Do you feel as if you spend your life trying to recover from past trauma, make current trauma stop, or get your life under control? Do you find the same painful patterns repeating in your relationships or in your life? Do you feel numb or find yourself "zoning out" with mindless activities? Do you want to overcome your past or improve your present so that your life truly fulfills you, that fits your true nature and your potential?

The people I work with often feel disconnected from the deep intimacy they desire with friends, family, and partners. After experiences of harm or trauma, relationships might feel risky, exhausting, or unsatisfying. Together we'll work to understand how you show up in relationships and why, exploring what it could look like to be more fully seen and loved.
My aim is to nurture a safe environment where you feel heard, held, and gently challenged as you observe your patterns, reclaim choice, grow self-compassion, and come into greater alignment with your hopes and values. Your autonomy and security are centered every step of the way.

I believe you are the authority on your own life. Within you exists the potential to express your authentic self and to live a fulfilling life. However, there are times in our lives when we may experience stress, depression, anxiety, anger, or complacency. When this happens it can be difficult to manage our lives effectively and with peace of mind. This is when professional support can be helpful. Whatever concerns you are struggling with, I will collaborate with you to help you identify your goals and develop a treatment approach to empower you to realize them.

Hello, I’m Sydney. I approach therapy as a collaborative and flexible relationship. One that supports your journey toward greater insight, emotional resilience, and nervous system regulation. We begin by establishing personal goals that fit your life and understanding of your experience. The work we do together is grounded in person-centered, multiculturally inclusive, liberation-based, emotion-focused, and somatic modalities. I believe that healing begins with feeling deeply seen, respected, and met where you are, in your own emotional journey.

Hi, I’m Imara! After nearly a decade in the ABA world, I’ve seen firsthand how deeply people can struggle when they feel misunderstood, pressured to mask parts of themselves, or disconnected from who they are. I view therapy as a collaborative process focused on self-understanding, growth, and creating a life that feels sustainable and authentic. I founded Self & Skill because I believe therapy should make space for the whole person while helping clients build practical skills, confidence, and support that actually fits their lives.

How many times have you wanted to just quit everything? Maybe you're burnt out, profoundly anxious, or crumbling under the pressure you've put on your shoulders. Maybe you felt like things weren't working for a while, but you told yourself to hold out a little longer in case it all changes. Or maybe you've been piling on promises and now there's too much going on to even know where to begin. And perhaps you've heard more than once in your life that you "really need to chill." If that sounds like you, I'm glad you're here.

Hi, I’m Kelsey and I specialize in helping adults (ages 18-60+) who are working through trauma, anxiety, depression, burnout, and life transitions. As a therapist, my style is warm, compassionate, and collaborative.
