I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and mindfulness-based coach with over a decade of experience in education and mental health, specializing in supporting moms navigating burnout, emotional overwhelm, identity shifts in motherhood, and grief. I also have clinical experience in end-of-life care, which has deeply shaped my approach to holding space for loss, transition, and the quieter forms of grief that often go unspoken.
In my work, I support moms who look like they’re holding it together on the outside but feel stretched thin, reactive, and emotionally depleted on the inside. Many of my clients are moving through the grief that comes with motherhood itself—the loss of a former identity, unmet expectations, changes in relationships, or the realization that life feels heavier and more complex than they anticipated. Others are carrying more acute grief or life transitions that have shifted their sense of self and safety.
I use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and CBT to help clients build emotional regulation skills, reduce reactivity, and create more space between their thoughts, feelings, and actions. The work is practical and grounded—focused on what to do in the moments when emotions feel too big, and how to reconnect with values even in the middle of chaos.
My style is conversational, down-to-earth, and direct, with a strong emphasis on progress over perfection. I aim to create a space where clients feel understood without judgment and supported without pressure to “fix” everything at once.
At the heart of my work is helping clients make room for both grief and growth—learning how to carry what’s heavy while still building a life that feels meaningful, intentional, and aligned with who they want to be.

My name is Betsy and I am a licensed mental health clinician with over 10 years of experience working with adolescents and adults. Through my training and experience, I have developed a philosophy that simply listening, validating and being non-judgmental is “help.” However, to guide a patient’s growth in mental health treatment, it is important to challenge them in a non-threatening manner but to promote thought is necessary. Additionally, It is sometimes important to be the mirror that clients do not want to look in. Lastly, treatment should be collaborative and educate which means providing psycho-education information, written treatment work, and provide well rounded mental health guidance and support to help patient identify and achieve treatment goals.
During my career in social work I have provided extensive service to individuals and families in
crisis. This attention has supported them through a variety of circumstances and issues such as; domestic violence, substance abuse, homelessness, poverty, mental illness, racial bias, sexual identity and sexual orientation.

I also can bring experience and skills to the agencies that assist them. My skills include the knowledge to complete a through multidimensional/functional assessment, carry a personal client caseload, counseling them in individual, groups and family settings. My advocacy skills are strong and help individuals navigate through complex systems while providing opportunities for resources to enter their lives, as a result of networking with other agencies.
My goal is to support confidence within clients to develop independent living skills, teach advocacy for their own well-being and families and encourage them to utilize community services. These skills are transferable to other professionals in the field by aiding them through supervision and/or training.
I am a self-aware and open-minded human service professional. My love for helping people is supported by decades of experience in various professional clinical roles.

Hey there! I am a very down to earth and person-centered provider. I am understanding, nonjudgemental, and human!

I'm Jalieh (pronounced *dja-leh*) — a trilingual licensed therapist (English, Spanish, Portuguese) with 30+ years of education, training, and practice across clinical, coaching, and community-health work in five countries: Spain, Brazil, Germany, Switzerland, and the United States. My practice is Dynamic Coherence™.
I work with women across the lifespan who are striving to live their cherished principles in daily practice — from healing to flourishing. Clients often arrive at a threshold: a career shift, a season of parenting or empty-nesting, caregiving, perimenopause, grief, identity, a quiet *"here I go again,"* a longing that no longer fits the life they've built. Many are women of faith — Bahá'í, Christian, Buddhist, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, Sikh, and seekers — alongside those exploring their spirituality, values, and principles. Some carry religious trauma; some long to live their cherished faith more fully.
My approach is integrative — humanistic, existential and transpersonal at the foundation, with mindfulness, somatic, trauma-informed, and relational-cultural threads woven in. I draw from the current and unfolding evidence-based science and the wisdom of spiritual heritage in my work, for both are complementary systems of knowledge and practice. I work, like the women I serve, as one still becoming — committed to my own unfolding alongside theirs.
What clients tell me, again and again, is that they leave our work knowing how to pause, that they have a choice, and ways to direct that choice with confidence and meaning — clearer about who they are, what they're about, and the gifts they are striving to embody and contribute to a more unified, loving, just and creative world.
