I aim to create an environment that is respectful, supportive, and collaborative. My approach to therapy is primarily based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). A core idea in ACT is that trying too hard to get rid of or control our emotions tends to backfire. Thus, instead of trying to get rid of unwanted thoughts, feelings, or emotions, I will help you learn to react differently to them so that you can keep your focus on living a meaningful and fulfilling life based on what’s important ...

As a therapist, I pride myself in the confidentiality and the general skills I can offer you like any other therapist. However, what you can expect with my practice goes beyond the standard therapeutic experience. My practice is person-centered and non-judgmental across several subjects, domains, circumstances, and themes. I also pride myself in being multi-dimensional in identity politics; I am Trans-Affirmative, LGBTQ+ Affirmative, Sex-positive, Body positive, Kink-positive, and more. I approa...

Hello! My name is Chrissy and I am a therapist with a special interest in anxiety, relationships, and LGBTQIA+ issues. I work in a way that is trauma-informed, which means I help people understand the ways that trauma has impacted their lives and help facilitate areas of psychological development that may be stunted due to trauma. I come to understand my patients in terms of their backgrounds, but also in their current environments, paying close attention to systems of privilege and power that k...
Change is often hard even when we know we need to make it. Sometimes it is others who want us to change and sometimes we ourselves want to, but seem unable to. We all have times in our lives when we could use a little support to help us take the first steps, move to another level, or get unstuck. As a solutions-focused and relational psychotherapist, I offer collaborative support for these very challenges....

Whether borderline, narcissistic or simply toxic, wounded and self-centered parents create wounded children. And these children grow up without the basics of warmth and kindness, acceptance and encouragement. In order to survive, we adapt to the needs of our demanding parents. That might mean we learn to parent our parent. Or we develop antennae and quickly respond to their changing moods and needs, simultaneously ignoring our own. We hope if we do and say the right thing long enough, then o...

I am seeing all patients by video and phone. You may contact me for a free initial consultation. I see psychotherapy as a psycho-educational experience where you learn about yourself. It is like taking a course in yourself. This counseling process of self-exploration leads to understanding self-defeating thinking and behaviors that may keep you from actualizing potential for successful relationships, success in school, business and career and from having a really happy life. During the 25...

I love working with people who are willing to put in effort to reduce their own suffering and lead a more authentic life....
