Hi, my name is Elli and I am here to help you on your counseling journey. Sometimes our brains can feel overcrowded by thoughts and emotions and we need an outside eye to help in making sense of the chaos. Everyone deserves a space where they can be wholly themselves and process life's stressors, this is the space I strive to provide within session. I have a passion for working with both teens and adults in navigating life's transitions and anxieties.

Finding a therapist can be a daunting task. I believe that the therapist-client relationship is very important and is key to productive therapeutic work. I work with depression, anxiety, and PTSD. Many times the pressures of life will lead clients to seek counseling to deal with relationship and family issues. I am a co-occurring disorder therapist which means I also have credentials in addiction. Many of my clients may have a mental health issue as well as an addictive disorder. I work with couples as well as GLBT clients. I return all phone calls.

My name is Mekenzie (she/her), and I am a Health at Every Size® and fat-positive therapist and Certified Nutritionist. Like many in this field, my call to this work came from my own long journey with mental health, body, and food, and the life-saving discovery of the fat-positive world, Intuitive Eating, Body Trust®, and social justice/anti-racism/anti-colonialism work that helped me realize my body was not the problem. I do this work now in hopes to walk alongside others as they discover their body is not the problem either, and other truths on their unique path to healing. (www.mekenziesutton.com)

Are you heartbroken? Anxious? Angry? All of the above and more? You are welcome here. You may have a relationship that is falling apart or make the same bad decisions again and again. You may be overwhelmed by an overly critical mind that says you are undeserving, less than, or too much. Perhaps you take care of others and forget to take care of yourself. You long for companionship and have a deep desire to matter, to belong, and to be respected.

Hi there, My name is Jolene and I am a co-occurring disorders and trauma specialist, level 200 and 300 yoga instructor, sound healer, and domestic violence advocate. I am 40 years old and have been in the counseling/healing profession for almost 20 years. I would love to help you explore your identity and relationship with substances, trauma and other issues. I use a variety of techniques and modalities to explore and restore energy and your focus in life. Please reach out if you are feeling lost, empty or are in need of support. "You are enough". My work here on Psychology Today is private pay - under the title of life coaching.

As a holistic psychotherapist and healer, I have 30 years of experience working with adults who have suffered trauma (acute and chronic), and childhood abuse of all kinds. I work with the full range of dissociative disorders, PTSD and the relationship disturbances that result. As a depth therapist, I also pursue the root cause of the issues causing pain which means we collaborate together to address the client's entire life span and family of origin.

As your counselor, I will listen to you and your story without judgment, working alongside you with your best interests in mind. My goal is to provide you with the support you need and help you achieve your goals for healing and restoration. My hope is that through our sessions you will see an improvement in your quality of life, and an increase in your joy and freedom. I hope to help you create your own methods of dealing more effectively with the life you live and become more successful at handling the challenges you will face in the future.

I am a relationship-based, trauma-informed therapist with a holistic, creative, and embodied approach to healing. I deeply believe in the interconnectedness of mind, soul, and body and it is through these channels we often experience pain, harm, frustration, blockages, and sometimes just plain boredom.

Therapies that focus on brain change, heal symptoms more rapidly and get to the deepest part of the issue. I work from a positive perspective that is both challenging and supportive simultaneously. Some people come to me to grow in areas of peak performance and others come to break free from the gridlock they experience in their significant relationships. Many people are stuck in a depressive or anxious cycle that doesn't allow them to be authentic in how they engage the world. I have been a therapist for over 20 years and I love it.

I am passionate about assisting individuals and families in achieving joy and satisfaction. I have special expertise with psychological assessment for many diagnoses, with short term cognitive behavioral therapy, ADHD coaching, and therapy for anxiety. I work with children and teens in improving school performance, life skills, and family tranquility. Parents often work with me to enhance and strengthen their relationship and parenting skills, adults come to me for help with ADHD, anxiety, depression, spiritual issues and stress, and seniors often seek help navigating the aging process.

My practice primarily serves adult women and focuses on the difficulties we face in today's fast paced society; balancing our careers, life transitions, parenting, partnership, caregiver roles, as well as our own sexuality, self-esteem and self-identity. It's a lot! Especially, when faced with societal pressures and expectations of ourselves that may be driving us to exhaustion. I provide a strength-based approach to help you process, identify sustainable coping skills for stress and anxiety reduction, and develop assertive communication skills in order to set boundaries and find a more balanced approach going forward.
