I help young adults who feel out of control of their lives. Stressed Out. Overwhelmed. Not quite sure how this whole adulting thing works. Trying to balance school, work, family, friends, and relationships. My clients struggle like you do. Despite being smart, driven, and funny, life is hard. When clients first come in, they may not feel enjoyment in the same activities they used to love. They may tend to mindlessly watch Youtube instead of completing their to-do list. They feel so stressed that they don’t finish tasks, and then beat themselves up for not completing it. The cycle continues as they feel worse and worse. My clients come into therapy looking for support, avoid doing things they used to love, have trouble connecting with family and friends, and find themselves second guessing their decisions. Choices may seem overwhelming, as if one wrong move sends them back to square one. They can’t sleep at night and have trouble completing assignments for college. In counseling, clients and I work together to see their choices in a wider lens and find ways that they are in control. We come up with plans to reduce stress, anxiety, and depression. Please contact me if you’re ready to take control of your life and be the person you want to be.

Hi, I'm Lindsey Goulden, a licensed therapist providing a supportive and practical approach to help individuals navigate challenges with self-esteem, social anxiety, relationships, and executive functioning. My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in helping clients build real-world coping skills while fostering self-acceptance and confidence. Whether you're facing a season of change, or are experiencing the stress of daily life, therapy with me is a change to slow down, understand what's happening beneath the surface, and discover ways forward that feel authentic and sustainable.

Sometimes life brings seasons in which we feel overly stressed, anxious, insecure, or simply feel lost. College is a huge transition that can be difficult to navigate as you try to figure out who you are as an adult and what you want in your future. You may be struggling with negative thoughts, overwhelming emotions, or experiencing relational issues, and feel you need some direction. Together, we will identify and tackle specific problem-areas in your life while gaining new insights and developing tools for you to feel confident about your future. You can leave with a better understanding of yourself and find new meaning for your life. If any of this resonates with you, please feel free to explore my website and book a free 15-minute consult to see if we might be a good fit.

In our work together, we'll explore strategies to set healthy boundaries, promoting a more fulfilling and balanced life. I recognize that each person's journey is unique, and I approach therapy with a commitment to meeting you where you are. My collaborative and strengths-based approach emphasizes the importance of building a therapeutic relationship grounded in trust and respect.

If you’re reading this, you might be carrying more than you feel you can manage on your own—and I want you to know you’re not alone.

You’re exhausted from carrying so much on your own. Maybe your mind never shuts off, your emotions feel overwhelming, or you’re tired of being “the strong one” for everyone else.

Together, we create a space where you can finally breathe, slow down, and reconnect with yourself.

I’ve experienced my own struggles with self-esteem, mental health, & relationship issues. These experiences have shaped me into a therapist who is empathetic, practical, & down-to-earth. I know the path to self-improvement & rebuilding your relationships can be challenging. Let me help you understand yourself and/or your partner more by identifying your "WHY", meaning why you think, behave, and react the way you do based off of attachment, communication styles, past relationships, etc. Don't be afraid to take a chance on you and/or your partner. Let's create those meaningful changes and new memories together.

Many of the students I work with are thoughtful, hardworking, and care deeply about doing well — but inside, they often feel overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, or disconnected. Some are managing big life changes like moving away from home, starting new relationships, or facing academic pressure. Others are dealing with past losses, identity questions, or mental health challenges like depression, anxiety, or self-criticism. If this sounds familiar, you're not alone — and you don't have to figure it out by yourself. I help students untangle complicated emotions, learn practical tools to manage stress, set healthy boundaries, and reconnect with what truly matters to them. Therapy with me is collaborative, down-to-earth, and focused on helping you build a life that feels more authentic, balanced, and meaningful.

Hi, I’m Marie, and I’m so glad you found me. I’m here for the ones who’ve always felt a little different, a little out of place, the "oddballs" who don’t see themselves reflected in the world around them. Life isn’t always sunshine and rainbows, and I’m not going to pretend it is. But just because it’s hard doesn’t mean you’re powerless. My goal is to help you find your power- not by ignoring the darkness, but by showing you that you can still grow despite it. I want to help you believe in the possibility of happiness again, even if you’re not sure what that looks like right now. I’ve dedicated many years to learning how to support mental health, but the heart of my work is making you feel safe, seen and validated.

If you’re feeling stuck, broken, or like you’ll never feel normal again, I’m here to tell you that you don’t have to be "normal" to feel whole. Together, we’ll navigate the mess and the pain, in a space where you don’t have to filter yourself or shrink to fit someone else’s idea of “okay.” If that sounds like what you're looking for, please reach out.

Many of the college students I work with are balancing classes, jobs, relationships, and questions about who they are—and that can feel overwhelming. I often help students who are navigating academic stress, identity changes, and family expectations, while also working to feel more confident and handle life’s challenges without burning out. As a Latino and LGBTQ+ therapist, I understand how culture, family, and identity can shape your college experience and sometimes add extra pressure. In our work together, I use proven counseling methods like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help you recognize and shift unhelpful thought patterns, and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to give you practical tools for managing emotions and relationships. I create a safe, welcoming space where your whole self is valued, and where you can explore who you are, challenge old beliefs, and build skills to thrive both in and out of the classroom.
