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.
Do you want to learn more about yourself and improve your life? Are you struggling to get by, but want to have a different life? Are you trying to figure out what is keeping you stuck? Some of the struggles my clients have include: anxiety, depression, trauma, ADD/ADHD, and sleep difficulties. I understand it's overwhelming at times. I often work with highly sensitive individuals who have found different aspects of life overwhelming.

Are you exhausted from trying to please everyone? You can change your feelings, yourself, and your life. There is hope. If you have complex problems that require complex solutions, if you need a therapist who can "keep up" with you, if you want a therapist who "gets it" and understands your specific needs, you're in the right place.

I believe the desire to heal is inside all of us; sometimes we just need help to get there. I am deeply inspired by the sacredness of helping people change and recover. I particularly love to work with survivors of all kinds in processing unresolved trauma; those who wish to build a life in recovery; & folks who are exploring sexuality and gender identities. My goal is to collaborate with my clients to create a compassionate, non-judgmental & "real" space to make personal evolution possible.
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.

Relationships are the foundation of our lives. Through connection with one another we can either thrive or feel isolated and alone. Working to strengthen or even rebuild connections with others and with ourselves is extremely important to creating a sense of community and acceptance. If our foundation feels secure and safe, we can then allow ourselves to thrive in other areas of our lives. However, if our connection with others feels uncertain it can leave us feeling disconnected and withdrawn.

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.
