**NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS. I have experience working in various mental health settings, providing psychotherapy as well as early childhood intervention and crisis intervention. I have and continue to pursue training in the impacts of trauma and loss as well as depth oriented psychotherapy. Furthermore, I am a trained yoga instructor and specialize in integrating traditional psychotherapy with body awareness when relevant. However, I also believe in working collaboratively with the client to create a therapy plan that works best for the individual.

Using the therapeutic process I can offer many things to people: empathy and a sounding board, other ways of looking at issues, and ideas about how to solve problems. In addition, I can help you feel more alive to your experience as paying attention to your inner voice can increase your capacity to feel and be present. I have been a therapist for over twenty years. I also have taught clinical practice for ten years to students earning their masters degrees in counseling and I provide ongoing clinical supervision for people who work in various settings.

The first premise in my practice is the respect I have for the person coming to me seeking to start psychotherapy. I understand how difficult it is to start therapy and talk to someone about our problems. No one is alike, no life style is the same. I listen to each of my patients allowing them time to familiarize with the purpose of the therapy and to begin to genuinely speak about the difficulties they encounter in their lives. Psychotherapy is a process of discovery and growth. As a psychotherapist and psychoanalyst I strive to facilitate this process.

Therapy is about seeking balance and asking questions and looking for answers. Finding a balance between what we feel and what we know and a balance between the quicker emotional side of our mind and the more considered rational side are part of the process. Whether the questions are around interpersonal relationships, substance abuse, parenting, or career and motivation the answers will come only with this balance. My approach to therapy is about solving problems based on a relational and collaborative approach offering a supportive and sympathetic ear balanced with reality and solutions.

Stress, anxiety and depression characterize modern day living; working therapeutically I can help you to reduce stress and make meaningful change in your life. The heart of my clinical practice is to provide clients with a continuity of human relatedness while self-change is taking place. I offer a warm environment that can facilitate a creative dialogue between internal and external reality. Uniquely relational yet still uniquely individual this is a space where conflict and its resolution can develop.

I provide individual therapy to children, adolescents and adults. I am known for creating a non-judgemental and down to earth environment, where we can work together to reach goals, manage stress and anxiety, create an empowering space and develop positive coping strategies. I pull from various clinical approaches, fine tuning my approach to each individual client and their situation. I have significant experience helping individuals manage and cope with attachment disorders, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, transitional factors, social issues, parenting, impulse control, emotional regulation, sensory processing disorders, PTSD, trauma and adoption/foster care.

My practice is currently full. I provide a warm, attentive, and interactive psychotherapy relationship that aims to help people deepen their self-understanding, break out of hurtful patterns, and develop new modes of thinking, feeling, and relating to others that will reduce depression and anxiety. I am particularly interested in trying to help clients feel freer, more real, more connected, and more like the authors of their own lives, so that they can achieve what they hope for in work and relationships.

I understand how difficult seeking help can be for many teens. With over 25 years of experience, I'm able to engage the most challenging young people, so they can get the help they need. I specialize in working with teens who are struggling across multiple domains in their lives. My approach is both trauma-informed and strength based. I have extensive training in ARC (Attachment Regulation and Competency) interventions. I have a long history of running mental health programs for youth and their families, I bring a unique understanding of child welfare, educational, justice and mental health systems.

I'm sorry, but currently (10/29/2020) I am unable to take on new clients. As a psychotherapist, I am continually committed to providing a safe and supportive experience for my clients. Using traditional and more current modalities I work to help people address behaviors that may affect interpersonal, relational, and career challenges. All are welcomed in therapy to learn new ways to manage the obstacles to personal social and occupational wellbeing. I work with people around longstanding issues of depression and anxiety, relationship difficulties, as well as adjustment to educational and career transitions.

((FULL)) I'm excited for the opportunity to work with you and your family! 15 years ago I began my training as a child & family clinician. Since then I have worked with children and young adults ages 2-22 as well as parents and adults in both the hospital and community health settings. Please reach out if you would like to explore receiving support around stress, adjustment, low mood, anxious feelings, grief, trauma, difficulty with attention, developmental delays, or other learning needs. I am interested in your family's way of being. I value building off of your strengths! What is working for you and what needs to shift?

It is a brave thing to seek out resources for healing and change. In my years of practice I have come to understand that the right therapy connection generates the power and possibility of cultivating our best selves. I work extensively with people who have survived trauma, redefined (dis)ability and come into LGBT community. I work with diverse relationship and family structures. I can help you identify what you most need and support you in building the strengths and resources to get it. In our work together we can create a space for you to survive and thrive.

Feeling stuck in old patterns? Wishing that your life was different? Therapy can help you look at your challenges and find a new ways of seeing yourself and your strengths. Thor (yellow lab and co-therapist) and I provide a non-judgmental, safe, and compassionate place to look at the challenges in your life: whether that be living with cancer, depression or anxiety, parenting challenges or healing from trauma. We focus on building on your strengths, teaching new coping skills, and actively witnessing the reworking of your story.

*Not currently accepting new clients.* For more than 20 years, I have provided therapy to individuals, couples and groups, as well as offering training, consultation and clinical supervision to individuals and community organizations. My work centers around bridging transitions, fostering personal growth and developing compassionate responses and strategies to address life's challenges. In addition to providing support and encouragement, I will challenge you to think critically about the choices you are making and to work toward overcoming the obstacles that may be keeping you from achieving your goals.

I am a bilingual bi cultural family therapist who enjoy working with family with children, adults and couples. In my work I used a warm and friendly approach to create a safe and relax environment in my office. My approach combine the use of family systems, mindfulness, cultural understanding and cognitive approach. Soy un psicoterapista bilingue. Me gusta trabajar con individuos, familias y parejas. En mi trabajo yo trato de crear un ambiente seguro y tranquilo en cual la personas se puedan expresar sin ser juzgados. Mi terapia combina terapia de familia con terapia cognoscitiva, basado en la una vision multicultural.

I have worked in a variety of settings (mental health clinics, adolescent and family agencies, a college counseling center, private practice) and engaged in many different kinds of clinical training (social work, family therapy, psychoanalysis). These experiences, extensive travel, and my own pursuit of cross cultural interests have raised a number of recurring questions about human motivation. One central question has to do with what helps people overcome repetitive patterns of behavior that interfere with their having fulfilling lives. I work with each client as a unique entity, adjusting my approach to the particular needs of the person.

In private practice for many years, at the center of my work is my empathy, warmth and clarity. The roots of my work are grounded in psychodynamic psychotherapy, body-centered psychotherapy and expressive arts therapy. With this foundation I can be ally and guide to clients addressing issues of loss, trauma, the challenges of relationship, work, creativity blocks, illnesses, adoption and parenting. I strive to create a sacred space with clients where the insight, safety and intention needed for change, growth and transformation are possible.

CURRENTLY FULL WITH A LONG WAITLIST. Therapy is a rewarding way to understand yourself, heal, and grow. I have 15 years of experience supporting individuals, families, couples, and groups, helping people transform their lives and connect to their truest essence. No matter how much you are suffering, there is more right with you than there is wrong. I focus on your story, experiences, hopes, and strengths, and build on them. Whatever you're struggling with, you are not alone. I work best with those who are genuinely committed to and interested in their evolution and growth.
