Hi I'm Christy. Do you sometimes find that you are your own worst enemy? Finding fault with everything you do, never feeling like you're living up to expectations? My goal in therapy is to help you turn your inner critic into a compassionate voice that can comfort you when you're down and give you the inspiration you need to reach your goals. We will work together to help you get to know yourself so that you will be able to care for yourself, identify your strengths, and give yourself the encouragement you need to succeed. I will also help you learn how to be more resilient in the face of obstacles so that you will be better able to find new solutions.

***Please schedule appointments on the hour*** My name is Mike, and I am a fully licensed psychotherapist dedicated to helping individuals excel in their personal lives, relationships, and professions. As a therapist, I am passionate about guiding others through the complex range of emotions that are part of the human experience. Often, these challenges arise unexpectedly, leaving behind fragments to piece together. That’s why my practice is grounded in compassion, validation, and providing a safe haven for healing and growth. I firmly believe that no one is meant to simply “move on”; rather, my goal is to support clients through life’s trials, helping them recognize their inherent worth, develop healthy coping strategies, and regain confidence as they transition from surviving to truly thriving. In my virtual practice, I have had the privilege of working with a diverse clientele since its inception. This includes couples and individuals grappling with depression, anxiety, and everyday challenges. I also have extensive experience working with veterans from the armed services and first responders. Drawing from my own 20+ years as a volunteer first responder, I understand the mental strains, post-traumatic stress, and lasting effects of traumatic events that many of these individuals face. In such cases, I employ a thoughtful blend of multicultural, psychoanalytic, and behavioral therapies to help clients assess their current situation, envision their desired future, and chart actionable steps toward it—all within a secure, validating, and non-judgmental environment. I eagerly anticipate our meeting and the opportunity to understand you better, guiding you towards a more fulfilling life journey.

Darleena's style is warm and professional and, at the same time, passionate and committed to you and your relationships. Darleena focuses on personal and spiritual growth to over-come the fears, regrets, and excuses that keep us stuck, depressed, anxious and unable to ACT. Many of us have made choices based on fear instead of purpose and hope. As a result , we live lives that we never intended for ourselves. Our relationships, our families, our careers, our lifestyles are very unsatisfying, at best, and damaging and crippling at worst. This marginal existence is not what you intended; nor was it intended for you . You were meant for MORE; more gratitude, more love, more happiness, more peace.

Feeling like you can't quite keep it together? Sometimes we get overwhelmed with the stresses in life and need help sorting them out. Maybe you've just hit a low point or feeling overly worried and anxious. Talking to a therapist has helped many people who are feeling the same way. The last few years have been more than difficult, and people are struggling. I help people figure out what's working well for them and what's not. Then we explore together the many strengths and skills you already have and can use to overcome the problems life throws at us. I teach new skills and introduce new tools that you can use to feel better and get your life back on track. I have many years of experience working with people with depression and anxiety as well as bipolar and schizophrenia. I am accepting of varying types of diversity and use solution focused methods with compassion and caring to create and meet the therapeutic goals that are unique to you. Starting therapy can be hard but it can change your life. I would love to work with you to start that process and look forward to meeting you.
