I firmly believe that every one of us is born with inherent worth, strengths, and gifts. Sometimes what happens to us on life’s journey interferes with our ability to see those. Sometimes our self-worth seems elusive or lacking altogether. I have a passion for helping clients reclaim that self-worth and capitalize on those valuable strengths and gifts. Whether you have been struggling with addictions, compulsive behaviors, codependency, anxiety, depression, or more, I would be honored to help.

Historically, women have been valued primarily for being a certain size. Body Acceptance is gaining traction more and more, but many women still obsess about changing how they look. My body image groups provide support for women who can't seem to feel okay with themselves.

We all have an inner critical voice that can overwhelm our experiences and sabotage our relationship with ourselves and others. My clients learn to identify and relate differently to this inner voice, creating a shift in how they treat themselves. They are then able to engage in a process of investigating different parts of themselves and lead their lives with more inner freedom, self compassion, and open heartedness.

I help people who are struggling to develop a strong sense of self worth. I often work with people exploring identity and self esteem Who are experiencing symptoms like high anxiety, depression, difficulty coping with stress, and intrusive negative thoughts. Some therapists focus only on the symptoms which can feel incomplete. I listen deeply to hear what’s going on underneath. I help you process the old stories and beliefs held deep within that are cutting you off from your true self.

Are the teenage years bumpier than you thought? Maybe your mind is loud with worries and you can't seem to feel rested; no matter how much sleep you're getting. You’re really feeling the pressure. You're tired of beating yourself up. Therapy can provide you with a space to sort inherited patterns into helpful and not so helpful piles, reduce anxiety, explore new ways of managing stress, and hone connection skills that make relationships smoother. I can help you release what's weighing on you.

Ali Siewert

Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.

My clients struggle as you do. Despite being smart, determined and kind, life is hard. When they first come in, they experience thoughts and emotions as too intense. They have trouble relaxing and feel like anxiety has taken over their life. Before therapy, they put a lot of pressure on themselves and felt guilt and shame for struggling. ‘Other people seem to have it all together, why can’t they?’ Like my clients, you deserve to find peace and fulfillment in life. I'd love to help you get there.

You have been wondering if maybe you are neurodivergent but don’t know where to start exploring your beautiful neurodiversity. You have recently become a parent and realize you are having a hard time with the sensory aspects of parenthood. You are a new college student and realize that you have been masking, or hiding your authentic self, due to societal expectations.

Feeling trapped in a cycle where each day blurs into the next, and the future seems as bleak as the past? Even with the support of loved ones, you might still find yourself feeling unseen and alone. In these moments, days lose their meaning, frustration mounts, and the thought of pushing away those you care about becomes all too common. When the idea of "If I can't bear to see my pain, who else would want to?" creeps in, it might be time to reach out. I am ready to join you, when you are ready.

Maybe you're not sure if therapy is right for you, but are curious or maybe you just want the anxiety to go a way. You maybe feeling overwhelmed at the moment, struggling with anxiety. It can be hard to know what you want or what you need when you have so much going on. Holistic practices and emotion regulation tools can reduce these anxious thoughts and feelings. I look forward to you learning a new way of being without the all encompassing feeling of anxiety that is keeping you stuck.

Existence is an intense struggle in a manmade world of suffering. Dissociative experiences and feeling unhuman is a response we can care for. Maybe you've gone through a profound trauma, such as psychosis or assault, and are looking for some way to pick up what feels like broken pieces. The goals my clients aim to achieve include fostering community and feeling connected to the liberation of all peoples, and sometimes it's just making it to the next day.

Andrea Rose

My clients are those that want to better themselves in some way, but are not quite sure what they want or how to get there. I love working with those that are making major life transitions, such as going to college, getting a new job, moving to a new location, changing a relationship status, etc. Sometimes when we feel stuck in a particular position, our potential gets stuck with us. I love working with eager folks that are ready to start confronting their anxieties in life.

Tifarah Canion

I am drawn to working with those who are going through life changes, healing from complex traumas, and anyone who is just looking to work on themselves. I am an eccentric counselor, and while I prefer to work under the theories that best work for my clients, I hold the mind-body connection as a crucial piece of our sessions. I enjoy using a holistic approach by incorporating mindfulness into the sessions. The majority of my client work has been with individuals between the ages of 18 and 50.

I have noticed that often times creative, sensitive, intelligent people will have very unique problems in this world. They will carry around more anxiety from overthinking. They can become easily distracted and bored when they are not stimulated. And sometimes, intense emotional reactions can cycle into feelings of depression that can be difficult to navigate. I use creative interventions and positive coping strategies to help individuals find ways to be the best version of themselves.
