Specialty Areas
Anxiety & Panic:
Anxiety can feel like a constant companion, an inner critic or alarm that never stops ringing. It often shows up with self-doubt, making it hard to trust your choices or feel grounded. Panic, too, can arrive suddenly and intensely, leaving you overwhelmed and disconnected from your sense of safety.
Together, we’ll gently explore the roots of anxiety and panic and build a more compassionate way of responding when they arise. With support and practice, you can cultivate steadiness, self-trust, and a kinder inner voice, even when anxiety is present.

Burnout & Overwhelm:
Burnout isn’t just feeling stressed. It’s profound exhaustion, decreased feelings of accomplishment, and a growing sense of disconnect. It often shows up when you’ve been holding too much for too long, especially within systems or environments that expect constant output.
Here, you’ll find a calm place to rest, reflect, and heal. We’ll work together to uncover the beliefs and pressures contributing to burnout, reclaim your sense of worth beyond productivity, and rebuild a relationship with rest, balance, achievement, and genuine fulfillment.

Perfectionism, Self-Doubt, & Self-Criticism:
Perfectionism can make it feel like nothing is ever quite good enough, interfering with decision-making and undermining opportunities for real enjoyment and growth. It often involves self-doubt, imposter feelings, and harsh self-judgment, especially for those navigating environments where they are marginalized, underrepresented, or facing extra scrutiny.
In our work together, we’ll take a curious, supportive look at these internal pressures. By understanding where these patterns come from, we can begin to dismantle them and facilitate a more helpful, compassionate, authentic relationship with yourself, one rooted in worthiness, not perfection.

Traumatic Stress, Moral Injury, & Workplace Trauma:
• Trauma and moral injury can leave you carrying experiences that feel heavy, disorienting, or difficult to name. You may be navigating the aftermath of direct trauma, systemic harm, impossible decisions, or environments where your values and humanity were compromised. For first responders, caregivers, educators, healthcare workers, advocates, and others working within strained or harmful systems, repeated exposure to others’ pain, injustice, crisis, or suffering can also create vicarious traumatic stress that accumulates quietly over time.
• In therapy, we’ll create space to process what you have witnessed, survived, or had to carry, without minimizing the real impact of those experiences. Together, we’ll work toward restoring safety, reconnecting with your values and sense of purpose, strengthening boundaries and self-trust, and supporting sustainable healing so you can move forward without losing yourself along the way.
Neurodiversity & Executive Functioning Challenges:
Neurodivergence is not a flaw or failure; it is a natural variation in how brains process, feel, connect, focus, and engage. Differences with attention, sensory processing, organization, time, transitions, task initiation, emotional intensity, or executive functioning can become especially painful when you have spent years trying to fit into systems not designed with your needs in mind. For many late-diagnosed or self-identified neurodivergent adults, including women and people socialized to mask, shrink, or overfunction, diagnosis can bring relief, grief, anger, clarity, and a new way of understanding your life.
Therapy can be a space to explore neurodiversity with compassion, curiosity, and respect. Together, we’ll identify what supports your nervous system and daily life, challenge shame and internalized expectations, make room for rest and recovery from masking, and develop tools, accommodations, and self-advocacy strategies that fit your life. Our goal is not to make you less yourself, but to help you live with more ease, self-trust, and alignment.
Therapy for People with Disabilities & Chronic Health Conditions:
Living with disability, chronic illness, chronic pain, neurodivergence, or complex health needs can shape your daily life, relationships, identity, energy, and sense of possibility in ways others may not always understand. You may be navigating ableism, discrimination, grief, uncertainty, access and accommodation barriers, changing capacity, exhaustion, or the pressure related to masking, making others feel comfortable, constantly educating others while advocating for yourself, and minimizing your needs while carrying far more than people can see.
Therapy can be a place to be met with understanding, respect, flexibility, and care. Together, we’ll make room for the complexity of your experience, challenge shame and internalized ableism, build connection to real joy and agency, honor your full humanity, and support a more compassionate and relationship with your body, mind, needs, boundaries, and self-worth.
Therapy for LGBTQIA+ Individuals:
Exploring gender, sexuality, relationships, identity, belonging, and authenticity can be powerful, tender, and deeply personal work. For LGBTQIA+ individuals, this process may also include navigating stigma, discrimination, rejection, real threats and fear for safety, internalized messages, or the exhaustion of moving through systems and relationships that do not always affirm your full self.
This is a space where all parts of you are welcome. Together, we’ll honor your lived experience, acknowledge the real impact of oppression and bias, and explore identity, healing, connection, and self-worth with curiosity, affirmation, and compassion. Our work will focus on supporting you in embracing your authentic self and building a life that feels more aligned, safe, and yours.
Intrusive Thoughts & Obsessive‑Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
OCD is often misunderstood as being overly “type‑A,” but for those living with it, OCD can be exhausting and distressing. Intrusive, unwanted thoughts, images, or urges can feel alarming or out of alignment with who you are, often followed by an urgent need to find certainty or prevent harm through checking, reassurance‑seeking, mental review, avoidance, or other compulsive responses.
Together, we’ll examine how OCD pulls you into cycles of doubt and imagined possibilities and practice responding in ways that interrupt those patterns. Over time, this work supports greater tolerance for uncertainty, renewed trust in yourself, and more freedom to live your life without OCD calling the shots.
Depression & Low Mood:
Depression can bring a heaviness, emptiness, or numbness that makes even simple tasks or everyday life feel overwhelming. You might feel disconnected from joy, energy, or a sense of meaning, and it can be hard to reach out when you’re hurting.
In this space, you can bring all of that at your own pace. Together, we’ll explore your experience with care and curiosity, identify patterns that are keeping you stuck, and reconnect you with the supports, strengths, and inner resources that can help you heal and move toward a more hopeful, grounded sense of self.
Life Transitions & Personal Growth:
Life’s transitions, whether exciting, unexpected, or deeply painful, can leave you feeling unsettled and unsure of your next steps. Changes in school, career and work, family roles, relationships and connection, health and ability status, death and loss, or identity can all challenge your sense of stability and direction.
Here, you’ll have support as you navigate these moments. Together, we’ll explore what this transition means for you, strengthen your resilience, and reconnect you with your values and sense of direction so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.
Family Therapy for Parents, Caregivers, & Siblings
Supporting a loved one with severe and persistent mental illness (e.g., psychosis, bipolar disorder) or substance misuse can be exhausting, heartbreaking, and deeply isolating. Parents, caregivers, and siblings are often carrying worry, grief, confusion, and the ongoing strain of trying to help while also managing the impact on their own lives and relationships.
In family therapy, we’ll create space to process the complexity of these experiences, strengthen communication, increase understanding about the condition(s) and explore ways of responding that support both your loved one and your own well-being. Together, we can work toward greater clarity, connection, boundaries, and resilience during challenges that can feel overwhelming to navigate alone.
