Hi, I'm Kiera, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges with compassion, honesty, and practical support. Throughout my career, I have worked in crisis intervention, inpatient behavioral health, residential, addiction treatment, and outpatient therapy, supporting individuals and families facing anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use concerns, life transitions, and emotional distress. I believe therapy should be a collaborative and judgment-free space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences openly. My approach combines empathy, accountability, and evidence-based techniques to help clients gain insight, build resilience, and develop healthier coping strategies. Whether you're experiencing a difficult season of life or seeking personal growth, I am committed to helping you move toward meaningful and lasting change.

You’ve spent so much of your life showing up for everyone else that somewhere along the way, you may have stopped checking in with yourself. On the outside, you might appear strong, capable, and high-functioning, but internally feel overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally exhausted, or stuck trying to hold everything together. Whether you’re navigating relationship stress, family expectations, burnout, anxiety, life transitions, or simply trying to rediscover who you are beyond survival mode, therapy can be a space where you no longer have to carry it all alone.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Certified Life Coach and I've been in practice for 17 years. Seeking therapy takes courage and personal growth begins when one is willing to take the first step towards change. Do you avoid conflict with others? Do you struggle to set boundaries with others? Do you experience manipulation and gaslighting in your relationships and wonder what is going on? It's not you. I assist clients who are healing from narcissistic abuse within intimate relationships and/or with family of origin. I partner with clients experiencing stress in relationships due to betrayal, infidelity, codependency, boundary issues and manipulation. I also work with clients in recovery from substance abuse and clients struggling to manage anger, anxiety, depression, work stress and life transitions. I meet clients where they are on their journeys and partner with them to solve their problems and move forward. If you're here, you've already taken the first step.

With over 12 years of experience in crisis services, I bring a calm, grounded, and compassionate presence to my private practice. I am deeply committed to working with individuals who are choosing therapy as an intentional step towards healing, growth, and emotional wellness. I believe mental wellness—like physical health—exists on a continuum and looks different for every person. Life’s challenges can create emotional peaks and valleys, and therapy offers a supportive space to develop the insight, skills, and resilience needed to navigate them more effectively. My role is to partner with you in the therapeutic process, helping you strengthen self-regulation, build emotional awareness, and reduce the likelihood of future crises. My clinical approach is collaborative and tailored to each client. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Psychodynamic Therapy, integrating mindfulness-based practices to support self-reflection, emotional balance, and long-term fulfillment. Together, we work to identify patterns, build practical coping strategies, and cultivate meaningful, sustainable change. In addition to individual therapy, I am committed to education, training, and family support as tools to reduce stigma and increase access to mental health care. Seeking support is a strength, and you do not have to navigate life’s challenges alone. If you are ready to invest in your mental wellness and begin a thoughtful, supportive therapeutic journey, I invite you to schedule an appointment.

Together, we’ll create a supportive space to explore your challenges and work toward the goals that matter most to you.

Licensed Psychotherapist | Culturally Sensitive | Trauma-Informed Welcome, I’m Nubia. Healing doesn’t happen overnight — but with the right support, it absolutely happens. Whether you're working through trauma, betrayal, anxiety, divorce, or simply feeling emotionally stuck, I’m here to help you move forward with clarity, strength, and care. I work with adults navigating life transitions, stress, or emotional wounds that have been hard to process alone. Many of my clients come to me feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, or unsure of how to break free from patterns that no longer serve them. Together, we explore the deeper “why” behind those patterns — and create space for healing, resilience, and growth. My approach is grounded in evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). These methods help us understand how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are connected — and how to gently shift the beliefs that keep you feeling stuck. But beyond technique, I lead with authenticity, compassion, and cultural awareness. In our sessions, you’ll find a space that feels safe, honest, and judgment-free. Whether this is your first time in therapy or you’re returning to it, you are welcome exactly as you are. Clients often tell me they feel more centered, more empowered, and more hopeful after working together. I offer flexible scheduling, including evenings and virtual sessions, because healing should fit into real life. If you’re ready to begin your journey — whether you’re clear on your goals or still figuring them out — I’d be honored to support you. Let’s take the first step, together.

My own life journey has deeply influenced the way I show up as a therapist. Having personally navigated challenges with self-esteem, depression, and the pain of divorce, I understand firsthand how difficult it can be to rebuild when life doesn’t go as planned. These experiences have given me a deep sense of empathy and a genuine desire to walk alongside others as they work through their own struggles. In my practice, I provide a safe, compassionate space where clients can process their emotions, rediscover their strengths, and learn practical tools for healing and growth. I often draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and, when appropriate, Christian counseling principles to help individuals and couples find hope, balance, and renewed purpose. My goal is to help clients see that—even in life’s most difficult seasons—healing and transformation are possible.

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.

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.

Welcome! I'm Tobi! I am a Licensed Marriage & Family therapist who works with individuals, couples, and families. I want to first applaud you for taking the leap to get support for your next chapter! You've made the leap in deciding on therapy, now let's keep the momentum with finding a therapist that is right for you, right now! I especially work with clients to explore recurring challenges related to anxiety, PTSD, depression, and/or self-care. I focus on helping clients identify maladaptive patterns, develop assertive communication & boundaries with themselves and those around them that can help improve their quality of life. I strive to personalize and facilitate systematic, strategic, and effective support plans for individuals to achieve what they believe (or don't believe is possible) after a series of setbacks or interpersonal challenges. I am a goal-oriented clinician who comes alongside my clients to discover or re-discover the self that may have gotten muddled along the way. When feeling overwhelmed by life’s demands, unexpected transitions, and low energy to overcome mental health challenges or setbacks, I fervently adopt the coach and modeling posture that will help you to learn and use adaptive mental health tools that will promote renewal, clarity, and rhythmic motivation to take control of your whole health and wellness journey.

I'm Gem Coleman, a Licensed Professional Counselor. My practice and professional journey of over 15 years is rooted in the belief that rest is a birthright and ease is something every person deserves, not something they have to earn. My path to this work was not a straight line. It was shaped by lived experience, personal healing, and a deep calling to create the kind of therapeutic space I once needed myself. I understand what it means to appear capable and composed on the outside while quietly carrying more than anyone around you knows. That understanding is not just clinical for me ,it is personal, and it informs every room I create for my clients. I am relational, warm, and direct. I believe in going beneath the surface , not to excavate pain for its own sake, but because real healing lives in the places we haven't yet had the courage or the safety to explore. I draw on a range of evidence-informed approaches, including CBT, ACT, EFT, and somatic therapy, always tailoring my work to the whole person in front of me. My Caribbean roots, my faith, and my commitment to equity shape both who I am and how I practice. I am especially passionate about serving communities where the stigma around mental health has too often stood between people and the support they deserve. If you've been waiting for a sign that it's finally your turn ,this is it.

Hi, I’m Farah Southwell, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in McDonough, GA.  I received my Bachelor's & Master's of Science from Barry University in Miami, FL.  I served  multicultural individuals and families in various community & private settings.  I am fluent in Creole and familiar with French.  Taking the first step toward therapy can feel both empowering and scary, and I'm glad you're here. I specialize in helping adolescents, adults and families navigate depression, anxiety, family conflict, and major life transitions. In our sessions, you can expect a warm, non-judgmental, and collaborative space. My approach relies on a blend of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Brief Treatment (SFBT) and Family Therapy, helping you identify negative thought patterns while developing healthy, lasting boundaries.  I will teach conflict resolution, problem solving and communication skills.  I became a therapist because I am deeply passionate about watching individuals reclaim their confidence and find peace in their daily lives.  I believe that families can interact and work together in a functional way.  In my other life, I enjoy watching Mystery, Thriller, Horror and Crime-Drama movies and spending time with my family.  If you're ready to start this journey, please reach out via GrowTherapy.com to schedule an appointment.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who provides boutique-style therapy for professional women who are ready for real change. I work well with high-functioning women who may appear strong and capable on the outside, but internally feel overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally exhausted, disconnected, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. My approach is supportive, honest, structured, and intentional. Therapy with me is not passive venting only. I help clients identify what is keeping them stuck, strengthen emotional awareness, improve boundaries, reduce overthinking, and create practical shifts that support lasting growth. Clients often come to me when they are ready to stop simply coping and begin moving with more clarity, confidence, emotional balance, and purpose. My work is grounded in evidence-based approaches and guided by compassion, accountability, collaboration, and respect.

Starting therapy can feel vulnerable — sometimes even scary — but choosing to begin is already a powerful act of courage. I’m honored you’re here. My name is Oronde Yero, and I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor. I work with people navigating anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma — experiences that can feel overwhelming, isolating, or hard to put into words. My goal is to create a space where you don’t have to pretend, perform, or carry everything alone — a space where you feel safe, genuinely heard, and gradually empowered to understand yourself and move toward healing at your own pace.

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

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.
