Many of my clients say that they "know" in their head that everything is not their fault or that they are a good person, but still there is a doubt that feels unshakeable. When we go through painful experiences or relationships, it sometimes teaches us to believe something limiting, negative and UNTRUE about ourselves. I want to find out what those beliefs are and what happened to convince you of them. Let’s discover what you truly believe! Any expression of gender, spirituality or identity will be affirmed, honored and respected here. I offer the most gentle trauma therapy I can by centering your needs in every moment.

Are you feeling stuck in your career, relationships, or life in general? Do you long for a life filled with purpose and hope? Our past experiences, addictions, self-deceptions, and everyday challenges can leave us feeling hopeless and disconnected from ourselves and our loved ones. Do you dream of a life worth living? Do you have goals and values you want to achieve? Do you aspire to live authentically, aligned with your core values? You know where you want to go but need guidance—a roadmap and the right tools. You need a partner to walk alongside you, cheer you on, hold you accountable, and explore ways you can help yourself.

Accepting new clients now. Life can be challenging, from finishing college, to simply handling adulthood, and navigating big changes in life, to realizing you’re not where you thought you’d be by now. Maybe you are not loving work or your relationships are failing. I have worked with people who have turned to alcohol, drugs, food, or self-injury to cope with these kinds of things. Others have shut down in the form of depression or paralyzing anxiety. When these ways of handling life’s stressors are not effective, there is help. I am so proud of you for taking the first steps and prioritizing your mental health.

Having someone to walk alongside you in your journey to psychological/emotional health can move you from surviving into thriving. Navigating life can be stressful, overwhelming, and at times painful. Dealing with difficulties like life transitions, stress, managing depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, or making seemingly impossibly difficult decisions, all the while trying to maintaining positive self-esteem and finding helpful ways to cope with life demands, is a really hard thing to do. Feeling close to the people we love can feel hard when we struggle to find the ability to be vulnerable in a tough world.

Hello and Welcome! I go by Dr. J! I seek to empower my clients by exploring how dynamics of power, privilege, and oppression have shaped their lives and/or resulted in marginalization, discrimination, and trauma. I greatly enjoy working with individuals who hold minoritized identities, particularly individuals and couples/polycules from the Q+BIPOC and Neurodivergent communities. Additionally, I enjoy working with athletes, and as a former collegiate athlete, I understand the unique internal and external pressures that athletes often face.

I work individuals and couples to help build better relationships and coping strategies for times of conflict and change. Having worked for several years with substance abuse groups along with anger management and family violence intervention, I have helped people of all ages to move beyond the negative self talk and low self esteem in order to be successful and thriving in their personal lives and relationships with others. I also offer EMDR to address trauma. Because I believe there is not a single way to deal with life, I like to meet my clients where they are in their own lives and help them to accomplish their personal goals.

No matter what brings you here, I'm glad you're here. Together, we will create a space where your whole, authentic self is welcomed, affirmed, and valued. You won't encounter judgment or someone telling you who you "should" be in this space. Instead, I believe that you are the expert on your own life and that your experiences, relationships, and traumas have profoundly shaped you.
