Most of us learn early on to manage ourselves rather than understand ourselves. We get good at functioning, at holding it together, at enduring our feelings without actually feeling them. It works for awhile, and then it doesn't.

In individual therapy, we'll work with what's actually going on, not just the symptoms of it. That might mean processing something old that keeps showing up, untangling stories you've inherited about who you're supposed to be, or just finally having a space where you don't have to perform okayness.

I work with adults on these topics and more:

• Anxiety and depression

• Gender and sexuality

• Trauma via talk therapy or EMDR

• Existential questions and identity

• Relationship patterns and communication

• Self-compassion and personal values

• Kink and ethical non-monogamy

Sessions are private pay and sliding scale. My full individual rate is $130/hour with sliding scale spots based on income as low as $80/hour. If cost is a barrier, reach out anyway and we'll figure out what's possible.

Romantic relationships have an enormous impact on our day-to-day lives, which is why they can make life feel magical when they're working and deeply uncomfortable when they're not. We are rarely taught how to seek, create, and maintain healthy partnerships, and so many people find themselves repeating fights, missing intimacy, or worse. Relationships that exist outside heterosexual and/or monogamous stereotypes often contend with additional challenges due to discrimination, a lack of healthy examples, and more.

That's why I offer relationship counseling - to help romantic partners enhance their communication skills, clarify their needs, rediscover what ignited the relationship in the past, and explore the dreams and goals they share for the future. I am Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) trained counselor, but I also pull from Attachment Theory, The Gottman Method, and Developmental Relationship Counseling.

Sessions are private pay and sliding scale. My full rate for relationship counseling is $160/hour, with sliding scale spots based on income as low as $110/hour. If cost is a barrier, reach out anyway and we'll figure out what's possible.

Traditional therapy is wonderful - but it's not the only path to growth and healing! The power of groups and the power of storytelling have much to offer, which is why I run Therapeutically-Applied Role Playing Game (TARPG) groups!

As a certified therapeutic game master in the GametoGrow method, I believe that tabletop roleplaying games like Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) can infuse your mental health journey with fun, community, and creativity. Join like-minded others in a joint-storytelling adventure where you'll work towards personal goals through your character and develop helpful social and emotional skills as you bond with your party through adversity.
