Talking to a stranger about the hardest parts of your life is, admittedly, a pretty strange concept. At the same time, there’s something valuable about sitting with someone who isn’t your parent, partner, friend, or coworker. Therapy gives you room to think out loud, notice patterns you might miss on your own, and explore what’s been weighing on you without worrying about protecting someone else’s feelings or meeting their expectations.

Language & words matter. We define ourselves & our worldview with our words. How do we talk to ourselves? What does our inner critic sound like? Is that voice in your mind coming from you, or someone else? Is that voice supporting your goals, or keeping your nervous system stuck? The voice in our head and the words it speaks to us are habitual; it can cause a negative cycle if not explored. Therapy is an opportunity to engage in a healing relationship with that voice in your head. I am here to support you, guide you through that journey, and help break that negative cycle.

I work with helpers — parents, caregivers, professionals, faith leaders, first responders, service members, and the people everyone else relies on. The ones who show up, give, keep going, and quietly wonder, "But what about me?"

What are we meant to do during our lives? How do we discover & create meaning? I believe we are meant to connect with others and that meaning is discovered & created through rich, well-bonded relationships. This pairing of beliefs guides my clinical work.

I am an EMDR trained therapist who specializes in helping people work through complex and relational trauma. I offer an integrative approach to the treatment of anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges and life transitions. If you "think about your feelings" a lot, and have trouble "feeling your feelings" Perhaps you've developed some not so helpful coping skills to keep yourself safe, but now they no longer serve you. If so, we might be a great match! My approach is rooted in somatic experiencing and IFS parts work and that informs my work with individuals around their families of origin and difficult past experiences.

Codependency Therapists
What therapy types help with codependency problems?
Both couples and family therapy and cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) can help with the relationship difficulties referred to as codependency. Such problems typically include inappropriate feelings of responsibility for a loved one’s destructive behavior, irrational patterns of thinking about such behavior, and family interaction patterns in which the needs of one troubled member override the needs of others in a household.
What happens in therapy for codependency?
Spouses and family members learn and practice how to interact and support each other in a healthy way without sacrificing their own needs or well-being. They learn the limits of their responsibility for their loved ones and correct faulty patterns of thinking and feeling that underlie codependent behavior. Individuals may be encouraged to nurture an array of social relationships and to cultivate their own talents and interests so that they develop a healthy sense of self outside the family.
How does therapy help a person or couple overcome codependency?
Therapy helps people establish healthy ways of being in a relationship. Spouses and family members learn how to nurture and support one another without sacrificing their own needs or allowing the needs of one person to dominate the dynamic. Individuals learn how to say no and set boundaries, and how to maintain their own identity and self-esteem. Therapy helps people understand that they are not responsible for the feelings and actions of others. It also helps individuals deal with the turbulence that can come from living with a person suffering from such conditions as substance abuse and mental illness.
What is the goal of therapy for codependency?
One goal of therapy for codependency is to alleviate feelings of responsibility for and correct irrational patterns of thinking about loved ones whose behavioral problems override the needs of others in a household. Therapy helps people establish healthy boundaries of behavior and speak up for their own needs in a relationship. In addition, people learn how to maintain a healthy relationship, one in which both parties give and receive equally and are able to retain their own identity.
