Hi. I'm Jessica. I help spiritually-driven people get unstuck, heal on a deeper level and live more authentic lives. Together, we'll move beyond trendy (and often bypassing) techniques and create lasting, more meaningful changes in your life. My approach is holistic and wellness based which means I understand that all those patterns that may be currently keeping you from stepping into your next best Self/life served a purpose at one point in time - you won't find any judgment here. I customize your care to your specific needs to help you connect with your innate ability to heal. In our sessions, I blend compassion, some humor and a few f-bombs with holding you accountable and calling you in to cultivate the healing you deserve.

I have worked professionally with substance abuse for approximately 5 years and another year and a half with detainees in correctional facilities.

I will provide you with treatment focused on using evidence-based-practices such as Mindfulness Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Based Therapy and Interpersonal Therapy. I will engage you in creating a treatment plan that works for you!

Hi, I'm Heather, pronouns she/they! I'm an LCSW and I have 10+ years of experience providing mental health therapy to individuals, couples, and families. My experience working with people who are neurodivergent has allowed me to help them work through feeling stuck, unheard, and/or trapped within our system of social norms and unrealistic expectations. I identify as queer and have worked with clients in all stages of recognizing their queerness. I also have experience working with those who have experienced trauma whether due to their sexuality, abusive relationships, upbringing, or otherwise. I offer virtual therapy sessions, walk-and-talks (therapy where we meet in public but maintain privacy and get our steps in by walking while we talk), and in-home therapy sessions. I do not have a brick and mortar client location; if you are not meeting me virtually we are meeting in public or in your home. In-home appointments will have an additional fee. The address listed on this profile is the most common place clients tend to want to meet for walk-and-talks; but I am more than open to meeting in other public, yet private, locations.

Hi---Susan here.. I know that finding a therapist you connect with can be a challenge. Most people come to therapy because they are feeling frustrated and/or overwhelmed with anxiety about their life---that it isn't moving along in the way they would like. Developing a feeling of safety and trust is an important step in therapy. Listening attentively, I can help you get clearer about the issues that are bothering you . We can then work together. so that you can make decisions about your life that you feel good about. My current focuses are Life Transitions and Finding Your True Self. Life Transitions refers to any of the many transitions we all go through in life--from going to work or college, marriage, divorce, aging, loss. Soul therapy is an approach where the focus is on you coming back to your true or authentic self where you feel expansive in your life with peace and joy. Each client is unique and I focus on your concerns and desires through compassionate listening and curiosity. Happy to have a 15-minute complementary phone conversation about your situation and see if we are a good fit.
