Are life’s ups and downs causing stress? Are you having difficulty navigating the diffcult waters of relationships, family or work? Do you want to learn how to be your own compass? Life can be diffcult. Learning skills and techniques to help manage stressors of life can help. We all carry emotional backpacks that hold the weight of all of our hurts, stressors and other emotional upheavals. If we don’t take thetime to sort though the backpack on a regular basis the pack can become heavy and weigh us down. Mastering Self Recovery can provide you the tool kit needed to sort through the back pack and manage all of what life throws at you. Utilizing  techniques from DBT, CBT, Solution Focused and Internal Family Systems I will work with you on finding what will work for you to become your own Master of Recovery. If it doesn’t challenge you, it doesn’t change you.

I always knew that I wanted to be a helping professional. As part of an assignment, while taking a counseling course designed to assist offenders with substance abuse problems, I had to write in five words or less what I wanted people to remember about me. My words were “helped people live better lives.” I have over 30 years of experience working with clients who live with psychiatric and substance use disorders. I started my "helping" career working for the Georgia Department of Corrections (GDC). After observing the effects of early childhood trauma on many of the offenders that I supervised, I decided to end my 21-year career with GDC and pursue an education in counseling. I have never regretted this decision! For the last 6 years I have provided psychotherapy for individuals and groups. I love doing what I believe I have been called to do and my life's work remains guided by those five simple words in my title. I look forward to helping you learn to live a better life!

I’m Micheal Franklin, and my journey into therapy began in a blue-collar family where my relatives worked in textile mills, battery plants, and furniture factories. Growing up, I aspired to carve a different path, aiming to be the first in my family to earn a college degree. I graduated from Western Piedmont Community College in Drug and Alcohol Technology and earned an Associate in Arts in 1996. I then continued my education at Gardner-Webb University, obtaining my Bachelor’s in Science in Human Services. Recognizing that the job market wouldn’t provide enough financial stability, I joined the Marines in 1998. During my service, I got married and welcomed a baby boy, which motivated me to seek part-time work with troubled adolescents and teens facing addiction issues. After leaving the Marines in 2003, I worked in a group home for adolescents and later became a Prevention Supervisor for adolescent substance use treatment. I also served as the lead treatment therapist for a Men's Intensive Outpatient Program at the Cognitive Connection in Hickory, NC. My passion for helping others led me to teach parenting classes and collaborate with Child Protective Services. I pursued my Master’s degree in Social Work at the University of West Florida while gaining experience in Community Mental Health. I also worked in a drug court program for two years. Since becoming licensed in 2014, I have dedicated my career to supporting clients dealing with trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction, personality disorders, and life transitions.

Hey there! I'm Shirley. We all struggle sometimes. You may need to make a change or a difficult decision. You may feel unsure of how to solve a problem. While family and friends may want to help, they often are unequipped to be truly helpful. Talking with someone unbiased and nonjudgmental can be most helpful when you feel lost or face barriers to achieving your hopes and dreams. I am a compassionate and knowledgeable licensed professional counselor (LPC) in the state of Connecticut. I have 10+ years of diverse experience including trauma, substance abuse treatment, and domestic violence counseling and advocacy. I approach each client with an open mind and an open heart. I believe each person is the “expert” on themselves and it is my job to help them find the tools that will work for them. My journey to counseling has been a long and winding road, going back to school at the age of 50 after a successful culinary career. I graduated top of my class with a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Bridgeport. In addition to a comprehensive education, I bring a wealth of life experience to the therapy room. I have been through marriage, divorce, parenting challenges, personal loss, and so much more. I love helping my clients find their passion and direction. I am humbled to walk with them as they discover their life path. I look forward to working with you as you begin your own journey.

I understand how exhausting it can be to carry that weight alone. As a licensed clinical social worker (Licensed in FL & MN), I create a warm, safe space where you can finally breathe and begin to heal. I work alongside individuals who are ready to gently explore those complicated emotions and thoughts that have been tucked away for so long. Together, we'll honor your experiences while building the coping skills and inner strength you need to not just survive, but truly thrive. Healing isn't about erasing your story - it's about rewriting how that story shapes your future. You deserve compassionate support on this journey. I'd be honored to walk alongside you as you rediscover your resilience and create the life you're meant to live.

I am a licensed professional counselor and board certified dance/movement therapist. My work is informed by humanistic, person-centered, and strengths-based approaches, as well as lenses like solution-focused therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy. I strive to create an open and safe space for clients to be their authentic self, explore emotions, communication and relationships, and find ways to continue growing within the therapeutic relationship. My theoretical framework values the following core principles: communication and relationships, outward emotional expression, and the importance of seeing a client's physical, emotional, and developmental world through their lens. I focus on solution-focused and cognitive-behavioral therapy approaches, but employ additional options as needed, depending on each client's personal journey towards healing.

Welcome! It takes courage to reach out for help and I would be honored to work with you. I have over 25 years of counseling experience and enjoy working with people of varying age groups, backgrounds and cultures. My career started with working with child and adult victims of violence. I utilized play therapy and EMDR techniques to help individuals process and heal from trauma. I transitioned into working with the elderly population, helping the individual and their families work towards accepting their current physical abilities, and at times, processing end of life issues. Currently, I am working with adults to understand and utilize Cognitive Behavioral tools to help develop and accomplish their goals.

Hi, my name is Luz, my pronouns are she/her/hers, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC). I worked as a teacher for over 15 years before making the journey into a community mental health career. I have experience in mobile crisis response, trauma, forensic mental health concerns. To explain who I am as a therapist, I reflect back to my role as an educator. In the classroom, there was a movement for the teacher to be less of a “sage on the stage” (teacher-centered approach) and more of a “guide on the side” (student-centered). To me, therapy is a lesson plan for a learning experience. It's a guide to develop what the client needs to learn in order to cope with whatever barriers are showing up in the client's life, whether that barrier is an internal issue, such as self-image, or how to cope with work stress. My therapeutic perspective is to provide empathetic, non-judgmental, compassionate guidance and support in an atmosphere of respect and safety while allowing clients to be the experts of their lives, much like “a co-pilot, a sous chef, or an assistant manager” of a client-therapist relationship. I use solution-focused elements to help move toward desired goals, cognitive behavioral techniques to challenge unhelpful thoughts, and motivational interviewing to help gain understanding and clarity. Outside of traditional therapy, I enjoy the practices of mindfulness, guided meditation, aromatherapy, and Reiki. Finding a therapist that's the right fit can be a challenging task, but taking that first step towards a healthier you is worth it. I look forward to working with you to help break down those barriers and make progress in areas that most matter to you.
