Hi! My name is Noor. I am warm, real, empathic, perceptive, and wise. I have worked with a diverse array of clients over half a decade, helping them each to find a unique pathway towards healing and wholeness. For each person, this has looked different, whether it's processing deep grief or heartbreak, learning to forgive one's self or another, discovering a core sense of worth (again), unearthing a buried sense of power, learning to say “No”, upgrading to healthy coping mechanisms, healing from traumas (big or small), or evolving out of self-sabotage. We each have our own afflictions and unique "cross to bear." I can help you feel less alone in holding yours. Specifically, I specialize in supporting clients struggling with issues of belonging, worth, grief, forgiveness, heartbreak, relationship & communication challenges, burnout, and more. And, I attune to each client's individual needs and personalize my service to meet you exactly where you are at.

Coping Skills

With the ups and downs of life, there are ways we learn to cope and deal with the good and the bad that life throws at us. Some days are easier than others, and finding peace in the midst of chaos is easier said than done. With each new "adventure" we have opportunities to learn and grow. Life is better when we are thriving, instead of just surviving. My hope is that through counseling we can explore together what makes a difference for you and how you can thrive. It is my goal to help others by walking with them in life as they explore and discover what brings them joy and fulfillment, and supporting them as they reach those goals. Through my experience working with child, adolescents and adults with co-occurring mental health disorders at the outpatient and IOP levels, I have always aimed to assist the individual in reaching for the best versions of themselves. I also have special training in EMDR Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, Emotion Focused Therapy EFT, Gottman Method Relationship Therapy, , and Trust Based Relationship Interventions TBRI . With the availability and convenience of telehealth, therapy is more accessible than ever. Help can be just one phone call away.

Welcome! I'm Cindy. Taking the step to explore therapy is an act of courage and self-care. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just curious about personal growth, therapy can be a space to pause, reflect, and find strategies that actually work for you. Becoming a therapist came naturally. Growing up, I was the friend people turned to for a listening ear and nonjudgmental perspective. I loved helping others sort through their thoughts and feelings, always believing they are the experts of their own lives. That approach guides my work with every client. As a first-generation American born to Caribbean parents, I understand the unique pressures and strengths of the African diaspora. I’m passionate about destigmatizing mental health care, serving historically underserved communities, and helping people tap into their resilience to feel more confident and empowered. In our sessions, we’ll explore challenges like anxiety, depression, life transitions, or self-care struggles and build practical strategies that fit your life. I focus on helping clients set boundaries, communicate assertively, and reclaim a sense of control and purpose. Therapy is a space to reflect, grow, and create the life you want. If you’re ready to take that step, I’m here to walk alongside you.

Greetings beautiful humans! I am ethically non-monogamous (ENM), LGBTQ+, and Autistic/ADHD. I share these identities as they inform and impact my worldview as well as my therapeutic process. I am passionate about working with people that share these identities, because I want you to feel seen, heard, and understood in a way that you might not find in the world on a regular basis.

Hi, I’m Shontell, and I believe that healing starts with connection—with yourself, with your story, and with someone who truly listens. To give more information about myself, I graduated with honors from Florida Atlantic University, obtaining a Master of Education in Counseling with a specialization in Clinical Rehabilitation Counseling. For the past seven years, I’ve worked as an advocate for individuals with disabilities, both mental and physical. My professional knowledge and genuine compassion, allows me to bring both understanding and realism into my therapeutic practices. My approach is grounded in empathy, collaboration, and creating a safe, judgment-free space where you can be your authentic self. Together, we’ll explore what’s beneath the surface—unpacking the pain, confusion, or self-doubt that may be keeping you stuck. I’ll walk alongside you as you work toward healing and growth, offering tools that are both practical and empowering.

I’m a licensed therapist who helps individuals heal from anxious attachment, trauma, and relationship challenges so they can build deeper self-trust and healthier connections. I work with clients who often feel stuck in cycles of people-pleasing, self-doubt, or emotional overwhelm, and I guide them toward self-awareness, confidence, and alignment with their authentic selves. My approach is warm and empowering, and I integrate evidence-based practices like EMDR to help clients process past experiences, set boundaries, and develop a secure sense of self. My goal is to help you break free from patterns that no longer serve you and create a life that feels grounded, balanced, and fulfilling. In our work together, you’ll learn to move from survival mode to self-acceptance, finding clarity and peace as you step into your power.
