Hi! My name is Diane Bales MS, LMHC, LPC. I am passionate about what I do. I love walking with clients through their journey of healing. I am known for really caring about my patients and I think that shows. I use an eclectic approach to treatment. I feel that everyone is different and not one approach works for everyone.

Hi I'm Phillip, Reaching out for support isn’t always easy—so take a moment to acknowledge the courage it took to take this first step. Starting therapy can feel empowering, overwhelming, or even a little scary—and that’s completely okay. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you can feel seen, heard, and understood. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, struggling with self-care, or just feeling stuck, you don’t have to figure it out alone. Together, we’ll work on building healthier boundaries, improving communication (especially with yourself!), and creating more balance in your life. Therapy is a space for growth, healing, and finding clarity—and you deserve all of that and more. If you’re ready to begin, I’m here and ready to walk alongside you.

Hello, and welcome. I’m so glad you’re here. I look forward to working with you and your family. I believe communication—even when it is limited to a single word or gesture—is the foundation of all relationships. In fact, research shows that much of our communication is nonverbal. My goal is to help individuals and families understand their relational patterns, navigate conflict more effectively, and become more congruent and intentional communicators. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, substance use concerns and relapse prevention, grief and trauma, and bipolar disorders. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in helping clients feel safe, understood, and empowered as they move through life’s challenges. Additionally, I specialize in autism-related family dynamics, caregiver burnout, and identity transitions. I am the author of Dear Single Mother: A Journal of Autism, Isolation, and Self-Discovery, a reflective work that explores resilience and meaning-making through lived experience. While my writing reflects personal insight, my clinical work is rooted in systemic, trauma-informed care that honors both evidence-based practice and each client's unique experiences in the therapy room.

I have worked in the mental health field for over 20 years and have been a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) for 17 years.

I also provide support for individuals struggling with anxiety, mood disorders, and other emotional difficulties that may arise from life’s stressors. I am committed to creating a warm, compassionate, and supportive environment where clients feel safe exploring their concerns, developing coping skills, and working toward meaningful personal growth and healing.

Hi, I’m Michelle. If you’re feeling stuck in anxiety, constantly worrying, or struggling with feeling “not good enough,” you’re not alone, and there’s nothing wrong with you. Many of the people I work with carry the weight of past experiences, family wounds, or trauma that still show up in their daily lives in ways they don’t always understand. In our work together, I offer a safe, compassionate space where you can slow down, feel supported, and begin to heal. I use approaches like EMDR and CBT to help you process painful experiences, calm anxious thoughts, and build a stronger sense of self-worth. For those who would like, I also integrate faith into counseling in a way that feels natural and supportive. I work mostly with adults who are ready for change but may not know where to start. My goal is to help you feel more at peace, more confident, and more connected, not just in sessions, but in everyday life too. Healing is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone.

Life can feel heavy when you are carrying anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, or emotional pain while still trying to show up for yourself and the people who depend on you. You may feel overwhelmed, irritable, numb, tearful, disconnected, or unsure how to move forward. In therapy, I offer a calm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can unpack what you have been holding, better understand your emotions, and learn practical tools to manage life in a healthier way. Together, we will work toward helping you feel more grounded, emotionally balanced, and confident as you navigate healing, growth, and life transitions. When you are ready to take the next step toward feeling more like yourself again, I am here to support you.

Sobre mi modo de trabajo Me gusta pensar cada encuentro como un espacio vivo, en donde quien consulta puede detenerse a mirar, a poner en palabras lo que muchas veces se manifiesta de otros modos: en el cuerpo, en los vínculos, en lo que se repite sin que sepamos bien por qué. Mi rol es activo: acompaño, señalo, hago preguntas. A veces, lo que aparece en una frase, en un gesto o en una duda, abre una puerta. El trabajo consiste en animarse a atravesarla. ¿Y cuándo es buen momento para consultar? No siempre es fácil saberlo. Pero a veces, el cuerpo o el ánimo lo dicen antes que nosotros. Algunos indicios pueden ser: • Tristeza que se prolonga en el tiempo • Cambios de humor repentinos o irritabilidad • Dolores o malestares físicos sin causa médica clara • Ansiedad o sensación de estar sobrepasado • Dificultades para afrontar lo cotidiano • Pensamientos que se repiten y no dan tregua • Falta de ganas o desinterés por lo que antes generaba placer • Problemas en los vínculos que se vuelven frecuentes o difíciles de manejar Cada proceso es único. A veces alcanza con hacer lugar a una pregunta para que algo comience a moverse.

I help those ages 16+ learn how to navigate life, manage stressors, identify and manage emotions while building coping skills and learning to reframe negative thoughts.

I utilize a positive theoretical orientation which assumes that all individuals possess an innate desire for well-balanced emotional/mental health. I believe a person enters therapy with a strong wish, whether conscious or unconscious, to overcome obstacles and free themselves from constraints that are holding them back. I find that everyone needs a slightly different approach to accomplish these goals, so I adjust in technique for each specific challenge. I truly enjoy the experience of guiding my clients through this process and consider it a privilege to play such an important role in a person's life. “Crying does not indicate that you are weak. Since birth, it has always been a sign that you are alive.” ― Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre
