While not exhaustive, these are the common areas I have most experience and training in.
Each area is expanded on further below.

COMPLEX
TRAUMA

childhood | one-time event | relational | systemic | cultural

When you’ve been hurt, let down, or made to feel unsafe, it makes sense to protect yourself. You may have learned to anticipate other people’s needs, hide parts of yourself, strive to get everything right, or keep others at a distance.

Those protections may have helped you through painful experiences, but they don’t have to shape the rest of your life. Together, we can help you understand your story, rebuild trust in yourself, and create relationships and a life that feel safer and more authentic.

ADHD

attention | productivity | time management

Living with ADHD can mean knowing exactly what you want to do—and still feeling unable to get started. You may have great ideas but struggle to follow through, lose track of time or responsibilities, or wonder why everyday tasks seem to require so much effort.

Therapy can help you better understand how your brain works, quiet the self-criticism, and find strategies that actually fit you. Together, we can create more ease, consistency, and confidence in your day-to-day life—without expecting you to become someone you’re not.

GRIEF

loss | life transition | unanticipated change

Loss and change can leave you feeling untethered—even when the rest of the world expects you to keep moving forward. You may be grieving someone you love, a relationship, a hoped-for future, or a version of life that no longer exists.

There is no timeline for grief and no way to simply make the pain disappear. Therapy can offer a space where you don’t have to hold it all together—where you can honor what you’ve lost, make room for whatever you’re feeling, and gently find your way through what comes next.

RELATIONSHIPS

communication | conflict | trust | LGBTQ+ affirming

It can be painful to feel distant from the person you love—or to keep having the same argument without ever feeling truly understood. Even when you both want things to be better, old patterns, unspoken needs, and different ways of communicating can keep getting in the way.

Therapy can help you slow those patterns down, understand what is happening beneath the conflict, and communicate with more honesty and care. Together, you can learn to work through difficult moments in ways that help you both feel heard, valued, and more connected.

EDUCATORS

teachers | admin | staff

Having been an LA educator myself, I intimately understand that there is a great deal of stress and pressure placed upon educators each and every minute they devote to their profession.

Lean into a safe space to pause and reflect on the ways that your time, energy, and spirit are impacted by the work you do.

or it could be something entirely different and that’s OK.

Just because it isn’t listed, doesn’t mean we can’t work together. Maybe you haven’t found the language for what you are going through or it’s a unique set of circumstances. Whatever it may be, it is important you have a space for it, so it’s worth checking to see if we are a good fit.
