My name is Dr. Olushola Bakare, and I'm a board-certified Psychotherapist. I attended St Joseph College. I'm happy to help you today with any of your concerns. I enjoy empowering people and digging out their strengths. I don't ask fish to fly, neither do I ask birds to swim. I respect everyone's strengths and help my client recognize them. I love to highlight my client's strengths. I offer a safe, warm, therapeutic, judgment-free space for Adults (18+) and Older Adults (65+). I am sorry, but I do not accept clients who pay in cash. Also, every late cancellation or no-show accrues a late charge fee.
It is my ethical duty to officially terminate our therapeutic relationship when it is reasonably clear that the client is no longer beneficent, services are no longer required, counseling no longer serves the client's needs and interests, or Dr. Olushola Bakare, LMFT limits do not allow the provision of further counseling services.
It is the policy of Dr. Olushola Bakare, LMFT, that our professional relationship will be terminated after a one-month consistent lapse of meeting with a client. Dr. Olushola Bakare, LMFT, will attempt to notify you of this change in status as soon as possible after one month. My ethical duty is identifying, being available, and caring for current clients. It could feel awkward for our relationship to end, yet it is not meant to be discourteous in any way. I do not complete disability forms (Social Security, work excuse, FMLA, Court papers/legal papers, emotional support letters, etc).
NO COUPLE THERAPY OR MEDICATION MANAGEMENT, PLEASE!
Hi, I’m Gretchen Raring-Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW: NJ, FL, AZ & ND; LICSW: MA) with 20+ years of experience helping people face life’s hardest challenges and create meaningful, lasting change.
I work with individuals and couples who are ready for more than just talking-I offer a direct, supportive, and judgment-free space where you can be real about what’s going on and start moving forward.
My background includes mental health, addiction, trauma, veterans’ issues, homelessness, and the criminal justice system. I’ve worked with people in some of the most difficult situations, and I believe real change is possible for anyone willing to take that first step.
Together, we’ll get to the root of what’s holding you back-connecting patterns, emotions, and experiences so things start to make sense. From there, we’ll build practical tools you can actually use in your day-to-day life.
This is a space for honest conversations, real insight, and meaningful change-at a pace that works for you.
I’ve been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 2012, after earning my Master’s in Social Work from Florida State University. I’m licensed in Florida, Arizona, and Massachusetts. Over the years, I’ve worked with people dealing with anxiety, depression, divorce, parenting and co-parenting challenges, military life, and serious illness. I’m passionate about helping my clients navigate tough seasons of life, and I aim to create a supportive, down-to-earth space where you can talk things through, explore your emotions, and figure out practical steps forward. I take a collaborative approach and always tailor our work to what feels most helpful for you.
Here is a brief video introduction. (You may need to copy and paste the link to open) ....................... https://youtu.be/YQ3-N6EXH-Y .......................................
I have been licensed for over 10 years as a LMHC and Qualified Supervisor for MFT. I have actively worked with hard cases that require a very structured approach to counseling to improve conflict management, behavior change, and better emotional attunement. I look forward to working with you!
MORNING AVAILABILITY BY REQUEST, CONTACT DIRECTLY FOR SCHEDULING
Holding space is the practice of providing a safe and supportive environment for someone to express their thoughts, emotions, and experiences without judgment or interruption. It involves being fully present and attentive, allowing the other person to explore their feelings and navigate their own process. My 20 years of experience have allowed for a diverse background of traditions and practices that clients can implement in their personal journey. I value transparency in the therapist/client relationship.
I believe healing begins by creating a safe and sacred space where individuals can fully reconnect with their authentic selves. I have nearly a decade of clinical experience and specialize in helping clients heal attachment wounds, navigate complex emotions, and reclaim their inner strength after trauma, grief, or significant life transitions. My therapeutic approach blends depth-oriented psychotherapy, trauma-informed care, and mind-body awareness, recognizing that true healing must involve both the emotional and the unconscious layers of experience.
My style is warm but direct, and I strive to offer my clients a steady hand as they learn to navigate their inner world with greater self-trust, self-compassion, and emotional resilience. I work especially well with clients who feel “stuck” between who they once were and who they are becoming — offering the insight, patience, and guidance needed for profound transformation.
Do you feel at times your distressing emotions are a non-stop express train in that it seems impossible to stop the train? Are there times you feel overwhelmed by your negative thoughts? Is it a challenge for you to manage your emotions? As an LMHC, I help individuals develop healthy ways to cope with stress, regulate their emotions, and learn to identify/change unhelpful thought patterns that negatively influence their behavior and emotions.
Hi there. I’m Danica.
Have you struggled to trust others throughout your life because something always seems to go wrong in relationships, leaving you feeling hurt, betrayed, or psychologically/emotionally drained? Is it hard to see your way to stable happiness without feeling like the other shoe will drop?
I help individuals navigate and repair the aftermath of just about any sort of traumatic event you can imagine. My approach is eclectic and tailored to your needs. I use EMDR, Brainspotting, and mindfulness strategies to help you soothe your anxiety, improve depression, and neutralize the overwhelming emotions associated with trauma.
Feeling fearful of relationships, lonely, anxious and depressed while others seem to be living their lives with little effort can be disheartening. Together we can improve your outlook, improve your mood, and strengthen your relationships with others so you feel supported, loved, and ultimately peaceful inside.
I am excited to work with you to achieve your best self!
I'm a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and I hold a license in Massachusetts and Texas. I received my Master's degree at Wheelock College and have almost 10 years experience working with individuals and families. I have also worked with government agencies (DCF, DMH, VA) as well as local agencies who are focused on treating individuals with mental health symptoms.
I am a licensed clinical social worker in FL, Idaho, Virginia; licensed independent clinical social worker in Massachusetts, Minnesota, and Rhode Island.
I graduated from Barry University in 2014 and have been working within the mental health and hospital field since.
I enjoy helping others overcome the challenges life throws at them. With the right mindset, support and environment, I believe change is possible.
I provide psychotherapy services to individuals in a collaborative, supportive, and safe environment.
Hi! I’m Ashley. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I have experience working with a diverse range of individuals, from children to adults, with various needs both behavioral and psychological. I have experience working in correctional settings as well as with personality disorders, behavioral management and healthy relationships. My focus has been improving quality of life on all planes and increasing positive daily living. My goal is to hold a space that is uniquely supportive for each individual client I work with.
I provide an all-gender affirming, warm and non-judgemental approach that blends components of CBT, ACT, and narrative therapies to help you reconnect with your values, heal from the past, and create more peace in everyday life.
I aim to bring a healthy balance of optimism and realism into each session. I’m especially passionate about supporting clients who are navigating gender identity, healing from religious trauma, or facing neurodivergence-centered challenges in relationships.
I see therapy as a partnership where we create space for both reflection and action. Together, we’ll uncover what’s holding you back, develop practical tools for change, and work toward a life that feels more aligned and authentic.
If your mind feels constantly “on,” you get stuck in task paralysis, or you swing between overwhelmed and shutdown, it can make everyday life feel really hard to manage. I can help you move through feeling overwhelmed, reduce mental noise, and create simple, practical structure so life feels more doable and less exhausting.
I work with individuals who are struggling with anxiety, attention and focus challenges, trauma, and persistent emotional patterns. My approach is down-to-earth and collaborative, focused on giving you tools that match how your mind works so you can feel more grounded, focused, and in control.

Reaching out for help in the form of therapy is not an easy thing to do as many can attest, but by reading this biography, you are taking the first step in getting help for yourself or a loved one. At times, life offers many struggles and obstacles that can be difficult to overcome alone. Engaging in therapy will provide opportunities to explore and process the thoughts and feelings that prevent you from living your best life. Though the thought of therapy may be intimidating and even nerve-wrecking for some, I believe once a person finds the right therapist, they find a trusting confidant who seeks to understand and problem solve.

My name is Ryan, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I graduated with my MS in Clinical Mental Health Care at Bay Path University in 2018. I have worked in an outpatient setting, as a therapist, since the fall of 2018. Prior to completing my program, I gained valuable experience through Crisis services as a clinician and support counselor. I have worked with people of all ages and from a variety of backgrounds.
My therapeutic approach is eclectic with attention to client centered, a more holistic approach which encompasses the entire body as we tend to suffer as a whole being. I want to work with those to reintegrate those parts. People often do not realize the power of our thoughts and how it can negatively impact our overall wellbeing. I often tell people that our brain is a powerful tool. We are built to survive rather than thrive- this is a primordial skill that has not left us, but we have more effective tools.
It is important to me to provide a safe, non-judgmental, and comfortable space to talk about uncomfortable life situations. I do well within the neurodivergent community, and have aided in navigating difficult milestones in their lives.
I’m a Certified Anxiety Specialist and LCSW who helps people break free from anxiety, stress, and self-doubt. I don’t just listen, I teach practical skills while working alongside you. My approach is hands-on and collaborative, meaning we work together in each session to understand your challenges, identify patterns, and practice strategies that actually make a difference in your daily life.
Anxiety, stress, and self-esteem struggles can feel overwhelming, exhausting, or even isolating. I know how hard it can be when worry or self-doubt takes over, and I’m here to help you regain a sense of control. Whether you want to feel calmer, more confident, or simply able to handle life’s challenges without being held back, I guide you in building practical tools that are tailored to your unique experiences.
I draw from a variety of approaches to meet your needs, including mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral techniques, and strengths-based strategies. This means we can explore what works best for you, rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all method. I also include psychoeducation so you understand what’s happening in your mind and body, which helps make the skills we practice more effective.
My goal is not just to help you cope, but to empower you to thrive. Therapy with me is an active, engaging process; we talk, reflect, practice, and experiment together. I help clients identify strengths, recognize patterns, and create lasting changes in how they think, feel, and act.
If you’re ready to take steps toward feeling more confident, calmer, and capable, I’ll be here every step of the way, providing support, guidance, and practical tools to help you succeed.

Art Therapy is to heal with art. A picture is worth a thousand words. In my 30 years experience as an Art Therapist iI have witnessed people heal with their art expressions. Art has a way of getting to the heart of the matter very quickly to foster self discovery, growth and healing. You do not need to be an artist to do art therapy. It's about the process not the product. It is creative and fun.
