About me

Hi, I'm Lindsay. I am here to help you on your healing journey. I believe that each and every person holds all of the wisdom they need to overcome life’s traumas directly within themselves. My job as a therapist is to help shine a light on your own inner wisdom, and guide you through the healing process in a safe, nonjudgmental space. I believe that when we approach life’s challenges with curiosity rather than criticism we are better able to reach a sense of peace and acceptance to some of lives most complex circumstances and hardships. I am passionate about helping my clients navigate their journey to their most authentic, free, and true selves. I believe that when we have the tools to attune ourselves to our mind, body and spirit we come home to ourselves. And when we are at home within ourselves, we are free. Whether you are seeking to recover from narcissistic abuse, intimate partner violence, or family or childhood trauma, or you are struggling with a difficult life transition or depression, or anxiety. I will meet you exactly where you are. I believe that each individual is the expert on their own lives. My sole purpose as your therapist is to guide you with compassion and care to help you unlock your innate inner wisdom and equip you with the tools you need to overcome the trauma of your past. I am dedicated to liberation therapy and I reject all systems of oppression including but not limited to white supremacy, racism, and sexism.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

During our initial session, I prioritize establishing rapport and creating a safe, confidential space for open dialogue. We'll start by introducing ourselves and delving into your goals, expectations, and the specific challenges you're facing, whether related to trauma, relationships, or personal struggles. This conversation serves as the foundation for crafting a personalized plan tailored to address your unique needs and concerns. By openly discussing your challenges and aspirations, we'll collaboratively outline strategies and interventions to guide our subsequent sessions toward effective solutions and personal growth. Overall, you can expect a supportive and empathetic environment, where your experiences are validated, and together, we'll chart a path forward toward healing and achieving your desired outcomes.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I am best positioned to serve young adults from diverse backgrounds who have experienced trauma or abuse. With my extensive experience in working with survivors of abuse and trauma, I understand the complexities and challenges they face. My lived experiences also contribute to a greater sense of empathy, allowing me to connect more deeply with clients. I create a safe space for individuals to explore their experiences, providing tailored support that acknowledges the unique intersections of their backgrounds and trauma. My specialized knowledge and understanding of trauma help me guide young adults toward healing and growth, fostering resilience and empowerment as they navigate their paths to recovery.

My treatment methods

Compassion Focused

As a licensed clinical social worker and therapist, I employ Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT) due to its profound emphasis on nurturing self-compassion, a pivotal element in healing and resilience. This approach resonates deeply with my belief in the transformative power of self-kindness and understanding. Furthermore, integrating CFT aligns seamlessly with my trauma-informed practice, where I prioritize acknowledging and addressing the impacts of trauma sensitively and effectively. Moreover, my commitment to cultural competence and inclusivity drives the application of CFT within a framework that respects and integrates diverse perspectives, ensuring a safe and respectful therapeutic space for individuals of all backgrounds to explore and foster compassion towards themselves and others.

Lindsay is amazing. She is literally heaven sent. To be able to have a safe space where you can say anything and there is no judgement, there is support, encouragement, validation... it's invaluable. Someone who helps you understand what you're going through and offers insight, I am just so beyond thankful that I have Lindsay she has helped me so much more than I can express. I wish everyone could have a Lindsay in their life.
