Many times in life we are left searching for answers. We often develop feelings and behaviors that may become difficult to manage stemming from current circumstances or even previous experiences.

The opportunity to help you broaden your ideas of who you are and what you can be is undeniably my greatest reward. Thirty-five years of practice have taught me a great deal about people and how to help them. Feelings of unworthiness, hopelessness, shame, or incompetence literally can begin to steal away your ability to recognize yourself and see your own strength, resilience, courage, and competence. I know that you can experience your life as successful. It is my absolute belief that you can. Where I come in is to help you regain your own healthy, change-producing abilities.

Welcome! I’m glad you’re here and considering reaching out for support. I offer evening and weekend appointments to help make therapy accessible. I work with transgender, nonbinary, and gender-diverse adults who are worn down by the cumulative impact of minority stress, gender dysphoria, trauma, anxiety, depression, or relationship strain. I also help those who wish to transition navigate that experience. In addition, I work with family members to gain understanding and learn how to support their transgender loved one. My approach is non-judgmental and compassionate.

Like characters from our favorite stories, we often get stuck when we encounter obstacles on the journey toward who/where we want to be. Perhaps you’re at a stuck point. Perhaps you’re dealing with shame, self-doubt, traumatic stress, grief, anxiety, emotional imbalance, unstable relationships, or an outlook that only seems to be hurting you. I have some good news: “stuckness” doesn’t have to be your destiny. Periods of “stuckness” may present as giants, but they are also opportunities for awareness, growth, & change. As your therapist, I want to help you navigate the obstacles impeding your journey, so you can move forward.

Come as you are. Whether you feel depressed, anxious, angry, or somewhere in between. Whether you are seeking support for specific issues or just want someone to talk to. Either way, become the author of your own life story.

My ideal client is someone who recognizes the need for change in their life, but may not know how to go about it to produce positive results. I treat adults and teens who are struggling with trauma, mood disorders, anxiety, and relationship /situationship issues. In addition, cultivating self-awareness and figuring out what goals you have is a big part of therapy no matter what you come in with and is something everyone could benefit from. Being open to talk about hard things is difficult, but also very brave. I see it as a privilege to get to work with those who are ready to make that step in a safe validating environment.

Do you feel like something is missing? Like you are close but also lost all at the same time? Life can be complex, scary, and overwhelming when we feel unequipped to tackle what is in front of us. We are so quick to guilt ourselves for feeling powerless over and over again. I work with clients to aid them in making sense of their lives so they can have hope in a way forward. We usually start with just trying to understand what has happened to bring you to therapy. From there, we set what goals we're working toward each time we meet. Then it is just a simple process of talking, feeling, expressing, and processing everything through.

Therapy is a great avenue to take a step inward and begin hearing your own voice, understanding yourself, and hopefully helping you begin the journey of self- acceptance and self-love. Therapy is not only for those suffering with serious mental illnesses. Life is hard, we all have our own form of suffering. There is no shame is needing help navigating hardships or emotional pain. I believe perspective holds a lot of power and many of us are walking around with the voices of others in our heads rather than allowing ourselves to be true to who we are. I would be honored to walk alongside you in your journey of healing.

Do you feel like you've lost your sense of you? Anxiety can often keep us from enjoying or even participating in our lives. Do you feel like you are existing but not living? Is avoidance your best friend? Maybe intrusive thoughts are increasing the anxiety. Maybe, a disturbing thought crosses your mind and you think, "Why would I have a thought like that? This is not who I am." Maybe you can't sleep, you're exhausted, and you miss yourself... the real you. I want to remind you, the most important relationship you will ever have is with yourself. It's time to nurture the relationship, grow, and evolve.

Schema Therapy
How does schema therapy work?
Schema therapy is based on the idea that maladaptive thought patterns formed in childhood—that other people can never be relied on, for example—can interfere with healthy functioning in adulthood. Accordingly, schema therapy works by directly targeting such unhealthy schemas, identifying their consequences, and replacing them with more adaptive ways of thinking. To this end, schema therapists aim to “reparent” the client by offering what they didn’t get in childhood—validation, for instance, or compassion—to reorient their worldview.
Is schema therapy evidence-based?
Schema therapy is still considered relatively new, and research on its efficacy is still in progress. However, some studies have concluded that it can be effective at treating certain mental health conditions, most notably personality disorders such as borderline personality disorder. Evidence for its efficacy in treating conditions like depression, anxiety, PTSD, and OCD is promising but less conclusive, and experts warn that much of the existing research is of low quality.
Is schema therapy a type of CBT?
Schema therapy is based on many principles of CBT, most notably the process of recognizing and challenging maladaptive thought patterns. But because schema therapy also draws from other approaches,including psychoanalysis and Gestalt therapy, it is not considered a form of CBT. It also typically delves deeper into the client’s childhood than does CBT.
How does schema therapy work?
Schema therapy does not call for a set number of sessions and is instead open-ended, with the treatment timeline depending on the client’s primary concern(s), progress, and preferences. Treatment that lasts between six months and two years is common, though many clients will start to see progress much earlier than that.
