Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I have always been dedicated to helping diverse communities, having volunteered at several non profit agencies. Over the years, I have spent her time working in community centers as a mentor and doing community outreach through a Oakland non profit. This has inspired me to make a change in as many lives as possible. I hope to help you find a sense of belonging and the tools to achieve their dreams.
I achieved my Bachelors of Science in Human Services with a focus on Counseling at Northeastern University, located in Boston, Massachusetts. My Masters in Social Work followed at Simmons College.
I was raised in Oakland, where a sense of community is very important and sparked my desire to work in similar diverse communities. I come from a loving family that taught me to embrace people of all walks of life. I have brought those ideals into how I practice therapy. I often use a multicultural approach in therapy as well as cognitive behavior therapy, dialectical behavior therapy and narrative therapy.

Raised in Oakland, Avery developed an early appreciation for the importance of community and learned from a loving family to welcome people from all walks of life.

Many people wonder whether connecting with a therapist online can truly help. For a range of common concerns—such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or major life changes—online therapy has been found to be as effective as traditional in-person care for addressing those issues.
One of the main benefits is the flexibility it offers. People can meet with therapists in the format that feels most comfortable to them, whether through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This range of options makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and maintain continuity of care.
All participating therapists are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to change therapists if they are seeking a different fit. For many individuals, online therapy provides an accessible, practical way to get support and work toward their goals.
