As individuals, we all walk through difficult times in our lives, and sometimes having someone by our side makes all the difference. I provide a supportive and safe space for you to grow, heal, and work through the areas of your life that you want to address. For over fifteen years I have had the privilege of working with individuals going through some of the most difficult times in their lives. I have witnessed the resiliency of individuals committed to making change. I wholeheartedly believe that we all have the ability to overcome, heal and grow. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and relationship issues. I enjoy working with college students, young professionals, first responders, adults, and couples. Having experience in crisis response, advocacy, law enforcement, and working with children and families, I provide support from a trauma-focused lens offering guidance to individuals in a non-judgmental environment. I utilize different modalities of treatment, depending on your needs. I enjoy working with young adults, individuals, and couples to reach their goals and overcome any obstacles.

“Your journey is unique; I am here to walk alongside you.” This is my guiding principle, both as a person and as a therapist. Life presents us with an array of challenges and obstacles, and I believe that the power of connection and genuine support can be transformative. I approach therapy with a client-centered, strength-based philosophy, where our work together will focus on navigating life's complexities while uncovering the strengths and aspirations that reside within you.
In our sessions, we will process your experiences, confront difficult emotions, and nurture your personal growth. It is my goal to equip you with effective coping strategies and interpersonal skills that will serve you not just during our time together but for your entire life.

I utilize a holistic approach to therapy that incorporates the mind, body, and spirit. I'm trained in a range of therapy modalities and work with individuals who have experienced trauma, challenging relationships, adoption, academic challenges, and life transition issues that are leading to feelings of depression, anxiety, and low self esteem. I show up as a real person in our therapy space that is safe and genuine so you can show up as yourself and can expect to be met exactly where you are. Whether you are needing tools and education, trauma processing, insight to your past and patterns, or safe space to process every day challenges, we will work together to find out what’s best for YOU.

“Desiree has been the best therapist I've had. Over the last ten years, I've been in and out of therapy and have worked with many therapists, but Desiree stands out as the most helpful. She creates a safe space for healing and discussing trauma and offers practical solutions for overcoming challenges. Therapy can be intimidating, and I was initially skeptical, but I'm so glad I gave her a chance. Today, I feel like a complete and whole person, having confronted my trauma with her unwavering support. I've never had a therapist who cares so deeply about her clients. For Desiree, this isn't just a job; she is dedicated to her clients and has so much love to give. She tells it like it is—direct and honest without being harsh. Even if her honesty sometimes stings, it's because she's right. I truly appreciate her approach to therapy and her genuine care for her clients. 10/10 would recommend giving a chance if you feel it’s time to start the ever changing, never ending journey of self growth.”
