My clients come to therapy because they are looking for support in facing life transitions; they may be dealing with a health diagnosis, new parenting stage, or shifting family dynamics. Often, when life is difficult or not going the way we had planned, we fight against what IS with what we think it should be. My clients want to find joy and purpose in the life they have and are looking for a safe place to explore their life stories to find strength and light. I also work with interracial families on racial identity development and with white folks wanting to do antiracist work while exploring what it means to be white.

Hi, I'm Seth. If you are experiencing dissociation (DID, OSDD), depersonalization/derealization, or complex trauma (PTSD, CPTSD), I would love to help. You may feel lost, stuck, or alone or like the noise and chaos in your mind is too much. Parts of you may be at constant odds with each other, or in panic mode.

Accepting new clients! You grew up being the responsible one, managing a parent's moods, earning love, keeping the peace. Now you're exhausted. You overthink everything, feel guilty saying no, and can't shake the sense that something is off even though your childhood "wasn't that bad." You're a millennial healing from emotionally immature family dynamics, and the patterns they taught you are showing up in every relationship you have, including the one with yourself. I help you name what happened, understand why you adapted, and finally feel at home in who you are.

I enjoy working with clients that are ready to explore their mental health. I have a strong belief that people can change and grow through any troubles they may have faced, or are facing. Sometimes, we just need a little help. That is where I get to play my part in a client's life.
I really enjoy clients who want to be in therapy and are ready to challenge the things that may be holding them back, or obstacles in their way. Clients who are looking for a teammate, rather than someone to tell them how to live their lives, are going to find that I am a good fit for them.

Is attachment-based therapy the same as attachment therapy?
Attachment-based therapy may be confused with what is called “attachment therapy” (sometimes called “holding therapy”), a discredited and dangerous approach to treating children with attachment disorders, autism, or other mental health concerns. Attachment therapy—not attachment-based therapy—may involve restraining a child, forcing eye contact, and other coercive or abusive techniques. None of these practices are used in attachment-based therapy and the two modalities are in no way related.
What should I expect from attachment-based therapy?
Attachment-based therapy is based on attachment theory, which posits that children’s early relationships with their caregivers strongly influence their ability to navigate the world later in life. Thus, adults who seek attachment-based therapy should expect to deeply explore their childhood, identifying the dynamics or experiences that disrupted their attachment and the steps necessary to overcome challenges that arose as a result. Parents and children should expect to explore the possible factors that disrupted the parent-child relationship and work toward restoring trust and connection.
How long does attachment-based therapy last?
Certain forms of attachment-based therapy, especially those designed for parents and children, last for a set number of sessions; for example, Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-Up, a specific attachment-based approach for young children who have undergone early adversity, unfolds over 10 one-hour sessions. When attachment-based therapy is practiced on adults or combined with other modalities, it may not last a specific length of time; clients may wish to ask prospective therapists how long they expect treatment to take.
Does attachment-based therapy work?
Most of the research on attachment-based therapy focuses on children and adolescents. Some of this research shows a positive effect, especially for attachment-based family therapy (ABFT). Other studies, however, have found that attachment-based therapy is no more effective than other approaches to childhood depression, anxiety, or suicidality. Less is known about the therapy’s efficacy on adult populations.
