Every relationship comes with its fair share of issues. Navigating the complexities of life together is hard enough, but when you start to feel regularly distressed or hopeless, about your relationship, it may be time to seek professional help. No matter what your issues seem to stem from (disagreements about money, sex, stress, chronic illness, mental illness, infidelity, trust, emotional distance, parenting etc.), if you and your partner are arguing more frequently and experiencing feelings of resentment or contempt, it is likely that there are some underlying problems to address. Because many problems in relationships are a result of communication issues, a qualified mental health therapist can teach you to find new ways of talking to each other to help you find your way back to common ground. Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s relationship and marriage issues experts today.
My clients are adults and families with anxiety, depression, learning differences such as dyslexia and ADHD, and those who are questioning possible neurodivergence/learning differences. I also work with partners/spouses who are navigating different neurotypes, infidelity, the decision to have a family, addiction, or conflict due to differences in sexual desire or political beliefs. In my 15 years in my silver lake practice I truly have helped people in many different situations.

I find that my clients come to treatment when they have arrived at a life transition- be it loss of relationship, job, death of loved one, or realization of past traumatic experiences- and are ready to process their emotions and heal. Openness to exploring your internal world, including past traumatic experiences that may be impacting your life, is integral in the work I will support you in.

Complex or relational trauma can show up as overwhelming emotions, depression, anxiety, or problems building or keeping relationships. It can also show up as symptoms of post traumatic stress or PTSD. Whether you need help navigating current stress, or processing and resolving problems rooted in past experiences, we can work together to build skills to manage emotions in the present while uncovering glimmers of hope to move forward through darkness toward healing.

Many of my clients come to me frustrated with their relationships, their career, or patterns they feel stuck in, and are feeling pretty powerless. The source of their pain is often contributed to being mistreated, not feeling fully seen, heard, and acknowledged by family, peers, society, and culture. My clients have a desire for personal growth, to find connection, and to build confidence.

Like all things in the natural world, death feeds new life: your wounds, traumas, and losses can be compost to nourish a more vibrant life to come. You may be struggling with grief, loneliness, fear about the future, confusion about who you are and what you want out of life. These challenges are invitations to awaken into a more openhearted, fulfilling, and purposeful life. I am a guide who has traveled these dark and mysterious landscapes and feel called to support you in your unique becoming.

I strive to come from a place of compassion and empathy because, as humans, we all have patterns, messages, and lessons that show up in our lives. The more conscious and mindful we can become of these patterns, the more freedom we can have from them. My goal in therapy is to utilize evidence-based treatments to help you understand these themes so that you can gain the tools, insights, and skills necessary to live the life you want.

Finding meaning in life, healing, becoming whole again, & thriving (not just surviving) are examples of potential goals for our time together. Within that framework, we can customize our work to meet and embrace your unique personality & needs. A couple of meaningful quotes: “You are not meant for crawling. So don't. You have wings. Learn to use them and fly." ~ Jalal al-Din Rumi (13th-century Persian poet and Sufi mystic) “The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are.” ~ Carl Jung

Often we may find ourselves playing out the same, unhelpful patterns in different areas of our lives. I strive to bring light into these areas and help you come to a better understanding of yourself.

Do you find yourself holding back, unsure where to turn with your thoughts and emotions? Many adults I work with feel like they don’t have a safe place to share their feelings. Often, they’ve spent a long time avoiding emotions because they don’t know what to do with them. Together, we can explore those feelings in a compassionate and non-judgmental space, allowing you to make sense of your inner world and find a path forward.
I support individuals in all realms of understanding themselves, especially at the intersections of neurodiversity, sexuality, and queerness. Together, we will reconnect somatically with your body, tapping into its natural navigation system and your internal voice that guides you forward. I also offer free gender health letters.
