My goal as a therapist is to help clients face both the real and perceived challenges in their lives with clarity, support, and renewed strength. I approach each person as a unique human being with their own story, strengths, and struggles, and I see therapy as a collaborative process of moving forward together. I work in a way that is direct and pragmatic, drawing on psychoeducation and clinical experience to give clients new ways of seeing, understanding, and coping with life’s difficulties. At the same time, my style is deeply connection-based, rooted in empathy and authenticity, with room for levity when appropriate. I am a hopeful therapist who believes in the process of growth and in our ability as human beings to continually renew ourselves. I find it a genuine honor to share in a client’s journey, and I approach the work with respect, presence, and care. I work with a wide range of mental health concerns, including anxiety and anxiety disorders, depression, bipolar disorder, relationship and coupling challenges, parenting stress, OCD, and many others.

I started my career as a marriage and family therapist working in residential settings with youth in the foster care and juvenile justice systems. As a child, I experienced trauma when my family had to flee as refugees from a war-torn country. Applying my own history and experiences, I am able to connect with my clients, understand their experiences, and help them deal with their trauma head-on. As a clinician, I try to understand each individual holistically, including their background and the strengths they already possess, to provide an individualized approach.

As a Doctor of Psychology and Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist for 45+ years, I am experienced in helping my clients deal with issues such as Loss and Grief Recovery, Substance Abuse, Anger Management, Crisis Counseling, Stress Reduction, Depression and Anxiety. I provide a calm, empathetic, and nurturing environment where you will feel heard, and most importantly, understood. Together we will work on ways to help you understand your feelings and compulsions. My grieving clients experience closure through writing letters to their loved ones who have died. This letter writing is effective for all forms of loss. Reading the letters aloud is very healing as it encourages acceptance, and permits moving on to build a life filled with love and laughter. I've dealt with my own grief, loss and growth by writing a book series, "The Adventures of the Angel Oleo," as well as "The Dog Bible for Humans - Advice from Dogs to Humans of All Ages." I hope you have an opportunity to read one of my books and that I get to help you, and someone you know.

Hi, I'm Stephanie, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor! Seeking out support can be terrifying, hard and intimidating; so first, I want to acknowledge the efforts that you've made that has lead you here. If you're exploring therapy for the first time, or returning to it, I'm genuinely grateful and proud that you've taken this step towards caring for your mental health and emotional wellbeing. Growing up, I saw firsthand the powerful difference it made when mental health was met with compassion, and the harm when it was met with stigma. Those experiences shaped the way I view the world and ultimately led me to this work. Because of this, I became the kind of counselor who listens without judgment, shows up with honesty, and creates a space where people can feel seen. I will always show up authentically in this work because I believe you deserve to feel safe being your authentic self, too. I have a deep love for the work I get to do, and look forward to the potential opportunity to work together. We’ll take the journey together, one step at a time.

We were never taught how to be in a relationship of any kind. Yes there are tons of books of how to, however to put them to practical use can be very difficult. This can also relate to a relationship with a family member, friends or co-workers. Sometimes our own mental health can influence all of our relationships, and you may need coping techniques for anxiety and or depression type symptoms. I will work with you individually to help you gain insight to your own behavior that may be influencing your relationship. I am here to help beit coping strategies for anxiety and depression symptoms or learning how to communicate more effectively with others.

I approach our first session with wanting to know what prompted you to book the session. This is because people usually book a therapy session with an issue in mind, or with a problem to solve. I assure you that if you are motivated to change your mindset and ready to work on yourself, that you will be able to feel more peaceful and calm with just one session, and you will leave knowing that you will be able to solve what is going on. We tend to be harsh and critical of ourselves thinking that will promote change when that only causes us to procrastinate and feel depression and anxiety. To address this I offer you my book endorsed by His Holiness the Dalai Lama on self-forgiveness- find it on Amazon and in Barnes & Noble, "The Chiron Effect: Healing Our Core Wounds through Astrology, Empathy, and Self-Forgiveness." I offer you my podcast- "All Things Therapy," which can be found on iTunes and Spotify. It is a mental health and wellness-focused podcast with over 425 episodes related to mental health, fitness, and personal transformation for you to dig into. I intend that the show augments therapy and gives you a resource to look for topics you are facing in the show titles and then listen and apply what is offered and see how that changes things for you.

Therefore, I utilize various approaches: ACT, CBT, distress tolerance skills, Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness, and trauma-informed care with a strengths-based slant. We will work on how to break through emotional challenges, achieve goals, and enjoy life. I am experienced in working with adults who experience anxiety, depression, relational conflicts, difficult life transitions, and addiction.

Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming, but I strive to make the process easier by creating a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with six years of experience, I specialize in helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, life transitions, and relationship challenges. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of your next steps, I offer a practical, down-to-earth approach that meets you where you are.My clients appreciate that I'm genuine, nonjudgmental, and easy to talk to. Therapy with me is a collaboration—I’m here to help you process emotions, untangle patterns, and build strategies that make sense for your life. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach, and we’ll work together to create a plan that aligns with your needs and goals. I also understand the complexities of identity, relationships, and navigating life’s pressures, especially for young to middle aged adults who are juggling careers, personal growth, and interpersonal dynamics. If you’re feeling unseen, unheard, or just need space to sort things out, you don’t have to do it alone.

Hi, I am Denise, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with almost 18 years of experience. Are you struggling in your work or family life? Is it impacting your relationships? Most of us go through life events that leave us battered and bruised but there are some things that we might go through that stay with us and impact our ability to navigate our daily lives. Many of us have experienced that and there is a way to walk through it and come out on the other side leaving the pain behind but keeping the meaningful lessons safely with us. If you have experienced this kind of incident, it would be a privilege to walk that journey to wholeness with you. I provide a safe space to unpack the stress, anxiety and pain that often keep us stuck. Before we begin to open any doors or unpack any spaces, we will talk about self-care, grounding and other techniques to manage overwhelming feelings. Together we will create a place that provides physical and emotional safety, a place where healing can begin.

I hold a Master of Arts in Spiritual and Counseling Psychology and my clinical training included community mental health settings, psychiatric/addiction residential treatment and school based settings as well as ongoing my private practice. ​ I believe we all have the inner resources and innate ability to access our strengths, intuition and knowledge in order to create the changes and growth we want in our lives in spite of life’s present challenges or past trauma. ​ I am committed to supporting my clients in releasing the self defeating thoughts, beliefs, emotions and addictive behaviors that keep you from experiencing emotional and spiritual wellness. My approach combines practical strategies with mindfulness and acceptance based interventions.
