Dr. Blackham
Hello! I am a licensed psychologist who is passionate about helping others to live their authentic lives. I work collaboratively with clients who are struggling with unhelpful thoughts and emotions, coping with stress, maintaining meaningful relationships, and navigating life transitions. As a member of the LGBTQ community, compassion and acceptance for all identities is at the heart of my work. I am committed to creating a safe, affirming space for every client.
I work collaboratively with clients who are struggling with unhelpful thoughts and emotions, coping with stress, maintaining meaningful relationships, and navigating life transitions.
I also provide psychological testing using a collaborative method that goes beyond diagnosis to help clients understand themselves better and solve problems. Testing can be requested as an adjunct to therapy or as a stand-alone service.
Approach to Therapy
My style is flexible and down-to-earth. I'll tailor our sessions to what works best for you, combining approaches that help you notice and change unhelpful thinking patterns, develop more compassion for yourself, and understand how past experiences shape how you relate to other people and yourself. My work is informed by an interpersonal neurobiological framework. In therapy, I help clients explore internal and interpersonal experiences that shape the way they respond to life's challenges. I also empower clients to take practical, actionable steps to feel better and live authentically using CBT/DBT and Solution Focused interventions.
