As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT), I help men navigate the tension between high-demand careers and the challenges that can arise in their relationships and personal lives. If you're feeling overwhelmed by stress, disconnected from the people who matter most, or caught in unhealthy coping patterns, I provide a direct, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can better understand what's happening and create lasting change. Together, we'll identify the underlying issues driving these patterns, strengthen emotional awareness, rebuild trust and connection, and develop practical tools to help you live with greater integrity, purpose, and confidence.

Hi, I’m Scott, a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with adults and couples navigating anxiety, trauma, depression, substance use, and relationship challenges. Many of the people I work with feel stuck in painful patterns, overwhelmed by emotions, or unsure how to move forward despite wanting real change. Therapy can be a place to slow down, make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface, and begin creating a different way of living. I also specialize in men’s mental health and supporting veterans facing the unique stressors of service, transition, and identity. I provide a nonjudgmental, supportive space where you can safely explore your experiences while gaining insight into thoughts, behaviors, and relationship patterns that may no longer serve you. My trauma-informed approach is compassionate and collaborative, balancing empathy with gentle, honest feedback to support meaningful change.

My name is Rina and I have been a practicing social worker for nearly 25 years. I have been independently licensed since 2012, and over time I have made good connections in populations such as youth/ adolescents and adults (individuals, couples and seniors). I have worked with homeless and high risk youth, foster children and the families that care for them, with the LGBTQ community as an advocate and an ally and most recently in service to active duty men and women in the USAF . I believe everyone deserves to live a life of meaning and contentment, and that this looks different for different people! We can all use a little assistance in navigating the different curve balls and set backs that inevitably arise along the way. I know connection, trust and respect are important elements of all relationships, including the relationship between therapist and client. I work first to establish connection and then develop mutual trust and respect with you as we move through your wellness journey, together.

Hi, I'm Lucas, and I'm really glad you're here. The searching can get annoying, trust me, I know. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 8 years of experience in addiction and mental health, including directing an Intensive Outpatient Program. I graduated from Arizona State University with a Master's in Social Work in 2023. I'm not the "perfect expert" type. I'd rather be the person in your corner who shows up fully, celebrates your progress, and says the hard things when they need to be said. I'm warm and genuine; I bring real energy to every session, yes, even through a screen, and I practice what I teach because mental health is something we all work at. Expect me to be direct, and don't be surprised if I send you home with "homework." Growth happens in the everyday moments, not just the hour we spend together. My job is simple: help you reconnect with your strengths, build real confidence, and move toward the life you actually want. You're worth that work. Let's get started.

Hi, I’m Ebonie. I’ve been a therapist for 14 years, and my style is down-to-earth, compassionate, and real. My goal is to create a safe, honest space where you can finally resolve the issues that are weighing you down. I don’t just sit back and nod — I’m engaged, I ask meaningful questions, and I help you get to the heart of what’s really going on. Every client is unique, and I adapt my approach to fit your needs. Whether you’re working through anxiety, healing from trauma, facing a life transition, or simply feeling stuck, I’ll bring both practical tools and proven methods to support your growth. Above all, I show up consistently and authentically, and I never take your trust for granted. One approach I use is EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing). It’s a highly researched therapy that helps people process painful memories so they no longer feel as overwhelming. With gentle tools like eye movements or tapping, your brain can reprocess old experiences in a healthier way. The memory doesn’t disappear, but the emotional weight it carries often does. EMDR has been shown to help with trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and more. We always go at your pace, and I’ll walk with you step by step. Book an appointment today.

Hello, Thank you for reviewing my profile. Briefly; I am Licensed Naturopathic Doctor, a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor I work with adult professional women dealing with anxiety, depression, past unresolved trauma, grief, stress and relationship issues. My philosophy is that we need positive human beings in our lives, to 'see' us and bear witness to our lives. In order for us to be fully human, we need at least one supportive individual who validates the part of us that needs healing. We need meaningful experiences to help us navigate this journey called life. My training as a Naturopathic Doctor affords me a lens to also consider, incorporate and integrate diet & lifestyle practices for your overall well-being. So, if you are tired of being tired, anxious, sad, depressed and you're just going through the motions, feeling stuck in dysfunctional patterns that drain you; AND you are willing to do the work to get well, then you need skilled, compassionate support to help you get unstuck and get your life back on track, so that you can experience purposeful living. As our paths intersect her, I start with the intention that you to "prosper and be in health even as your soul prospers" 3 John 2.

Welcome! I'm Danielle. Take a moment to acknowledge you've taken the first step towards bettering your mental health because, let's be honest - starting therapy can be empowering, confusing, or scary, all at the same time. Try as we might, sometimes happiness and contentment always seem just out of reach. Depression, anxiety and stress can make getting out of bed in the morning a daunting task. Troubles in your relationship or conflict in the family can make you feel helpless or overwhelmed. Creating a daily routine using strategies that ground you and support moving forward in areas where you feel stuck. Improving your outlook on life to see past the stressful events that feel overwhelming. Talking through challenges and learning different ways to look at something in order to make progress, even when feeling depressed and anxious. As a therapist, it is my goal for clients to feel empowered and supported as we navigate through your journey to healing and wellness. I’m passionate about approaching therapy in a client centered way, and want each session to take you exactly where you need in that moment. My therapy approach is warm and accepting, focusing on establishing overall wellness. Therapy can seem daunting, we will go at a pace that is comfortable for you and discuss the topics you want. What are the tension points? Let's talk about those and develop a daily routine that grounds you and allows you to feel more in control of your life.

I believe one of the most valuable investments we can make is in ourselves. Seeking therapy is a meaningful step toward growth, healing, and building a life that feels more aligned with who you are and what you want. Whether you are navigating the stressors of daily life, experiencing overwhelming emotions, struggling to understand or communicate your feelings, or working through patterns of behavior that no longer serve you, we can work collaboratively to identify your goals and take intentional steps toward achieving them. I prioritize creating a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you feel comfortable exploring your experiences openly. A strong therapeutic relationship is central to the work we do, and I strive to foster a space where you feel both understood and appropriately challenged. My approach is empathetic yet direct—I will validate your experiences while also helping you build insight, develop new perspectives, and take actionable steps toward change. I work primarily with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, personality disorders, and eating disorders. My approach is integrative, drawing from evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and psychodynamic interventions. This allows me to tailor treatment to your unique needs, whether that involves building coping skills, processing past experiences, improving emotional regulation, or addressing underlying patterns that contribute to distress. My goal is to empower you with the tools, insight, and confidence needed not only to meet your goals but to sustain progress over time. Therapy is not just about symptom relief—it is about creating lasting change, improving overall functioning, and helping you feel more in control of your life.

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with master’s degrees in Counseling Psychology and Applied Behavior Analysis. I take an evidence-based, integrative approach to therapy, drawing from CBT, DBT, ACT, and EMDR to support clients navigating anxiety, stress, trauma, and other life challenges. I work with adolescents, young adults, and adults, including individuals with ADHD and autism, as well as those managing chronic pain or health conditions. Many of my clients are also navigating life transitions, relationship stress, emotional regulation challenges, or substance use concerns. My background allows me to combine practical, skill-based strategies with deeper emotional work, helping clients not only gain insight but also build tools they can use in everyday life. I focus on creating a collaborative, supportive space where meaningful, lasting change feels both achievable and sustainable.

I’ve been a counselor and a coach for a long time now and I have learned that to be our best, to truly make positive changes in our lives, we need to address the whole person: mind, body, and spirit. We need to fully integrate the emotional child, the intellectual adult, the physical body, and the spirit guide (soul). I believe that everyone is capable of, is in fact entitled to, a life of happiness, love, peace, and fulfillment. I utilize an integrative approach that includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), empathetic listening, mindfulness, and spirituality. Whether you are suffering from an acute mental/behavioral health condition or simply are seeking to make some positive changes in your life I can help. I have over 15 years of experience counseling adults, couples, and families in the areas of relationships, trauma, grief, addiction, stress, and general mental health. I treat all types of mood and personality disorders including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, and many others. I also coach in the areas of career, education, life balance, personal growth, and self-realization. Please reach out today. Whatever you're going through, you don't have to do it alone.

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

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.
