Adulting is hard! The decisions you face about school, work and relationships can be confusing. You may be struggling with alcohol or other substance use. With compassion and without judgment, I'll help you figure out if it's causing a problem for you. During my years as a therapist, I've helped people with mental and emotional health problems, such as depression, anxiety, trauma and family issues. I really enjoy working with young adults and helping them answer questions about who they are, what they want to do and where they want to go in life. I'll help you navigate life transitions and work with you on your discovery to create your best self.

Spotted Rabbit therapists aren’t here to “fix” you. We live for empowering neurodivergents, LGBTQ+ folx, and adults who’ve experienced emotional neglect to be their most authentic selves and live a life aligned with their own personal values. We specialize in working with individuals who have experienced a difficult home life growing up, are exploring their sexuality and/or gender, struggling with the transition to adulthood, ore are having difficulty forming and maintaining satisfying relationships. Our therapists have personal and professional experiencing working with neurodivergent clients or those who suspect an ADHD or autism diagnosis. Spotted Rabbit uses a person-centered approach, which means we let you take the lead and provide a safe space for you to explore new thoughts and behaviors in relation to your own personal goals. We are a particularly good fit for creative individuals, as well as those who have had difficulty with traditional talk therapy in the past. Art making within therapy can ease anxiety by giving you something else to focus on, as well as provide unique insights sitting below our level of awareness. Please note not all of our providers are in-network with insurance. For those who self-pay we offer the following rates: Licensed Art Therapist $125 Associate Art Therapist $88 Intern Art Therapist $40

You can be surrounded by people and still feel completely alone. Maybe you grew up keeping the peace, managing everyone else's emotions, or shrinking yourself to avoid conflict, and now those same patterns are running your life. You overthink, you people-please, you second-guess yourself constantly. You are self-aware enough to know something is not working, and awareness alone has not changed it. These patterns have roots. Family wounds, early trauma, relationships that taught you it was not safe to be yourself. Insight goes a long way toward naming them and stops short of loosening them, which is not a failure of effort on your part. I use Accelerated Resolution Therapy, an eye movement therapy that works on the physical charge attached to a memory rather than the story about it. You do not have to describe what happened out loud. Most people notice a shift within one to five sessions, and I offer ART both in weekly therapy and as a single longer intensive session for students who want to resolve something specific without a semester-long commitment. I am also trained in EMDR and use a person-centered, strengths-based approach throughout. If you are ready to stop going through the motions and find out who you are when you are not managing everyone else, I would like to hear from you.

I'm a licensed clinical social worker with a virtual practice in NY and GA. I offer psychotherapy for adults navigating life transitions and struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, perfectionism, and shame. I also specialize in helping people make peace with their bodies and heal their relationships with food and exercise. I see therapy as a deeply rewarding experience where you can cultivate self compassion, self acceptance, and flexibility. We'll create a safe space where you can process distressing feelings or challenges, grow in self understanding, build and practice new ways of coping, and move towards living a full life that's in line with your true values. My integrative approach as a therapist means I'll always be responsive to your reasons for being in therapy and what you want to find. I have an open, exploratory style, but I also won't hesitate to share more concrete resources or suggest practices to test out in between sessions if we decide together it might help.

Feeling stuck in a bad pattern and can't seem to find the way out? Let's talk! I work with unwanted habits and addictions of all kinds, from alcoholism to eating disorders to avoidant procrastination. Any behavior that can spiral out of control, I've probably worked with it. My goals are simple: to help you design and put into practice a life that you feel is balanced, healthy, and happy. We use small changes to get big outcomes that are - most importantly - maintainable long term. Message me or check out my website for more information. Always happy to chat or answer questions!

Something worthwhile to remember is that it is your first time living. A lot of the skills to help us lead the happiest and healthiest life aren't taught to us and have a pretty steep learning curve. Therapy is about meeting you where you are and creating an understanding of what your mind is doing and why your body is responding the way it is. Whether you just want to brush up on coping skills or deep dive into patterns you recognize but can never seem to break, there's a place for you in therapy!

I like to think of therapy as a journey of inner exploration and I am along as a guide. I believe that therapy is most effective when it is a combination of intellectual understanding and emotional experience. In that regard, it feels like your feelings are our road signs that we are in the right track to self-growth. I try to not have a specific agenda going into sessions, but rather to go where it is you feel like you need to go at that time. I believe that it is my role to create a safe space for you to express and explore whatever it is that is inside you. Compassion is key, and cultivating self-compassion is one of the most important elements of therapy. I look forward to helping you explore and become more self-aware and self-compassionate!

I believe the most important foundation in therapy is the relationship between therapist and client. The therapy relationship can be a safe place to practice new skills that you are hoping to bring back to the rest of your life. My goal is to help you to feel safe during your time with me, so that you can explore yourself, your challenges, your strengths, your history, and anything else that is important to you. I also hope to help you make the changes that you would like to make in your life. Maybe you can feel better than you do now. Maybe you can learn more skills to cope with what feels hard. Maybe you need to be heard and validated. Whatever brings you to therapy, I’m here for it.
