My name is Janae and I come with a background in crisis intervention, trauma, and behavioral assessment. Over the years, I’ve worked with a wide range of people, from first responders to teens to individuals navigating major life transitions, burnout, or high-stress environments. My experience in both clinical and field-based settings has shaped a practical, grounded approach to therapy that’s focused on understanding patterns, identifying what’s working, and building strategies that last beyond the session. My work is informed by trauma-informed care, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and a strengths-based perspective. I believe people do the best they can with the tools they have, and therapy is often about expanding that toolkit—finding new ways to manage stress, communicate effectively, and move through difficult experiences with more steadiness and clarity. I aim to create a space that feels calm, direct, and collaborative. Clients often describe me as straightforward and approachable; I don’t use a lot of jargon, and I value real, honest conversation over clinical formalities. Whether we’re working through a crisis, processing complex emotions, or setting boundaries in relationships, my goal is to help you feel more in control of your life and better equipped to handle what comes next. Ultimately, I see therapy as a partnership, one that combines your expertise on your own life with my experience in human behavior and resilience. Together, we can make sense of what’s happening, identify meaningful goals, and work toward lasting change in a way that feels authentic to you.

Hello and welcome to my website! My name is Diana Uribe, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who is passionate about helping individuals empower themselves and live their best lives! I have a B.A. from the University of Utah in Salt Lake City and obtained my MSW from the University of California, Los Angeles. During my education and career, I've had the opportunity to work with victims of domestic violence and human trafficking, older adults, veterans, hospice patients, and survivors of childhood abuse and trauma. I've also taught parenting classes and life skills workshops and facilitated counseling support groups. I know that it can be difficult to seek help. It would be an honor for me to partner with you in order to reach your emotional, mental, spiritual, and physical well-being. I am currently accepting teletherapy clients for therapy and life coaching on a biweekly basis. Please feel free to reach out and tell me about yourself and what you're looking for. I look forward to hearing from you!

My name is Mark, and I have dedicated more than 15 years to working with families and youth in the foster care system. Before entering the field of foster care, I served as a combat medic in the military. This experience shaped my commitment to helping others and laid the foundation for my career. I have always been drawn to roles where I can make a positive impact on others’ lives. Helping people has become my true passion. In all my work, I strive to share joy and compassion, centering my approach on the unique needs of each individual I support.
