TaMara brings a wealth of experience in an unconventional way. As a former owner of a home healthcare company, that primarily provided services to the elderly, TaMara found herself assisting families, particularly adult children, who had to make tough healthcare and financial decisions for their parent(s). She helped families establish goals on how best to support their parents in maintaining dignity and independence while simultaneously identifying the next steps in the event of their parents’ passing. While families had to come to terms with the physical, mental, and/or psychological changes seen in their parents, taking on the parental role was quite emotionally challenging for adult children. TaMara supported the entire family in managing these delicate issues.

Welcome to Safe Haven Counseling, LLC.

I am trauma informed and trained as well as have trained over 200 therapists nationally regarding the impact of trauma on our attachments and relationships. I know both personally and professionally how important healthy, meaningful relationships are to our overall well-being. I also know the profound impact when our most important relationships are full of stress, hurt, betrayal and trauma. I have extensive knowledge on the impact of trauma when we desire loving supportive connections. I desire to create a "safe haven" where individuals can feel a sense of calm in the storms of their traumatic relationships to explore, process and heal the broken pieces of our hearts when our connections hurt rather than support.

Hi. My name is Christine Toler, Chris, and I earned my Ed.S and LPC- MHSP in the state of Tennessee, and New Jersey. I have been licensed as a Professional Counselor since 2010, and a School Counselor since 2006. I started being a believer in therapy when it first helped me over forty years ago, (as a child). I thought what a wonderful way to get to the root of the problem... and get rid of it. Since then I have been working on myself as a client as well as acquiring a licensure to help others, including teens, adults and families. I focus on solution based and non-judgmental cognitive therapy. I believe understanding a problem is not the end of the work. The action we take to support a positive change... is what changes lives. And while I have experienced that in some very important areas... I continue to grow... daily. I choose to be transparent about that because I believe it is important to the work that my clients know I understand how it feels to be in their chair. If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, doubt, guilt, grief, or all of the above, I believe I can help you.

Hi there, Have you ever struggled with understanding what you are feeling? Have you ever felt your feelings were invalidated and not know who to talk to about it?

As we are all different there is no single therapeutic approach that works for everyone. I am a Bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker who specializes in working with individuals who have suffered trauma at some point in their life. Throughout, my work I have gained knowledge which, has enabled me to help many individuals manage their anxiety and depression among other mental health disorders.

Hi, I'm Marjorie, an experienced clinical social worker, licensed in the states of Pennsylvania and New Jersey. My specialties include working with adolescents and adults from varied backgrounds, identities, and cultures who suffer from symptoms of depression, anxiety, or mood disorders. There may be times in your life when you are struggling. Perhaps you are overwhelmed with anxiety or depression which is interfering with your day-to-day living and/or work. Perhaps you are experiencing unhappiness in important relationships, or you are resorting to unhealthy ways of coping such as disordered eating, self-harm activities, or other self-sabotaging behaviors. You may generally feel "less than," or feel as if you don't fit in, feel conflicted about your identity, or feel debilitated by anxiety or depressive symptoms. The "work" of therapy can offer relief from painful symptoms and conflicts while addressing your unique and particular patterns of thoughts and behaviors that are holding you back from a more productive and fulfilling life. My goal is to listen and work with you to understand your unique experiences, identify underlying thoughts and feelings about yourself and others, examine how your past may have informed your present, and provide a safe space for you to explore yourself. Together we will identify patterns that are not working for you and find strategies, personal to you, to overcome them. My therapeutic modalities include Cognitive Behavioral and Psychodynamic approaches and often include DBT practices such as mindfulness and guided meditation techniques.

Hello there, I'm Clover. I am a passionate, Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to helping individuals find strength, healing, and personal growth. With 8+ years of experience in the field, I aim to provide a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore their thoughts, emotions, and challenges.

My approach combines evidence-based therapies, such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy, with a person-centered focus. By tailoring my interventions to each individual's unique needs and goals, I aim to empower my clients to overcome obstacles, develop healthier coping strategies, and thrive in their lives.

I am deeply committed to fostering personal growth, resilience, and self-compassion within my clients.

With both personal and clinical experience working through depression, anxiety, PTSD, dissociation and grief, I am most passionate about working through trauma and PTSD. Having overcome complex trauma and PTSD, I believe that others can too. I know what it is like to feel desperate. I know what it's like to wake up in the morning and wish I hadn't. I know what it's like to lose hope. And I know what it's like to journey through the stages of grief and find new life. If I can find hope and laugh and love again, you can too.

As each of us goes through life, we will experience difficult transitions. It could be the losses of a loved one or pet to death through disease, accident, or natural causes. Personally, you or a loved one may face cancer or other life-threatening situations. Life’s transitions are challenging. In all cases, you will need support from family, friends, and professionals. My professional experience includes working with adolescents and adults from diverse backgrounds facing challenging transitions in their lives. I have supported clients confronting these transitions while witnessing them gain greater self-awareness. I have also witnessed these clients becoming stronger and more confident through the healing process. I also addressed with clients associated conditions such as depression, anxiety, stress, loss of self-esteem, burnout, and just feeling stuck. I offer empathetic and personable individualized therapeutic services utilizing different theoretical orientations. You will have the opportunity to freely express yourself in a safe and non-judgmental space. To help you achieve your goals and make positive changes in your life, I will also gently challenge you to be receptive to new perspectives on your healing journey. If you are ready to face the wind of your life’s transition, reach out to schedule an appointment.

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 be aware of their strengths. 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. It is my ethical duty to officially terminate our therapeutic relationship when it is reasonably clear the client is no longer beneficent, when services are no longer required, when counseling no longer serves the needs and/or interests of the client or when Dr Olushola Bakare, LMFT limits do not allow provision of further counseling services. It is the policy of Dr. Olushola Bakare, LMFT, that after a one-month consistent lapse of meeting with a client our professional relationship will be considered terminated. Dr Olushola Bakare, LMFT, will make an attempt to notify you of this change in status as soon as possible after the one-month period. It is my ethical duty to identify, be available, and care for current clients. This could possibly feel awkward for our relationship to end yet, is not meant to be discourteous in anyway.

As a clinician whose practice and vision was shaped by living in and serving in the community where she worked, I was attuned to the challenges, obstacles, nuances, and vibrancy of the needs of the community as well as the difficulties in accessing care.

My cultural, linguistic, and gendered experiences helped in better understanding of the cultural norms, roles, expectations, and life complexities of my clients. As a bilingual, bicultural, Latinx, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Therapist, Healer and Life Coach, with over 9 years of experience, I have dedicated my practice to working with men, women and children, centering wholeness with an intersectional approach to understanding the situation–the Who, What, Where, When and How. In session, you will experience authenticity, empathy and humor as I bring a humanistic approach to each session.

Hey, my name is Marrium Guirguis and I am here to help you wherever you are in life.

Hi there, I'm Shakia. Are you ready to achieve your goals?
 Do you ever feel like you're not in charge of your life? You know what you want to accomplish, but something is preventing you from achieving it.

I look forward to getting to know you in order to help you get to the places where you want to be. Together we will develop a plan to address challenging aspects of your mental health. I love working within the OCD community.
