious therapists assist couples in achieving these goals without adhering to specific religious beliefs or frameworks, often emphasizing inclusivity and non-judgment, especially for "nontraditional" couples. However, seeking couples therapy from a non-religious counselor does not mean religious topics are off-limits. In fact, non-religious couples from different religious backgrounds may benefit from a secular therapist who remains neutral toward the beliefs of each partner.
