Life is ever changing and evolving. At times change brings with it a sense of excitement and joy, and at other times a turn of events leaves us disappointed, overwhelmed, sad, or disconnected from others and ourselves. Although therapy cannot stop the ups and downs of living, it can help us develop new strategies, new perceptions, and new behaviors that transform feelings of self-doubt and despair into resilient feelings of inner strength and fulfillment. I provide a safe, confidential and caring environment, and bring a heartfelt and genuine approach to support you in finding joy and inner peace.

I love working with the seekers - the ones who are feeling stuck in relationships or patterns, who have as deep a desire to understand as to move beyond. I am here for the psychologically curious - those who want insight and meaning while they strive to create a life that isn't painful all the time. Your pain needs to be tended to, but your capacity for joy and fun and play must simultaneously be cultivated. Life is complicated and problematic. Our power lies in our creative and flexible responses to our setbacks.

I work alongside couples who are either in distress or are starting to feel the distance and conflict between them overshadowing the good. So many partnerships and marriages are worn down by stress and conflict around work/life/family balancing, sexual differences, parenting, in-laws, differences in values or beliefs, and all the ways we don’t show up for each other as anticipated. I create a safe place and ample time for you to share what you need, hope for, miss, and crave in your relationship. We will work through hard topics, recurring struggles, and old hurts in ways that will help you each feel seen, heard, and understood.

I utilize an eclectic therapeutic approach that emphasizes training received in Gestalt Therapy, CBT, Experiential Therapy, Mindfulness, & Emotional Focused Therapy.

I have extensive experience serving young men, men in transitional life phases, couples struggling with communication, & families in conflict. I assist clients in accessing and understanding emotions via a direct empathetic approach.

Whenever you think of talking with someone, thoroughly explaining everything from how you feel today, or how you have felt for years, or to the choices you are facing, or how your body and sense of yourself alters things, and you wonder, how do I find that "right" person to talk to? You have found them. Adolescent or adult, individual or a couple, call me for a free consultation, and let's see where to go from here!

I provide therapy for children and adults dealing with ongoing stress related to trauma, anxiety, life transitions (divorce/separation, grief/loss, job changes, family changes, etc.). It can be hard seeing your kiddo struggling- they might have trouble making friends, having increased outbursts, dealing with nightmares/sleep issues, or generally struggling after traumatic or stressful experiences. Adults, you might feel overwhelmed with your own stress, tough memories that keep popping up, worries that you just can't shake, or are seeing negative impacts on your various relationships due to how you're feeling. Therapy can help!

Hi, I'm Lydia and I utilize a solution focused, mindfulness based approach to aid clients in exploring their authentic selves and behavioral patterns. Like a Phoenix, I believe individuals have the ability to rise from the ashes as renewed, stronger versions of themselves. Whether those ashes are from broken relationships, perpetual marital problems, crippling anxiety, career dissatisfaction or the aftermath of trauma, they have the power to transform you.

My work with clients is unique because in addition to helping you heal, I teach you how to heal yourself.

My clients find that our work prepares them to move more confidently and effectively when met with life’s inevitable challenges. I prioritize connection with the present moment, the wisdom held in our bodies, and authentic relationship between two human beings. I integrate a Western science understanding of human development & the nervous system (EMDR) with Eastern wisdom on the causes of suffering

Therapy is about you. It's about your needs and goals. It's about healing from your past to flourish in the future. As your therapist, my job is to provide a safe, radically-accepting environment, whether you want to make a life change, cope with loss, navigate through a crisis, or simply open up to a supportive listener.
