If you are stressed about life or dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, finances, life transitions, difficulty in the workplace, addiction, low self-esteem, grief I can help. My goal is to help empower clients to overcome the obstacles they face in life by building on their current strengths. My passion is to is to guide clients to become aware of the self-limiting belief systems that prevent them from living happy, healthy, and balanced lives and to inspire them to make positive changes. My approach is strength-based, forming a collaborative relationship with the client, fostering self-awareness, effective problem solving, and the development of positive coping strategies. My focus when I work with clients struggling with addictions is to assist them to identify the underlying issues that cause them to struggle with addiction and help them to overcome these issues, while acquiring purposeful direction, motivation and the development of independence. I recognize that each person is unique and therefore needs individualized counseling strategies that will provide the best outcome for their own needs. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, CAP and ICADC certified, with broad experience working with individuals, children and families. I have experience working with individuals, children and families with mental health and substance use disorders, helping them overcome stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship difficulties, trauma, self-esteem, adjustment challenges and loss or grief. I’m trilingual and can provide therapy in Portuguese, Spanish, and English.

Do you feel like you want to share your feelings with someone but are scared or ashamed, or feeling like you should be able to "fix" your problems?

I have been a psychotherapist for over 30 years and love to help people become the healthiest and happiest person that they can be. And, I would love to help you explore your issues in a safe and comfortable manner.

Hi, I’m Allison. I approach therapy by looking at the root cause of problems, rather than focusing on one problem at a time. I work from a systemic perspective, which means we will dive into your personal relationships, behavior patterns, and life choices which are interconnected with the issues you may be facing. Whether you've been feeling burned out or been having difficulties in your relationships, together we will find ways to get you to a happier place with better self-care. Many times clients who contact me have no experience in therapy, but just know that their life is not satisfying or something is off. That's enough by the way! Anything and everything can be discussed in therapy. Getting to a place where you are less overwhelmed and more content is an achievable goal, and it can take less time than you think once you get started. I have observed significant shifts in clients I work with, and have seen them become more authentic and empowered. If you'd like to learn more about me and my therapy methods, feel free to visit my website at www.mindtalkhealing.com

Glad you stopped by! I'm Larry Goble, a licensed Clinical Social Worker. Taking the step to talk to a therapist is not easy. You are showing courage and determination to explore what it might be like. In working with folks who are feeling stuck, anxious, maybe sad and confused, I find using a practical and sometimes humorous approach helps to learn and develop specific ways to counter stress, manage thoughts and feelings that can overwhelm you, and to increase self-confidence.

My journey continues to working at a drug rehab facility where I worked with individuals with substance use disorder for about 5 years. My life then continues to work at a survivor's center where I worked with victims of domestic violence, violent crimes and grief for about 2 years. I also gained experience with the LGBTQIA+ population where I worked closely and ran groups with individuals of the trans experience. Moving forward, I have worked with suicidal children and adolescents that have been under a Baker Act which has given me experience in with family systems for about 4 years.
