As a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, I have extensive experience helping individuals navigate challenging times. With training in sex addiction therapy and partner relational and betrayal trauma, I am equipped to guide you through and beyond these difficulties. Additionally, I am skilled in EMDR, a technique that aids in processing and healing from trauma. I understand that everyone faces their own unique challenges. Drawing on my expertise, experience, and diverse training, I am adept at finding personalized solutions that will work for you. Creating a safe and nurturing environment, I encourage you to seek help and support as we work together to overcome your problems and face life's obstacles. Specializing in areas such as partner relational & betrayal trauma, sex addiction, sexual offending behavior, anxiety, stress, overwhelm, depression, low mood, lack of joy, partner-relational issues, overwhelming emotions, and thoughts, I am dedicated to providing empathetic support. It is my utmost goal and passion to assist individuals with their internal struggles and everyday life.

The concept of self-love is a mystery because you often default to a painful pattern of beating yourself up. Being productive is important to you but instead you feel overwhelmed and burnt out. You want to be in a connected flow with your partner but rather you are constantly at odds leaving you feeling lonely and isolated. Cultivating deeper relationships is a value to you but you feel disconnected, anxious and stressed. These and other of life’s great emotional impasses are what often lead people to therapy. I believe the most valuable impact therapy can have on you is a deeper understanding of yourself and who you want to show up as in the world. Through consistent, gentle, and thoughtful investigation of oneself, there can be considerable growth. The deeper we are able to go together, the more attuned you will become with yourself and others. I provide my clients with directive, empowering therapy aimed at challenging you to look at yourself in a more introspective and curious way. My clients walk away from therapy feeling inspired and motivated to make meaningful change in their life.  My main areas of focus include: entrepreneurs, entertainment industry professionals, gay men & couples.

IN PERSON, phone & video sessions available. Specialize in: Relationship issues, depression, anxiety, self-harm, addiction, trauma, life transitions, and abuse (domestic, childhood & sexual). Finding a new perspective on life..... HAPPINESS...What is happiness? At times, despite all your efforts, it may seem like things do not work out the way we have intended. Life is not always easy. We all face struggles every day. As a counselor, my goal is to help you reach the level of happiness YOU deserve! There may become a time when just going through the motions of everyday life, just does not work anymore. Happiness is out there, but grasping it has not been possible. Achieving the happiness you deserve, is one of my primary goals as a counselor.

Practical, non-judgemental, with a goal of moving forward. Are you a struggling couple or individual, feeling stuck and emotionally tired? Are you a couple or individual ready for the next step in your relationship or in life!? I bring a variety of skills and compassion and experience to the room. I aim to help you feel stronger, calmer, and regain a sense of hope for your future, for your relationship, for happiness. I have two main areas of focus: Relationship skills and emotion regulation. For couples, I have been certified in the couples program Mastering The Mysteries of Love. For individuals and their families I have been intensively trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, helpful for those struggling with emotional regulation, relationship, and impulse control problems. I work from a goal oriented approach, looking at short term and long term goals, and keeping the focus on solvable issues, or assisting in finding acceptance. I worked in a psychiatric setting for 15 years, and managed the clinical team for 8. I have had a private practice since 2004. I have worked in a corporate setting as a quality coach and management trainer helping businesses and school organizations change for the better.

Together, we will explore your personal values so you can make choices that feel authentic—rather than fear-based—and create a more meaningful, fulfilling life. I specialize in: • Anxiety therapy (generalized anxiety, panic, stress management) • Life transitions (divorce, dating, premarital counseling, marriage, career shifts, parenting changes) • Depression and relationship issues I believe that healthy relationships with others begin with building a stronger, more compassionate relationship with yourself. My goal is to help you reduce anxiety, gain insight, and move toward lasting change.

Hi, my name is Allison. I've been a therapist for thirty years, working with individuals and teens who have experienced trauma. I specialize in attachment, complex developmental trauma, and relationship challenges. I work with individuals who have been exposed to early or chronic trauma, violence, neglect, abandonment, and attachment disruptions. These experiences can create challenging or disabling behavioral patterns affecting the body, heart, and mind. Complex trauma related to grief, loss, neglect, abuse, and abandonment can make individuals or parents feel overwhelmed, easily triggered, and chronically anxious or depressed. Learning effective strategies to create a healing path for your life and journey is always possible. We cannot shame ourselves into change! Seeking help is one of the bravest things we can do for ourselves. Breaking the pattern of intergenerational trauma allows us to become who we were truly meant to be ... our most authentic self.

Seeking help is a courageous yet highly practical decision. I commend anyone who is serious about seeking understanding, clarity, healing, change and growth. Finding the right therapist is a highly individual choice. I am grateful you took the time to review my profile. In my experience, there are many reasons why people decide to begin therapy, counseling or coaching. It may be to address fairly common problems like anxiety or depression. Other times I find it's about learning more effective means of managing emotions brought on by stressful experiences or life transitions. Or the reason may be about improving dysfunctional, conflicted marriage, family or workplace relationships. Still, others seek me out as a guide for self-exploration, general growth and dealing with the 'givens' in life. Regardless of your reason for seeking a therapeutic relationship, working with me can provide the insight, support and strategic focus you need to meet - and overcome - many of life's challenges. I combine my past experience as a results-oriented business executive with my education and training as a compassionate, caring, wise therapist to help my clients get to the root of their problems, deal more effectively with today's challenges and move towards the full life and future they envision. I believe that each of has the capacity to grow and change and that we are not powerless to change the path of our lives. If you or someone you know is looking for a trustworthy, discerning therapist who can blend clinical excellence with extensive life experience in family, community, academic and business settings, please give me a call. It would be my pleasure to learn more about your situation and explain how I can be of help.

My approach to therapy is compassionate, collaborative, and goal oriented to meet each client's unique needs. I believe that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy, and that a flexible and individualized approach is essential for creating meaningful and lasting change. Having worked with individuals, couples, and families for over 12 years, I have developed expertise in addressing a multitude of challenges. These specialties include anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, grief, loss, anger, and relationship issues. I draw from a range of evidence-based therapies and techniques to tailor treatment to the specific needs and goals of each client. Some of the therapies and techniques I draw from include dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), Gottman method, mindfulness-based approaches, and trauma-focused therapies. If you are looking for a supportive and non-judgmental therapist to help you navigate life's challenges, I am here to help. Let's work together to create solutions, solve problems, and to help you feel more empowered and fulfilled in your life.

One of the greatest gifts we have to offer is calm in the midst of chaos. If you are looking for a therapist for you or someone you care about then somewhere there is turmoil. Rarely do we seek help when things are good in our lives. My job is to be the sounding board so that you can process in a safe non threatening environment what is going on in your life that is causing distress. Sometimes the process is to get you unstuck and help you push through a decision that needs to be made. Or, it is to slow you down from being in a reactive phase and then move toward a proactive state. Learning how to pause and recognize the things in which we have control over is a gift because then you can move towards decreasing frustration and anxiety. Learning to focus on your strengths and the strengths of others allows us to experience our world in a more positive manner. It is often difficult to experience what is good in our life when we focus on the bad. And when we know what is good, right, or happy we can do more of it! Leaning mindful techniques will help increase internal and external awareness. Increasing communication skills will help us to connect our reality to others. Please join me in the process...

My name is Jeremiah (He, Him) and I'm an openly gay therapist whose passion is to help couples and individuals in the LGBTQ+ Community like you have healthier relationships, as well as helping you to navigate the coming out journey and the unique complexities that come with that lifelong process.

To learn more about me and the services I provide, please check out my website by clicking "Visit Website" below my profile picture. I use an attachment-based perspective called emotionally focused therapy to help you have a better understanding of your emotions so that you can be more secure with yourself and more confident in expressing yourself and your needs to others. I believe in the power that comes from being your most authentic self, so I often make use of self-disclosure to help you see what it looks like to put theory into action, and clients often share how meaningful it is to them to feel like they have a therapist who can relate and understand them. In our first session, my focus will be to get a general picture of who you are and begin collaborating on goals for our therapy journey together. Overall, my general hope is that you will learn: What your attachment style is, how it has developed, create a new, positive inner child voice that you no longer feel criticized or defeated by; and that you will develop a secure attachment style in order for you to pursue your most authentic self and have lasting, joyful, satisfying relationships.

It is my goal to help clients actualize their full potential and resolve challenges in their lives. By working in collaboration with clients, we will discover what is getting in the way of you fulfilling your hopes and dreams. You may be feeling stuck, unmotivated, or hopeless because of past hurts, conflicts, and doubts you may have experienced. You are not alone. Our work together will assist you in finding and anticipating the good, so you can enjoy it. Your destiny awaits you on the road you have chosen to avoid. Remember, the path is formed by walking on it.

Whatever life may be putting you through, I am glad you found your way here. Maybe you feel overwhelmed with anxiety, depression, neurodiversity, poor body image, intense emotions, or a whole list of other struggles that may feel unacceptable. As a client centered therapist, I am overjoyed to welcome all parts of you with open arms, warmth, and kindness. My goal is never to change you, just simply to know you. In my practice we will work toward your goals in a judgement free space using trauma informed, integrative and gestalt therapy with a dash of education and empowerment. I have experience working with adults, teens, and children managing struggles that come with depression, anxiety, body dysmorphia, grief, adjustment issues, interpersonal concerns, and trauma. I also have a special interest and much experience working with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). I believe that what makes us different makes us beautiful and I strive in my practice to destigmatize what makes us different and embrace this diagnosis as a strength. The world needs more people who don’t fit the mold and as Thomas Armstrong, PhD once said: “Instead of pretending there is hidden away in a vault somewhere a perfectly ‘normal’ brain to which all other brains must be compared, we need to admit there is no standard brain, just as there is no standard flower, or standard cultural or racial group, and that in face diversity among brains is just as wonderfully enriching as biodiversity and the diversity among cultures and races”
