"After many years as a psychologist I know one thing for certain: the foundation of therapy is a relationship built on trust, openness, and mutual respect. I see myself as a guide and partner in the change process. I have experience treating the full range of adult problems and have always worked with a culturally diverse population. I have particular interest in creativity, women's issues, and adult development throughout the life cycle. I have specialized training in addictions, codependence, and eating disorders. My therapeutic orientation is broadly psychodynamic, along with EMDR and mindfulness-based approaches."

"I am present and relational in my work. I believe each person is innately their own expert and I am here to help that person tap into their own truths. I get to know a client from a place of non-judgement. I listen to what symptoms are troubling my clients and together we develop goals that build upon strengths that my client already has. I use the appropriate therapeutic interventions that fit my client's needs. I draw from elements of Cognitive Behavioral, DBT, Expressive arts, Psychodynamic, Client centered, Family systems and Humanistic styles in my work and EMDR."

"My approach consists of assisting people in identifying and exploring the stressors, issues, or losses that are causing pain, in order to begin to address them. I have a warm, direct communication style and will support you in developing a practice of self-care and self-reflection, while also implementing practical solutions, and coping skills. Building a healthy curiosity about your behavior, thoughts, and feelings will be encouraged in order to achieve a better understanding of the conscious and unconscious influences that perpetuate difficulties and conflicts. Deepening a self-understanding strengthens an ability to build healthier, more satisfying relationships with others and with yourself."

"I have a diverse practice working with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families, dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, eating disorders, parenting issues, adoption, relationship issues and more. It can be difficult to see ourselves from the outside. Therapy is a collaborative process that opens up space to see ourselves from many angles, provides different ways of understanding our lives and inspires new ways of addressing our problems."

"I believe life challenges, although difficult to navigate, are opportunities to ignite profound transformation & potent healing. I am passionate about supporting you with cracking through self-limiting beliefs, old stories, & trauma."

"I invite clients who are dedicated to self understanding and self development.People often travel through life without incident and then hit a difficult patch, life skills that have been used successfully are now not working. I can help you with understanding this potential dilemna.Reaching midlife oftens brings one to question his/her existence and what the meaning of life is for him/her. I work with people on these existential issues."

"I support children and youth utilizing art, play, creative movement and sand tray to explore and heal social and emotional challenges. Issues related to self esteem, anxiety, depression, physical and sexual abuse, neglect, medical trauma, grief/loss, family conflict, and sensory integration issues. I also support adults dealing with illness and the impact of medical interventions and the ongoing issues of living with long term challenges that impact day to day living and relationships."

"My name is Keely Burke, and I'm a therapist and supervisor at Center for Creative Growth. I believe that each client relationship is unique, and I see my role as co-creating a healing space that assists you in living your most authentic, creative, and satisfying life. It is deeply inspiring and moving for me to assist you on your sacred journey of healing. In addition to individual, couples, family, teen, and child therapy, I have created a new, ongoing women's therapy group using the arts and experiential therapies that begins in May. See the "Groups" section below for more details."

"I am most interested in helping people make the most of their lives. Good relationships and/or a fulfilling career bring us the greatest gratification. My focus will be to help you to achieve your life goals whatever they may be. I have been a specialist in the treatment of Trauma and PTSD for over 30 years and help people cope with difficulties with anxiety, depression, loneliness and grief or others that are more diffuse ... feeling lousy and not sure why ."

"I really enjoy working with people who think outside the box, who like to push against the status quo, or who make alternative lifestyle choices. I work with youth, adults, couples and families. "

"Would you like to know yourself better and more deeply? To be able to move beyond painful and frustrating patterns in your your feelings, relationships, and work? Sometimes it's clear why we feel and act how we do: ecstatic about a new romance, upset about a professional disappointment, awash with grief following the loss of a loved one. Other times feelings and behaviors may surprise you—a nagging anxiety, a lingering sadness, memories of past experiences that you thought you'd left behind, a sense that your relationship with a partner could be deeper, that work could be more fulfilling even as you have success along the way."

"Are you wanting to get back on track or maybe find a more satisfying path in your life? Do you feel stuck or want to lift your depression? We can work together to understand the obstacles, as you develop new insights and a clearer path to your happiness. Emphasizing attunement to your needs, I would like to help you discover your potential for change and grow in ways that you feel authentically yourself. Through this process, couples as well as individuals can see improvements in their relationships. As a child therapist, I can also help in coparenting issues."

"Dealing with stress is part of running your business. But abusing substances to cope was NOT a part of the plan. Every entrepreneur juggles demands. Getting funding. Managing people. And, certainly, taking care of your mental health. But deliverables and critical milestones are unrelenting - meetings, managing partnerships, and showing positive returns. Your family tries to support you, but they don’t really understand your struggles. Clearly, you don’t want to go back to using. A relapse could be fatal. You want to show up clean for business and family. You want success. How do you balance all this?"

"My focus as a bilingual English-Spanish therapist is to help clients overcome psychological barriers in order to feel more confident, empowered and at ease with themselves. I can teach you in a collaborative style how to cope during times of stress, manage anxiety and improve your mood. I provide clients with effective skills to set realistic goals and change your behavior, improve your relationships and bring greater satisfaction into your life. "

"Having a trusting relationship where you can express yourself, be understood and engage authentically is at the heart of what I offer. Therapy is about feeling better, moving towards one’s goals and developing deeper awareness. I work with people who are looking for support with self development, relationships, trauma, anxiety, depression, anger, stress, life transitions, adolescence, competition and performance. "

"Are you looking for help in dealing with emotions, like anger, fear, sadness or overwhelm? Are you going through life transitions such as having a baby, the beginning or end of a relationship, a move, or a career change? In my 25 years of counseling, I have had the honor of working with clients seeking to improve their lives by understanding themselves better, learning new skills, and improving their relationships. I believe that everyone has the wisdom inside to know what is true and meaningful, yet it is not always easy to make progress on our own."

"People come to therapy because they want something in their lives to be different. We hear that we can only change ourselves, yet even if we "know" the why or how or who of it, we can't always budge "it" on our own. My job is to help navigate the terrain, to make sense of the landscape, and to be with you as you reencounter your obstacles to living and loving your life."

"For over 30 years I have been a licensed MFT, offering compassionate, competent and convenient therapeutic services to individuals, couples, families and adolescents. You'll find me supportive and understanding, offering questions and reflections to guide you in handling your challenges and making changes you desire. I offer a safe place to explore your concerns about relationships (traditional and non-traditional), transitions, job concerns, separations, stepfamilies, addictions, depression, parenting, and stress. Our work together can help you improve your communication skills, better the quality of your relationships, increase self-esteem, and learn how to set and follow through with goals."

"My approach to therapy emphasizes self knowledge, empowerment and insight helping move towards a more integral, meaningful and gratifying life. It is with passion and kindness that I witness the healing transformation a person goes through in the therapeutic relationship. Originally from Brazil, I speak English, Spanish, and Portuguese working with clients who speak these languages. Three theories permeate my work: the Integral theory of Ken Wilber, Psychodynamic theory, and Hakomi. I integrate into the analysis the physical, mental, emotional, and social parts of the self (Integral) in a mindfulness-based, body inclusive, and experiential perspective (Hakomi)."

"Are you feeling stuck on a past relationship or experience? Finding it hard to cultivate compassion for yourself? Yearning for more creativity in your life? Would you like to develop an openness to growth and problem-solving, or a fresh approach to parenting? If any of these concerns resonate with you, and/or you are looking for ways to manage your depression, anxiety, or responses to a traumatic experience, I may be able to work together with you to find answers and new ways of living."
