I’m Steven, a Licensed Professional Counselor for 7+ years. I specialize in helping in clients navigate through relationship stress, life adjustments, divorce, social anxiety, and overall anxiety management. To do this, i use a combination of Person-Centered therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Solution Focused therapy to help clients try to build momentum towards reaching their goals and managing their everyday life and relationships in a more effective way.
My greatest strength as a therapist is to be able to provide Professional Counseling using everyday/real world language and interactions and allowing clients to have an experience talking to "down to earth professional" . I strive to make a client feel heard and validated as a person while helping them take steps in reaching their identified goals.
I also try to emphasize flexibility by offering no cancellations fees and 6-7 days of availability on normal weeks is important as I realize it can be hard for some clients to commit to a specifically weekly commitment.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I have served a variety of populations with a passion for supporting law enforcement, first responders, military, medical professionals and their families. I have over 20 years of experience in service to adults and adolescents to improve their quality of life. The last 11 years were focused in supporting law enforcement, corrections, and other first responders.

Hello! I am Alana and I am a licensed master social worker. I have been working for the past 7+ years in multiple different settings. Currently I work in a school as a school social worker with children ages 3-12. I have also worked in a community mental health that I served multiple populations and worked in the foster care system with families and children. I look forward to working with more people and assisting them with their goals.
I am a mental health professional who integrates evidence based practices with a Christ Like worldview to support healing, growth, restoration and transformation. True wellness and stability includes all aspects of the person that includes the mind, body, and spirit, and I strive to create a safe, grace-filled space where clients feel seen, heard, and valued. I value providing services to help individuals navigate the challenging journey of life and offer a non judgemental space where clients can be open, vulnerable and honest about any challenges that they may be facing.
As a behaviorist, I believe that the environments in which we develop ultimately play the most significant role in our actions, decisions, and outcomes. Without the proper space for growth, healing, and self-development, one may face difficulties in achieving self-realization and self-actualization. Human-beings are social creatures – genetically designed, behaviorally conditioned, and evolutionarily driven. We possess certain intrinsic, natural needs and adaptations that have developed over millions of years. If these dualistically basic and complex needs remain unfulfilled, we will struggle to attain this self-actualization.
Hello, I am Haley Darr. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 22 years of experience helping individuals and couples navigate complex emotions, relationship patters, and major life transitions. My approach is warm, practical, and grounded in evidence-based therapies. I work collaboratively with clients to help them gain clarity, strengthen relationships and move toward steady, lasting change. Clients feel seen, understood and guided rather than judged or lectured. I guide clients toward healthier connections with others.
Hello! I began my social work journey in 2006 and have been working in the mental health field since I obtained my MSW in 2008. As a clinical social worker I have thoroughly enjoyed the privilege of helping individuals identify and address many mental health concerns and move towards the life they most desire. I am passionate about addressing the stigma around addictions and serious mental illness and I believe the best way to begin any mental health journey of recovery is with compassion and understanding. I work from a cognitive-behavioral perspective and I use a strengths-based orientation of empowerment to foster growth and progress. I feel that we are already our best selves-we just need some help letting go of the survival skills we've taken on to get through the toughest times in our lives. I have spent several years working exclusively with homeless veterans and individuals struggling with addiction, and this has given me additional perspective and insight into the needs of some of our most vulnerable populations. I am an advocate, an accountability partner, an empath and your greatest cheerleader. I'm excited to help you rediscover your best self and to claim the life you deserve.
Hello, I'm a licensed Professional Counselor based in Michigan. I have 21 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with depression, stress, worry, anxiety, addiction, trauma, low motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!
I am a Clinical Psychologist with several years of experience in helping clients set and meet goals to make important changes in their lives. Reaching out for help shows strength and resilience, and my goal is to work with you as a partner in your healing to make sure those qualities help you move forward. Whether you are struggling with making sense of the past, worries about the future, or feeling settled in your current life, I will work with you to set concrete goals, identify barriers, and create meaning and purpose in your life. I have worked in a variety of settings, and can help you learn skills to process challenging life experiences, identify and change negative thinking, and manage intense emotions.
I have more than three decades of personal and school counseling experience to share with my clients. I have worked in both private and Catholic schools. I have been a private therapist for eight years. I am also the proud mother of four adult sons. My life story includes some personal and professional obstacles, and I draw on these experiences to help my clients.
I am especially empathetic to clients with physical challenges, as I cope with a partial hearing loss. This helps me serve clients with physical disabilities in addition to a wide variety of mental health challenges.
I am privileged to serve anyone, but I have found my skills are particularly effective with children, teens, college students, and young adults who are navigating transitions, confidence, motivation or emotional challenges. I humbly believe my compassion and empathy are particularly helpful to this age group.
I became a therapist because I believe people are worth fighting for — including the parts of themselves they've written off, hidden away, or learned to manage instead of heal. That conviction drives everything I do.
I work with women, teen girls, and couples, and I've spent over seven years walking alongside people in some of the hardest seasons of their lives. What I've learned is that the struggles that bring people to therapy rarely start where they think they do. So we go deeper — not to dredge up the past for its own sake, but because real, lasting change usually requires understanding what's actually driving things.
I use Internal Family Systems (IFS) as the foundation of my work. In plain terms, that means I'm not here to fix you or diagnose what's wrong with you. I'm here to help you understand yourself — all of yourself, including the parts that feel difficult or contradictory — with a lot more compassion and a lot less judgment.
My faith is part of who I am, and it shapes how I see every person I work with: as someone with real worth, real capacity for change, and a story that isn't over. How much that shows up in our sessions is entirely up to you. Some clients want faith woven throughout. Others just want to know their whole self is welcome. Either way, you're in the right place.
I'm currently offering telehealth sessions in Indiana and Michigan.
I’ve been in this line of work for over 14 years and I know it is what I was meant to do. I take a warm, supportive yet direct approach to therapy. You’re hear to really dig in and discover why you are experiencing life the way you are at the moment, so we get right to it. I create an atmosphere of acceptance that helps you to talk about hard things, but equips you with practical tools to “do the hard things” as well. You will get homework assignments that help to push you further toward your therapy goals and increase your confidence.
Hello, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LMSW-C) based in Michigan. I earned my Master's degree in Social Work and have been practicing for 10 years. I help individuals struggling with mental health issues by providing a safe, empathetic, and non-judgmental space where they can express their feelings and challenges openly.
I support clients in understanding the roots of their struggles, identifying their strengths, and developing strategies to manage their symptoms. My goal is to empower clients to achieve greater emotional well-being and lead a more balanced and fulfilling life.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor based in AZ. I also hold licenses in MI, PA and TX. I graduated from Messiah University with a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and have been working in the field for 8 years. I really enjoy working with couples and families, but am always humbled and honored to walk through a challenging time with any client(s).
I’m Royce L. Jones, MS, LPCC, MBA — a licensed professional counselor associate, Navy veteran, and mental performance consultant dedicated to helping individuals grow with intention. I specialize in working with student-athletes, high-performing professionals, and men navigating identity, leadership, and life transitions. My approach blends evidence-based practices like EMDR, mindfulness, and performance psychology with culturally responsive care to create a space that is honest, practical, and growth-focused. My goal is simple: to help you build awareness, strengthen resilience, and become the best version of yourself — on and off the field.
I am Yvonne Smith, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with over 11 years of experience walking alongside children, teens, and adults as they navigate life’s challenges. I specialize in trauma-focused care as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) and a Certified Trauma-Informed Coach (CTIC). My passion is helping individuals move from surviving to thriving by providing a safe, supportive, and faith-affirming environment for healing.
My counseling approach is holistic, addressing the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. I integrate evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), narrative therapy, and trauma-informed interventions to help clients better understand themselves, build resilience, and create meaningful change. For those who desire it, I also incorporate Christian counseling, offering prayer, Scripture reflection, and biblical encouragement to strengthen identity in Christ and foster hope.
Over the years, I have worked with children and families in foster care, adolescents facing anxiety and depression, stepmoms managing co-parenting stress, and adults processing difficult life transitions. I understand how overwhelming it can feel to carry the weight of trauma, stress, or uncertainty, and my goal is to provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you feel truly seen and supported.
As both a clinician and a coach, I believe healing is possible when we connect your story, strengths, and values with practical tools for emotional regulation and personal growth. Whether you are seeking clinically-focused therapy, faith-integrated counseling, or trauma-informed coaching, I will meet you where you are and walk with you at a pace that feels right.
My heart is to empower you to move forward with confidence, peace, and renewed purpose—because you deserve a life filled with hope and wholeness.

My specialty area is addictions. I struggled with alcohol addiction for about 23 years. Through God's redeeming grace and an excellent education, I am well equipped to help those struggling with addiction and the anxiety, depression, worry, and fear that may or may not be attached to the addiction.
My life experience with addiction has equipped me with an understanding about addiction. Not just for the individual, but for the affected family/social network as well. My education at Grand Rapids Theological Seminary has also equipped me with God's ultimate resource for our afflictions - The Word of God.

Do you seek guidance in your life at this time? Everyone has a story to tell and I'm here to listen to yours.

I welcome the opportunity to work with you to improve your sense of success and live your life to the fullest.

My journey to mental healthcare
Started a long time ago, as a child and possibly in utero. From a family of caregivers. I have always been a healer and worked at age 16 as a peer mentor and worked my way through my associate's degree in social work, to then taking a break to start a family. I now have my master's and am ready to help others reach their goals on their journey.

Whether you're in Ohio, Michigan, Minnesota, Arizona or Louisiana. I offer convenient teletherapy to help you explore, heal and move forward towards a happier and healthier mindset. I specialize in PTSD, Depression, Anxiety and Stress Management.
I specialize in working with diverse populations, including veterans and their families, couples, and victims of trauma.

I served as a clinical chaplain for 9 years at the Dept. of VA in Mental Health and Substance Abuse Recovery and Rehabilitation.

I am a firm believer in a person-centered, whole-health approach to healthcare and total well-being.
If you ever need assistance for what could be described as symptoms of depression or anxiety, this may require a more comprehensive evaluation. If you experience poor appetite, lack of interest in normal activities, poor concentration, and frequent fatigue, additional information could be required in order to establish a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
Seeking help at times can be very difficult.
Some people believe seeking help for personal problems is a sign of weakness. In fact, the opposite is true; it's actually a sign of strength! I look forward to working with you and assisting you in getting your life back on track. I have committed nearly 46 years of my life to helping others. I'm always grateful for the opportunity and consider working with others an honor and a privilege.

Hi, my name is Jeana, and I am a master's level clinical social worker. I have two young adult daughters, a dog, and a cat. With over 25 years of experience in social work, my background includes community work, hospice care, and one-on-one therapy. I've had the privilege of working virtually with clients worldwide, ranging in age from 18 to mature adults. My clients typically seek support for issues related to depression, anxiety, ADHD, family conflict, LGBTQ concerns, and diverse relationship styles. As a person of faith, I am open to working with individuals of all faiths, religions, cultures, and lifestyles. I find great joy in helping anyone willing to take the first step toward creating change in their life.
I am a clinical social worker who supports individuals, couples, and families navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the clients can gain insight and develop practical coping skills.

I am Patricia Jenkins Jones, a Clinical Social Worker with over two decades of experience specializing in transforming the lives of ambitious professionals overwhelmed by stress and anxiety. Through a unique blend of Client-Centered Therapy, CBT, and mindfulness techniques, I empower individuals to master stress, navigate life's transitions, and achieve a fulfilling work-life balance. My approach is tailored to fit the realities of your busy lifestyle, ensuring therapy becomes a transformative journey towards well-being and resilience, not just another task on your to-do list.
I'm a clinician with over 20 years of experience supporting Individuals through a wide range of life challenges. My approach is practical, collaborative, and focuses on helping you better understand what's going on while identifying clear objectives. I work with people who are ready for change, unsure about their next steps, or simply looking for a space to process and gain clarity. My goal is to create a supportive, straightforward environment where you feel heard and can make meaningful progress. Together, we focus on building insight and solutions that fit your needs and goals.
When we begin our work together, the first thing you’ll notice is a "take your shoes off" atmosphere. I believe therapy works best when it feels less like a clinical exam and more like a candid, over-the-coffee-table conversation. This is a space for an honest, active partnership where we bypass clinical clichés to get to the root of what is actually happening in your life.
We all carry an "internal blueprint"—a set of old scripts and historical templates that dictate how we react to the world. Often, we don’t realize these blueprints exist until we find ourselves hitting the same walls in our relationships, our careers, or our own self-perception. I work with individuals and couples who are ready to investigate these patterns and move toward real, observable change.
The Approach
My approach focuses on the connection between your history and your current actions, supported by the rigor of behavioral science. My background in pharmacology has taught me that while biology is vital, it isn’t the boss. The science shows us that our brains are profoundly social; therefore, the real work happens within the relationship we build together. We treat our sessions as a live map to identify and rewrite the ingrained habits that no longer serve you.
The Impact
The goal is to move you from a state of reaction to a state of grounded agency. We work to restore your capacity for intentional action and give you the clarity needed to be a deliberate, authentic presence in your own life.
