If you’re here perusing these therapist profiles, it’s probably because something’s not quite right. Maybe you hate your job, feel stuck in it, or have trouble finding one that feels congruent for you. Maybe it’s some turbulence occurring in your relationship– or the absence of a relationship when you long for one. Or perhaps something awful happened and you just can’t get it out of your head.

Suffering presents itself in a number of ways- behaviors and relationships we desire to change, uncomfortable emotions, chronic health problems, and feeling out of touch with meaning in our lives. I aim to help clients not only feel better, but live a life according to their values. I work with adults across the lifespan, and address a range of concerns from adjustment to life changes, stress and health management, relationship concerns, and significant mental health conditions. I particularly enjoy helping others overcome trauma, phobias, panic disorder, and depression. I support diversity- all are welcome, including non traditional relationships; sex positive.

I believe pleasure and intimacy are key components to realizing your own worth. Whether you are looking to connect more deeply to yourself, a partner, or a community, I am here to reflect your own capacity for joy and fulfillment back to you. Therapy is about connection, and I bring my openness, curiosity, and sense of humor into my sessions. I use a blend of techniques from emotionally-focused therapy, somatic psychotherapy, sex therapy, and yoga to work with both individuals and partners.

Therapy is an act of self-love. It's a gift we give ourselves to transform our suffering into healing. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Associate and 200 Hr Yoga Teacher supporting those with past trauma, depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, eating disorders, and anyone who needs a safe space to process difficult experiences. For the last 8 years, I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, and families in foster care, crisis services, in-home, and hospital settings.

My practice is based on anti-oppressive principles & embodied awareness. I work with people of all sexualities & genders to address depression, anxiety, life transitions, chronic pain, family conflict, relationship issues, self-esteem, & trauma using a holistic approach to healing. I have expertise in addressing sexual violence & the traumatic effects of systems (racism, sexism, homophobia etc). I encourage clients to nurture their inner voice, to gently observe what happens in the present moment, & to engage actively in the therapeutic process. My practice is poly, kink & sex worker affirming.

It can be both rewarding and vulnerable to begin or continue therapy: I create a warm, non-judgmental space for reworking old patterns that may not serve you anymore. Life experiences, environment, circumstances, and cultural systems of power all shape our understanding of ourselves, of others, and of the world around us. Together we can explore what matters to you most, where you may feel stuck and how you can find more ease. To inform our work, I primarily draw on your history and relational experiences, your own body’s feedback, information from contemporary neuroscience, and our in-session interactions.

*I am currently on a wait list for new clients* Worried that your therapist is going to give you a blank stare as soon as you start talking about your sex life? Want more than just a nod and a "hmmm" from your therapist? Let's do this! I am passionate about providing non-pathologizing care for queer, nonmonogamous, kinky, and gender diverse individuals, relationships, and families. Together we will work through your growing pains and old stories and make an action plan that translates from session to real life. If you're ready to change something, and you're ready to start today- you've come to the right place.

I value the innate wisdom of each individual as the guiding force of our work together. With extensive training in serving diverse populations, I work through a Health at Every Size lens and welcome clients from all racial and cultural backgrounds, sexual orientations and gender identities. I specialize in the treatment of trauma and eating disorders and the intersection of attachment and sensory processing issues. I also work with life transitions, anxiety, depression, learning differences, issues impacting the LGBTQIA+ community, parenting and resolving shock trauma.

Telehealth available! I relish working with individuals of color, and LGBTQQIA+ and immigrant communities. I particularly love partnering with adolescents and young adults embarking on the task of identity formation. I work with Individuals ages 12+, as well as Parents (as a certified Triple P parenting provider), or Families. Working with me as a therapist you can expect someone who is warm, adaptable with evidence-based modalities, and focused on YOUR values. I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor and parenting provider. I speak Spanish fluently!

Struggling with depression or anxiety? Breaking patterns is hard, but you know you want change and meaningful redirection. Painful memories and recurrent conflict can strain relationships. Work stress gets in the way of being present and feeling fulfilled. People often work with me to get things moving when they feel blocked or stuck, to develop calm where uncertainty has them off balance. Our work will reveal insight to restore stability, address trauma, and change outlook towards realizing an improved sense of self. Together we can work to identify and harness strength, addressing challenges with new clarity and inspiration.

Hi Y'all, I am a licensed clinical social worker who practices a direct-nonjudgmental approach and looks to create safe environments with all my clients. I believe in empowering clients through teaching them coping skills rooted in somatics, encouraging mastery and openness, and helping them identify personal strengths to take successful steps towards their goals. I specialize in the treatment of eating disorders, trauma and PTSD, anxiety, personality disorders, body image issues, and life transitions. I value honesty and transparency, client autonomy, and the promotion of Health at Every Size and all bodies are good bodies.

I whole-heartedly believe that you are the expert on you! I hold the framework in our work together that you contain the inner wisdom around what you need for healing and growth. My role is to help you identify, strengthen, and listen to that inner guidance. At times this inner-knowing can become muted or distorted.

You have this one life; it should feel the way you want it to! But maybe instead it feels overwhelming and heavy. Maybe you wonder "Why can't I stop over-thinking?" "What's wrong with me?" "Why do I feel like this?" You've tried to change and you still end up feeling awful about yourself or frustrated in your relationships. Are you ready to feel differently and to have more confidence in dealing with whatever comes each day? Do you want to feel more in control even when your emotions are strong? Do you want to feel more at ease & connected in your relationships with others? Let's change things! Life CAN feel the way you want it to.

Pain and trauma make it hard to be fully present with others and ourselves. My goal is to help you build the capacity for deep, authentic connections. I support folks of all gender identities and sexual orientations heal from eating disorders, trauma, attachment issues, anxiety, and depression. My work is somatic, anti-oppressive, and relational. As a Health At Every Size© clinician, I firmly believe all bodies are worthy of dignity, respect, and care. I provide an open, non-judgmental, and warm space to process emotions with curiosity and compassion.

Seeking help as you cope with life's difficult circumstances is hard, and it is my honor and privilege to work with you as your therapist. My role in your wellness journey is to provide guidance and support as you learn healthy, effective coping mechanisms to deal with both acute and chronic stressors in your life.

*Currently accepting new clients!* I work with older adolescents, young adults, and adults of all ages to address concerns including depression, anxiety, trauma & PTSD, grief & loss, guilt & shame, life transitions, LGBTQ+ concerns, and spiritual/religious concerns (including but not limited to recovery from religious trauma, cult experiences, and similar). I especially enjoy working with clients to build emotion regulation, self-care, and self-compassion. I'm wholeheartedly committed to serving clients of any cultural, racial, gender, sexual, or spiritual identity in an inclusive, affirming, and anti-oppressive practice.

**ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS** Sometimes we struggle and need help finding our way back to the life we want to live. We may experience feelings of anxiety, depression, hopelessness, and guilt. As a therapist, I aim to create a safe space for my clients to explore their feelings and experiences, and ultimately move towards the things they value. My practice is rooted in compassion, acceptance, and non-judgement. As a LGBTQI affirming therapist, I also recognize the role that oppression plays in creating and maintaining psychological pain. As such, the queer community is a priority in my work.

I enjoy working with people who seek to discover new ways of moving through life. Sometimes this means working together to uncover new strategies for managing painful thoughts, memories and emotions. It may also involve identifying problematic patterns of behavior and exploring more adaptive coping strategies. I also enjoy working with people who wish to improve their navigation of various types of relationships including romantic, family, professional and peer relationships. Additionally, I also like helping people uncover new meaning and purpose in life.

Congratulations on embarking upon the next step in your journey! Each of these steps — every experience of bliss, fear, frustration, or sorrow — have all lead you to this very moment. The challenges and complexities of your day-to-day life may have lead you here. The traumas, losses, and heartaches of the past have, too. And while I would rather that each of us would be spared these experiences — it is my hope that I may have a chance to partner alongside you as you grow and, ideally, heal from each of them.
