You’re capable, responsible, and accustomed to holding things together. From the outside, you may appear to be doing well. Internally, you feel anxious, emotionally exhausted, or caught in patterns you understand but still cannot seem to change.
You may be overthinking decisions, carrying too much for other people, struggling in your relationships, or wondering why your insight has not translated into meaningful change.
I’m a licensed therapist with more than 20 years of experience helping professionals recognize and shift the patterns keeping them stuck.

I truly saw the need for more mental health professionals in my community when I lost my father in 2006. Since that day, I began my journey of understanding the mind and how it works. We go through many major life transitions such as breakups, divorce, having children, new professions, loss of income, moving, pandemic stress and more. Most do not realize just how traumatic these seemingly “normal” events are to us at times.
I am here to help you if you feel overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, angry or confused concerning anything that has been thrown at you in your life. If you feel that what you are dealing with is too much to handle on your own, please reach out to me. We cannot stop this cycle of numbing or ignoring mental health issues in our world if we do not start within.
As a mental health advocate, I am here for you. I have seen the impact of a lack of relatable and accessible mental health programs and providers. I am here to be the bridge and get you the solutions, support, and guidance you need.

Life can feel overwhelming, especially when past experiences, anxiety, or self-doubt make it hard to move forward. As a warm and grounding therapist (who isn’t afraid to add a little humor when it helps), I create a space where you don’t have to have everything figured out. You just need to show up as you are. I help adults, teens, couples, BIPOC clients, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and those navigating spiritual or religious trauma reconnect with themselves, find clarity, and build healthier patterns.

I am an LPC who is best positioned to serve children, adolescents, adults, and families who are experiencing emotional, behavioral, and relational challenges, particularly those involved in high-stress systems. I have extensive experience working with trauma-exposed youth, parenting stress, and complex family dynamics, I am well equipped to support clients who may feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, or resistant to traditional therapy approaches. I am especially effective with individuals and families who benefit from structured, skills-based interventions combined with a strengths-focused and practical approach. My clinical style allows me to meet clients where they are, build trust quickly, and provide meaningful support that promotes stability, resilience, and lasting change.

I’m Triana, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who believes that healing begins with feeling seen, heard, and understood. My approach is warm, compassionate, and collaborative, while also being intentional about helping clients understand the deeper patterns influencing their thoughts, emotions, relationships, and behaviors.
I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationship and family concerns, life transitions, and the challenges that can leave us feeling overwhelmed or disconnected. As an MFT, I look beyond the individual and consider the relationships, family dynamics, experiences, and environments that have helped shape who you are today. My goal is to create a space where you can be your authentic self, make sense of your story, and develop healthier ways of moving forward.

What happens during the first therapy session?
What happens during the first therapy session?
Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
