Hello! My name is Ellie and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Therapy is a process of self-discovery. My goal for each session is to create a warm, approachable, and safe environment in which clients feel heard, understood, and empowered exploring and addressing issues in therapy, while cultivating self-awareness and healthy coping skills. In my practice, I work to build a caring, authentic, and collaborative client-therapist relationship as I believe fostering and nurturing the therapeutic alliance is the catalyst and essential for achieving and experiencing positive, lasting change in your relationships and life. Some of my areas of expertise include, but are not limited to, depression and anxiety, adjustment disorders, personality disorders, women’s issues, relationship/marital issues, parent-child conflict, hoarding disorder, PTSD and trauma, self-harm and suicidal ideation, attachment issues, eating disorders, self-esteem and body image issues, and grief and loss. The therapy process allows clients to identify and reach their goals and aspirations, find more meaning and purpose and effectively cope with challenging emotions, stress, and adversity. I believe in the healing and change that therapy brings people and believe in the power of tapping into the creative and deeper part of self that promotes true growth.

I’m a warm, down-to-earth therapist who believes that feeling safe, understood, and genuinely supported is the foundation for meaningful change. With over 15 years of experience across schools, hospitals, crisis settings, and community-based care, I’ve had the privilege of working with people at many different stages of life—from teens navigating overwhelming emotions to adults facing complex life challenges. My background as both a counselor and school social worker has given me a deep understanding of how early experiences, family dynamics, and life transitions shape who we are. I’ve supported students and families through anxiety, emotional struggles, and difficult situations, and I carry that same patience, empathy, and advocacy into my work with all clients. I’ve also worked in high-intensity environments—including crisis settings, alongside law enforcement, in hospitals, and with veterans, survivors of trauma and domestic violence, and individuals in eating disorder treatment. Because of this, I’m comfortable supporting clients who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to start. You don’t have to have everything figured out to begin. In our work together, I focus on creating a space where you can be yourself without fear of judgment. I balance practical tools and coping strategies with deeper exploration, helping you not only manage what you’re going through, but also understand it. My approach is collaborative, supportive, and tailored to you—whether you’re looking for structure, insight, or simply a place to feel heard. Reaching out for therapy can be hard, but you don’t have to do it alone. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, more confident, and more in control of your life.

Welcome! I am Quarda- Licensed Clinical Social Worker, professional listener, and occasional over-user of sticky notes. I help people untangle the messy parts of life, whether it's anxiety, relationship hiccups, burnout, or just that nagging feeling that something's "off". My style is supportive, down- to-earth, and sprinkled with humor-- because sometimes laughter really is the best medicine (right after actual therapy of course). I use evidence -based techniques and empathy to assist you in making sense of your story and editing it as you may, build resilience, and move forward with purpose. Therapy doesn't have to be stiff or scary-- and if you're ready to do the work (and maybe laugh a little along the way), I'm here for it.

Trauma has haunted you for years. It’s left you with nightmares and flashbacks. It’s caused you to distrust others and push them away. It’s made you feel broken and hopeless. You’ve tried everything you can think of to shed the weight of the past. You’ve read the books, tried the life hacks… You may have even talked to a therapist. But now, you’re out of options. Nothing has helped you transition from being a survivor to someone who’s truly alive. And you’re all talked out. No matter how many times you tell your story, nothing changes. The search for relief is exhausting. This might be your last shot at getting help.

I am a Licensed Clinical and Mental Health Counselor and work together with the client to peel back the layers of the onion, uncovering client’s suffering and route of healing. Through this journey of exploration clients increase self-awareness and self-love. Growth is part of the journey which requires clients to step outside of comfort, instead engaging in exploration as a path to healing. As a counselor, I journey with the client as expert to increase wellness and authenticity. Suffering is part of the journey, and a path to healing we discover together. Sometimes going through the healing process can be scary, but I am excited to meet you where you are and walk with you to where you want to go.

My counseling approach is characterized by a combination of honesty, empathy, and compassion, complemented by a subtle touch of humor. I employ an eclectic counseling approach that encompasses various therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Play Therapy/Child Centered Play Therapy, Art Therapy, and Solution-Focused therapy. I believe there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy, so I focus on what works best for each person. I’m committed to adjusting my style to fit each client’s unique needs and challenges. In my free time, I live for spending quality moments with my two pups and close friends. Additionally, I relish day trips and attending performances featuring Drag Queens.

Hi. I am a LPC in Georgia and a LCMHC in North Carolina. Additionally, I am a Nationally Certified Rehabilitation Counselor. I received my master's degree from VCU in 2015, became licensed in 2020, and have been practicing on my own ever since. I live by two mottos "It takes a village" and "take time for you". It is important to “take time for yourself,” because we need time to recharge, so that we can continue to persevere. However, there comes a time in everyone’s life where the support of the village is needed. That’s why I believe it "takes a village” and working together as a team is important. Whether it is a clinician and client duo, or a team of medical professionals, we can achieve reasonable and practical goals.

Hi there, I am Jen. Do you want to improve the quality of your life? Do you want to make long-lasting changes that improve areas of your life such as work and relationships? I empower clients to overcome the daily challenges of dealing with such issues as depression (or other mood disorders), anxiety, PTSD/Trauma, and grief. I'm here to help clients (ages 10 & up) get back to a place in their life where they feel more balanced, secure and to a place where they feel happy with their overall quality of life. I do believe in a holistic approach that focuses on the mind-body-spirit connection. I utilize various techniques that include mindfulness, helping you identify and address irrational thoughts, motivational interviewing and more. I work with clients to identify treatment goals at their 1st appointment, if possible and I also like to assign therapeutic "homework" since this helps clients practice and eventually acquire the skills they need to feel better about themselves and their lives. No matter the issue, I'm here to help. Seeking therapy is a brave thing to do and I will provide a safe space to help you heal and grow. In our sessions, I will provide empathy, active listening and humor to help you overcome what is troubling you. I look forward to hearing from you soon!

My approach is integrative, trauma-informed, and tailored to each individual. I draw from science-based therapies to support healing on both emotional and nervous system levels. This may include trauma-focused work, nervous system regulation skills, mindfulness, somatic (body-based) practices, cognitive and behavioral strategies, and practical tools to support everyday life. Together, we will work at a pace that feels safe and supportive for you. Therapy may focus on processing experiences, building emotional regulation skills, increasing mind-body awareness, strengthening boundaries, and creating healthier patterns that extend beyond the therapy room.

This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use.
