Hi, I'm Melissa, and I’m deeply passionate about helping those who serve and those who are facing unique challenges. I understand the toll that trauma, high-stress environments, and coping with loss can take, especially for first responders, veterans, and those struggling with addiction. If you’re feeling isolated, dealing with the weight of unresolved trauma, or navigating the pull of gambling or substance use, I want you to know you’re not alone. My goal is to offer you a compassionate, supportive space where you feel heard and understood, no matter where you are on your journey. In our work together, I use proven methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, and strengths-based approaches, tailoring them to meet your unique needs. My approach is person-centered, focused on helping you understand your experiences and empowering you to build healthier coping mechanisms and resilience. Throughout sessions, you can expect to gain new insights, manage stress, and develop skills to overcome personal obstacles. My goal is to help you rediscover balance, purpose, and a renewed sense of hope. Whether you're seeking a partner in healing or a fresh start, I'm here to support you in reaching your goals. Please book a consult using my website link!

I have worked for several years to support clients in different phases of life from adolescence, high school, emergency psychiatric admission as well as outpatient services. I often work with clients who have a history of complex trauma and/or loss. I know firsthand that the dark days can feel unbearable, but there are better days ahead. I like to say that I can take clients from "surviving" to "thriving".

Hi, I'm Brandi and I'm excited to help individuals and couples improve communication and understanding in their relationships. Our potential to be well, cope with stress, be ourselves, and connect with others are continually linked and impacted by our relationships. Relationships are so important that they require consistent attention and effort for success. As a practical person and therapist, I offer strength-based brief therapy to give your relationships that attention to create change and increase that potential to be well. I've supported individuals, couples, and families from various walks of life and backgrounds for over 12 years from working with family crises as case management to professional counseling. Are you wanting a better relationship with yourself or to manage stress better? Are you tired of going in circles and ready to have more understanding in your relationships? Then let's get to work!

Are you struggling with anxiety, the lingering weight of trauma, or feeling deeply stuck in patterns you can't seem to break?

I’m Deirdre Kuvaas, LPCC, a virtual trauma therapist committed to helping adults find profound healing. I offer a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where your story can unfold at your own pace.

I am an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) with experience in working with adults and children from in-patient as well as out-patient settings. I have worked with teenagers and young children for over 10 years. I specialize in working with children with trauma, anxiety, and depression. I have a heart for working with kids and teens with traumatic experiences. My passion began while I was still in high school and wanted to be a teacher. I worked in various daycare facilities as well as having my own in-home daycare and decided I wanted to help kids (and adults) in a more in-depth manner. That is when I began my journey into social work and found my true calling in life. I have experience working with children and adolescents who have been through, or are currently in, the child welfare system as well as working with older teens with substance abuse/misuse issues.

Welcome! I'm Brittany Byers, LISW-S. I received by Masters in Social Work from Walden University and have been practicing since 2015. I've worked in community mental health and addiction services, but for the last 3 years, I've been doing telehealth therapy helping clients manage their mental health and addiction issues. Enough about me. Let's take a moment to acknowledge you've taken the first step towards bettering your mental health because, let's be honest - starting therapy can be empowering, confusing, or scary, all at the same time. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore obstacles with concerns related to anxiety, depression, ADHD, substance use, trauma, and/or self-care. I focus on helping clients develop assertive communication & boundaries with themselves and those around them that can help improve their quality of life.

For more than a decade I have been counseling clients with a variety of mental, emotional, relational, and spiritual health struggles from a wide spectrum of personalities and life experiences. Each counseling experience brings challenges and victories. I consider it an honor and privilege to come alongside individuals or couples in need- to help in the healing process through processing trauma, identifying and replacing harmful and self-sabotaging patterns of behavior with restorative ones, providing mediation and advocacy, and offering compassion and accountability. I grew up in Ohio, but now live on a 17 acre homestead in the Ozarks with my wife of 17 years and our 6 children. My personal interests range from video games to lumberjacking. I have enjoyed the time and opportunity to work remotely and start a new chapter in my life with my family figuring out the homesteading chaos.

Hello and welcome! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Pennsylvania and Ohio with over 20 years of experience working with adolescents and adults. My passion is helping individuals who have experienced domestic abuse, trauma, and emotional pain find healing, regain their sense of purpose, and reconnect with their “WHY.” I specialize in supporting clients struggling with symptoms such as PTSD, depression, anxiety, low self-worth, mistrust, and hopelessness. Many of the individuals I work with face challenges in toxic or unhealthy relationships—whether personal or professional—and together we focus on breaking free from these cycles to rediscover inner strength, confidence, and direction. My approach is grounded in the belief that your story has power. I have had the privilege of guiding clients not only through their healing process but also toward sharing their stories—some have even published books that inspire others to seek help and begin their own healing journeys. Working with me, you will find a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can process your pain, explore your strengths, and transform trauma into resilience. I tailor treatment plans to your unique needs and honor you as the expert of your own story. While I may not always have every answer, I will stand beside you as you uncover your own path forward. My goal is to help you heal, re-energize, and embrace your life story with confidence and strength. Together, we can transform emotional pain into empowerment and help you live with renewed purpose and clarity of your “WHY.”
