Self-Harming Therapists in 97214

Let's shoot straight to the point. You're here because you; A) at a loss with your kid these days; B) can't stand your parents; or C) don't know what to do about yourself. I'm here to help you, your child, or your family feel more human.

I am available for new clients, individually or family sessions. I am also taking clients for a teen DBT skills group (ages 12-18 if still in high school). I see our work together as a team that balances putting in the hard work while understanding you have to have some laughs along the way! Above all modalities, the therapeutic relationship is what I value most in our work together. I primarily use Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Art Therapy. Despite my degree in art therapy, my dual license allows me to provide more traditional talk therapy, too.

Hi there. I work with adults to unlock their full potential. My approach is driven by the belief that each person is a unique being deserving of support and unconditional positive regard. I see individuals as experts on themselves, valuing their entire well-being, and I am a firm believer in treating the whole person. By supporting individuals in caring for their emotional, mental, spiritual, and physical health, I aim to empower them to build a life they are proud of and enjoy living.

Are you looking to make changes in your life but are unsure of where to start? It can be especially challenging to navigate life right now with the pandemic, economic uncertainty, and the unveiling of the multitude of intertwined systems of oppression we find ourselves in at this time. You are not alone in experiencing concerns, outrage, and fear. I am here to accompany you in navigating these challenges and also acknowledging the joy in life. You are deserving of support and a space to talk openly. I am someone you can trust to process your fears and anxieties with as well as cultivate hope for your future.

Currently I work with people struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, addictions, and grief. While I have received training in a number of approaches, my goal is to offer you interventions and tools that best fit for you. I am most influenced by IFS, DBT, EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Mindfulness, and Expressive Art Therapy. I look through the lens of trauma, and I take a behaviorally specific approach to support experiences of transformation into long term change and growth. You can expect to have tools and skills to practice in between session to support your work.

Finding a therapist you can identify with can be difficult. I offer lived experience as a BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ identifying person, a parent, and serve a diverse, and often marginalized, population of beautifully resilient humans. Addressing holistic health is my passion. Whether you are working through identity, trauma, family of origin issues, LGBTQIA concerns, parenting, grief and loss, suicidal thoughts, anxiety or self care, come join me in this safe space as we use a variety of tools to help you live a more full and fulfilled life.

You may appear "fine" to those around you, but inside your emotions are growing more and more intense and out of control. You no longer feel the connection you once did with the people who mean the most to you. You're overwhelmed by the constant pressure to meet an ever-increasing number of new expectations and demands. You desperately want to, "just let it go," but you don't know how. You wonder how you got to this place. You're here because you're barely able to keep your head above water and if you don't get help soon, you're afraid you might go under.

Hello! I am so glad you're here. As you’ve embarked on your search for a therapist, I’m sure many questions have come up. What kind of therapist do I need? How will I tell my story? Who will I trust and connect with? Will I ever feel better? While many of these questions are yours to answer, I hope I can help make the search easier. Like you, I’ve struggled with my mental health, worked to maintain connections and boundaries with others, explored my identity and overall traveled the ups and downs of life. In some ways we may be the same, and in other ways not.

At this time, I am not accepting new clients. Please check back after 6/1/22. Thanks so much! I am passionate about helping others, and believe firmly that each of us holds the answers to our deepest questions and most significant struggles. I believe strongly in identifying what works for each client and tailoring therapy based upon such. I work with an array of issues, including anxiety, depression, self-esteem, body image, life changes, adjustment, relational issues and past trauma.

Hey there! I enjoy working with teens and young adults who are navigating transitions, feelings of overwhelm and issues around self-esteem.

I specialize in working with young adults with a range of concerns, including trauma, adult ADHD, relationships, anxiety, depression, and gender/sexual identity concerns. My style is warm, collaborative, and strength-based. I believe that a strong therapeutic relationship is the foundation for healing and growth, thus I strive to create an empathically attuned environment that facilitates deeper self-understanding, emotional awareness and acceptance, and creative problem-solving to help you move forward.

I want to help you achieve clarity and comfort. If you are experiencing anxiety, anger, sadness, confusion, or other emotions that interfere with your life and relationships, I will work with you to better deal with current stressors and your emotional and behavioral reactions to them. Often, this involves working to heal past traumas. I work relationally and incorporate learnings from psychodynamic, attachment, mindfulness and existential theories.

Currently Accepting Clients for July 2024. As your therapist, I strive to create a safe space to process, set goals, and work on making meaningful change in your life. Right now you may feel "stuck" and unsure of how to move forward. You are dealing with unresolved trauma, depression, anxiety or other complications that are making life difficult and make your feel disconnected from yourself and others. I believe that together we can work towards helping you feel more joy, motivation, and empowerment in your life.

Does your child or teen struggle to communicate their thoughts and feelings? Have you noticed a change in their behavior or have concerns about their self-confidence? Could you use some new strategies to communicate and emotionally connect with your child? Participating in therapy can be a great place to start the journey of developing new ways to build family connection, establish a safe space for your child to explore big feelings, and to learn new ways to navigate complex life stressors that impact your child and family's overall functioning alongside a trained professional who can provide individualized care and guidance.

Are you struggling to understand a relationship that may be abusive, trying to heal from trauma, or need support with gender, identity, or LGBTQ2SIA+ issues? Health Allies specializes in healing from narcissistic abuse, domestic violence, PTSD, and trauma. We also have many therapist who specialize and identify with the LGBTQ2SIA+ community. If you have struggled with any of the above, we can help you sort out your goals for healing and help you get to a better place.

Enrollment for my virtual DBT group is open, and our next cohort starts on May 20th. Our group includes a weekly 75-minute DBT group, monthly 30-minute individual session with myself, a custom workbook, and support from peers and professionals in our community site. My goal is to assist clients in learning and utilizing Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) skills in their daily lives. DBT can help with mental health, relationship, and career issues. I work with people from all backgrounds to celebrate their success.

My therapy approach is client centered focusing on choice, strengths and exploration. I am committed to helping children work through issues such as anxiety, transitions, emotional regulation, peer relationships, family conflict and self-esteem. I work primarily with children and adolescents using play, art, sand tray and expressive art therapy interventions. I work closely with families who wish to strengthen their child/parent relationship to help better understand the dynamics that make up a family system. I also work with adoptees and LGBTQ+ youth who struggle with identity issues and help them learn more about who they are.

Welcome! I'm so glad you're here. I believe we all, regardless of our situation, have the potential to achieve an optimal state of well-being. If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, self-harm, grief, family conflict, anger, or self-identity, among other things, let's meet so that we can discover new paths forward.
