Toni-Marie Bryan
Associate Professional Counselor, LAPC, MA
Verified
**Currently, I am not accepting new clients.** It can be daunting to reach out when struggling with overwhelming feelings of distress. Often, our most difficult struggles go unsaid with those that we are close to for fear of stigma or isolation. If you are reading this, you have already taken the most important step. I believe that people are resilient, and have the ability to care for themselves, but often, the ways that we seek to alleviate pain and suffering cause more of the same. Alternatively, our feelings of stagnancy, loneliness, and hopelessness can sometimes be too overpowering to work through alone.

We all face distress in our lives at some point. Often times we struggle with understanding how we came to be in this state of confusion or emotional pain. With an objective and gentle approach, counseling can help you uncover potentially hidden reasons for some of what might be creating this distress. Counseling can also offer you new insight and new skills to address your specific challenge. I offer you a safe, confidential place in which you can share your deepest pain and propose your most challenging questions. Begin the process of growth & healing today. You are worth it!

Trauma, stress, betrayal, loneliness, depression and anxiety all lead to psychological distress which impacts our minds, bodies and souls. I specialize in working with adults who struggle with anxiety, depression, bipolar, trauma and abuse recovery, and grief and loss. Our intimate relationships are crucial in promoting our wellbeing, yet sometimes those relationships become the source of our greatest pain. I also specialize in working with intimate relationship issues including infertility, communication, infidelity, divorce recovery, co-parenting, and blending of families.
Richard C Morley
Marriage & Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT
Verified
Marriage or couples counseling is my specialty. My sole purpose is to help couples stay together. I help people create a strong foundation of trust, respect and commitment in their relationships. As clients rebuild this foundation they learn how to better express their love for each other. Couples will improve their communication skills with rational decision making, as opposed to destructive fighting. Couples must become more deliberate in their approach to each other by prioritizing their energy and time for each other. Treatment averages between 10 to 20 sessions over 6 months. When both individuals engage, the therapy is very successful.

Catherine has years of experience in providing play therapy, along with CBT and mindfulness, to children and adolescents who have experienced trauma. She understands the importance of managing family systems and, therefore, aims to include parents so that skills practiced in treatment can be reinforced in the home.
