Life often times brings us through situations that become complex based on the unique way we view the world. This complexity of thought emotions and preconceived notions form the manner in which we cope with or deal with life. This is especially true when dealing with addiction, anxiety, trauma, anger, depression, divorce; and those times our lives when things just don't seem right. Together we will create an awareness of you. Through this awareness the areas needing change will surface, it is then that the skills needed to implement the change you have chosen are developed.

Greetings! Are you feeling overwhelmed by day- to day issues? Are you struggling in your relationships, or having difficulties communicating with others? Do you just need a safe space to vent? These are all normal daily occurrences. This may be where you'll begin in therapy. However, the goal is to increase coping skills and decrease adverse symptoms as time progresses. My goal is to connect with you and truly understand your needs and goals. Expect an environment free of judgment where you can speak freely and show up as your authentic self. My approach is person-centered while utilizing appropriate evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. I help support young adults, individuals, and couples that may be dealing with a range of challenges in their lives related to trauma, anxiety, and depression.

Hello, my name is Kelley Machado, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Connecticut. You may wonder what does Licensed Clinical Social Worker mean, what does that allow me to do? As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker I have the unique opportunity to help people work through various points in their lives. In the years I have been a social worker I have worked with various populations of people from many socioeconomic, cultural, and racial backgrounds as well as people with various presenting concerns. I began my career working in the mental health system, then the criminal justice system, then onto medical social work including various medical issues as well as aging and end of life concerns. I believe people can experience difficulties with coping whenever faced with a transition in life. These changes can include monumental transitions that are both good or bad, like a new job, new family members, loss, separations, disappointments, traumatic events, etc. These types of experiences can cause psychosocial distress which can have far-reaching impacts on many aspects of our lives. I work with my clients who include children, adults, couples, and families to find healthy coping methods in order to gain a healthier perception of themselves which can help to strengthen their relationships with themselves and others so they can find themselves as comfortable, secure, and whole. I take time to get to know each of my clients on an individual basis so that I can tailor approaches to care because I have learned that not one approach impacts and helps all clients. I have been trained and adopted many approaches to provide therapeutic support including cognitive-behavioral, attachment theory, developmental theory, trauma theory, and dialectical behavioral theory. Change is not easy and embarking on change takes a tremendous amount of courage and actions. I congratulate you on your wish, strength, and wisdom for seeking help and taking this first step towards making a change in your life. If you are prepared to move beyond wishes and intentions to action and fulfillment- I am here to empower and support you to achieve your goals. I would love to help you reach your goals, whatever that may be in life so you can move forward

Hello! I am an LPC based in Oklahoma and received my degree from John Brown University. I love to work with clients who struggle with things that have happened to them in their lives, and who struggle with relationships, and how they feel about themselves. I dive into family history as I believe that has a great impact on a person. I want to help others become the best version of themselves. I also provide biblical counseling for those that are searching for faith-based. I believe that our family history shapes us but healing and freedom come by Yahweh.

I work with Millennial & Gen Z women experiencing high-functioning anxiety, ADHD, or both. Through action-oriented talk therapy and skill-building, you can achieve practical, long-term relief. Faith-based counseling may also be utilized. You may be seeking guidance to work through career changes, perfectionism, peopIe-pleasing, and self-doubt. Navigating dating & relationships and managing anxious attachment may also be difficult. During sessions, you will learn skills to help break out of constant worry, fear, and "what-if" thought patterns. I additionally work alongside women looking to heal from "situationships", gain assertiveness skills, and reduce masking tendencies. We'll explore self-confidence, Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) traits, and practice daily nervous system regulation techniques. lf you're ready to take the next step toward anxiety & ADHD management, let's taIk. Together, we'll create a roadmap to lead you back to the core of your authentic self: a calmer, more emotionally balanced, and self-assured You.

I listen and try to understand your situation and learn what it's like to be you. I can offer suggestions but I won't tell you what to do. I believe that my clients know what they need to do to help them heal, it might not be clear right away but after I am able to understand your problems we can work together to find solutions. It's a big step to seek counseling and to go into therapy. I respect everyone who wants to improve their mental health and well being. It isn't easy to seek help and allow oneself to be vulnerable and share ones' experience. I have listened to thousands of people and I am delighted hear everyone's story to see how I can help.

Hi there! Taking the step into, or back into, therapy is an important one. My goal is to support you in the effort by being warm and compassionate as a clinician to help you feel as secure as possible in the process. If you would like a partner to help sift through experiences in your life to draw out insights that allow you to feel more empowered in your life to take control and make decisions that are more authentic to you, I am here. I believe many of us turn to therapy when we need support in managing difficult aspects and realities in our life, and finding ways to be more at peace with those aspects so that we can have more control of our individual lives is an overall aim of our work together.

I bring something to individual and couples therapy that is rare today and not from a text book, that is lived experience. In drawing from different evidence based schools of thought in combination with my lived experiences we will employ such modalities of therapy such as Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy. Adversity and struggle are situations that are common. The goal to avoid both would be ideal but that is not reality. Peace and calmness in the mist of adversity and struggle is a possible reality and what we will strive to help you achieve.
