Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that's triggered by a traumatic, scary or dangerous event. PTSD can be caused by either witnessing or experiencing the trauma. Events that sometimes trigger PTSD include everything from sexual assault, war, and violence, to car accidents or other incidents that could cause loss of life. It is not at all uncommon for people who go through something traumatic to have temporary difficulty coping and acute symptoms, but with time, they usually get better. However, if the symptoms last longer than a month, get worse rather than better and affect your ability to function, you may be suffering from PTSD. Symptoms of PTSD may include severe anxiety, anger, nightmares, trouble sleeping, flashbacks to the event, frightening thoughts, avoidance of situations or places, feeling on edge and/or being easily startled. If you think you may be experiencing PTSD, reach out to one of TherapyDen’s specialists today to get help.

Individuals seek therapy and counseling for varied reasons: personal growth, relationship problems, life transitions, traumatic experiences, environmental stressors and challenges, depression, anxiety, and more. Individuals also seek diverse outcomes. Through getting to know the individual client, our therapists help clients find solutions to the challenges that bring them to therapy. We tailor our psychotherapy approach to each individual, their specific needs, and their desire outcome.

The hardest part is recognizing there's a problem; the next hardest part is DOING something about said problem. I love to work with folks who know it is time for a change and are ready to do the work...but maybe need a guide to get there. Whether that change is recovering from trauma, exploring gender and sexuality, or breaking out of unhelpful loops in your relationship, my goal is to offer the backup needed to face the hard stuff and make consequential change possible.

Are you navigating the complexities of trauma, identity, or relationships? I work with clients who have experienced trauma and want to heal, and clients who want to live a more authentic existence. I provide a safe space to help navigate healing and authenticity without judgment. Some of my specialty areas are childhood and complex trauma, LGBTQ populations, religious trauma, boundaries, identity, and relationships. I enthusiastically support those who practice polyamory and/or embrace kink.

We specialize in working with people who have experienced difficult life circumstances, highly sensitive people (HSP), and those who feel hopeless & anxious. They are often high achieving but struggle with feeling never good enough or unlovable. They are left feeling empty, shamed, & insignificant at the end of the day. We also help couples who feel that they have drifted apart & help grow intimacy and communication. We view our clients as intelligent, curious, and resourceful individuals.

Throughout my career, I have always viewed my clients as pretty amazing and courageous individuals. Suffering is an inevitable part of life. Yet, each individual's suffering is unique. A starting point for change is gaining an understanding of the various factors that have led to the difficulties in life. As the suffering starts to make more sense, then we are able to collaboratively find options for making changes that lead to a more meaningful and satisfying life.
