Hi I am Angela, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have been a therapist for over 20 years and have worked with many people who have had to walk through many of life’s challenges or are just in need of extra support. Life can be challenging at times with personal issues such as job loss, family conflict, anxiety about current life situations, and maybe even just needing/wanting someone to talk to and process things with. We all have friends, but a neutral person could be beneficial too. I have experience personally and professionally with depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, emotion regulation, and dealing with vocational stress, trauma, and just overall looking for ways to manage life in general. I would love to be able to work with you in being able to learn new coping strategies (or refreshing old ones and ones you didn’t know you had).
Everyone needs help and it's OK to not be OK. I specialize in life transitions/new life roles, relationships, family issues, boundaries, parenting, and any stressors in your world. I provide a caring and safe place to talk through your concerns, challenges and barriers. I have extensive experience treating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, self esteem issues, relationships, LGBQT, and mood disorders. I always emphasis the importance of self-care and will help you develop personal methods.

Hi, I’m Christina. As an LCSW with 25 years of experience, I’ve learned two things: human beings are incredibly resilient, and absolutely nobody has it entirely figured out.
My approach is a mix of deep compassion, straight-shooting honesty, and a healthy dose of humor—because if we can't laugh at the chaos of life sometimes, what are we even doing? I’ve heard almost everything, I don't shock easily, and I leave the preachy, stuffy therapist vibes at the door.
Ultimately, I’m just a human who loves helping other humans untangle the messy, beautiful parts of life without any judgment. Think of me as a guide with a massive toolkit, a finely tuned intuition, and a genuine appreciation for your unique story.
I look forward to meeting and working with you!"
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) dedicated to providing a warm, affirming, and collaborative space where clients can explore life's challenges with curiosity and compassion. I work with adults and couples navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship concerns, life transitions, burnout, stress, self-esteem, and emotional overwhelm. I am especially passionate about supporting individuals who are healing from difficult life experiences, strengthening their relationships, and learning to live more authentically.
My therapeutic approach is holistic, trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and tailored to each client's unique experiences and goals. I integrate evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, psychodynamic principles, and somatic awareness to help clients develop practical coping skills, deepen self-awareness, and create lasting change.
I believe therapy should be a place where you feel genuinely seen, heard, and accepted while also being supported to challenge patterns that no longer serve you. Together, we'll build on your strengths, cultivate resilience and self-compassion, and develop the tools needed to navigate life's challenges with greater confidence, balance, and emotional well-being.
Maybe your mind feels like it never shuts off—overthinking, worrying, or constantly feeling on edge. Or maybe it’s the opposite... feeling low, unmotivated, or disconnected from yourself in a way that’s hard to explain. Some days feel heavy, and even simple things take more effort than they used to.
You may also be carrying grief—whether from a loss, a life change, or something that didn’t turn out the way you hoped. At the same time, work stress or burnout might be adding another layer, leaving you feeling emotionally drained and stretched thin.
I primarily work with women who are navigating anxiety, depression, grief, and the impact of past experiences. Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside, but internally feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or stuck in patterns they can’t seem to break.
Hi, I’m glad you’re here. Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and I want you to know that you don’t have to do it alone. I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with experience working with kids, teens, adults, and families, and my goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable, supported, and understood.
In our work together, I’ll meet you where you are—whether you’re dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, College, relationship challenges, or just feeling stuck. I use a mix of approaches like CBT, mindfulness, and strength-based techniques, but more than anything, I focus on listening to you and tailoring sessions to what you need.
I truly believe therapy is about collaboration—you bring your experiences and hopes, and I bring tools and support to help you move forward. My hope is that you’ll leave sessions feeling lighter, more confident, and more connected to yourself.
