Hi, I’m Marissa, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over ten years of experience supporting individuals as they work toward balance, clarity, and confidence in their lives. I believe therapy should feel safe, genuine, and judgment-free a space where you can show up as you are and feel truly heard. My approach is collaborative and personalized. Together, we’ll explore what’s working, what feels stuck, and what changes will help you move forward in a way that feels aligned with your goals. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or self-esteem concerns, I’ll support you in building insight, resilience, and a stronger sense of purpose. Clients often share that sessions feel natural and comfortable like talking with someone who truly understands. That sense of connection is where meaningful growth begins and serves as the foundation for our work together. Your next chapter starts here one step, one session, one insight at a time. I value consistency in therapy, especially early on, as it helps build a strong foundation for meaningful progress. I typically recommend starting with weekly sessions for the first 6–8 weeks, and then we can reassess whether biweekly sessions are appropriate based on your needs and goals.

I’m Karolina, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who works with mothers and perinatal women: women moving through pregnancy, postpartum, and the long, often quiet becoming of motherhood. Many of the women I work with are capable, high-achieving, and used to holding everything together. From the outside they look fine. Inside, they may be anxious, depleted, disconnected from their bodies, or grieving a version of themselves they can’t quite name. If that sounds familiar, you’re not failing. You’re at a threshold, and you don’t have to cross it alone. I support women with perinatal anxiety and depression, birth trauma, body image concerns, grief and loss, and the identity shifts of matrescence. My approach is warm, collaborative, and evidence-based, and I bring in somatic and nervous-system-informed practices like breathwork, mindfulness, and gentle body awareness to help you feel more regulated and at home in yourself. My background also includes a master’s in Sport and Exercise Science and training as a yoga instructor and health coach, so I pay attention to the whole person: mind, body, and the life you’re actually living. This is a space where you can set down the performance and simply be held.

There is a lot of pressure to appear successful in the modern era. The highlight reels of social media can make you feel like you are falling behind, and, even when you achieve external markers of success, you can feel empty and disconnected. The unique challenges of our current times calls for unique support. If you are someone who is struggling with anxiety, perfectionism, comparison, or transitions, I can help. I specialize in supporting clients who are: dealing with perfectionism, experiencing anxiety, combatting burnout, looking for College and/or Career Guidance, navigating transitions, and looking for support to manage ADHD symptoms. As a former teacher and school counselor, I learned how to help students and parents navigate post-high school transitions, including assisting with college applications.

Hello! I’m a Florida-based Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a Master’s degree from Nova Southeastern University. I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals, couples, families, and groups across outpatient, inpatient, residential, and school-based settings. These experiences have taught me that no two people or stories are alike. My goal is to provide a warm, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and comfortable being yourself as you navigate stress, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. I see therapy as a partnership built on trust, genuine connection, and empathy. I use an integrative, evidence-based approach to tailor the experience to your unique needs, while meeting you where you are and working together to understand what matters most to you.

You may be the person everyone depends on, the one who keeps things moving, shows up for others, and carries more than most people realize. But underneath that, you may be feeling anxious, depressed, overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of what you need for yourself. I work with teens and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, family conflict, relationship concerns, identity, and major life transitions.

I believe YOU are the expert on your own life, and in our work together, I’ll provide a supportive, non-judgmental space to help you tap into your inner strength and build a toolkit for lasting change.

My approach is warm and nonjudgmental. There’s nothing that can’t be talked about together. I truly care for every one of my clients and I feel honored to be invited to be part of something so meaningful and life enhancing. I’ve experienced my own struggles with mental health and trauma and I’ve learned a lot: about how it feels, what has been helpful and that feeling content with yourself, your relationships and your life really is possible. Anxiety and OCD can be managed, traumas can be processed and healed, challenging and loving relationships can be strengthened. I specialize in OCD, anxiety, life transitions, trauma, parenting challenges and other relationship challenges. My goal with every client is to walk with them into being more fully themselves, like wading through the muck of difficult histories, seemingly impossible anxieties and fears and minds that learned long ago to sabotage rather than enable. And so we shake the muck off, even as we feel it’s almost swallowed us, by looking at it, taking it apart, recognizing patterns and learning new habits.

I am a licensed psychotherapist who works with individuals, adolescents, families, and couples treating a broad range of mental health issues including anxiety, depression, trauma, identity and relationship concerns. I integrate elements of evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy, as well as psychodynamic and mindfulness techniques to help you gain awareness and autonomy over your day to day functioning.

I have provided counseling & therapy to children, adolescents, and adults in various settings including schools, group homes, residential treatment facilities, in-office, in-home and virtually. I earned my B.A. in Psychology from The College of Wooster in 2001. In 2003, after working for 2 years at a non-profit in Washington, DC, I joined the staff of HB Woodlawn Secondary Program, in Arlington, VA, as a counseling assistant and college counselor for students in 6th – 12th grade. In 2006, I moved to Philadelphia, PA, and earned my M.A. in Counseling Psychology & School Counseling from Rosemont College in 2009. During my two practicum experiences, I worked primarily with children and adolescents with a variety of behavioral and mental health issues. I was a guidance counselor at Jack M. Barrack Hebrew Academy, where I provided counseling for students struggling with depression, anxiety, and school or family issues. I was also a therapist at St. Francis St. Joseph Homes for Children, where I provided group, family and individual counseling for homeless or displaced boys who often needed support for trauma and grief. Since 2009, I have provided therapy in both a Residential Treatment Facility (RTF) in Portsmouth, VA, and as an independent counselor providing in-office and in-home services in San Antonio, TX and Gambrills, MD. At the RTF, I was a co-leader of the Young Women’s Center, which specialized in intensive care for girls aged 12-18 who required treatment for mood disorders, depression, trauma, anxiety & PTSD. Independently, I've worked virtually with children, adults, blended families, as well as military families & veterans.

I am an empathetic, nonjudgmental, conscientious, and motivated Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I prioritize my client's mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being utilizing holistic interventions, Person-Centered, and CBT techniques. Through these experiences I have developed a deepening commitment to supporting and empowering individuals to improve their overall well-being. I want my clients to feel more grounded and confident in their ability to manage stressors and regulate their emotions consistently and effectively. I began working in mental health as an intern in 2022. I have worked with a variety of diagnosis, ages, and functioning levels in group and individual therapy settings. I love connecting with people and believe the therapeutic relationship is essential to continuous progress in therapy. I personally continue to find more inner peace through traveling, yoga, journaling, reading, relaxing with my cat, and spending time on the beach.

Howdy! I'm Devin - a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has spent ten plus years specializing in OCD, anxiety, PTSD/trauma, and depression. I'm passionate about genuine, human connection. I tend to be more informal and conversational in my practice, so no need for any first session jitters (though they're normal!!) All are welcome! I look forward to getting to know you so that we can figure out how to get you to wherever you want to be in life. Take care and talk soon.

Being the one who holds everything together can be exhausting, especially when your own needs go unnoticed. Perhaps you hold yourself to impossible standards, constantly questioning whether you've done enough. Maybe you're easily irritated, quick to anger, or carrying resentment you don't fully understand. You might avoid conflict, struggle to say no, or feel responsible for keeping everyone else happy. Or perhaps your struggles are quieter, showing up as harsh self-criticism, shame, or a persistent feeling that you're somehow not good enough. My practice focuses on supporting women navigating these experiences and the emotional exhaustion, relationship difficulties, and disconnection from self that may accompany them. Sometimes, understanding how we feel today involves exploring the experiences and relationships that have shaped us. Difficult childhood experiences, emotional neglect, abuse, painful relationships, and ongoing stress can influence how we view ourselves, manage emotions, and connect with others. Through a compassionate, collaborative, and nonjudgmental approach, we can explore the patterns that may be contributing to your struggles while developing healthier ways of responding to life's challenges. Together, we can work toward strengthening emotional awareness, establishing boundaries, building self-trust, and cultivating a more compassionate relationship with yourself. You deserve more than simply getting through each day. Therapy can be a space to begin moving beyond survival toward a life where you feel more grounded, connected, and able to thrive.

Whether you're looking to better understand yourself, develop healthier coping skills, or simply need someone to talk things through with, I'm here to support you every step of the way.
