Sol A Evans
Counselor, MS, NCC, LPC
Verified
Life’s challenges can allow one to believe that their situations are unique to them. Mental illness, addiction, stress, grief, and relationship struggles touch the lives of individuals on a daily basis. As women, we tend to believe that we can carry the weight of the world, but meanwhile, we're struggling on the inside. Are you not feeling like yourself and wondering what happened to the "old" you who used to enjoy life? Perhaps you're struggling with a relationship that isn't bringing you the joy it once did, or maybe it's the struggles of parenting. Are you questioning who you are or what's your purpose?

Inspired Living - Therapy, Coaching & Consulting
Psychologist, PsyD
Verified
I believe in our ability to change, grow, and live truly inspired lives. It can be so hard to find yourself feeling overwhelmed, anxious, worried, & unable to manage your emotions. You start to feel helpless and out of control. Or maybe, you are highly critical of yourself...and sometimes others. You constantly compare yourself to others and usually fall short. You just can't seem to quiet that negative voice in your head. It seems to have taken over and it's causing problems in many areas of your life. At its worst, it even affects your relationships with those you hold most dear.
Christine Hines
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, CADC, LMSW
Verified
Growing up in a household where family members suffered from mental health diagnoses and addiction, I was able to see firsthand the need for more support and counseling for people who experience trauma, grief, and distress in living. Throughout the course of my studies and obtaining an undergraduate degree at Springfield college, graduate degree in mental health at Walden university, and a Delaware board certification in alcohol and drug counseling, i have been able to recognize the concept of beauty for ashes and how cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and motivational interviewing (MI), can change how a person perceives themselves
Samantha Hudson
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Verified
Therapy can be very beneficial for those who are open to new ideas and making changes to remedy the conflicts and struggles that life brings. I am a strong believer that people do best when they come to identify their own issues, needs and goals. The role of the therapist is to help those they work with identify those issues, needs and goals through open and honest discussion. Therapists are trained to assist with identifying thought processes that can cause unpleasant emotions, motivations for behaviors and replacement behaviors as well as coping skills.
