Welcome to Daylily Therapy: A Space for Renewal, Honesty, and Healing
When you’re navigating grief, chronic illness, big life transitions, or the weight of ongoing mental health concerns, the world can feel overwhelming. You may be doing your best to hold everything together, but inside you’re exhausted, hurting, or simply unsure of what comes next. If you’ve found your way here, you’re likely searching for support, clarity, or a place to breathe again.
Welcome. I’m glad you’re here.
Daylily Therapy was created as a calm, compassionate space where you don’t have to perform, minimize, or explain away your experience. A space where your truth is honored, your pain is held with care, and your resilience is recognized — even on the days you don’t see it in yourself.
Why I Built This Space
As a therapist, I’ve spent more than a decade supporting adults through seasons of loss, uncertainty, and change. My work has taught me that healing rarely happens in one big moment — it unfolds quietly, often in the small, unglamorous shifts that happen when someone finally feels safe enough to speak honestly, cry openly, or simply rest.
I built Daylily Therapy with that in mind: a therapy practice grounded in authenticity, inclusion, compassion, and resilience. These values guide every session and help create an environment where clients can explore difficult emotions without fear of judgment or pressure to “hurry up and feel better.”
My Approach to Therapy
My therapeutic style is warm, collaborative, and grounding. I aim to meet you exactly where you are — whether you feel lost, numb, overwhelmed by grief, frustrated with your body, or stuck in a major life transition.
I integrate evidence-based approaches like:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you notice unhelpful patterns, challenge self-blame, and build healthier internal narratives.
Mindfulness practices to cultivate presence, reduce overwhelm, and reconnect you to your own internal cues.
Strengths-based support that highlights your resilience and gives you space to grow without minimizing your struggles.
Therapy with me isn’t about “fixing” you — it’s about understanding you, supporting you, and helping you reconnect with your capacity to cope and heal.
What I Specialize In
My specialties grew out of the desire to support people who often feel overlooked or misunderstood.
Grief & Loss: Grief can reshape your world — whether you’ve lost a loved one, a relationship, a version of your future, or a part of yourself. I help clients navigate complicated grief, anticipatory grief, and the ongoing waves that show up long after the world thinks you should be “okay.”
Chronic Illness Support: Chronic illness is not just a medical condition — it’s an emotional and relational experience. Many clients feel dismissed (“It’s just anxiety”), misunderstood, or pressured to push through. Therapy becomes a place to process anger, fear, identity shifts, medical trauma, and the exhaustion of constant self-advocacy.
Life Transitions: Transitions — even positive ones — can stir up uncertainty, grief, and anxiety. Whether it’s a career shift, becoming a caregiver, adjusting to a new diagnosis, or redefining your identity, we work through the emotions and challenges that come with “what now?”
Suicidal Ideation & Self-Harm: This is an area of deep passion for me. Many people with suicidal thoughts or self-harm histories carry shame or fear seeking help. I offer a grounded, nonjudgmental space where we’ll talk openly about your experiences, develop a safety plan, and build coping strategies that support your emotional and physical wellbeing.
What You Can Expect When Working with Me
Therapy is not a linear journey, and progress doesn’t always look like big breakthroughs. More often, it looks like:
Feeling a little less alone
Being able to name your emotions with more clarity
Responding with compassion instead of self-criticism
Noticing moments of stability where there used to be overwhelm
Developing tools you can use outside of sessions
Building trust in yourself again
My role is to support you in this process — offering guidance, reflection, and structure while honoring your pace and your story.
A Therapist Who Holds Space Without Rush or Judgment
One of the most meaningful parts of my work is witnessing moments when clients begin to reconnect with themselves — when they start to breathe easier, feel less burdened, or experience glimmers of hope after a long season of heaviness.
You don’t need to “have it all together” to start therapy. You don’t need the perfect words. You don’t need a clear plan. You just need a safe place to land.
That’s what Daylily Therapy is here to offer.
If You’re Ready, I’m Here
If you’re curious about therapy, unsure where to start, or simply needing someone to talk to, you’re welcome to schedule a free 15-minute consultation. We’ll talk about what you’re looking for, what support might look like, and whether we feel like a good fit.
You deserve support that feels grounding, honest, and tailored to your story.
Whenever you’re ready, I’m here to walk with you through whatever season you’re navigating.
