Do you feel anxious or depressed? Is this affecting your relationships and overall happiness?

Therapy can help break the cycle of stress and aid in developing the necessary tools to combat life stressors.

Hello there, I am Jamey.
Do you feel like there are just not enough hours in the day, or that you are being pulled in a million different directions? Do you feel like you are struggling to keep up with your relationships, your work, or your health? Sometimes when this happens, we tend to blame the person in the mirror. Fortunately, I am here to help you get over that hump.
I strive to help you manage anxiety and avoid burnout. My goal is to help work together with you, and identify what is working well, and not so well, and help you find that balance you and so many others are looking for. I consider myself to be very adaptable to my clients, and work to find what works best specifically for you! I would also like to assure you, that you are not the only one feeling this way!
Whether you are overwhelmed, having relationship issues, dealing with trauma, or cycles of anxiety and depression, I am here to help. If you are having trouble with your children, and are seeking input and new techniques, I would be glad to assist you. Seeking therapy can feel scary, but this is the first step towards making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I will meet you with empathy and compassion in a judgment-free zone, working with evidence-based techniques to help you overcome the hang-ups and habits holding you back. Let us work together!

I ONLY SEE ADULT CLIENTS and I DON'T SEE COUPLES.
I’ve wanted to be a therapist since I was 18; I knew that I was a very self-aware, emotionally sensitive, and insightful individual. I have a genuine desire to get to know each client as a human being. I find it very easy to listen to others and am interested in solving personal problems. I like to observe and analyze people. In high school, my friends always confided in me about their problems because they saw that I was trustworthy. Before becoming a therapist, I was a medic in the US Army.
Whether you are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, or porn and sex addiction, I’m honored to support you.
I specialize in helping adults get to know themselves and feel empowered to advocate for their well-being. As we work together, you will reflect, expand your awareness, and gain tools to manage adversity and grow.

Hi - Therapy is about empowering you to make decisions that make you feel good. It's also about understanding that, even when the 'perfect' decision isn't available, that you have the strength to manage any outcome. I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a Doctorate in Marital and Family Therapy. I have over 17 years experience in treating trauma, anxiety, depression, and PTSD. I'm also an expert in compassion fatigue and burnout and dealing with career stress and boundaries. I help people struggling in areas of work and other relationships find ways to better connect and to feel like themselves once again by challenging what contributed to negative feelings in the first place. I have worked with adults my entire career, as well as youth and adolescents. My outcomes are positive because I focus on building relationships through genuineness and humor.

I help individuals, families, and couples manage the demands and challenges that life brings. Together, we will identify the causes of your challenges and develop solutions to empower yourself to find life balance. You should have a safe space to openly discuss your thoughts and feelings. Treatment should not be cookie-cutter but individualized to your needs, which is focused on in our sessions. Change is a scary concept in our lives, but it is easier when you have someone with you along the journey. I'll meet you with empathy, compassion, honesty, and evidence-based techniques to allow you to work toward the goals you want for yourself. Let's go on this journey together!

I enjoy working with adult individuals seeking to recapture opportunities to create emotional and relationship harmony. Working with individuals on their mental and functional health, phase of life, spiritual and relationship journey, I incorporate evidence-based and nontraditional strategies tailored to your needs and overall well-being. My practice focuses on assisting individuals in identifying their stored emotions and reshaping unhealthy internal language, perspectives, and behaviors. Utilizing various modalities and interventions, I work with clients as they uncover habitual negative thoughts, explore their origins, and construct new ways of thinking/feeling. Focusing on how individuals define their beliefs about themselves and their relationships, clients are encouraged to let go of unconstructive thinking patterns and restructure their mindset: ultimately reducing negative self-talk and anxiety, enriching communication in all facets of life. I achieve this by providing a non-judgmental safe space, listening to your concerns, and customizing interventions to help you meet your goals.
Currently accepting adult individual session appointments.

Hi, my name is Craig.
I'm going to go out on a limb and guess "something" isn't OK. That "something" may be new or it may have been around for quite some time. You might be able to describe that "something" perfectly or maybe you don't know what that "something" is, but you know you are just feeling "off". Maybe you are familiar with therapy, or maybe this is the first time considering it. The only thing that matters at this moment is that you are taking that first step. I start from where you are at and work with you from there. No assumptions, judgements, or "one size fits all" approaches. Just a desire to understand you, your needs and your goals for therapy.
Therapy is a different experience for everyone. I understand that and we will work together in addressing whatever has led you to taking this first step.

“Just tell me what I should do!” Are you struggling with a specific issue, relationship conflict(s), or feeling stuck in a rut? Seeking support when you recognize that you can’t keep doing the same thing over-and-over is a brave, admirable step. Having your own personal, dedicated support will help you uncover your inner strength. Together we can define new ways to help move through situations with healthier outcomes. We all have the answers within, sometimes it takes a different perspective to help you recognize what your strengths are. Allow me to be that someone who helps you see yourself more clearly to allow yourself to make healthier decisions.
My approach is driven by you. You will receive tools and techniques unique to you and your stage of change. My goal is to help you achieve your goals and help identify the steps that will get you there. With over 14 years of experience, you will have someone that listens to you non-judgmentally, will offer suggestions (and sometimes homework!) to help you improve and move through tough obstacles. Remember, “The only way to get through it is to go through it!” I would be honored to support your journey.

Hello, I'm Dr. Zhang,
Do you feel overwhelmed by life stress? Do you have difficulty concentrating, making decisions, or getting motivated? Depression and anxiety are common reactions to chronic or acute stress. It's important to take time and care for ourselves. I help clients understanding their current difficulties and developing effective strategies and solutions.
Seeking therapy can be a scary process. It's difficult to be vulnerable with a stranger. I believe clients should be treated with compassion, dignity, and respect. I encourage you to reach out and begin the healing process.

I have a specialization working with couples, families and individuals; as well as substance abuse/chemical dependency and addiction treatment (porn, sex & gambling). In many cases the depressed and anxious client is self medicating in some way to alter underlying feelings of depression, anxiety and intimacy/attachment issues. I use Somatic Experiencing, a very effective treatment for trauma/PTSD symptoms, helping the body and mind regulate itself. Clients in relationships with loved ones addicted or abusing substances can benefit from therapy to learn how to take care of themselves so as to limit the toxicity of the proximity
I utilize CBT, psychodynamic, solution focused and the John Gottman strategies. Clients learn that thoughts create feelings, mood then affect. With couples and families my job is to provide a safe place where effective communication can develop, listening and most importantly the ability to respond to each other rather than react/ conflict resolution.
I treat compulsive sexual behaviors, chemical dependency, anger management & PTSD. I will assess, diagnose & write a letter for patients wanting to travel with their pet, allowing them to live without harassment from landlords and airlines etc.

Are you struggling with issues related to depression, anxiety, substance use, trauma, grief, or major life changes? You, like the many clients I've supported over the last 15 years, may be struggling with circumstances outside of your control, feel dissatisfied with the way substances are impacting your life, or are struggling to stay motivated or connected to the version of yourself you would like to be. Using basic principles from common and evidence based practices such as ACT and CBT, combined with client centered and solutions focused approach, I can work with you to help you impact the change you would like to see in your life.
