I am experienced helping people with eating disorders, mood disorders (depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder), trauma, and PTSD. Adoption and blended family problems are also close to my heart and I enjoy helping others in these areas. I am partnered with The Headstrong Project, which helps Veterans and their families when the Veteran is diagnosed with PTSD. I am the spouse of a career US Marine. I work with those aged 16 and older. If you need someone who can really listen to you and help you figure out how to change your life for the better, I can help you.

With deeper understanding of ourselves and our experiences comes an ability to intentionally navigate the world and live a more fulfilling life. Taking a dynamic approach to therapy, I work most effectively with clients who want to increase their understanding of why they do what they do, and how past relationships (both with themselves and others) affect current behavior, concerns, and "stuck points". It is with this new understanding that they can change patterns that are no longer working for them.

You are living a daily battle in your head about what you can eat, how much you should exercise, if you are worthy of taking up space. You are consumed by counting calories and by the negative voice inside that tells you, you’ll never be good enough or thin enough, smart enough or pretty enough. You are fed up with how the society/culture tells you how you should look and feel and behave. Your behaviors have you feeling exhausted and depleted and you wonder how you can go on another day. Others may think you have it all together on the outside, but the mental torture inside is killing you and feel like your life is shrinking.

Hi! I’m Lindsey Shaffer (she/her/hers), and I believe therapy should be a safe, judgment-free space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences openly. My approach is all about working together—my goal is to be alongside you as we work through whatever challenges you’re facing, and help you tap into the resilience you already have.

It takes courage to ask for help. I know what it’s like to feel hopeless, scared, guilty, and ashamed on top of everything else that’s been going on. Maybe you’re in a place that you never thought you’d be. Maybe you’ve been struggling with something your whole life. Or maybe you’re just sick and tired of being sick and tired. I have almost 20 years of experience working with people dealing with trauma, addiction, depression, anxiety, and the emotional pain that comes with having a personality disorder. And while experience matters, I believe a big reason my outcomes are good is simply because I love what I do for a living.

You know this sudden rush of emotions, when your heart is racing with memories of a time long gone but not forgotten? Maybe your palms are getting damp, and you feel your throat tightening - almost choking - as you remember painful memories of either childhood abuse, a painful breakup, or other shadows of the past – it's like being caught in a storm of past pain with a ton of emotions. Life is rough and now more than ever people are feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and uncertain about how they should manage their relationships, careers, and lives — however, you don’t have to walk through this on your own! :)
