I co-create sacred spaces for Black Women to be heard and supported. As the "strong" friend, the "fixer", "the One" to everyone in your life who is holding it together for you? Life can be overwhelming at times, and we go through phases where we need additional support. You want someone to be with you and provide the understanding, support, guidance, and encouragement you need in order explore & overcome the challenges you are facing.

Hi, I'm Mia and I'm so glad you're here. I believe that mental wellness is attainable for everyone who is willing to do the work. Like cultivating a beautiful garden, although the work can be difficult and sometimes messy, the results are beautiful and miraculous. Through the use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with the foundation of Positive and Self Psychology we will take a closer look at your beliefs, behaviors, and experiences with the goal of increasing health and getting rid of what is no longer serving you.

"Connection is why we're here; it is what gives purpose and meaning to our lives."--Brene Brown. My relationship with clients is the most important aspect of my practice, and my goal is to provide a space for clients to feel heard, supported, and accepted while they navigate life's challenges. As an artist, I understand that words often fail to truly communicate the intensity of emotions that accompany tragedy and struggles in life. So, as a therapist, I enjoy accompanying talk therapy with creative, expressive, and mindfulness practices for increased insight and emotional expression to assist clients on their healing journey.

If you feel out of control and struggle with impulsive choices, I can help. I use the DBT to help you stop destructive behaviors, increase your probability of positive emotions and decrease your probability of negative emotions. I have 10 years of experience helping clients reduce or stop suicidal, self harm, sexual acting out, drug or alcohol and toxic relationship behaviors. My goal is to help my clients reach a life worth living, meet life on life's terms, enjoy successes and negotiate problems with self respect and confidence.

I specialize in psychological evaluations to address mood/behavioral disorders, learning disabilties, ADHD, and parental issues. My focus in therapy is in helping the client develop a stronger sense of self-sufficiency and wholeness. It takes a lot of courage to come to therapy and be vulnerable, and I strive to honor this. Therapy works best when there is a strong therapeutic alliance and clear goals; therefore, these are the main focus of the initial therapy sessions. I have worked with a variety of clients from childhood to middle adulthood, and through relationship and consistency am able to help clients make valuable and lasting change.

I received my MA in Counseling Psychology from Indiana Wesleyan University. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), specializing in working with men and women who are having difficulty balancing life and a variety of struggles (ranging from addictions, relationships, work, parenting, depression, anxiety, PTSD, etc.). I work with survivors of sexual abuse, domestic violence, and complex sexual trauma; sex trafficking or commercial sexual exploitation; substance abuse; families impacted by porn or infidelity; and veterans or first responders who are having difficulty managing the impact of their work.

I work diligently to provide a safe place for individuals and couples seeking to address issues such as relationship dysfunction, depression, anxiety, addiction, codependency, and trauma, especially where these issues negatively impact a client's ability to maintain a sense of reverence for self or connection and intimacy with others. I discover with each client his or her strengths and ways to utilize these strengths to facilitate growth and healing. I combine a knowledge of psychotherapeutic strategies for healing with spiritual principles to weave a pathway for growth and healing for each precious soul.

I have worked with children, teens, and adults for 20 years and am honored that each person has chosen to share their life with me. I conduct psychotherapy/counseling sessions with individuals, couples, and families. I strictly adhere to the Social Worker's Code of Ethics. I will meet you where you would like to start in this process, joining with you to set achievable therapeutic goals in a supportive, caring, and non-judgmental atmosphere.

As a clinician at Counsel Connections (formerly named Thriveworks Counseling), it is my goal to help clients find hope, healing and wholeness. I specialize in working with women who have trauma/abuse/PTSD histories. Anxiety and depression are major focuses of the work I do. Additionally, I specialize in the adoption field, serving birth mothers/families, adoptive families, and adoptees.

As a therapist, my main goal is to empower people to make positive changes and improve relationships. I also have a passion for helping families affected by addiction. In practice I use person centered therapy techniques as a basis for building the counseling relationship which will create a safe space for you to work on accomplishing goals. I cater therapy to individual client needs using evidence based approaches to therapy such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, as well as motivational interviewing, mindfulness based therapy, and solution focused therapies to help clients identify and overcome roadblocks to change.

I enjoy helping overfunctioners live a more balanced life. Another way to think of it is if you struggle with perfectionism and overachieving to the point of stress/exhaustion or anxiety/depression, I can help you learn to love and accept yourself as you are and be okay with using self-care and asking for help when you need it! I am also passionate about working with teens preparing for or adjusting to college and helping people manage tough life transitions, overcome self-criticism, learn when and how to say ‘no’ (set boundaries) so that you can start saying ‘yes’ to yourself, and work through past traumas.

I am a licensed master social worker(LMSW) with specialized training in mental health. I have various experiences as a clinician working with people with serious mental illness(SMI) to Co-occurring disorders. I also have experience with people with mood disorders and personality disorders. My clinical and research interests are 1) how culture plays a role in one’s life, 2) how to reconstruct relationships through reconstructing one’s unresolved trauma, and 3) strengthen one’s resilience to cope with life difficulties.

You are someone who loves Jesus, loves people and works hard. You want to fulfill God’s purpose and plan for your life and need a little help navigating. You want clarity and direction. It doesn’t matter if you work in business, education, health care, science and technology, sales, entertainment, law, a religious institution or as a stay-at-home mom—you may still need some help with self-esteem and/or confidence; improving health; working through conflict in relationships; navigating marriage and family; pressing into personal growth; or making career & educational decisions. The Healing Project can help.

Choosing to enter into therapy is a courageous decision that I deeply honor and respect. It says that you believe in your capacity for growth and healing. I am here to facilitate your healing experience by providing a safe, authentic, non-judgmental space for us to get to the heart of what is keeping you stuck in your life or relationships. I work integratively, blending various therapeutic modalities to support clients in addressing their unique needs. I am formally trained in psychodynamic therapy and use it as the foundation for the work we will do together.

I provide therapy to individuals, couples, and families. My approach for therapy is to provide you a safe place to navigate life, process, heal, and grow. Therapy is a form of help that addresses various kinds of issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma, difficulties with life transitions, and relational and family conflicts. The process of therapy includes developing skills to address your emotions, thoughts, core beliefs, and behaviors. Therapy provides the opportunity to gain insight and a better understanding of your personal, social, professional, and spiritual identity.

Do you struggle with putting everyone's needs before your own? Does your anxiety interfere with you achieving your goals in life. Do you have unresolved issues that impact your relationships and ability to trust others? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then I would love to work with you. I can help you develop the skills necessary for you to become a priority in your own life and process and resolve issues that serve as barriers to you living your optimal life.

As an Asian-American, I grew up in a community where mental health was highly stigmatized and seldom talked about. I understand how difficult it can be for people to even have the language to describe their suffering. I also understand how important cultural factors play in the way we contextualize our life experiences and choices.

My passion is helping individuals who are searching for change. If you are ready to explore your relationships and history, overcome obstacles and memories that have held you back, and find skills to propel you forward then you are in the right place. I'm ready to meet you where you are and assist you in moving towards where you want to be! I believe anyone willing to explore and learn - can grow, and ultimately achieve mental and emotional wellness!
