Hello there! I chose to become a counselor because I saw a gap in services for those from the LGBTIQA+ and neurodivergent communities. As a member of these communities, it was incredibly important to me that they have the same opportunity to receive quality, knowledgeable services as their straight, cisgender, neurotypical peers. As someone with a background in theatre, I enjoy bringing my creativity into session and believe that the arts can be incredibly healing. After receiving my master's from the University of Central Florida in 2020, I started my private practice and have continued to grow since then.

Hello! My name Is Natalie Knight and I am an LCSW who is passionate about utilizing the strength of the therapeutic alliance as a support to enter into an exploration of what is beckoning for our attention at any given moment. I believe once we learn how to meet our emotions that we can clear ourselves of old past traumas or new ones.
Together I begin to assist the client with untangling the knots of beliefs that have held them back from truly knowing the peace and contentment that underlying all of our distrations is what we all so badly long for.
I have been doing this work for the past eight years professionally. I use a person-centered approach in my counseling practice which emphasizes that the client is the best authority for his/her own life and that the answers to his/her questions are inside of them. I serve as a mirror to reflect to the client the inherent wisdom that we uncover during our therapy sessions. I also rely strongly on EMDR as a modality to help client with the root of their trauma. This process has been quite effective for me in my search for understanding and I hope to be able to share it with others who feel called to this type of work with me as well.

Hello! I'm Alesia, a licensed mental health counselor who sees individuals, couples and families. I've recognized many people are suffering in silence. If you're one of them, I want to advocate for you by teaching you how to regulate your emotions, create a more positive mental space and increase your self-esteem in the process.
I became a counselor because I found excitement and fascination in understanding why people do what they do. Adding to my ability to provide that perspective in a clinical setting, I'm fulfilling my goal of positively impacting the world. If you're ready to actively change your mental, emotional, and honestly behavioral state, I'm here to help.
