Hi! I'm Jen Tucker, a licensed mental health counselor who is passionate about serving others. I'm a military veteran and a military spouse. I'm also a wife, mom, and grandmother. I've been through a lot in my life. Most of you have too. After all, you find yourself here looking for something. It is my firm belief that each and every one of us has tremendous potential. We all have unique talents and skills, honed and sharpened through our life experiences. These experiences, while crucial to shaping us, can also leave us hurt, confused, numb, or insecure. It is paramount that we stop along our journey to take stock, address our needs, heal, and refocus. Sometimes, we realize we may benefit from having extra support or guidance through these moments. That is where therapy can help. Throughout my counseling career, I have had the privilege of being able to walk beside clients as they process the past, learn to be comfortable in the present, and get excited for the future. I am certified in trauma and treat clients with a wide range of concerns. Whether you feel ready to dive into therapy, or you are just contemplating the idea, I'd love to hear from you. I am currently accepting video clients for individual therapy. If you aren't ready to make contact, I have some resources available for self-reflection. Check out my blog at NotWavingButDrowning.org or my TikTok @MHMinute, where you'll find videos on a variety of mental health topics.

At the heart of my practice is human connection. I want therapy to feel like a genuine conversation with someone who gets it—not like you’re sitting across from a clinical research paper. I love to laugh with my clients, talk about the real stuff, and create a space where you never have to worry about being judged or saying the “wrong” thing. I’m a human being, too, and I believe that sharing parts of myself when it’s helpful can make therapy feel more comfortable, relatable, and real. My hope is that you feel safe enough to be completely yourself with me. Maybe you’ll cry. Maybe we’ll laugh. Maybe you’ll have an “aha” moment, or maybe you’ll simply leave feeling like you finally got something off your chest. I want therapy to be something you actually look forward to—not another obligation on your calendar. My goal is for you to leave each session feeling a little lighter, a little more understood, and a little more hopeful about yourself and your future. Therapy is self-care, but it’s also connection. And sometimes, you just need a real person sitting across from you saying, “Yeah…that’s really hard. Let’s figure this out together.”

Feelings are an essential and unavoidable part of life - sometimes uplifting, sometimes overwhelming. Our daily experiences come with highs and lows, and as humans, we thrive through connection and honest conversations. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, my role is to create a safe, welcoming space where you feel heard and supported. In therapy, every thought, emotion, and behavior can be explored, making life's ups and downs feel less daunting and more manageable. If you're struggling with anxiety, depression, burnout, low motivation, relationship challenges, grief, boundary issues, career/life transitions, or difficulties with family and friends, I can help you process these emotions and find a way forward. Beginning therapy can feel intimidating, but my priority is to help you feel comfortable and supported every step of the way. I am dedicated to your growth and success. Let’s get started!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 10 years of experience working in the fields of substance use and mental health. I am also a Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CAADC), with extensive experience supporting individuals struggling with substance use disorders, mood disorders, personality disorders, trauma, and other mental health challenges. My approach to treatment is grounded in trauma-informed care and a strong belief in the power of self-awareness. I believe meaningful change begins when individuals take the time to understand themselves, their experiences, and how past events have shaped their thoughts, behaviors, and patterns. Through this process of insight and reflection, individuals can begin to develop healthier coping strategies and create lasting change. While therapy can provide guidance, support, and tools for growth, I also emphasize the importance of personal commitment and motivation in the recovery process. When individuals are willing to engage in that work, therapy can become a powerful space for healing, growth, and transformation.

I’m a firm believer that we are all carriers of deep, complex life stories. These stories build and shape our inner worlds and can be both elevating and/or burdensome to us. They build our reality and how we place ourselves within it. As a licensed clinical social worker, my work focuses on helping my clients interact with their stories, organize their habits, and shape the mental patterns that they are functioning within. We work together to make certain these stories are in alignment with the life they want to build for themselves. My approach to mental health care focuses on the mind-body connection, and a deep emphasis on both thought and bodily sensation awareness. I hope to partner with my clients as they find more security and self understanding within our work together. I look forward to seeing you all within the space and am excited to begin our work together!

Hello! Welcome to my site, my name is Ryan Brooks Leslie, licensed professional counselor and registered art therapist. I'm glad you found me here. There are few situations in life which are comparable to being in therapy; A helping relationship based on mutual respect, honesty, humility, educated/objective guidance, and genuine connection, in order for you to better navigate this thing we call "life". Being able to say anything, without fear of judgment, reproach, or rejection can allow you to truly face the obstacles that separate you from happiness and freedom; to be the best and most fulfilled version of yourself. I have spent the better part of 18 years educating myself and honing my counseling skills to people in this endeavor, and I must say I love being a therapist and have great confidence in my therapeutic skills and their benefit to you. I am experienced in addictions, trauma (EMDR- Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, improving social skills, existential life issues and transitions. I have found that it is often a combination of forces within and without of ourselves that create our unique situations that we need help with. While I have many methods to facilitate processing (talking, art therapy, mindfulness, EMDR), I believe that you are the expert of your unique story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming the challenges of your life. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I commend you for your effort and I am here to support, empower and be a fellow traveler on your journey. "The most powerful thing in the world, is an idea whose time has come"- Victor Hugo

I believe that a strong therapeutic relationship is the foundation of effective therapy.

Welcome! I'm so glad you're here and making this decision to try something new. Therapy can truly be a sacred space. It's a place that can absolutely change your life, if you allow your self the time and space to heal. My focus is to see you as uniquely you: the good, the bad, and the sometimes ugly. I believe we all have inherent value and worth, and I strive to see this in every single person, including you! We may have some changes we need to make and some behaviors we have to part ways with, but through this healing journey, I want you to know how valued and loved you are. To embrace life again like we were meant to. To forgive others and learn to let go. To change what you can and find peace with what you can't. I operate from a trauma-informed perspective - recognizing how the past has changed the way we see ourselves and those around us. I look at how early life experiences impact our relationships, attachments, emotions, motivation, and joy. I incorporate mindfulness to help with regulation and utilize psychoeducation to understand that what happened in the past can't be changed, but we have the ability to pursue healing and growth regardless. At this time, I am self-pay only for couples sessions ($150/session).

Life is hard. Sometimes it feels like problems come one after another. It is overwhelming. You don't have to get through it alone. Therapy is a great place to talk about life's problems where you can say anything and not be judged. No matter what you’re facing, talking with someone can help. My goal is to create a supportive, judgment-free space where you feel like you’re grabbing coffee with a friend…a friend who happens to be a licensed counselor with more than 11 years of experience. In my time working as a counselor, I have helped patients manage and overcome obstacles like anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. From challenges with the overwhelming pressure of academic life, work life, career choices, relationship challenges, and more, I will be there to offer an objective perspective on your situation and provide healthy tips and resources to navigate it. My approach empowers personal growth while always ensuring you feel safe, seen, and heard. Depending on your needs, I utilize CBT, DBT, and Reality Therapy approaches in sessions. Currently, all sessions will be conducted virtually, allowing you to participate from the comfort of your own home and on a more flexible schedule. Let's do this together.

As a licensed professional counselor, I believe that healing begins with a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space. I specialize in helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship issues, and self-worth challenges. I work with adults from all walks of life and offer a compassionate, culturally sensitive approach that honors your unique story. My clinical style is collaborative, grounded in empathy and trust. I use evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), solution-focused therapy, and mindfulness techniques to help you identify unhelpful patterns, build emotional resilience, and move toward lasting growth and wellness. Whether you're struggling with panic attacks, intrusive thoughts, grief, or just feeling stuck, I’m here to support your journey toward clarity and healing. I also bring a strong spiritual awareness into sessions if that’s important to you. Many of my clients appreciate integrating their faith and values into therapy, and I’m honored to support that part of your life as well. Together, we’ll create a path that supports your goals, your pace, and your voice. You're not alone—and your healing matters.

Hi there! I am a big sports fan who loves spending time with family, sharing laughter, and enjoying great food. Music and outdoor activities are two of my favorite things. I’m always eager to learn something new and love starting my days early. Helping others reach their full potential and witnessing those ah-ha moments truly inspires me. You’ll often catch me embarrassing my family with my corny dad jokes or dance moves. I’ve worked in a variety of therapeutic settings as a school counselor, acute therapist, and suicide prevention therapist. My lifelong motto is, "do your best so you can give your best."

If you’re here it’s likely because you find yourself struggling. Perhaps you’re in the midst of a transition - a new job, a new city, graduating college, the end of a relationship, or the loss of a loved one. You’re not sure how to navigate the situation and the feelings associated with it are intense. Maybe you’re like the estimated 21 million U.S. adults living with depression. You can’t find any motivation. You're staying in more instead of meeting up with friends. You’re crying for no apparent reason. Maybe you’re like the estimated 42.5 million U.S. adults who live with anxiety. You can’t find rest. You don't feel safe. Your thoughts race and you feel on edge all the time. I'm here to walk with you. In our work together we will navigate immediate challenges while also finding new insights and a deeper self-awareness that will help you develop a healthier relationship with yourself and others. I often draw from Cognitive Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and most prominently from a Psychodynamic approach to guide you through this process of change. Whether you're new to therapy or have had past experiences it is my hope that our work together will offer you new perceptions that can be used for change and help you feel more comfortable with you.

The journey to wholeness begins with one step. While at times the journey can be difficult, the freedom that can be found on the other side makes it all worth the effort. By choosing to find a therapist you have taken that first step. I hold a Ph.D. in Counseling from Loyola University in MD. I have been in practice for close to 20 years now. I have experience working with depression, anxiety, trauma, LGBTQ issues, substance use, as well as the general life stressors we all experience in this face-paced, demanding world we live in whether that be work or relationships. I offer individual therapy sessions and am willing to journey with you on your self-defined path to wholeness. I bring a client-centered approach and we will go at the speed you wish to journey.

Hi, I'm a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Virginia and Pennsylvania. I received my Doctorate degree in Couple & Family Therapy from the University of Minnesota and have been practicing for 8 years. I have experience working with individuals, couples, and families who struggle with anxiety, chronic health conditions, depression, loss and grief, stress, trauma, and relationship issues such as boundaries, parenting, intimacy, infidelity, trust, and more. I work with clients to process and heal psychological and relational pain. I believe that therapy is both science and art. The art of therapy can be seen as a joint venture between clients and therapists, and the science reflects in providing assessments, treatment plans, and evidence-based interventions. I believe in the collaboration between clients as experts in their lives and myself as a therapist who is trained in providing therapy services.

Are you having a hard time and in need of someone to listen and help you figure things out? Then now is the time to begin therapy. Hello, I’m Michael Zwizanski, a licensed therapist in Philadelphia, working with individual clients throughout Pennsylvania. I hold a Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy from Thomas Jefferson University and I’ve been honored to support clients through a wide range of personal challenges and life transitions. I offer a safe, affirming space for clients to explore challenges such as anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, family conflict, identity issues, and life transitions. My practice is anti-racist, sex-positive, LGBTQ+ competent, and gender-affirming. I recognize my privilege as a cisgender, white, male professional and strive to position myself as an equal collaborator in the therapeutic process, fostering mutual respect and growth. My approach integrates attachment-based therapy, parts work, somatic awareness, and trauma-informed care to help clients understand the emotional roots of their struggles and develop healthier ways of relating to themselves and others. I have experience supporting transgender clients through all stages of social, medical, and legal transition, and I am also competent in working with ethically non-monogamous individuals. Before becoming a therapist, I worked in the entertainment industry. Now, I provide therapy to artists, musicians, actors, and entrepreneurs. Understanding the unique pressures and creative self-doubt they experience, I help clients navigate the drive for self-expression and the obstacles that can impede personal growth. I specialize in helping clients navigate major life transitions—such as becoming a parent, getting married or divorced, changing careers, or coping with health challenges and grief. No matter the transition, I’m here to support you in finding clarity, healing and a path forward. Whether you're feeling anxious, stuck, or seeking a space to grow, I would be honored to support you on your path.
