My personal philosophy is that therapy is a tool of empowerment and that the process of working through problems with an empathetic counselor can lead clients to new solutions and to new ways of meeting life’s challenges. My energy as a counselor is focused on creating a safe space for clients of all ages, backgrounds, and beliefs. I am trained in EMDR and use it to enhance my trauma training. I also integrate tools from evidence-based therapies that are person-centered, strengths-based, and solution-focused.

My name is Chase. I see individuals and couples, adolescents and adults, who are experiencing behavioral, emotional, relationship and existential challenges. I draw on various sources of wisdom, historical and contemporary, Eastern and Western, to assist in overcoming such challenges as sexual misbehavior, or other compulsive behaviors, nihilism, depression, social anxiety, perfectionism, relationship discord, and personality disorders. I work especially well with those who feel misunderstood by or need something different from what is offered by typical approaches.

You might be feeling disconnected from someone you love—or from yourself. Maybe you're stuck in patterns that leave you exhausted, anxious, or uncertain about the future. My clients often carry quiet emotional burdens and are longing for clarity, connection, or simply a place to feel seen. They don’t just want tools; they want relief, understanding, and hope that things can feel different. Therapy becomes a space where they can finally exhale and begin to make sense of it all.

In therapy, we can unpack the barriers that keep you feeling stuck and help you make sustainable changes. As we work towards building a better relationship with yourself, you can feel more peace, clarity and confidence. My hope is for you to finally believe it when you say “I am good enough.”

In my mind, the ideal client is someone who has recognized that some aspect of their life is no longer working and is ready to take steps to restore balance. This person is seeking help to get their life back on track. I enjoy working with a variety of clients, including individuals, couples, and families. The people who seek counseling to validate that change is necessary, and who desire professional guidance to collaborate in identifying their natural strengths (or at least their potential capabilities) to overcome difficulties, tend to be goal-oriented. These clients are especially exciting to work with and a safe space to be in.

Divorce Therapists
How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?
Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.

What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?
There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioral, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.

When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?
When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.

How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
