The goal of my practice is to improve the quality of life of my clients and assist them reach their full potential and personal goals. Specializing in family and couple therapy. I also specialize in depression and anxiety. The ideal client will be dedicated to their own treatment and have a strong desire to feel better. Together with my client we work as a team to achieve the therapeutic goals and make life worth living and enjoying. I have been working in a mental health for over a decade and it's my greatest passion in life.

Stress, anxiety, sadness & depression can make our lives difficult & sometimes we need to talk about it. We may need to learn to talk & communicate more effectively to understand each other & relate. As individuals in a relationship or not, we have factors that can contribute & affect our lives that we may not realize. When we make changes to ourselves or changes happen in our lives, it not only affects you, but those around us. Identifying these factors can help bring clarity to you & your family. Changes and life transitions can be tough & can cause depression, anxiety and problems between people. Talking helps change.

I conduct CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy), TF-CBT (trauma-focused CBT), ABA (behavioral therapy), solution-focused therapy, and structural and strategic family therapy. I love learning about neurobiology and the effects that stress has on the brain. Interpersonally, a client coming into session with me can expect to encounter a warm, compassionate, and encouraging soul who has a dry sense of humor and tends to address problems in a straightforward manner.

Are you struggling with everyday life stressors? Perhaps you have anxiety, depression, or just not feeling like your usual self. Do you have racing thoughts, loss of sleep, lack of motivation? Maybe you are telling yourself "life has been more overwhelming than usual, I just want things to be different." You might say you are ok but you feel like you are wearing a mask, and you have a hard time functioning. Are your relationships suffering? Are you feeling like you don't want to get out of bed or go to work? Lost that spiritual connection? Maybe, you want to learn healthier ways to cope. Today you take back your life!

On life’s journey we are constantly growing and developing. Whether young or old, life is a journey that usually entail efforts of trying to understand divine will. We often question our purpose in life, especially during challenging times. To keep it real, in many cultures/communities, such as the African American (Black) community, we might have been taught to either “pray” about our situations, issues, and emotions or “suck it up and keep it moving.” This can create negative energies such as anxiety, depression, anger, guilt, and other mental health issues that need to be addressed in a healthy manner.

I work with clients from early childhood to adulthood across various life stages. We partner to address “big feelings” and behaviors, as well as symptoms of anxiety, depression, ADHD, self-harm, and low self-esteem. My foundational approach is rooted in person-centered and strengths-based principles. With younger clients, I leverage techniques from play and creative arts therapies, as well as mindfulness tools. For adolescents and adults, I employ an eclectic toolkit with methods from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Design Thinking to guide the therapeutic process.

Hello! My name is Tanner Craun. I am a Licensed Master of Social Work with 5 years of experience in various areas of the social work field. Currently, I work primarily with adolescents and young adults, but am open to all ages. As a young parent I am passionate about helping the younger generation to develop the skills needed to manage their mental health on a day to day basis, and to partner with parents in helping their children succeed. I would love to use my experience to help you build the skills needed to manage the ups and downs of life, or support your child in achieving success!

When working with clients, I use an eclectic approach, which means that I am schooled in many theoretical orientations and have mastered an infinite number of skills. I draw from the knowledge I possess to adapt my approach to the person or people in front of me. I believe that the most important part of the therapeutic process is the relationship between the therapist and the client/clients. Building rapport and establishing a relationship based on acceptance, empathy, honesty, safety and trust with my clients is my first priority as the therapist. One of my innate skills is being non-judgmental.

Living with symptoms of poor sleep, unhealthy relationships, challenges at work, or a critical internal voice that constantly beats you up leads to a poor quality of life. Left untreated, these situations will have a physical, emotional, spiritual and financial impact on you. When you need to improve your skills to cope with stress and challenges in life, Gavia Life Care Center is here to provide professional mental health counseling that is accessible and timely.

Hi, I'm Chaynna Clark, a Licensed Mental Health Therapist. In my work with children adolescents, I've witnessed the resilience and strength of young minds. Helping them navigate the complexities of growing up in today's world is a privilege. For adults, I've seen the transformative power of self-discovery and healing. My goal is to create a safe and non-judgmental space for all my clients, where they can explore their thoughts and feelings at their own pace. Beyond my professional role, I'm passionate about breaking down the stigma surrounding mental health issues.

A Licensed Social Worker with 13 years of experience in mental health counseling, crisis management and mental health assessments. I hold a Master’s Degree in Social Work with a concentration in Mental Health and School Social Work. I use a generalist practice approach, while incorporating solution focused therapy, client-centered therapy, cognitive behavior therapy and spiritual therapy. I believe, at least for most people, a deep-seated sense of meaning and purpose in life, together with a sense of belonging, is of foundational importance to psychological well-being and wholeness.

I am at capacity and unable to accept new clients at this time.
