"I welcome your rough edges, tender places, inner wisdom, and the search for more fulfillment. Together, we will invite self-compassion and acceptance around what is already happening, while also creating ways to experience more satisfying ways of treating yourself, being with others, and inhabiting your life. My clients include people who experience depression, anxiety, grief, anger, and shame, creative folks who are stalled at manifesting their potential, gentle souls who find it hard to navigate in a frenetic world, people who want to establish fresh relationship patterns, and those who are recovering their balance amidst life transitions."

"I believe that everyone deserves an opportunity to foster an understanding of their own mental health and create insight into what is needed in order to build healthy, personalized approaches to self-care, coping, and communication. Building this type of self-awareness and reaching the point of implementing these skills is often daunting, so connecting with a therapist to support you in processing through these experiences will help lead to genuine change. My focus is to work with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, and perfectionism, as well as couples that have difficulty establishing effective communication patterns."

" I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 18 years of experience. I work with individuals of all ethnicities, genders, and sexual orientations, ranging in age from 18 through 65+. My philosophy stems from a belief that life is an ever-changing process that provides the opportunities for individuals to develop into their own person; however, due to trauma or other painful or problematic issues, we may become stuck. My approach is warm, interactive, collaborative, and individualized drawing on different therapeutic models which may include mindfulness, psychodynamic, CBT, DBT, and EMDR approaches."

"My clients are people who want more enjoyment and intimate connection in their lives. Many of my clients struggle to maintain relationships, or in feeling close to those they love. They may have a history of abuse or neglect (emotional, physical, sexual, or spiritual), or were raised in homes where boundaries, roles, and expectations were confusing or even frightening. As a result they find themselves "on the outside," feeling unseen, anxious, resentful, and isolated, even with people they love. Experiencing the safety of being deeply known and deeply loved is their greatest longing, and my greatest joy to help them attain."

"I CURRENTLY HAVE A WAITING LIST UNTIL NOVEMBER 2019. Do you want to implement change in your life but are unsure how? Have you been avoiding these changes or are afraid to address them? I will collaborate with you by assisting you in identify patterns which are no longer serving you. I will encourage you to be kind, loving and compassionate towards yourself. Working from an empathic-based perspective, I will teach you to nurture yourself by using the tools of creative arts therapy, cognitive restructuring, mindfulness, visualization, acupressure and EFT tapping to help find your strengths."

"I enjoy working with clients who feel that their minds have become unmanageable. This experience often arises from a belief that inner conflict and complexity is a problem to be solved rather than a state of affairs to be understood and befriended. Sometimes this unmanageability shows up as anxiety, where the mind dreads bad outcomes and wont allow you to enjoy your life. Other times as depression, where the mind is mired in hopelessness, despair, or resentment. Addictions of various sorts can also arise from this state of affairs, whereby we try to distract or quiet our minds through destructive patterns of behavior. "

"Starting therapy can be daunting, so I encourage you to reach out, even if you're uncertain where to start. I've witnessed profound impacts in my work with people, where shame becomes self acceptance and overwhelm becomes relief and ease. I welcome everyone who wants to work with me, and especially welcome those who may not have felt comfortable in therapy before, possibly due to experiencing marginality, societal oppression, or being shy. I also tend to work well with over achievers, sensitive introverts, and perfectionists struggling to find a stable sense of self worth. My practice is anti oppression and trauma informed."

"Do you often feel misunderstood and hurt? Do you feel as though your emotions are controlling you and you don’t know what to do to change that? Does it leave you feeling emotionally exhausted, anxious and depressed? I know what that feels like and I can help you develop the skills to effectively cope and regulate your emotions and help you identify and communicate your emotions, needs and boundaries to others so you can be heard and get your needs met. "

"What's your greatest fear? Where does it hurt the most? These two questions plague us all at one time or another. Is fear holding you back from experiencing life as you've always dreamed it could be? Is the hurt of painful memories, difficult circumstances, or impossible relationships keeping you from truly becoming the person you are meant to be? There is hope. And there is healing. I'm here to partner with you, as together, we navigate those fears and hurts that have kept you from truly living a life of freedom and victory!"

"As a licensed psychologist, I love helping people experience more satisfaction in their relationships. I also enjoy coaching people in ways to effectively resolve personal concerns. In general, I endeavor to help people experience more hope, peace, and joy in their lives. People are often seeking ways to resolve persistent depression, anxiety, anger, and low self-esteem. Some wonder if trust can be restored after betrayal, or if their marriage can be saved. Couples desire to improve intimacy and to experience a more meaningful sense of connection. People also see me to improve parenting skills or address employment related concerns."

"Over thousands of years, philosophers have developed tools to explore the good life--what makes life meaningful, joyful, and fulfilling. As a professional philosopher, I draw upon those tools to empower you think clearly, live purposefully, and choose confidently. In our sessions, I offer friendly and accessible conversation, compassionate listening, and a healthy dose of humor. Together, we investigate your deepest assumptions about what is true and important so we can challenge what is not working, develop what is, and find greater order, harmony, and power in your thoughts and actions. We awaken and cultivate your inner philosopher."

"I provide mindfulness-based therapy for adult individuals seeking treatment for depression, anxiety, trauma, and PTSD. I believe change happens through the healing relationship, as we collaborate to navigate difficult emotions, manage states of anxiety and depression, and transcend suffering and trauma. By building skills that increase self-awareness and self-compassion, you can learn to find joy in the present moment. "

"Perhaps you are struggling with difficult patterns or beliefs, you are experiencing depression, anxiety or a general dissatisfaction with your current life. Maybe you are tired of playing small and recognize that you have better things to do than survive. It is my passion and honor to hold space and serve those who are on their journey of personal growth and development. My interest is in deep authentic relational work, as it is my belief that we are at our best when we feel whole and connected."

"Welcome! I enjoy working with individuals and couples, and walking alongside them in their healing. I believe therapy is a collaborative experience between the family and therapist, that each client has the resiliency and resources they need already within, and that it is our job to uncover them. My work with clients considers biological, psychological, social, and spiritual factors. I specialize in working with clients who are experiencing relational distress, sex concerns, infertility/pregnancy issues, transracial/transnational family dynamics, processing trauma, religion and spirituality, body-image concerns, or low self esteem. "

"Do you feel lost, like you aren't sure who you are or where you are going? Do you miss being a kid? Or perhaps you have a sense that everyone is, somehow, doing better than you. I can help. Whether you would like to improve your relationships with partners, friends, or family, explore feelings of grief in your own way without pressure to "get back to normal already," or find that sense of self and purpose that you might be missing, I provide a safe and confidential environment to process thoughts and feelings and gain insight, feedback and understanding."

"Are you looking for holistic support that includes both mind and body medicine? Perhaps talking about your struggle hasn't been as helpful as you hoped, and you are looking for a more embodied style of counseling. My whole person approach includes mind-body counseling, screening for underlying imbalances that can mimic mental illness, and prescribing medications if needed."

"I respect the complexity of human nature and human needs and strive to guide adults, children, and families through difficult issues by tailoring treatment plans to address individuals’ needs. I recognize and respect cultural differences and support the growth of children to enhance their emotional awareness which I believe results in healthier, safer communities. I employ an eclectic approach to therapy with a strong reliance on attachment theory. My primary modalities in therapy are play therapy and a form of drama therapy in which embodiment, playfulness, and relationship are key features."

"If you're going through a difficult transition, experiencing a loss of meaning, struggling with anxiety, depression, anger or unresolved trauma, or struggling in your relationship, I'm here to help."

"My personal style in therapy is optimistic and playful. My approach is eclectic, with a combination of focus towards theory based interventions balanced with intuition and spontaneity. I deeply value the power of human connection in the healing process and therapy as a collaborative process. I strive for inclusiveness and cultural competency in my work and am deeply committed to social justice. I help my clients explore meaning, past trauma, stressful life events, transitions, and identifying resources to help them feel empowered and hopeful. I have practiced therapy with children, families, couples and adults since 2009. "

"You may appear "fine" to those around you, but inside your emotions are intense and seem out of your control. You feel disconnected from your friends, your family and your life. It's overwhelming and you wonder how you got to this place. You desperately want to just, "let it go," but you don't know how. Right now, you're barely able to keep your head above water and if you don't get help soon, it feels like you might go under."
