Hello! My name is Leslie. I am dedicated to guiding you through whatever life has to throw at you whether that be anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, etc. I offer a non-judgmental, trustworthy space to explore your feelings and find effective coping mechanisms. I approach therapy from a trauma-informed perspective and person-centered approach while utilizing primarily CBT and DBT techniques as well as other helpful interventions. Using individualized styles of therapy modalities, I tailor my approach in order to create what feels best for you. Let's work together to embrace your emotions and navigate life's challenges.

We all experience challenges throughout our lives. My person-centered approach gives you the opportunity to discuss what is meaningful to you. I support adults who wish to build confidence, renew self-esteem, and develop the practical skills and resources necessary to heal from the pain of traumatic and adverse life experiences. My fourteen years of experience supporting people who are challenged by health issues, family issues, and grief and loss has given me a wealth of diverse knowledge. I help people find relief and heal from anxiety, depression, phobias and negative core beliefs.

I believe therapy is about development and progression. Therapy can often be a challenging process. Recognizing that change can be hard at times, I strive to provide a safe, confidential, and comfortable atmosphere. I work hard to balance a client's desire to change and the need for support and stability, by providing a challenging yet nurturing environment. My goals are to help people increase their understanding and awareness of their own influences in their lives, to help clients develop the best relationships possible and reach a better understanding for positive and lasting change.

Life challenges can become struggles. Normal transitions, like a job change or an “empty nest” can be daunting--maybe even overwhelming. Big issues, like relationship stress, illness, divorce, job loss, losing someone close, can weigh heavily, steal our energy, derail us. You may suffer from depression, anxiety, or other difficulties. For struggles with food and body issues, or distressing habits, I would love to help you with these challenges, as well. Accepting new clients; teletherapy appts available.

Hello, I am a Marriage and Family Therapist who supports my clients in discovering and achieving what they most want in life. As we begin to look more deeply at who we are, we can move toward a life that has increased balance and fulfillment. Many of us suffer in our relationships, careers and internal worlds due to a lack of awareness of the ways in which our past wounds impact current choices and ways of interacting with others. By taking a deeper look at these processes, problematic belief systems can begin to change.

Welcome, I am glad you made it! My name is Maxie. I am a clinician inside of Northwest Therapy Group. I have found a love of working alongside individuals who find themselves struggling with finding purpose and identity. Whether you are a new parent working your way back to yourself (or your partner), a teen struggling with depression, anxiety, or finding your sense of self, or maybe you're someone who struggles with grief and loss, I am ready to walk with you through it.

Getting to the heart of intense emotions and changing the status quo can be frightening. Yet, so is the idea of remaining in a place that is no longer sustainable. You know it’s time to stop trying to fill that void with what is no longer working. It can be very difficult to step out of expectations and into your authentic self. The decision to seek professional therapy and create movement in your life says you are ready. Anxiety, depression, compulsive behaviors and negative relationship patterns can become so overwhelming that we feel distrust in everything, especially ourselves.

Therapy is unique for each person. Respect and understanding are vital in helping each person. Solution-focused to help solve and resolve problems.
