I support women and LGBTQ+ individuals who feel disconnected from themselves, questioning their thoughts, emotions, relationships, or sense of identity. You may be carrying grief that others don’t fully see, healing from painful experiences, or trying to understand how certain relationships left you feeling unheard, diminished, powerless, or like you were never “enough.” These experiences can often show up as anxiety, depression, complicated grief, trauma responses, and the lasting impact of emotionally harmful or narcissistic relationships.

Navigating mood disorders such as depression, anxiety, and trauma-related challenges can feel overwhelming, leaving you disconnected from yourself and those around you. These experiences can shape thoughts, emotions, and relationships in ways that feel isolating. Therapy is a space to explore these patterns, uncover new ways of coping, and build a sense of stability.

Pain cannot be avoided. It is only magnified when we try to shield ourselves from it. But we don't have to be in this process alone. When life isn't unfolding the way you've imagined, the step to pursue therapy can be invigorating and daunting at the same time. It would be an honor to join you on your journey. I have worked with individuals for over a decade, partnering to manage life transitions, trauma, grief, shame, relationships, substance use, depression and mental illness.

Psychosis Therapists
What’s the most effective treatment for psychosis?
The most effective treatment for psychosis is coordinated specialty care. In this model, a team of professionals works with a patient to address all aspects of the underlying disorder. This approach incorporates individual or group therapy, employment and education support, family support and education, medication management (which often involves low doses of antipsychotics), and case management to facilitate problem-solving as needed.
When should people seek treatment for psychosis?
People should seek immediate treatment at the earliest indication of psychosis. Symptoms include delusions, hallucinations, disorganized or blocked speech, and agitated body movements. Early signs that a person may be developing a disorder that will lead to psychosis include suspiciousness of others, memory problems and distractibility, an inability to think clearly, rapid or nonsensical speech, withdrawal from friends or family, aggression toward others, and sensitivity to bright lights or noises.
What if psychosis is left untreated?
Without treatment, psychosis can have significant repercussions, including injuries, job loss, homelessness, financial or legal trouble, ruptured relationships, and suffering for the person and their family. While early treatment for psychosis often yields the best results, there is no point past which it becomes useless to seek treatment. At any point, treatment can make a difference.
How do I get someone else to seek treatment for psychosis?
It’s extremely difficult to watch a loved one suffer from hallucinations, delusions, and other elements of psychosis—sometimes exacerbated by their fears of treatment. Have a conversation with them in a quiet space and maintain a calm, supportive tone. Share your concerns about behaviors you’ve observed, suggest treatment, and explain the potential benefits. Listen carefully to their responses. The person may not be ready after one conversation, but with time, they may come around.
