Our Therapists

Trisha is a Licensed Master Social Worker and Licensed Clinical Social Worker serving adults and couples in California and Michigan. She works with individuals who are ready to look honestly at long-standing patterns, understand what has been holding them back, and engage in thoughtful, meaningful change.

Her approach is steady, direct, and relationally grounded. She meets clients with clarity and discernment, working without haste, judgment, or rigid frameworks, and allowing meaningful change to develop through careful, individualized work.

Trisha specializes in working with neurodivergent individuals who received late-life diagnoses of ADHD or autism. For many of these clients, a diagnosis illuminates years of feeling different, working harder than everyone else, or masking to fit in. She helps them unlearn self-blame, release the shame they have carried, and begin to see their sensitivity as something to work with rather than against. Neurodiversity couples sessions are available.

She frequently works with high-functioning perfectionists whose competence masks chronic exhaustion or emotional distance. Therapy offers a space to step out of relentless self-pressure and reconnect with a more sustainable, grounded way of living.

Her clinical training includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Narrative Therapy, Existential Therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy, Flash EMDR, and EMDR 2.0. She draws from each of these modalities depending on what serves you best, because no single approach works for every person. Trisha is a trauma-informed psychotherapist with experience spanning direct clinical care, program leadership, and suicide prevention. She has managed a federally funded suicide prevention grant, overseeing program implementation, outcomes, and cross-agency collaboration. Trisha has trained clinicians and community professionals nationwide in working effectively with individuals experiencing suicidal ideation, with an emphasis on steady risk assessment, ethical decision-making, and creating safe, responsive care pathways. Her clinical work integrates trauma-focused modalities including EMDR, parts-based and nervous system–informed approaches. She works especially well with high-functioning adults, neurodivergent clients, and individuals navigating perfectionism, burnout, and complex trauma, with a focus on building durable internal stability rather than dependence on therapy.
