Addressing attachment and systemic traumas to help you make better sense of yourself (and the people around you)
We humans are wired for connection – we need it on the most basic level. But humans are the worst! And the best! Let’s just say: humans are complicated. We need each other, but we hurt each other, so we create these little ways to keep ourselves safe…but those ways might not be working anymore.
That’s where we come in. At Hella Good, we work with people who are experiencing distress within themselves and in their relationships. Therapy with us focuses on identifying and unpacking the unhelpful beliefs and patterns that keep you stuck, and then learning new ways of relating to yourself and others that make you feel ….. happy!?!
It’s possible.

What We’re Hella Good At
Unpacking that emotional baggage so you can feel allllll the self-love.
Every therapist/activist/self-help guru you follow on IG talks about self-love, but what the hell does that even mean and how can you get there?! Answer: with us! Let’s improve your self-worth and decrease your anxiety, depression and loneliness. You know that voice in your head that says you aren’t good enough? Yeah, let’s figure out where that voice is coming from (can you say: the patriarchy?!) so we can heal it for good. It’s time to make peace with the trauma in your heart. Therapy can help.

Healing from toxic relationships or shitty childhood experiences.
The pain of being mistreated by a loved one or a parent can really suck. No, really. Relational trauma cuts deeeeep and can have an impact on your physical, mental, and emotional health for years. Hey, no shame. Let’s work together to face the hurt of toxic+abusive relationships and unlearn the shitty messages you received so you can heal and find peace. You can learn to trust yourself again, and believe it or not, you can learn to feel safe in relationships with others.
