The Community Couch LCSW PLLC

After working in community-based mental health settings since I started my career, I opened my private psychotherapy practice, The Community Couch, in 2022, and I made a commitment to do things differently. I wanted to offer in-person sessions, accept insurance, set below-market rates, and offer a few pro bono spots for people who couldn't otherwise access therapy. To bring a little more approachability and warmth into the therapy space, I bought a funky, purple velvet couch for my office and named my practice after my mission to make private therapy accessible to more people than just the lucky few who can pay out-of-pocket. Now a few years in, my practice continues to evolve for the benefit of my clients and stays aligned with my core values. To protect your privacy and your data I do not use Artificial Intelligence (AI) anywhere in my practice, and I have stepped away from those big therapy platforms that are funded by profit-first venture capitalists (VCs). I try to keep big business out of my small business as much as I can. My approach to psychotherapy and developing treatment goals is always through a biopsychosocial lens that gives attention to race, culture, gender identity and expression, general health concerns, socioeconomics, medical wellness, and phase of life. I use a combination of clinical modalities derived from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), which I learned as a clinical trainee at Bellevue Hospital's Intensive Personality Disorders Program. I believe that helping people understand the relationship between negative thoughts, self-judgment, emotional suffering, and unhelpful patterns of behavior can be transformative across a broad spectrum of mental health problems. And the scientific studies agree! My style in session is collaborative and dynamic. I enjoy actively participating and will challenge you when appropriate. While of course it's important to ask you, 'How does that make you feel?', there is so much more to the therapeutic experience than this question alone. I want to move you forward with new insight and new ways of coping and thinking that will last long after therapy ends.
