You do not have to have everything figured out before you reach out—you only have to take the first step. I’m Sharon Corliss, MSW, LICSW, a licensed therapist serving adults in Massachusetts as an LICSW and in Connecticut, Florida, and Texas as an LCSW. I specialize in helping individuals heal from trauma, navigate grief and loss, manage anxiety and depression, and cope with life transitions, relationship challenges, and stress. My approach is collaborative, client-centered, and trauma-informed. I believe healing happens in a safe, supportive environment where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow at your own pace. Together, we’ll identify your strengths, develop practical coping strategies, and work toward meaningful goals that fit your unique needs. I integrate evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Trauma-Focused CBT, and Seeking Safety, while tailoring treatment to what works best for you. Much of my career has been dedicated to supporting Veterans and others facing life’s most difficult challenges. Whether you’re working through the effects of trauma, grieving a loss, or feeling overwhelmed by life’s demands, you don’t have to face it alone. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel difficult, but you don’t have to have everything figured out before you begin. I would be honored to walk alongside you as you move toward healing, resilience, and lasting positive change.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with 20 years of experience — and a woman who has navigated midlife, reinvention, and the seasons of life that quietly change you. That lived experience shapes every session I offer. I specialize in working with women who are strong on the outside but exhausted on the inside — women navigating menopause, identity shifts, heartbreak, dating, and the complicated feeling of standing at a crossroads wondering who they are becoming. I'm warm and direct. I'll hold space when you need to be heard and gently challenge you when you're ready to grow. Clients tell me they feel safe being real with me from the very first conversation — and that they leave sessions feeling clearer, lighter, and more like themselves. My approach blends evidence-based therapy with mind-body practices rooted in mindfulness, breathwork, and somatic awareness — because healing lives in the body too, not just the mind. If you've been carrying something alone for too long or simply know that something needs to shift — I'm here. Just come as you are.

Hi! My name is Vyvian Nguyen, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in New Mexico and Texas. My work is grounded in trauma‑informed, culturally responsive care, shaped by years of supporting people across the lifespan as they navigate what life has been brewing. Serving in the U.S. Navy as a Master‑at‑Arms has helped me understand service members, veterans, and their families whether it’s the tension that builds from deployments, the stress of switching between civilian and military life, or the pressure to keep everything together. It also taught me the importance of having a space where you don’t have to be “on” all the time. As a Vietnamese American with parents who came to the U.S. as refugees after the Vietnam War part of the generation often referred to as “boat people” I grew up with a close view of cultural transitions, intergenerational patterns, and the strength it takes to rebuild in a new place. That perspective helps me support families who are newly arriving or adjusting to a new country with understanding and respect. Tea Time Therapy grew from the idea that growth doesn’t need to be rushed. Like a good cup of tea, it often needs warmth, time, and a space that feels steady enough to settle into. My style is warm, straightforward, and lightly humorous enough to ease tension without taking away from the work. You don’t need perfect words or a polished story. You just need a grounded space to slow down, breathe, and explore what’s been weighing on you at your own pace. We’ll take it one sip at a time.

My career in counseling began in 1990, leading me to earn a master's degree in counseling and gain extensive experience across outpatient and inpatient treatment settings, behavioral health programs, and hospital environments. Throughout my career, I have collaborated with medical teams to support patients facing psychiatric conditions, substance-related disorders, and behavioral health challenges. Additionally, I have worked alongside Pain Management teams to assess and differentiate patients' pain experiences from drug-seeking behaviors. Beyond direct clinical practice, I serve as a professor of counseling-related courses at a local college, where I am dedicated to training and mentoring future professionals in the field. My commitment to multicultural counseling stems from my time in the Air Force, where I had the privilege of working with diverse individuals from various backgrounds. This invaluable experience has shaped my approach, allowing me to provide culturally responsive and insightful care across a broad spectrum of client needs. I view therapy as a collaborative process—one that acknowledges your life experiences, relational dynamics, and personal beliefs that shape your worldview. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space for self-exploration, growth, and meaningful change. Trained in a range of evidence-based treatment models, I tailor my approach to align with your unique needs, ensuring a personalized and effective therapeutic experience.

As an LCSW, I'm trained in EMDR, certified in Theta Healing, Reiki, Transformational Life Coaching, and Therapeutic Touch, and am a Master Practitioner in Neuro Linguistic Programming, Hypnotherapy, and Time Line Therapy. I provide a compassionate, judgment-free space to explore your wants, needs, and emotions. You know yourself best, and our work is about uncovering your truths rather than imposing mine. Together, we'll determine the tools and approaches that best suit your needs, ensuring you feel heard, validated, and empowered. The goal is to help you confidently manage challenges independently over time. We'll walk side-by-side, with you gradually taking the lead and me offering steady support. If you have pressing concerns, those always take precedence. Our sessions focus on understanding HOW you think, not just WHAT you think, exploring both conscious and unconscious beliefs and emotions. You'll leave with clear, actionable steps, such as mindfulness exercises, creative writing prompts, meditation, and breathwork techniques to regulate emotions and reclaim your narrative. Therapy isn't about fixing what's "broken" but enhancing alignment and fulfillment while overcoming obstacles.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with adults experiencing anxiety, trauma, and ongoing life stress. I believe therapy should feel steady and purposeful — a place where you can speak honestly about what’s heavy while also making meaningful progress. My style is calm, grounded, and direct. I listen carefully, ask thoughtful questions, and help you recognize patterns that may be keeping you stuck. Together, we explore both where those patterns began and how they’re affecting your relationships, work, and sense of self today. I integrate EMDR, CBT, and ACT to address the root of distress while also building practical skills for emotional regulation and clearer decision-making. I value depth, but I also value structure — therapy should not feel aimless. I tend to work well with people who hold a lot together for others yet quietly carry internal stress, self-doubt, or unresolved experiences. I believe you don’t have to be in crisis to benefit from therapy. When someone is ready to look beneath the surface, not just manage symptoms but understand and shift what’s underneath, that’s where meaningful change begins.

Whether you’re dealing with the weight of old trauma or just feeling over-stimulated by life, we use hard-hitting DBT and ACT tools to regulate your nervous system in real-time. I’m a Texas-based therapist who values grit, accountability, and authenticity. Tattoos, metal music, and motorcycle gear are always welcome here.

Hi there! Welcome. My name is Dr. Richards and I have over 16 years of expert training and experience in the field of Education, Counseling & Psychology. I thoroughly enjoy providing mental health services to individuals and their families in need of treatment. Even when you’re feeling hopeless, stressed, or overwhelmed, those moments don’t last forever—they’re part of a season, not your whole story. With the right support, you can move through them. My goal is to help you gain clarity and direction so you can reach your full potential and reconnect with your purpose. Regardless of your past fears, setbacks, or self-doubt, change is always possible. I use Cognitive-Behavioral, DBT-informed, and interpersonal treatment approaches to tailor each session to your individual needs. I also administer screening tools as needed, to help better identify symptoms related to depression and anxiety. Together, we’ll build coping strategies that work for you, incorporating techniques such as poetry, music, art, movement, and writing according to your interest and needs. I’ll support you in identifying and working through negative, self-defeating thoughts and patterns that may be holding you back. In a safe, nonjudgmental space, we’ll work through challenges, strengthen self-compassion, and help you move forward with greater confidence and intention. For couples struggling, I help to identify root issues that negatively impact your relationship and incorporate evidenced-based resources to start the process of change in a practical healthy way.

I work with adults who are experiencing trauma, OCD, anxiety, grief, depression, and relationship frustrations. I offer a warm, welcoming environment for clients and I am neurodivergent and LGBTQ+ supporting. I firmly believe that our society has systemic oppression baked in and I aim to practice cultural humility in my work. As a licensed therapist and supervisor with fifteen years of experience working across a variety of settings, my understanding of how complex and layered each person’s story can be has been shaped by everyone I've come across. My approach is trauma informed, collaborative, and grounded in respect for autonomy and lived experience. I aim to create a space where you feel safe and valued. Judgment from a therapist is a common concern and while I might challenge certain narratives or beliefs, I draw my responses from a place of curiosity. I find it important to stay up to date on the science of how the brain works and the studies that guide our psychological understanding. Quite a few people come to me and filter themselves somehow. For example, I hear people say, "...I know that sounds crazy" or they apologize for cursing in a session. I want therapy to be a place where you can show up as you are. I am difficult to offend and I am not listening to your words so I can judge how your brain says things to you or how you say things to me. The important thing is for you to just say it and we will glean whatever helpful data we can. Please note: I am unable to prescribe medication, assess for ADHD/ADD, or write ESA letters. Many times, a psychiatrist can help with these pieces. Although this platform offers AI options, I will not ever utilize AI for your care.

Hello! I bring 17 years of mental health experience along for your sessions. I have been in private practice since January of 2023. I consider myself a generalist and I'm happy to help you with any need or concern that you might have. Some of the areas where I have the most experience are depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and grief and loss. I have spent the majority of my career working in a University setting and have helped many college-age adults make meaningful changes. I have also worked in behavioral health clinics and have experience working with clients that have been legally referred to therapy. I work with almost all age groups however, I typically do not work with persons under the age of 18. If you are a minor, please have your guardian consult with me before scheduling an intake and I will consider your need and my areas of expertise and help you determine our next steps. I am also no longer able to accommodate couples therapy. If you are seeking a couples therapy session I will be happy to assist you with a referral. At this time, I am unable to assist with FMLA paperwork.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
