"Clients matter to me! As I am sure I am not the only one who feels that way, it seems that so much gets in the way in people finding a therapist who takes insurance and offers an alignment with so many different populations. The impact of trauma, stigma toward mental health,addictions, the LGBTQ+ community,infidelity can reinforce dysfunctional coping, self loathing and sometimes self harm. It can keep people stuck. I understand this on a personal and professional level.Therapy's not easy and not the most ideal at times, but can help if you team up with someone who will earn your trust. I want to help those who want and need support"

"I AM NOT TAKING NEW CLIENTS AT THIS TIME. People who come to me are seeking a new way of managing their life and need encouragement. You determine the pace. Together we will see the beauty in your growth. My counseling philosophy is summed up in my belief that; you are free to make choices but must temper this freedom with personal responsibility. You are shaped both by your past as well as who you desire to become in the future. Your social and cultural environment also shapes you tremendously. You will make mistakes but can learn to correct these, and regardless, can learn to love yourself."

"For two years I worked as a case manager for both adolescents and adults. In the past year my focus has been mostly on working with adolescents directly as well as conducting numerous family sessions in a School-Based Therapy setting. I recognize that often times the system is set up to let people of color fail and hope to provide an inspiration to colored populations specifically that they can break the odds no matter what."

"I have genuine empathy and compassion for individuals, marriages, children and families that are hurting. My practice was established for the purpose of restoring and sustaining wholeness in the lives of all people. Such wholeness is directed toward helping clients achieve more satisfying and productive lives in the contexts of their family, church, community and work place. This mission is accomplished in an environment that is grace filled, secure, caring, confidential, professional, and respectful of each person's life journey. I offer my services to all who seek personal and relational wholeness"

"We all go through difficult times. Sometimes we go through circumstances that put us in emotional crucibles that need to be nurtured, explored and worked through. Are you feeling overwhelmed or dominated by a circumstance in your life? Are you in a circumstance with your spouse or children that seems to be taking a lot of energy, consequently causing other areas in your life to be compromised? I specialize working with individuals and families in transition. I also have significant experience working with individuals that have issues with addictions, depression, anxiety, and spiritual conflict."

"Hi everyone! Thanks for taking time to reading through my profile. I help frazzled people get their lives back. I work most often with disconnected couples and restless entrepreneurs stifled by overwhelming feelings of stress, anxiety, and depression. When I got into this profession, I realized that everyone on the planet needs a safe place to go where they can be completely themselves...and say anything. At times we need to chat with someone who's not part of our family or friend circles, someone with training and skills to navigate through confusing thoughts, emotions, relationships, careers, and matters of faith."

"At this time of year, many of you might feel depressed, anxious, or a combination of both. Like a storm, life can become dark and cold with unexpected outcomes. These outcomes leave you overwhelmed and spiraling out of control. I've been there and I am here to walk on this journey alongside you. Freedom and LIFE is a phone call away. You can find the peace and happiness that you desire in this season. Whether I'm talking about you, your child, or your significant other, IT'S TIME TO TAKE STEPS TOWARDS HEALING."

"My style is client-centered, which simply means that we start where you are at. I see my role as your therapist as a partner on a journey towards health, wellness and happiness. My approach is one that believes you are the expert of your life, and I encourage you to trust yourself and follow through on your intuition. I am very interactive and give feedback about choices, rather than giving lots of advice."

"Finding a therapist where you can connect, trust, and experience real and lasting change is often a daunting process.

Using a variety of modalities, including EMDR, play therapy, solution-focused brief therapy, and CBT, we will work together to design and implement a treatment plan that is as unique as you are. I am committed to my clients and care deeply about helping them achieve positive outcomes through therapy."

"Do you find yourself stressed or overwhelmed, struggling to feel calm or make choices? Have you lost your "spark" - the motivation to get up & go, or the interest you used to have in activities & people? Sometimes depression, anxiety, traumatic experiences, the stress of coping with day-to-day life, or the confusion of figuring out identity or beliefs can leave us feeling vulnerable & uncertain, or maybe feeling nothing at all. I believe all humans have inner strengths & abilities; but, sometimes life causes us to lose belief in our strengths & abilities. "

"You feel disconnected, lonely and anxious. The people and activities that once brought you joy, now seem empty and unfulfilling. Others seem to be happy, but that same happiness feels beyond your reach. You recognize the need for change, to connect more deeply and more truly to who and what you really are. You are ready for your mind and body to be at rest in this chaotic world and for your youthful, expressive and creative nature to once again flourish. "

"I see myself as a guide to assist you in your journey of soul transformation, and believe this journey must be grounded in mother earth and daily human life.

I welcome all people from all walks of life and paths and will allow your therapy journey to unfold organically, at your pace and with your power. But I will give you gentle nudges from time to time, if needed. Therapy is hard and fun and beautiful and painful. I hold safe space. "

"Why me? I take a direct approach to helping you experiment with changes you need to make to get your life on track and feel better. I'll ask questions, challenge, probe. I'll hold up a mirror so you can see yourself, then make decisions from your core. I'll help you find your true self, whom you may meet for the very first time. If you're ready to take a deeper look, I'm all about integration, treating the whole person. It's a transformative process that takes time. Have you reached that place of choicelessness, where you are compelled to transfigure?"

"Trauma and other developmental wounds often show up as anxiety, depression, personality disorders, and a variety of diagnosis. At Village of Kairos, our therapists are master-doctoral practitioners specializing in trauma-focused therapies and interventions so that our clients find hope, help and how-to's in order to build a life worth living."

"Life is too short to be anyone but yourself. If you're not spending your life the way you'd like to, let's talk about it. You don't have to feel so stuck & unfulfilled. You spend 24/7 with you, isn't it time to stop compromising on what you want? Happy lives & relationships aren't just what happen to other people. You know that wise inner voice of yours? The one quietly telling you that things don't have to be this way? That's what we'll work to amplify in our work together with high compassion, low B.S."
