Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Verified
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a background in working with various ages and populations, as well as experience with processing and managing issues such as: Mental illness, depression, anxiety,
trauma
, grief, stress management, life transitions, and many others.
Engaging in therapy can be a decision that takes a lot of strength. It can often include the processing of what isn’t working in your life whether it is depression, traumatic experiences, or anxiety. However, this process can also include recognizing your strengths, purpose, and aspects of your life that may be working well. Knowing this is a journey you don’t have to travel alone and because each person is unique and every therapeutic relationship is different, I incorporate a variety of evidence-based counseling approaches to establish a plan to navigate challenges and work toward your goals.

Whitney Jerkins
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Verified
Our lives are too short to give in to bad relationships, let past or current
trauma
control us, or to allow anxious/angry thoughts to consume us.
I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. Most people view therapy as a one sided conversation, with minimal opportunity for interaction. I want to help you accomplish whatever solutions and life changes you are seeking while enjoying the process as much as possible. Simply put, therapy does not always have to be a painful experience. Reaching out to a therapist can be intimidating, but I hope you will take a moment (and maybe a couple of deep breaths) to call and see how I can help you.

Helga Riley
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
Verified
My primary focus is working with clients who have experienced
trauma
.
In navigating life, there is some good news and some bad news. The bad news is that suffering is not always avoidable, which you probably already know. The good news, however, is that we can find healing. People walk through life with unhealthy behavioral patterns, emotional injuries, unproductive thoughts, and other burdens. I help people release themselves from these burdens through the counseling process. My goal in therapy is to build a strong relationship of trust with you, help you understand what you are experiencing, build healthy boundaries, and develop coping skills to minimize the impact of future hurts.
