Depression, anxiety, trauma, and grief
About Doug
I work with teens and adults navigating anxiety, trauma, relationships, family challenges, life transitions, identity, or simply feeling stuck or disconnected. I welcome people from a wide range of backgrounds and have a particular understanding of first responders and helping professionals.
Together, we’ll explore the experiences and patterns that have shaped you, clarify what matters most, and find practical ways to move toward greater connection, meaning, and a life that feels authentically yours.
I also offer support for substance use and recovery, and help with anxiety, identity, and purpose. My work is grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, with mindfulness, trauma-informed, humanistic, existential, and Jungian approaches woven in when they help.
Reaching out can feel uncomfortable, especially if you’re used to handling things on your own. You don’t need to know exactly what to say, or have everything figured out, before we meet.
