"Finding a therapist who can help you feel happier is a crucial part of change. I work with individuals and couples who want a trusting and collaborative relationship. Whether you moved, had a breakup, had a career issues, had a loss, or deal with lifelong anxiety/depression; now is the moment you are seeking support. It is my privilege to lift clients up through those life hurdles. I work with clients with a wide range of concerns and from diverse cultural backgrounds. I use a holistic and multicultural approach with every client, to better understand their unique experiences and provide treatment that is effective for them."

"Becoming a first time mom and/or growing your family can be the most transformative event of a woman’s life. The transition can be overwhelming physically and mentally. Women often think to themselves, "What did I get myself into?" Whether it’s dealing with fertility issues, grief for your old life, the trauma of birth, managing the challenges of a newborn, older siblings, or infant colic, there are many factors that can affect the transition. The anxiety and depression that come with these transitions are a common part of the pre and postpartum experience. "

"At Creative Life Counseling Services, I strive to provide mindful and competent healing for my clients. My primary focus is helping you to find fulfillment in your life, work, and relationships. By working together in therapy, you and I will identify productive ways to create fulfillment. We will explore ineffective cycles of destructive behavior and strive to make change. I will provide the support and structure you need to see the extent of the control you have over your own happiness."

"Are you struggling in your relationship? Do you want to live a more authentic and fulfilling life? Do you want to discover how you can live in a way that improves your sense of well-being? I provide a supportive environment in which you can explore your experiences and overcome barriers that prevent you from living the life you want to live."

"Often times the first step to feeling better is simply the act of being heard and feeling truly understood. I have found continual reward in being able to help people navigate the most challenging and stressful times of their lives. I strongly believe the quality of the therapeutic relationship directly effects an individual's healing process, and thus my first goal is to develop and maintain a safe, open, empathetic and trusting dynamic with each client I meet. My style of counseling is active, supportive, direct and non-judgmental, while my approach is uniquely tailored to meet the specific needs of those I work with."

"Finding a therapist can feel overwhelming. You probably sense that it’s finally time to reach out for help, but feel unsure of where to begin. Perhaps you feel uncertain if there is anyone out there who can understand, let alone help. I believe that the strength of the therapeutic relationship directly impacts an individual’s capacity for change, and thus my first priority is to cultivate a safe, open, and compassionate relationship with each of my clients. My style of therapy is supportive, lively, and direct. My goal is to help you learn to trust yourself and feel less weighed down by self doubt. "

"Do you want to gain insight about yourself and your relationships? Are you looking for strategies to manage painful emotions, stress, or anxiety? Many of us are never taught how to prioritize our mental health, or we feel stuck when we encounter difficulties. I view therapy as a tool to learn more about yourself, develop healthy coping mechanisms, and gain more agency in your life. I attempt to foster a genuine, collaborative environment to investigate outdated patterns and make steps towards your goals. I have a strong commitment to supporting my clients and understanding the unique values and needs of each person I work with."

"Therapy can be a space to explore, understand, and change your life, and I strive to be a helping hand in that process. By providing a warm, empathic, and understanding space, I help my clients gain insight into their inner worlds, learn to accept what they see, and change their lives for the better. Whether it’s a life transition, a lifelong pain, or a recent loss, I help my clients find the tools and self-awareness they need to navigate their lives."

"Life's transitions can create stress, uncertainty, and disconnection from yourself and those around you. As a clinical psychologist, my goal is to help you identify your strengths, build your sense of self and create goals that bring direction, fulfillment, and self-acceptance. I provide psychotherapy for adults and couples and my areas of expertise include: depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, women's health issues, grief, life transitions, and relational concerns. I also work with other health related issues such as cancer, post-partum depression, fertility issues, and coping with chronic medical conditions."

"Whether you are looking for support during a life transition or would like to find more effective methods for coping with overwhelming emotions such as loneliness, shame, or self-doubt-I will work together with you to explore new ways of thinking and behaving. As a Professional Counselor and Art Therapist, I will work collaboratively with you to foster a safe therapeutic environment to process past and present traumas, stressors, and relationship concerns."

"I am FULL right now. Check on me in December and I’ll likely have space. Looking for a therapist requires a leap of faith: that someone out there can actually understand, let alone help. Maybe you sense you need to make a change, but how to move forward is unclear. Or maybe you are going through something right now that feels too heavy to shoulder alone. In either case, therapy can be a place to find your footing. When we first meet, I will listen carefully to your story, then together we will identify what carries the potential to help. I offer a compassionate relationship you can rely on."

"As a practicing artist, (30 years as a designer, visual artist and entrepreneur) I have a particular understanding of issues and situations affecting working creative professionals and people who identify as artists. My goal is to serve the creative community, as well as other clients, with mental health and wellness services. I work towards gaining a cultural, societal, and situational understanding of each persons' attitudes, beliefs, and desires in order to create awareness and therapeutic change. My approach is humanistic, and includes a variety of techniques. I hope that my encounters with clients can be transformational, not a transaction."

"I am experienced in working with people who are dealing with a variety of issues including trauma, depression, anxiety, loss, acculturation, chronic medical problems, relationship problems, academic issues, and adjustment to other life stressors. Each individual requires a unique approach when seeking help in coping with problems of daily living, and I am dedicated to creating a collaborative therapy environment that is based on safety and mutual respect. I tend to be direct and interactive in therapy using an integrative approach and work to empower clients to access their strengths in coping with life issues. "

"I am passionate about creating meaningful and collaborative partnerships with each of my clients. I work from a strengths-based, empowering approach with every individual or couple, and I solicit your input and feedback throughout our journey together. My approach is rooted in principles of resiliency and inherent strength, focusing on balancing deep processing with practical solutions. As we build our connection, I will meet you where you are to gradually establish and review goals, and explore creative pathways to processing, always confirming that you feel you're making strides toward the personal growth and healing you seek."

"I believe that therapy belongs foremost to the patient. I believe that the verbal sharing of experiences allows one to hear themselves think and identify how they feel-gaining meaningful insights into who they are along the way. There is no need to know why exactly treatment is being sought. The only need is a willingness to know the self better, and a belief that through a collaborative dialogue, change is possible. My goal is to create the safe and trusting relationship necessary to allow the treatment process to unfold. I join my patients as a active collaborator, a sensitive observer and a discerning interpreter. "

"My counseling approach emphasizes how all individuals have the capabilities to live life authentically and with reduced stress. My goal is to help you utilize your strengths to achieve positive self-change and growth through the many transitions in life. I provide counseling for adults, couples, and older adults experiencing depression, low self esteem, anxiety, parental difficulties, relationship problems, substance abuse, anger, and stress related symptoms. I have training in teaching relaxation techniques and anger management skills including deep breathing and systematic desensitization. "

""There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you." - Maya Angelou. Have you ever found yourself stuck within stressful relationships, uncomfortable environments or confusing emotions? That "stuck" feeling often leads to discomfort in our daily lives and uncertainty about the future. I address these struggles by utilizing a holistic approach that combines attachment theories, body-centered techniques, and family context awareness. These strategies allow me to focus on the strengths already within each client, and uncover past wounds that might be limiting growth. I truly believe that every individual, couple and family has the capacity to grow and thrive!"

"As a therapist, I want to meet each client where they are in their process and walk with them as they move toward healing and fullness of life. Within each of us is a movement toward growth, but it's often derailed by our experiences and our interpretations of these experiences. I help my clients identify these points of derailment so that they may be free to live their lives fully and to become their most authentic selves."

"You deserve to live a life with a calm and focused mind, a relaxed body, and a sense of wellbeing. Sessions with me involve a collaborative approach to help you improve relationships, ease your racing mind, relax physical tension, and live a more fulfilling and balanced life. Whether it be work stress, trauma, challenging relationships or addictive behaviors, I will help you explore the issues you are facing and cope with crisis better."
