Transitions could include starting college, marriage, pregnancy, parenthood, career change, divorce, physical illness, and death of loved ones.
I understand that you may be suffering in some way, feeling lost, confused or scared. I can offer you a safe, confidential, and nonjudgmental space where you may fully express yourself. I have a holistic interest in your health which includes how the mind, body, and soul affect each other. I practice from a compassionate, patient centered perspective based in a psychodynamic approach. This approach focuses on exploration to find and understand the origin of your issues. It takes time but can lead to longer and more meaningful change.

I work with clients wanting to process their lived experiences related to their sexuality, gender, pleasure, neurodiversity, relationships, and mind-body connection as they navigate trauma, loss, depression, or grief.
Hi there! I’m CP, and I’m here partner with you on your path to self-compassion and growth. Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you—it’s a safe space to explore, ask questions, and reconnect with your authentic self. If you’re feeling mentally overwhelmed, emotionally numb, or physically burned out, we can work together to help you express yourself fully and find balance. I'm particularly passionate about working with LGBTQIA+ folks and survivors of interpersonal trauma. I'm also currently pursuing my Sexual Health Association (SHA) certification to become a certified Sex Therapist to pair with my experience being a Sex Educator.

Anxiety, depression, grief/ loss are just a few reasons why people look to therapy for support.
Human beings can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind. Our attitudes and beliefs may come from our childhood, our experiences and maybe what we have learned from others. After working in many areas of mental health, I have gained experience in assisting people in figuring out where thoughts and feelings may be coming from and the best methods to improve them. Everyone finds that their overall mental health improves and they create a better version of themselves. I have been married for 14 years and have three young kids.

What? Me . .traumatized? Surely it's not as bad as. . someone else and Their experience. Trauma comes in many forms and disguises. The back part of the brain subconsciously feels we are in a battle or there's a bear in the cave. Our defenses/ways of coping and triggers arise in ways that aren't helpful or productive/controllable. Reactions/responses seem to come from out of nowhere. These can be signs/symptoms of anxiety, depression, and overwhelm. All can be addressed and shifted in counseling, particularly through EMDR. I am certified in that field and have found it to be life-changing for many.
