I never thought of it like that... This a phrase I often hear from my clients as I challenge them to think outside the box and embrace different perspectives and approaches. It's essential to ensure your unique story is known, seen, and heard. . I help children, adolescents, and adults learn to identify and express their feelings and develop coping strategies to deal with difficult situations. Also, if interested, I offer animal therapy with the adorable ICAN therapy dog, Levi (see pic below), providing unique support in our healing work together. "Healing is an art. It takes time, it takes practice. It takes love." - Maza Dohta

Humans have a biological need to feel safe and worthy of love. In a world that repeatedly invalidates sensitivity and vulnerability, it’s not surprising that many of us struggle to feel happy, attain goals and find fulfilling romantic relationships. Some of us turn to substances, while others over function. If we are parents, we may find that we accidently repeat hurtful dynamics with our own children. Suddenly, or not so suddenly, we find ourselves struggling with guilt, shame and hopelessness. I am here to provide a warm and non-judgmental space, so that we may explore the strength and resilience you already posess.

People seek help when they’re overwhelmed by sadness, anxiety, or anger, or when challenging relationships cause feelings of isolation, frustration, or conflict. Life obstacles—such as major transitions or unmet goals—can feel insurmountable. Chronic stress or low energy can leave individuals feeling drained and stuck, making it difficult to find joy or satisfaction. But people are often stronger than they realize, and I’ve seen powerful transformations when hope is introduced. In a trusting, non-judgmental relationship, you’ll have the support to discover your true potential and live a life aligned with your deepest values.

Hi there, and welcome, I’m so glad that you're here. Everyone has a different path that they walk in life. If you’ve been carrying invisible wounds for a long time, then you know that healing is not about “just getting over it”- it’s about feeling safe enough to explore your story, finding the language for what’s been an unspeakable burden, and building a life that is worth living for you. Experiencing trauma can shape how you see yourself and it can influence how safe you feel in the world. My work is dedicated to helping others overcome the challenges of trauma by empowering them to build their confidence, trust, and happiness.

Life is hard, but therapy doesn’t have to be. Via telehealth sessions, I will meet clients where they are on their journey as they encounter challenges, including stress, burnout, life transitions, trauma, racial trauma, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, and grief and loss. I believe it is important to learn how to anchor through a storm and how to get up after being knocked down, to find our voice and to speak it with courage and discernment, and to learn our values and to bring those values everywhere. Therapy provides the opportunity to enhance and optimize all areas of life.

What are the advantages of seeing a Native American therapist?
Therapists are trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of mental health conditions through various forms of talk therapy and behavioral interventions. Building a strong therapeutic relationship is an essential part of feeling supported and understood in care. For many Native American individuals, working with a provider who shares or respects their cultural background can foster a deeper sense of trust and connection in the therapeutic process. Native American therapists may be especially well-equipped to address topics such as historical trauma, intergenerational grief, and cultural identity—factors that can significantly shape the mental health experiences of Native American clients. These providers may also be knowledgeable about and incorporate Indigenous healing traditions, which can be beneficial for clients seeking this approach. Additionally, Native American therapists may be more familiar with community resources, support networks, or other culturally-aligned providers who can offer further support.
How to find a Native American therapist?
Psychology Today’s online directory is a useful tool for finding a Native American therapist. You can filter for providers who identify as Native American or who mention working with Indigenous populations and highlight cultural competence in their profiles. Look for signs such as experience with tribal communities, familiarity with Native traditions, or a focus on trauma-informed care. Depending on your preferences and needs, it may also be important to ask whether a provider offers telehealth, which therapeutic approaches they use, and whether they accept your insurance. If you're unable to find a therapist who personally identifies as Native American, you may also consider providers who have experience working with Native clients or who demonstrate a clear commitment to cultural humility and respect for Native American beliefs and traditions. You might also consider a blended approach—for example, seeing a therapist for talk therapy while also seeing a Native healer or counselor for more culturally-specific support.
