Do I Really Need Therapy? (I’m Not Crazy!)

Could life be better? Absolutely – yes!

You’re used to being the smart one who figures things out. But lately… something’s different. Your brain is running in circles, and you’re stumped by a problem that won’t budge. It might look like one (or more) of these situations:

Maybe you replay the past more than you’d like, stuck on that cringey mistake or painful memory that won’t let go.

Maybe you’re anxious about the future, unsure and worrying what’s around the corner.

Maybe your relationships keep hitting the same wall. You’re starting to wonder if it’s them… or maybe it’s something in your own pattern.

Maybe you feel guilty unloading on friends and suspect they’re getting tired of hearing you vent. You need someone impartial to really listen.

Maybe anxiety or sadness is quietly holding you back from the things you want to do, even if you appear “fine” on the outside.

Here’s the good news: All of the above (and so much more) can be helped with therapy. You don’t have to be “crazy” or broken to seek help – you just have to be a human who wants life to feel better. And that’s absolutely okay.

How I Can Help: I’m a therapist who thrives working with people who feel a bit off the beaten path. I specialize in helping folks with issues like stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship struggles. If you’re dealing with peer drama, romantic ups and downs, sexual identity or intimacy issues, existential angst or even nihilistic dread, I’m here for it. I love working with clients who might describe themselves as geeks, nerds, misfits, or just “different.”  (Polyamorous? Kinky? Neurodivergent? LGBTQ+? All welcome!)

Here’s what you can expect when we work together:

An open-minded, sex-positive approach. I will never judge you for who you are or who (and how) you love. All lifestyles and identities are embraced here.

Geek-friendly humor and understanding. Whether you quote Star Wars or love D&D, you won’t have to hide your passions. In fact, we might use them to help explain what you’re going through.

A safe, supportive space to vent and heal. Think of therapy as your personal respawn point – a place to regain strength. I provide a confidential, respectful environment where you can unpack anything.

Authenticity and a dash of irreverence. I’m upbeat and genuine (with a nerdy streak). I’ll laugh with you when things are funny, and get real with you when things get tough.

Challenge and growth. Stuck in a loop? I won’t just nod and say “mm-hmm.” I’ll kindly challenge you to level-up when you’re ready, and help strategize how to get where you want to go.

Geeky wisdom to ponder:

“Shared pain is lessened. Shared joy is increased. Thus we refute entropy.” — Spider Robinson

“Evil is treating other people like things.” — Terry Pratchett

These quotes inspire how I work – by sharing your pain, we lighten it; by celebrating your joy, we amplify it. And most of all, I will always treat you like the wonderfully unique person you are – never just a “thing” or a number.
