Living authentically and compassionately leads to inner peace. Trauma and distress can cause a plethora of confusing responses, making that peace seem unobtainable. Each person brings their own worldview, experiences, strengths and clues to unburdening oneself from the overwhelm. Healing and moving forward can seem daunting. Therapy transforms the mind-body system, leading to self-energy and clarity. Now also offering training for schools and organizations on becoming trauma-informed!

Seeking clarity? Therapy can allow you to identify and remove blocks to creating change, help you make more intentional choices by offering deeper awareness of your perspective, and/or help you to construct coherency or a different view of issues that are plaguing you. While I enjoy working with clients of varying backgrounds and ages (and all are welcome in my practice), I specialize in working with those who are suffering from anxiety, trauma, complex trauma, sex- and sexuality-related concerns, and who are aged 14+. I can help you to make adjustments that create change in your life. I offer therapy that is LGBTQ+ affirming.

Perhaps you find yourself feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disappointed, or like life is just passing you by. Maybe your relationships feel dry and you're having trouble connecting with your loved ones. You might think to yourself, "That's it. I don't want to continue living like this. I want better for myself. I want to enjoy life again." Congratulations to you for embracing this first step toward change. You are brave for this, and I know we can continue to take steps forward together.

Life is full of decisions, every day is a choice. That is a mantra I have believed and lived by for many years. Sometimes the choice requires having the courage to begin again...start over...wipe the slate clean. I have made that decision myself which involved working against fear, insecurities, and many other obstacles. Life does not always give us the opportunity to make lemonade. Sometimes we have to throw away the lemons life dishes us and decide to make something new. I specialize in helping people from a variety of backgrounds with making those decisions and learning how to live with new perspectives, thoughts, and behaviors.

Hi there! I’m SaMika. Many people see therapy as a one-sided conversation in which the “expert” talks to you and tells you what to do. What is the joy in that? I find joy in working with other experts to create solutions to great change- and guess what? You are the expert on YOU. I believe one of the bravest things someone can do is work to understand their own story.

Hi Friend! I understand this can be an intimidating endeavor. But it can also be the best decision you ever make. Therapy involves discovering who you are, and who you want to become, while providing direction toward the happy, satisfying, fulfilling life you deserve. Life can be complicated, messy, and difficult. But it doesn’t have to stay that way! You are WORTH good things. And it's my highest priority to utilize my experience, education, and skill-set to get you there. This is a safe space, free from toxicity, negativity, or judgement. Rather, this is a connection designed to empower, and ultimately influence peace.
