Hi I'm Abby! I'm a mental health professional with five years of experience working in a variety of settings, including community mental health and integrated primary care. My goal is to bring a compassionate, strengths-based approach to each therapy session. I utilize evidence-based practices, including Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to support clients navigating trauma, life transitions, anxiety, and other emotional challenges. I aim to create a safe space where clients feel empowered to explore their experiences and move toward meaningful change.

Do you feel anxious, overwhelmed, or emotionally exhausted? Are you struggling with depression, carrying the weight of past trauma, or wondering if you’ll ever feel like yourself again? If you’ve spent years people-pleasing, doubting yourself, or wondering whether you’re “good enough,” you don’t have to face it alone. I specialize in helping adults heal from anxiety, depression, and trauma. As an EMDR-trained therapist, I use evidence-based approaches to help you move beyond simply managing symptoms and begin healing the experiences that continue to impact your life today. Together, we’ll explore what’s underneath the anxiety, guilt, sadness, or emotional heaviness you’ve been carrying so you can reconnect with yourself and move forward with confidence. My goal is to help you rediscover your worth, set healthy boundaries without guilt, and create a life that feels authentic and meaningful. With over 14 years of experience, including extensive work with survivors of trauma, I bring compassion, honesty, and authenticity into every session. You are the expert on your own life, and my role is to provide a safe, supportive space where healing can happen and where you can begin believing that you are enough, just as you are.

Stay focused, know your "Why?" And fulfill your purpose. Anxiety, PTSD, and depression are some of the leading reasons people seek therapy. Anxiety, PTSD, and depression can keep people from being able to reach their best potential because they focus on what could go wrong instead of what could go right. Life experiences and circumstances inform anxiety experiences. It is so important to have healthy coping skills to deal with anxiety, PTSD, and depression, so you are not overwhelmed. I would love to help you learn healthy coping skills to effectively get through struggles you may be going through. Your "someday I will work on reducing my anxiety" can start today by booking your first therapy appointment to gain healthy coping skills. I work with adults through individual therapy seeking support for everyday challenges such as stress, work-life balance, parenting challenges, relationship concerns, ADHD, emotional regulation. depression, anxiety, PTSD, career goal setting, communication skills, or life transitions to name a few. My approach is solution-focused and action oriented, to help you gain strategies you can begin using right away. I also accept Amazon EAP clients. For clients who value Christian faith as part of their journey, I also offer the option to incorporate prayer and biblical wisdom into our work together. Sessions will take place ONLY on the Grow Therapy portal. If you are experiencing a mental health emergency call 911 or go to your nearest ER. Severe and/or frequently severe mental health needs are best served in an in person mental health therapeutic setting.

Hi there! I’m SaMika. Many people see therapy as a one-sided conversation in which the “expert” talks to you and tells you what to do. What is the joy in that? I find joy in working with other experts to create solutions to great change- and guess what? You are the expert on YOU. I believe one of the bravest things someone can do is work to understand their own story. Whether it is healing from the past, managing the present or preparing for the future; with a collaborative, holistic approach, I want to help you achieve whatever life changes you desire to live the life you feel you deserve. Seeking a therapist can be a bit intimidating, but you have already taken the first step! I hope you will take a moment, reach out and see how I can help. Let’s work together!
