You work really hard but it's getting harder to hold it all together as you wrestle with the doubts and the stress.

On the outside, you look like you have it all together - but that doesn't make you feel OK on the inside. I...

You’re the go-to person - the one everyone relies on. Your friends and family see you as competent, put-together, and strong. And while that’s helped you achieve, the pressure to meet such high expectations is exhausting. You spend so much time caring for other people’s needs that your own get lost in the process. Saying no feels like a risk. What if the relationship falls apart? What if they see the real you and decide it’s not enough? On the outside, your life looks great. Inside, you’re strug...

We are a team of clinical social workers specializing in yoga/mindfulness, EMDR, and CBT. Our understanding is that in order to truly heal, we must honor our whole-body and mind working together. Many of our clients find that much of their suffering is stored throughout their bodies as anxiety, depression, and stress begin to take over. We support students as they navigate the unfamiliar and sometime daunting transition into adulthood and offer a warm, hopeful guide towards joy and purpose. ...
I view therapy not only as a means of reducing emotional distress but also as an approach to personal growth. However, I believe that therapy should not be a way of life and I therefore support clients in developing concrete skills, with emphasis on working with emotions: promoting a better understanding of emotions and emotion regulation. I view therapy as a collaborative process of exploration. I bring to this process an attitude of compassionate curiosity and non-judgment. I also draw on...

In my years of practice with the chronically ill and under-housed, I’ve seen and addressed the fallout from stigma and institutional barriers all day every day. So that’s the bad news, which you probably...
