I can help you replace old thought patterns and coping mechanisms with ones that will be more effective in your current circumstances, leading to a more fulfilling life. I see each therapy or testing session as an act of great trust by the client to let me into your world. I approach therapy from a Relational-Cultural model, integrating your values, history, personality, and strengths with what we learn from our time together. Let's work together to take those next steps toward a life worth living.
I'm Dr. Ali (she/they) and I have worked with many teens, adults, and families recover from trauma/stressors, learn to manage depression, anxiety, and many other mental health concerns. I combine humor, education, resource-building, and relationship building to meet your needs. If you know you are stuck, I know ways we can figure out why and get you unstuck.

I am dual-licensed to address both mental health and substance abuse. My approach uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, EMDR, mindfulness techniques and person-centered approaches that have been shown to be highly effective for treating a multitude of concerns. I believe that by increasing conscious awareness, clients can be empowered to change their lives. I enjoy working with adults, adolescents, and families.
Some areas that I focus on include trauma and post-traumatic stress, depression, anxiety, panic, boundary and relationship issues, chemical dependency and relapse prevention, behavioral addictions, mood disorders, ADHD and anger management.

I provide a safe, supportive space where you will feel heard, understood, and free from judgment. Whether you’re looking to heal, find balance, or simply just have someone in your corner, I’m here to support you every step of the way. I specialize in working with caregivers of loved ones with special needs/chronic illness, maternal mental health, and borderline personality disorder. I also enjoy practicing family therapy.
I offer years of experience supporting individuals coping with the stress that accompanies being a caregiver. I love supporting the interpersonal relationships within a family and helping everyone in a family unit understand each other and "speak the same language".
I tailor my approach to fit your unique needs, meeting you where you are and working together to create a form of therapy that feels right for your goals. If I sound like someone you could connect with, reach out, and we can set up a free consultation. I would love to hear more about you!

Maybe you find yourself feeling overwhelmed at the prospect of adding one more thing to your plate or tired of trying an endless list of self-improvement tasks, only to feel like the quick fix doesn't fit your circumstances. I meet my clients with a warm, strength-focused, and culturally informed perspective to ensure they are receiving care tailored to them. In addition to the skills and tools you already have, we can use my toolbox: brainspotting, solution-focused therapy, brain-body connection, and systemic therapy to put your experience into context and you in charge of your story—no matter how unmanageable it may feel right now
During a session, you can expect us to reflect on your prior successes–what's worked for you? Just as my experience supporting foster children & teaching art shaped my expertise, your skills inform therapy to be specific & effective to you. My style is collaborative and a touch witty—I lean heavy on metaphors & a bit of therapeutic challenging too.
In short, I believe that everyone deserves peace and I’m here to be a support as you find yours. If it sounds like we could be a good fit, please don’t hesitate to reach out to get scheduled. I offer free 15 minute phone consultations and we have a wonderful front desk staff who would be happy to see if your insurance works out here.

Navigating transitionary periods, relationships, identity, and feelings of loneliness, guilt, or shame can be overwhelmingly difficult to manage, not including additional stressors surrounding large family dynamics and conflicts. I am here to support the BIPOC community, in foster and adoptive families, particularly transracial adoptions, and people looking for support in foster and adoption trauma, identity, self-worth, and feelings of fear of failure. If you are struggling to navigate this world and need someone to talk to but don’t know how please reach out. I am here to offer support to teens, young adults, and couples.
As a transracial adoptee from South Korea, I bring a culturally affirming and intersectional lens to every session, using structural, experiential, and narrative modalities. I can offer a voice and guide you through anxiety, depression, relationships, and trauma. I have worked in various settings since 2011, I know personally the realities and challenges.
It takes courage to reach out and may feel scary, but I promise that you have the answers within yourself and my role is to help you unveil it–layer by layer–so that you can bring your best self forward. I believe therapy is the best form of exploring your strengths and sharing your own stories of healing and growth. Let’s connect–reach me by email or phone.

I have a true passion for helping people of all ages build on their inner strengths and break free from negative thought and behavior patterns that get in the way of living a healthy balanced life. I use an integrative framework, drawing from EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and other treatment approaches, tailored to meet each person where they are in their own unique journey towards growth and healing.
I work with ages 18 and up, and have a special interest in anxiety disorders, grief, and trauma treatment. My top priority is to ensure effective therapeutic treatment, while providing a compassionate, trusting, and non-judgmental environment for everyone.

I am passionate about helping individuals and couples navigate the complexities of relationships and attachment. Utilizing attachment theory, relational dynamics, and some CBT, I will guide you in understanding how your past influences your present connections. My approach is rooted in empathy and collaboration, creating a safe space for you to explore your feelings, patterns, and behaviors. I believe that healing begins with awareness and that building strong, secure relationships is essential for our mental well-being. Together, we will work to identify attachment styles, challenge thought patterns, and foster deeper connections.
My areas of interest include anxiety, depression, relationship issues, self-esteem, and trauma. I enjoy working with young adults, adults, and couples. For couples interested in pre-marital/pre-commitment work, I am certified as a Prepare/Enrich facilitator and can provide an assessment and feedback sessions.

There’s a lot in life we can’t control, but your power to make change is greater than you think. I offer a welcoming space to discuss life’s big questions or steps toward your goals. If you’re boxed in by work pressures, family conflicts, relationship issues, or harmful habits, let’s build a plan for change. If anger or stress are causing actions that don’t match your values, let’s draft a map for navigating hard moments.
My approach is flexible and nonjudgmental. I integrate tools from dialectical behavior therapy to help clients improve communication and build comfort with tough emotions. I take a strengths-based approach to highlight the skills and resilience you already have, and take an existential view with clients exploring their purpose in the world.
