I’m not your typical therapist. I don’t do soft-focus therapy or sugarcoat what’s holding you back. I help men and couples face the truth, break destructive patterns, and build something real.

I specialize in sex and love addiction, substance use, trauma, and relationship repair. My clients are often high-functioning but disconnected, sober or trying to get there, successful on paper yet stuck in shame, anger, or isolation.

My approach is direct, relational, and grounded in real-world recovery. I use two-person psychology, mindfulness, CBT, and trauma-informed therapy to help you understand yourself, rebuild trust, and reconnect with your purpose.

I bring over 15 years of experience in addiction treatment and recovery work, both personally and professionally. Therapy with me is about honesty, growth, and learning how to live in alignment with who you really are, no bullshit, no judgment, just real change.

I have worked with clients in English/Spanish helping adults with co-occurring disorders, at-risk youth, children, adolescents and veterans, with exposure to trauma, neglect, abuse, and parents with parenting issues. Working with these clients early on in my career motivated me to help those who cannot help themselves. Working as a therapist is a rewarding experience as well as a privilege to be invited into another person's life. I find that in joining clients on their journey to make changes and overcome the difficulties in their lives it enables them to discover their best self.

As a therapist providing individual, couples, family, and group therapy, I utilize several frameworks derived from a number of models such as Cognitive Behavioral, Psychodynamic, Solution-Focused, and Narrative.

I have certifications in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, Crisis Oriented Recovery Systems Model, and Managing and Adapting Practices. Also trained in Gottman Couples and EMDR.

Hi, I’m Amaris, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes healing happens best in a space where you feel safe, understood, and never judged.

I work with children, teens, adults, and older adults navigating anxiety, ADHD, emotional overwhelm, grief, and major life transitions. Whether your child is having big feelings they don’t know how to manage, you’re feeling stuck in patterns that don’t serve you, or your family is walking through the heartbreak of dementia or loss, you don’t have to figure it out alone.

My style is supportive, down-to-earth, and collaborative. Therapy with me isn’t about “fixing” you, it’s about helping you understand yourself, build practical tools, and feel more confident handling life’s challenges. I blend evidence-based approaches with compassion, creativity, and sometimes even humor, because growth doesn’t have to feel heavy all the time.

Parents appreciate that I help kids build emotional regulation skills in ways that make sense to them, and I make sure caregivers feel supported too. Adults often come to me when anxiety, emotional ups and downs, or grief feel overwhelming. I also have a special place in my heart for working with older adults and families facing Alzheimer’s, dementia, and end-of-life changes.

At the core of my work is this belief:

You are not broken, you’re human, and you’re capable of growth.

If you’re ready for a space where you can show up exactly as you are, we’ll work at your pace, together.
