Do you tend to hold your feelings in? Sweep things under the rug and pretend everything is okay? Do you help others but not yourself? Does the idea of sitting down and talking about feelings to a stranger sound terrible or terrifying? I want to help you confront the difficulties in your life head on. It’s my job as your therapist to listen to you, your needs, your wants, and your values and create a safe space that will allow you to be fully vulnerable. I’ll help you find and learn about the strengths you already have to help you gain higher self-esteem, comfort in your own skin and in your relationships, and overall more joy.

I specialize in working with teens, adults and families. When a teen or young adult is struggling, so is their family. Whether you are wanting your kid to get more out of life or are concerned about behavior/symptoms that destabilize your child's wellbeing, I can help. I also provide support for young adults that are working through the difficult transition to adulthood. For adult clients, I offer a deep understanding of the challenges of creating and sustaining meaningful relationships and navigating our fast and competitive modern society. You will gain important insights and support on your authentic path.

Are you fed up with feeling stuck? Tired of feeling miserable or unsatisfied? Has your partner finally agreed to couples counseling? Are your parents or teenager driving you nuts? The thought of talking to stranger about your problems can be intimidating, so call me or e-mail me just to see if we're comfortable with each other. If we are, then schedule an appointment. I can help you get unstuck.

Life can be stressful and sometimes we need extra tools and guidance along the way. In working together, we will focus on your past traumas, life stressors, or the way that you react to certain situations. We can explore your past family systems, current relationships, societal influences, and life changing experiences along the way to offer insight, perspective, and tools to meet your individual needs and goals. I have a vast array of experience both personally and professionally. I believe that everyone deserves someone to support them through challenging times and feel honored to be that person for clients.

Hello! Did you just have a baby, or have a toddler or preschooler at home and feel totally overwhelmed and/or anxious? Is being a parent a lot harder than you expected? I agree, it is the hardest thing I've ever done! I love supporting parents. I have experience and a huge passion for working with postpartum parents as well as those with young children (biological, foster, and adoptive). I work with trauma, anxiety, depression, and a variety of parenting challenges. I have training and experience in maternal mental health, somatic therapy, attachment, trauma, mind-body connections, nature, play, and cognitive/behavior therapies.

I help families of teens go from worry and anxiety to renewed connection and happiness. We all want our kids to be happy, and it’s hard to watch them struggle. Our teens face the same adolescent challenges we did (intense emotions & feeling "different," without having the long-range view adulthood brings)--but they also navigate the additional stress of violence (school shootings), grief (rising suicide rates), exposure (social media) and non-stop accessibility (smartphones + internet). While our teens wrestle with anxiety and feel alone, parents worry they could lose their kid to depression, mental health issues, or even suicide.

I provide therapy to individuals and families using a variety of treatment models to best meet your needs. I tend to focus our sessions on gently exploring how the past affects the present, how thoughts impact feelings and behaviors, and how patterns present themselves in our lives. By creating a safe and nurturing environment, I support individuals and families in improving relationships, processing trauma, and implementing healthy coping strategies. I specialize in working with children ages 0-18 and their families, as well as individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, and challenges with adjusting to life’s stressors.

I am a master's level clinician who offers professional treatment of the family system. Within my private practice, sessions focus on individuals, adolescents, families, parenting, behavioral issues, addiction, & any issues causing strained relationships which negatively affect the home environment. I use a unique mixture of humor, directness, relatability, & acceptance to provide a safe environment with my clients. In a non-judgmental space, one’s inherent strength & mindfulness can submerge. Using a strengths-based approach, I help clients find tangible ways to obtain their individual versions of positive change.

When our lives become challenging, having an objective and caring 'other' to talk with can alleviate or decrease symptoms. Depression and anxiety are so common in our society and culture. Trauma is something people are experiencing more and more. I would love to connect with you and assist you in/on your journey. I offer just simple, psycho dynamic, mindfulness therapy that supports your examination into your past and present.

I offer in-person and/or on-line psychoanalytic/psychodynamic psychotherapy. My approach aims to resolve longstanding patterns that keep clients from embodying their potential, preventing their ability to meet novelty flexibly, to be in relationships, to parent effectively, or to look creatively towards a future. Sometimes our psychological, spiritual, physiologic, relational and creative resources are depleted or undeveloped. My intention is to help access these resources, whether my clients are looking for supportive psychotherapy, psychodynamic psychotherapy, or wanting to take a deeper look inside with psychoanalysis.

Do you and your partner suffer from communication problems? Did one of you have an affair and you are wondering if you can rebuild your relationship? Do you long for the days when you felt loved by your partner instead of lonely and in pain? Relationship stress takes a huge toll on your daily life. It can make it impossible to function at work, parent your kids and just get through your day. Studies show that a toxic relationship can even negatively impact your physical health. If any of these difficulties sound familiar, you are not alone. We all need to feel safe with our partner in order to be our best selves in relationship.

Is your teen struggling but you’re not sure how to help? Are you having a hard time connecting with them? Or maybe you're an adult who had a particularly difficult childhood you'd like to work through? Our childhood can be filled with ups and downs, and we need someone we can trust to unpack it with. My approach is modern, honest, and empathetic. Together we'll challenge negative thinking patterns and build confidence, while also supporting you with the tools you need to feel more connected - to your teen, your parents, or yourself. I strive to build a welcoming environment that is worth your time and investment.

Currently Accepting NEW Clients- Hello, my name is Zach DePledge. In the 12 years I have been working in mental health I have grown a passion in working with teenagers, young adults, and parents. Society places so much pressure on us these days to be perfect. What I have found is the comparison game we play in our minds destroys our self-esteem and can cause anxiety, depression, and many other mental health struggles. Parents are left wondering "am I parenting correctly?" Most of the times we don't talk about our struggles because we don't want to appear weak, in turn we are left struggling alone.

My approach is direct, supportive and caring. I believe that effective psychotherapy is based upon mutual curiosity and genuineness in discovering how to meet life’s challenges - including family issues, anxiety, depression and other mental health issues. The path through these difficulties includes facing them with humor, gentleness and bravery. The fruition of this exploration is a greater awareness of self and an appreciation of others.

Your relationship needs to change. But you’re at a loss for how to actually make that happen. Between balancing work, life, and parenting, there’s barely any time for healthy communication, much less nourishing time together. In order to keep the peace, you give up on some of your important needs. And then, distance sets in. If this is your experience right now, you are not alone! We all need support to navigate the challenges couples are dealing with today. There’s more stress and higher expectations than ever on our relationships. Yet there are simple, powerful practices that build intimacy and connection in a hurry (and that are
