I provide a tailored therapy experience by utilizing a variety of evidence-based approaches, including CBT, acceptance and commitment therapy, exposure and response prevention, dialectical behavior therapy ( DBT), emotion-focused couples therapy, and the Gottman Method.
I work with individuals, couples, and families across multiple states (via telehealth) who are seeking support for various mental health challenges. Many of my clients have difficulties related to anxiety, depression, and past trauma that get in the way of enjoying life and thriving to their fullest potential. I also work with people who are diagnosed with OCD, schizophrenia/bipolar disorders, and related conditions. The foundation of my therapy is a collaborative relationship based on acceptance. I look beyond the mental health “condition” and seek to understand you as a person, influenced by your identities and past experiences.

They might enjoy gaming, art, or sensory activities. Many are neurodivergent teens or adults navigating ADHD, autism, emotional sensitivity, or executive-function challenges while managing school, work, relationships, etc. Some may be LGBTQ and having difficulty navigating their sexuality or relationships.

I'm drawn to Robert Frost's quote "the best way out is always through." It captures a sense of deep suffering and illustrates the type of relief that the process of therapy can bring. As a psychotherapist, I walk beside you on that journey. I welcome individuals of all identities looking to work on a wide range of issues but have particular expertise in the areas of addiction, grief, and trauma. I love doing this work and bring a lot of care and authenticity with me to sessions.

Telehealth Openings: Do you feel stressed, overwhelmed, or dissatisfied with your life? Are you trying to adjust to a change (e.g., break up, job change, grief)? Are you haunted by trauma or experiencing PTSD symptoms? Any of these can make daily life incredibly challenging and emotionally painful or lead to numbness. Perhaps you’ve tried different strategies on your own but still don’t feel better. I can help you work through your situation so that you feel less overwhelmed, more at peace and in control, and better able to focus on the best path forward for you. We can work together to help you feel better.

You show up for everyone, manage endless details, and make it look easy. Yet inside, you may feel anxious, disconnected, or simply worn down by the pace of life. You are ready to slow down, feel calmer, and reconnect with what matters most.

I use somatic, person-centered, and DBT approaches through an attachment lens.
You might be exhausted from holding it all together amid overwhelming emotions, significant life transitions, relationship stress, identity questions, or the grind of day-to-day. Maybe underneath the exhaustion is a trauma history or attachment wounds, and you've spent life unseen, unsafe, or deeply misunderstood. Maybe you are disconnected from your body, shut down, or stuck in a state of fight-or-flight. You may get caught in overthinking or anxious patterns like intrusive thoughts, rumination, and reassurance-seeking. Our work together is to help build steadier emotions, healthier relationships, embodiment, self-trust, and hope.

My approach is relational, strengths-based, and integrative, pulling from ACT, DBT, CPT, attachment theory, and disability justice principles.
Hi! I’m Sallie (she/her), and I’m passionate in my work with neurodivergent, LGBTQIA+ adults looking to better understand themselves (including identities, values, emotions); feel more connected, understood, and secure in their relationships; and develop a greater sense of purpose and excitement for living. If you’re chronically overwhelmed, struggling with emotions that feel too big, lacking a sense of who you are or what you want out of your life, struggling to keep up with all the demands of daily living, or are generally feeling lost and want a hand figuring it all out, we may make a good team together.

I work with individuals ages 14+ experiencing a myriad of clinical concerns including depression, anxiety, life transitions, and grief. Additionally, I have a passion for working with individuals overcoming complex trauma as well as sexual abuse. Some of my other clinical experiences include working with substance use, HIV/AIDS, eating disorders, and suicidal ideation. Many of my clients are seeking out culturally sensitive care where their identities are given the space to be seen and heard. During our time together we will work on building awareness of thought patterns, beliefs, and narratives that no longer serve you.

My work experience includes private practice, community mental health clinics, psychiatric hospitals (IOP, PHP, and inpatient), and DBT clinics.
You can be highly self-aware and simultaneously stuck in the same patterns. Most of my clients find me when they know everything about their life history - what went wrong, what went right, and everything in between - but still feel as though they cannot change. This experience can be beyond annoying and confusing as we are often taught that understanding produces healing. Where do we go when insight isn't enough? My clinical speciality is getting people "un-stuck" and finally moving towards a life that feels congruent with who they know they can be. Let's work together to get you out of your loops and onto a new path.

In my Addictions/Recovery/Anger work, I use Dialectical Behavior Therapy ( DBT): connecting thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.
In a safe space, I work with individuals, couples, and groups who may be experiencing stress/anxiety related to life transitions in the form of exploring their sexuality, religion/spirituality, relationship(s), or career. I also work with individuals navigating grief related to death, mobility, living arrangements, career, relationships, retirement, or several of these simultaneously. Couples may be experiencing the same transitions above in addition to parenthood, or exploring/maintaining CNM in their relationship, developing positive communication styles, and discussing what intimacy looks like for each partner.
