Accepting new clients now! Autumn Counseling Services, LLC, works with individuals and families throughout the lifespan. Our clients often struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, gender dysphoria, or ADHD. You may also experience difficulties with general life stressors, relationships, trying to figure our your identity, emotional regulation, low self esteem, sleep disturbances, changes in eating habits, new changes in your life, and inability to cope with daily life, such as work, school, daily tasks and responsibilities.

I've been in practice for 20+ years and I'm passionate about helping people move forward in their lives. My approach to therapy is collaborative, supportive, and goal oriented. Together we can discover how to break your maladaptive patterns, build on your strengths, and begin your journey to heal. In my practice, you will find openness without judgement and an environment where you can heal the wounds that may be causing low self-esteem, relationship issues, problems at work; or depression and anxiety. Together we can create the changes you want in your life.

Philosophy and Approach: I believe that at various times in our lives all individuals, couples, and families need support adjusting to traumas, life changes and the daily stressors we all face. I desire to create a safe relationship where individuals feel that their experiences are understood and accepted. When the therapeutic relationship is built on trust, compassion, understanding, and acceptance, individuals are able to feel supported to make positive changes in their lives.

It is my mission to provide specialized treatment for children, youth, and adults in areas of mental health recovery (depression, anxiety, OCD, phobias, body-focused repetitive behaviors, and complex trauma), racial identity, women’s wellness, body image issues, complex trauma, relationship issues, grief and loss, intercultural relationships, life transitions, ancestral/intergenerational trauma, and somatic therapy. I am committed as an ally to human rights and the issues of social/racial justice, equity, and equality for all as an Indigenous/Intersectionalist Ecofeminist.

I believe in allowing individuals to externalize their issues rather than internalize them while also developing skills and a sense of purpose to navigate through difficult times.
