Waitlist for new clients
I work with individuals who are experiencing depression, anxiety, and Complex PTSD, especially those who feel emotionally overwhelmed, have difficulty setting boundaries, feel disconnected from themselves, and struggle with rescuing/fixing others at their expense. I have a passion for working with those struggling with codependency and perfectionism, including patterns of self-abandonment, avoidance, low self-esteem, denial, control, and compliance in relationships. I assist in existential exploration of purpose, meaning, values and identity. I am LGBTQ+ affirming and actively work towards fostering an anti-oppressive lens.

As a Jewish, queer woman, I understand the complexities of intergenerational trauma and C-PTSD.
Congratulations on your pursuit of self study! This step is a brave one. As a therapist, I adhere to the philosophy that you have all of the wisdom you need, my job is to help you uncover it for yourself. I want to walk alongside you in your journey toward self-understanding, self-awareness, and self-compassion; a journey that will hopefully be incorporated throughout a lifetime. Rather than hate away the parts of ourselves we've deemed problematic, we will begin to understand how these parts likely kept us safe in an unsafe world. Together, we will nurture these parts, which will allow them to soften their grip over our reality.

HelloI'm a therapist with specialized training in the treatment of Anxiety, Depression, Adult ADHD, Autism Spectrum disorder, Trauma, and PTSD. I value a creative approach to wellness that honors safety, authenticity, and honesty. I think of starting therapy like you're cleaning out a closet that you've been storing things in for years. You've been putting things in there for so long that perhaps you've forgotten what was even in there. Together we'll sort through clutter, deciding what you need, getting rid of what you don't, and building structures to organize the parts of life that need organizing.

You’re scared you won’t be up to the challenges ahead. Long held dreams seem out of reach and you feel stuck. Old patterns of coping do not work or are becoming destructive. Something, perhaps a traumatic event, is blocking your happiness. Family and friends, while well meaning, just do not get what you are going through, nor can they offer the help that you really need. Work and relationships are in flux and you fear you can’t keep up with these changes. Grief, anger, frustration, and indecision cloud each day. Sleep is difficult with the sheer number of worries on your plate. Pressure is mounting and emotions seem out of control.

I believe our emotional lives - our feelings & memories - provide vital links to our capacity for aliveness. However, we often struggle to makes sense of these experiences and to use them for meaningful change. Core emotions that frequently haunt us like fear, anger, sadness, loneliness can be openings to a greater sense of meaning when explored, elaborated, and understood in a therapeutic group setting.

My personal and professional style is goal oriented, which translates to working in a time-limited fashion.
I believe that often the suffering that people describe is born from an unwillingness to be present in the moment or to experience the truth of their experience. The truth can make us feel anxious all of the time, make our moods difficult to tolerate, or make us feel uncomfortable during everyday life circumstances.

LGBTQ+ Therapists

Do LGBTQ-affirmative therapists receive special training?

Yes. Many therapists who practice LGBTQ-affirmative therapy have completed specialized training, either during their degree program or as continuing education, to learn the core principles of affirmative therapy and how to best support their LGBTQ clients; some have received certifications in LGBTQ-affirmative therapy. Prospective clients should inquire as to a clinician’s background and training to ensure a good fit.

Why might I want to see an LGBTQ-affirming or LGBTQ-friendly therapist?

Queer and gender-non-conforming individuals frequently experience bias and marginalization in day-to-day life. Working with a therapist who understands these unique challenges, as well as accepts and affirms their identity, can help LGBTQ clients feel safe and supported during therapy—allowing them to better navigate their relationships, mental health, and anything else that they wish to explore during therapy. It is important to note that many therapists can be effective in their work with LGBTQ+ individuals, even in the absence of specific training or background knowledge. The most important component in therapy is the alliance between therapist and client, and this alliance can exist between individuals with very different backgrounds.

How can I find an LGBTQ-friendly therapist?

You may wish to inquire about a therapist’s expertise with your specific challenges or concerns—depression, for example, or relationship strife—as well as their past experiences treating LGBTQ+ clients. Prospective clients may also ask whether a therapist has obtained additional training and/or certification in LGBTQ-affirmative techniques.

How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience with LGBTQ issues?

Prospective clients should feel empowered to directly ask therapists whether they have received training or been certified in LGBTQ-affirming therapy; competent therapists will be happy to explain their educational background and preferred approach(es) to help a client find the best match for them. Clients may also wish to ask how a therapist has treated clients with their particular challenges in the past and what they expect treatment to look like.

Are all the therapists listed in the LGBTQ directory themselves members of the LGBTQ community?

While therapists may choose to disclose their sexual orientation or gender identity in their profiles, the LGBTQ directory features not only those who have shared this information but also those who assert specialized training or experience in providing support to queer individuals, couples or families.
