Starting therapy can feel intimidating—but you don’t have to do it alone. I work with children, teens, young adults, and families navigating anxiety, trauma, self-esteem challenges, life transitions, and family conflict. My goal is to create a space where you (or your child) feel seen, supported, and understood. I believe therapy works best when it’s collaborative and tailored to your unique needs—using approaches like CBT, mindfulness, and person-centered therapy to help you build insight and coping skills that last beyond the session.
My background in child welfare and private practice has shaped my trauma-sensitive, strengths-based, and LGBTQIA+ affirming style. I care deeply about helping clients develop emotional regulation, explore identity, and strengthen relationships. I also run a 4-week teen group focused on vaping, stress, and peer pressure—see flyer on my profile for details.
Whether you’re seeking support for yourself, your child, or your family, I aim to meet you where you are—with authenticity, curiosity, and compassion. You don’t need to have everything figured out to start therapy; you just need to take the first step. I’d be honored to walk with you as you begin this process.

Groups
Breathe Easy: Youth Vaping Awareness & Support
Breathe Easy is a 4-week support group for teens (ages 11–17) who are vaping, have experimented, or feel pressure to start. Using Stanford Medicine’s vape-free curriculum, we explore why teens vape, what’s in a vape, and how to build healthier coping strategies. Sessions include education, peer connection, and hands-on tools for stress, anxiety, and peer pressure — all in a safe, trauma-informed, and LGBTQIA+ affirming space. Separate sessions are offered for middle and high school students. Led by Lauren Brooks, LLMSW, under supervision of Christine Feick, LMSW. This group is not billable to insurance.
