Hi there, I'm Tessa!
If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just not like yourself lately, you're not alone. I help teens, adults, and couples navigate hard transitions, relationship tension, grief, identity shifts, and the internal storms of depression, anxiety, and trauma.
My focus
I'm kink-aware, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and attuned to neurodivergent experiences. I work well with clients who want both validation and accountability—people ready to explore their inner world and try out new ways of coping, communicating, or showing up for themselves.
My approach
Therapy with me is collaborative, flexible, and human. I draw from CBT and DBT, but also leave space for the emotional, relational, and spiritual dimensions of your experience. My role is to walk alongside you with warmth, curiosity, and practical support—not to fix you, but to help you reconnect with your own strength, clarity, and self-trust.
