Everyday is a series of small revolutions, realizations, adjustments, and changes that expand and contract within our beings. Therapy is a place to release, process, unpack, and unwind. Essentially, it's space to breathe and reconnect. Show yourself kindness and compassion. You do deserve the best life has to offer! Give yourself a breather, a pat on the back, and a smile as you embark upon your day.

Hi, I’m Ambar, a licensed clinical social worker who supports individuals navigating stress, relationship challenges, trauma, and life transitions. My approach is grounded, collaborative, and culturally attuned, blending evidence-based methods with practical tools you can use both inside and outside of session. Clients often come to me feeling overwhelmed, stuck in repeating patterns, or disconnected from themselves or others. Together, we slow things down, build awareness, and explore the emotions and beliefs shaping those experiences. I focus on helping you understand your internal world while strengthening skills for emotional regulation, communication, and resilience. I draw from mindfulness-based techniques, emotionally focused therapy, and insight-oriented approaches to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can feel seen, supported, and challenged in a compassionate way. My goal is to help you gain clarity, interrupt automatic reactions, and move toward more intentional choices and healthier relationships. Whether you’re seeking relief from anxiety, healing from past experiences, or greater confidence in your day-to-day life, I’m here to walk alongside you with empathy, respect, and a commitment to your growth.

Everyone thinks you have it together. You show up for work. You take care of your family. You handle what needs to be done. Yet underneath it all, you’re exhausted. You find yourself overthinking, worrying about everyone else, feeling disconnected from who you used to be, or wondering why life feels so much harder than it should. Maybe you’ve spent so much time being strong for everyone else that you’ve forgotten what you need. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. For over 23 years, I’ve helped adults navigate anxiety, stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, and the overwhelming pressure of trying to hold everything together. My approach is warm, practical, and collaborative. Together, we’ll identify the patterns keeping you stuck, develop effective coping strategies, and help you reconnect with yourself so life feels more manageable and meaningful again. Therapy doesn’t have to be intimidating. Sometimes it begins with one conversation and the decision to stop carrying everything alone.

~I am currently accepting new clients~ My philosophy is that life is a journey and we can be thrown unexpected difficulties and challenges during the ride. Healing doesn't happen because someone else has all the answers. It happens because, over time, we begin to relate to ourselves with greater honesty, compassion, and courage. I work with individuals, couples, and children. I provide an empathetic non-judgmental environment for clients to feel safe and comfortable while working towards their goals. I have worked with clients on many different complicated issues and relational difficulties. My areas of specialty include, anxiety and depression, couples and communicational problems, infidelity, self-esteem issues, compulsive overeating, adolescent behavioral problems, and LGBTQ challenges. I am very passionate about my career and genuinely enjoy helping clients uncover their strengths and resources to reach their goals to live happier and healthier lives. I work with clients of all different ethnic and economic backgrounds.

Hello! I began my social work journey in 2006 and have been working in the mental health field since I obtained my MSW in 2008. As a clinical social worker I have thoroughly enjoyed the privilege of helping individuals identify and address many mental health concerns and move towards the life they most desire. I am passionate about addressing the stigma around addictions and serious mental illness and I believe the best way to begin any mental health journey of recovery is with compassion and understanding. I work from a cognitive-behavioral perspective and I use a strengths-based orientation of empowerment to foster growth and progress. I feel that we are already our best selves-we just need some help letting go of the survival skills we've taken on to get through the toughest times in our lives. I have spent several years working exclusively with homeless veterans and individuals struggling with addiction, and this has given me additional perspective and insight into the needs of some of our most vulnerable populations. I am an advocate, an accountability partner, an empath and your greatest cheerleader. I'm excited to help you rediscover your best self and to claim the life you deserve.

I am a licensed mental health counselor (Florida & Delaware) with over 25 years of experience working with diverse individuals in the community, private practice, and residential substance abuse treatment. Never in a million years did I ever think providing counseling to individuals, couples, families, and groups, would be the career to captivate my heart….but it is! My specialties are working with clients who may be suffering from traumatic incidents, substance abuse, various forms of anxiety (PTSD, stress disorders), depression, self-esteem, and gender identity. Making the decision to receive any form of mental health counseling can be taxing, however, the results are often positive and rewarding. Learning to face your fears in a healthy and appropriate manner is a sign of growth and maturity. It is not an easy task. You will cry, laugh, and maybe feel a little uncomfortable at times. This is just the therapeutic process working to make you emotionally stronger. *Please note that my preference for treatment sessions are individual and group therapy. However, I do provide a limited number of couples or family therapy sessions for special circumstances.

My mission is to inspire others to live their purpose. For over 30 years, I have counseled individuals, couples and families with their relationships. The #1 relationship problem goes beyond communication. It is learning to resolve conflict and becoming stronger through it. It is about accepting differences as different and not wrong. Whether you just want a stronger relationship or you are in a crisis and do not know which way to turn, the only thing holding you back holding right now is probably fear. Ask yourself: What would love do? It is important for us to have conscious relationships so that our children will have a better chance of being successful in their own relationships. Otherwise we will watch them repeat our mistakes. Do it for you; do it for them. My education is in psychology, counseling psychology, spirituality and hundreds if not thousands of hours in continuing education on multiple additional topics.

My name is Michael and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Certified Chemical Dependency Counselor in Georgia, Florida, and South Carolina. As a psychotherapist, my vocation is supporting individuals, working together on your journey toward self-discovery, healing, and learning to thrive from the comfort and convenience of your home or office, and when it is most convenient for you. My work commonly addresses individuals experiencing difficulties in life due to problems stemming from difficulties early in life, anxiety, depression, major life changes, academic challenges (undergrad, graduate, post-graduate studies), the discomfort of feelings that go along with hypervigilance, procrastination, and perfectionism. Sometimes, we need help from someone new, experienced with developing collaborative relationships to find strengths we take for granted, and to embrace that we can be the person we’re meant to be. Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, substance abuse, or major life changes? Let’s talk! I do not prescribe medication, and I do not see clients under the age of 18.

I'll skip the buzz words and get to the point. If you've been holding it together with caffeine, sarcasm, and sheer willpower, you're not alone...and you don't have to keep doing it that way. I'm Dr. Patrick Hanson, DSW, LCSW, and I help children, teens, adults, couples, and families navigate anxiety, burnout, Trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, and the lasting effects of difficult experiences. My approach is genuine, collaborative, and down-to-earth. I believe therapy works best when you can show up exactly as you are, without worrying about saying the "right" thing or pretending everything is okay. Together, we'll explore what's keeping you stuck, build practical coping strategies, and work toward meaningful, lasting change. I strive to create a space where you feel heard, supported, and challenged in a way that promotes growth. Some sessions may include laughter, others may be emotional, but every session is focused on helping you better understand yourself and move toward the life you want to live. Whether you're facing a current struggle or carrying experiences that continue to affect you today, we'll work together at a pace that feels right for you. My goal is for you to leave each session feeling a little more hopeful, a little more empowered, and knowing you don't have to figure it all out alone.

Hello, my name is Les Parker, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Mental Health Service Provider (LPC-MHSP) and National Certified Counselor (NCC). I provide telehealth therapy to clients throughout Tennessee and work with children, adolescents, and adults facing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, relationship challenges, and stress-related concerns. I believe therapy should be a safe, supportive space where you can be yourself without judgment. My approach is collaborative and tailored to your unique needs, helping you better understand your experiences, develop practical coping skills, and create meaningful change in your life. I utilize evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Brainspotting, and Internal Family Systems (IFS). These approaches can help address anxiety, depression, trauma, negative self-beliefs, emotional overwhelm, and patterns that may be keeping you stuck. Many of the clients I work with appear to be functioning well on the outside while struggling internally with worry, self-doubt, emotional pain, or unresolved experiences from the past. Others come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by life’s challenges and wanting a better understanding of themselves and their relationships. My goal is to help clients gain insight, build resilience, improve emotional well-being, and move toward a life that feels more connected to their values and goals. Whether you are facing a specific challenge or simply looking to grow and heal, I am committed to meeting you where you are and supporting you throughout the process. Taking the first step toward therapy can be difficult, but you do not have to navigate life’s challenges alone. I look forward to helping you move toward lasting healing and personal growth.

I have 12 years of clinical experience working with teens, young adults and adults. In addition to working with common mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression, interpersonal challenges, etc., I have broader experience working with children of divorce, trauma, grief and LGBTQAI+ populations. We all have a fundamental need to feel known, cared for and understood and I am honored to have a career in which I can be that person for others. The therapeutic process is hard to explain and better to be experienced. As we feel known, cared for and understood by not only another but with time, ourselves, it’s a special kind of magic that can bring about deep healing and shifts. A little bit about me; I was born and raised in Miami, Florida and have also lived in Boston, Massachusetts and Boulder, Colorado. I am now back home, married and a mother of two wild and wonderful boys. Some things that I love are music, nature, hidden gems, good food, deep talks, movies, a good workout, and adventure!

In therapy, I counsel individuals, families, couples, and children. No matter how trivial an issue may seem, everyone has issues in life. If it is causing you emotional pain, that is a good reason to seek out help. I understand everyone has a different journey in their lives and I would like to assist you in your path to self-discovery and healing. Your issues may be stress, loneliness, sadness, frustration, or concern for a loved one. You are not alone and I am ready to help you explore strategies to help you improve your life. Each session is provided in a warm and compassionate environment. I will ask you some questions so I can understand which issues you want to focus on. Therapy is a process of learning and the rewards are great. You will develop parts of yourself that you did not know existed. This will help you to become a better parent, partner, and best friend to yourself and your loved ones. Are you ready to take that step of self-discovery to become the best version of yourself? I want to guide you in your path to self-discovery, happiness, and peace. I have been counseling clients for over 24 years and I work with all populations. My counseling modalities include Cognitive behavioral therapy, Solution-focused, and Person-Centered therapy. When I counsel children, I use all of these in addition to Play therapy. Many of the therapeutic issues we work together on are Self-esteem, relationships, communication, trauma, PTSD, anxiety, ADHD, Social skills, and grief. I am a licensed therapist and have a Masters Degree in counseling. I have spent many years counseling children, adolescents, and adults. Although therapy may look different with each population, the process is equally meaningful in all sessions.

Ready to break free from overthinking, self-doubt, and burnout? I work with people navigating major life transitions, school or career pressures, low self-esteem, and relationship issues who are ready to break out of exhausting cycles. Together, we’ll move past quick fixes to build lasting emotional resilience, a healthier mindset, and real clarity. My approach combines practical, daily stress-management tools with deeper self-exploration into why and how these patterns started. I use integrative, evidence-based approaches rooted in humanistic values to empower you to make lasting, meaningful change tailored to your specific goals. We won't just focus on surface-level symptoms—we'll uncover the root causes so you can navigate big shifts, learn to genuinely believe in yourself, and break free from old habits, I believe deeply in your innate capacity for growth and change. My goal is to provide a warm, collaborative, and judgment-free space where you feel truly heard and empowered to navigate life independently. If you're ready to invest in yourself and your peace of mind, I’d love to connect and support you on your journey.
