Licensed Clinical Social Worker/Outpatient Therapist
I have more than 15 years of experience as a therapist and I have successfully helped individuals who were struggling with difficult life transitions, medical conditions, parenting and relationship issues, grief and loss; as well as individuals dealing with the added challenge of living with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and past traumatic events. I work with adults and couples.
Life is difficult. Relationships are difficult. Everyone experiences moments when they feel completely overwhelmed and unsure of how to get their life back on track. Having an anxiety or mood disorder can make this process feel even more overwhelming. No matter what challenges you may be facing, therapy can help. My goal as your therapist is to gain an understanding of your unique situation and challenges. I will work with you (or you and your partner) to develop a personalized approach that will help you achieve your individual goals and feel in control of your life again.

Licensed Psychologist/ Outpatient Therapist
With over 40 years of experience in community mental health, I have worked with a broad base of clientele, including adults, adolescents and teens with varying issues and disorders. My experience includes treating schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders, personality disorders, dual diagnoses, autism spectrum disorders, mood disorders, suicidal ideation, anxiety and stress. I have also had the privilege of working with victims of sexual abuse and with those who have experienced various childhood trauma.
My approach to therapy is predominantly cognitive behavioral and client centered. I believe that having a good connection/alliance with the client is important in the therapeutic process. I strive to create an environment where the client can feel safe to share, without fear of judgment or condemnation. I consider therapy to be a collaborative process in that the therapist does not have all the answers, and thus respects the knowledge base and experience of the client.
I have largely engaged in individual therapy with adult men and women. I also have enjoyed working with adolescent clients, mostly male, including mandated juveniles. Issues I can help with include (but are not limited to): Trauma, depression, anxiety, chronic stress, suicidal ideation, self-esteem, juvenile sexual offending, sexual abuse, spirituality (Christian), grief, anger management, psychotic disorders, relationship issues, codependency, family conflict.
Treatment approach: Cognitive Behavioral, trauma informed, motivational interviewing, client centered, solution focused, positive psychology, pastoral

My philosophy is that clients are the experts on their own lives, and sometimes we all need guidance and support to achieve what we want to achieve.

I enjoy working with clients of all ages, from young children to adults. I have also worked with a variety of different diagnoses and can help clients with a variety of issues, including anxiety, depression, grief/loss, self esteem, and relationship issues.
When working with children and adolescents, I often incorporate games and play into therapy to engage and allow them to express themselves in developmentally appropriate ways. I enjoy helping all my clients gain insight and promote growth so they can live happy and healthy lives.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than 30 years of experience. My experience has been in addictions, ADHD in adults, depression, anxiety, OCD, autism spectrum disorder, schizophrenia, and personality disorders. Throughout my career, have also found myself drawn to those who are also involved in the criminal justice system.

Outpatient Therapist (Specialty: Children/Teens/Families)
You don’t have to struggle alone. The bravest thing anyone can do is to ask for help. My goal in counseling is to create an environment where you feel heard and understood as we address issues you feel are important.
For over twenty years I have worked with individuals in the business sector to over- come obstacles in their careers. Through self-awareness and understanding thought patterns, I have been able to guide individuals to realign behaviors in order to obtain the careers they desired.
My educational background is in child development, self-esteem, and parenting techniques. In today’s society, children face different social pressures and parents need encouragement and guidance to be better equipped to support their child’s development. Our young adults are feeling alone and less connected. Together, I will work with your child on strategies that allow them to address the root causes of their difficulties and build meaningful social connections.
Treatment approach: Cognitive Behavioral, Adlerian theory, client centered, solution focused, Mindfulness, and individualized based plans that goal focused.

Licensed Social Worker/Outpatient Therapist
(Languages: English, Spanish)
Hi! I’m a Licensed Social Worker & Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist providing in-person and/or Telehealth therapy sessions. I understand the intimidation factor associated with personal growth. My goal is to build a therapeutic environment through mutual respect, trust, and open-mindedness.
As a therapist, I use a relaxed, conversational approach to establish trust as the foundation of our working relationship. As things progress, I use a conversational and approachable style to support clients through their individual experiences, including their triumphs and trials.
I’ve worked with clients presenting with mood disorders, personality disorders, substance use disorders, and adjustment disorders in the clinical environment. Additionally, clients have presented with suicidal ideation, self-harm behaviors, grief/loss, family conflict, and peer relationships. I prefer to use an individualistic therapeutic approach by using a combination of practices to fit my clients’ needs & personality.
My ideal client is someone who shows up to sessions. Simple enough, if you don’t show, then I can’t be a resource for you; if you show up for4me, I promise to show up for you. Together, we will uncover how you can actively show up for yourself and searching for a therapist is a perfect way to start!
I believe in equality for all and that love is love; I enjoy learning more about what I can do to improve the social climate. I watch True Crime & psychological thrillers with my puppy, Donut, or have my earbuds in to block out the world around me. Admittedly, I love scrolling through TikTok and sharing memes to get a good laugh everyday. Thank you for taking the time to read about me; I look forward to meeting you!

Licensed Social Worker/Certified Trauma Professional/Outpatient Therapist
As a therapist who has walked alongside a variety of client populations, ranging from older adults with traumatic brain injury diagnoses, children on the autism spectrum, to men and women with dual diagnoses of substance use disorder and mental health, I strongly believe in the empowerment of the individual.
Through the lens of strengths-based, trauma informed approaches—promoting self-compassion, and autonomy—I strive to support my clients through life events, anxiety and depressive symptoms, difficulties with self-worth and poor self-esteem, familial discord, grief/loss, codependency, and substance use.
I lead with the collaborative notion that my clients are the experts while providing psychoeducation and therapeutic challenges that coincide with my clients overarching goals.
I believe in the power of vulnerability, self-efficacy, the promotion of self-compassion, and the value of connection. I utilize motivational interviewing techniques in addition to cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavioral based intervention modalities.
I am an animal lover, love a plethora of musical genres, and believe in the immense benefit of time spent in nature.

(Additional Specialty: LGBTQI)
Change is hard. When you’re in the middle of a life transition, it’s easy to feel lost. Heading off to college or a new career, going through a divorce or a newly “empty nest”, questioning your religious faith or your sexuality are just some of the things that can make you feel like you’re not sure who you are anymore. Maybe you want to make a change, but can’t figure out which direction you want to go. We all need guidance at times.
As a mother of a trans child, issues relating to gender identity and expression are close to my heart. I offer a safe, affirming, and welcoming space in a world that too often is not. Everyone's story is unique. I want to hear your story and help you get to know yourself better so that you can find your own unique way of being in this world.

Life Coaching
Reach Your Full Potential!
What is Life Coaching?
Life coaching is a wellness approach to life management that provides guidance and support to individuals seeking greater fulfillment in their lives. Life coaches help their clients in numerous ways, including improving their careers, relationships, and day-to-day lives. Life coaching differs from psychotherapy in that it deals with populations who are experiencing life dissatisfaction and seeking guidance with maximizing their potential, whereas psychotherapy addresses more clinical concerns, including depression, anxiety and trauma.
Life coaches assist clients with goal setting, identification of barriers to success, and decision-making, along with developing strategies for overcoming obstacles. By creating these strategies, life coaches target a client’s unique skills and gifts. By helping clients make the most of their strengths, life coaches provide the support needed to achieve lasting improvement.
There are a number of indications that working with a life coach may be beneficial for you. These signs include:
- Frequent irritability
- High levels of stress
- Inability to break bad habits, including involvement with the legal/criminal justice system
- Lack of fulfillment in your social life
- Persistent feeling of dissatisfaction at work
- Sense of blocked creativity
