Lesbian Therapists in 22030

As a licensed clinical psychologist since 1997, I understand that the relationship and "fit" between client and therapist is paramount. I am a generalist, meaning that I work with clients from childhood to adulthood, in individual, family, couple's, and group therapy. I see clients dealing with issues including anxiety, conflict, depression, and relationship difficulties. In addition, I have an interest working with gay and lesbian clients. If you feel I can be helpful to you or someone you know, please feel free to contact me. I would be happy to discuss your unique situation in more detail.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist whose services include psychotherapy, psychological assessment, and consultation. I work to help clients with a wide range of difficulties including depression, anxiety, bereavement, relationship problems, and coping with trauma, as well as with transgender and/or sexual orientation issues. I particularly specialize in helping gay and lesbian individuals coping with childhood sexual abuse. I do individual therapy, providing practical ways to approach life's most difficult challenges. I work with clients in a collaborative relationship, with both of us working together to help you understand yourself and your problems more clearly.

Shout out to you! I'm here to be your ally on this path. If you’re in a transitional period of your life, (whether it’s entering high school, moving out, starting college, getting a new job, etc.), I’m here to help you dive deep into those anxious moments, explore the thoughts that may be holding you back, step up your communication game, and reinforce boundaries.

Welcome! Sometimes we decide that we need a change in our lives. Maybe anxiety, depression, or a past experience has limited our views of ourselves and what we think we are able to do. Or we’re struggling with who we are and what feels most meaningful to us. Or we want to improve the way we perform. Taking a step toward change—especially the first step—can feel like standing still. But notice what happens when you can string a few steps together: suddenly you're a little bit further than you were before, and before you realize it, you're a lot further. That's the power of MOMENTUM.

I believe we heal through relationships. They can positively rewire our brains and facilitate growth. In our sessions, we will enter into a therapeutic relationship through conversation. Together we will create a safe space and explore the things that are troubling you. We will learn more about your thoughts, your feelings, and your beliefs. We will examine how those things influence your behaviors. The more you know, the more control you have in the way you move through life. The key to transformational change is awareness. Our focus will be on the present-what is happening now, and how you want to be.

Are you overwhelmed and find it difficult to express yourself in healthy ways? I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and young adults whose quality of life are being impacted by the effects of trauma, addiction, eating disorders, and a range of psychiatric symptoms. We all deserve to to live our best lives! Together, we can explore healthier ways of coping with stress, anxiety, and depression. Let’s uncover the roots of your pain and work towards eliminating the barriers that keep you from thriving. We will explore various therapy approaches including EMDR, DBT, and music therapy, to meet your individual needs.

We help couples build person-to-person, heart-to-heart, soul-to-soul connections. We all long to be seen, heard, understood, held, and cherished by our precious person. Being in secure connection often conflicts with how life has shaped us. For many of us, relationship experiences have included bumps in the road, needs have been missed, wounds have developed, protections have grown, trust has been broken, limited beliefs have emerged, and parts of us have been hidden away. We help couples explore how life has influenced their interactions and then find lasting ways to heal, connect, repair, meet unmet needs, and build security.

TELETHERAPY 30min Complimentary Intro Consultation: "She’ll tell you what your friends won’t... and that’s a good thing which results in your time and money well-spent.

Hi there! Opening up to someone about what is causing you pain can be a challenge. You don’t have to be alone in the process. By working through a collaborative approach, together we will identify skills that will bring about positive change to help reach your goals. I am here to partner with you as you work towards healing. My goal is to provide a warm and supportive environment in which you will feel heard and foster self-growth. I support youth and adults during life transitions, social anxiety, self-esteem, and emotional or behavioral concerns.

You're looking into therapy, so let's do it. I offer intensive Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) to fast-track your recovery. Your problems didn’t develop an hour a week, so why should your therapy? If you are experiencing flashbacks, intrusive thoughts, or painful emotions that you don't want to talk about, EMDR offers a way for you to work through your experiences without having to share all the details. If you feel stuck with weekly therapy or have been reluctant to open difficult issues week after week, intensive EMDR can help. We can past in the past, so you can figure out what to do next.

Welcome. I am glad you are here. Each person has a vision of their future or is hoping for a desired change based on their present & future circumstances & goals. I will work with you in determining the skills, resources & abilities that are needed to achieve that vision. Clients are unique individuals and I know that one model does not fit all. The relationship & trust that we develop is what brings about awareness and change. Therapy works because I value your understanding of yourself & combine that with my clinical expertise, in finding solutions & turning these solutions into tangible life goals.

Are you a 40+ woman who is twice exceptional (intelligent and ADHD), feeling overwhelmed? Is it even harder because your parents are accomplished people, and you feel like you can't keep up with expectations? You are hardworking and others count on you. But there are days when it feels like it takes all you have just to get dressed and out the door. Your brain either supercharged or foggy, and you can't often predict which it will be. So you sometimes feel like an Impostor who is just "pulling it off". You had trauma, recently or in the past, which doesn't help. You are ready for change, but you need to be understood.
