Under the best of circumstances life is not easy. Sometimes we face challenges in our lives and just need someone to listen, care about, and guide us. There's always hope for change and if you are willing to put in the work, there is someone willing to help and that someone is me. Having the courage to take the pathway of change is the first step. Together lets work to make a difference.

I obtained my Master of Arts degree in Counseling: Art Therapy from Adler University and hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in Fine Arts. I use an integrative approach to therapy that includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), art therapy, and expressive techniques to meet your individual needs. Through therapy, I can assist you to address patterns of anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem, and other stress-related issues. I have worked with culturally diverse individuals of all ages, while specializing in work with emerging adults .

I work with clients of all ages, but I have a focus in working with teens and young adults . I have a strong passion in working with members of the LGBTQ+ community, or those questioning their identity. I use a client-centered approach; I want you to get the most out of therapy by using techniques that are best suited for you as an individual. I have experience working with various diagnoses including clients starting out their gender transition journey, reunification, anger management, couples counseling, family counseling, and victims of domestic violence.

Rachel works with groups, individuals, couples, and families and operates holistically, considering how mental, emotional, spiritual, physical/nutritional, social, environmental, and occupational factors impact overall well-being throughout the treatment process. Integrating various theories as “tools in the toolbox” to fit the client’s specific needs, she believes that once individuals feel accepted and worthy, they are empowered to begin making lasting changes in their lives. This carries over to couples and families as they learn to shift the relational pattern of behavior through focused emotional connection and understanding.

Finding balance is often hard. I specialize in individual and couples therapy with a focus on marital and couples, sex therapy, and alternative lifestyle issues, such as non-monogamy. I have over 16 years of experience with LGBTQIA+ concerns, ethical non monogamy, and marital and couples work with communication and conflict issues. I bring a warm, honest, and open approach to therapy while helping you feel and find hope. I truly work to meet you where you are and create a space where you are not only safe but with a friend. This step is hard and I have been in your shoes so I will never judge.

The goal of Heal Thyself Counseling Services is to create a supportive therapeutic environment where clients can explore their own emotional needs and overcome barriers that limit their full potential by meeting each client where they are most comfortable - at their home, in office, or online. I have professionally served individuals, families, and children for more than 6 years. Using cognitive therapy techniques and psycho-education as the backbone for treatment planning, I can help you develop a clear plan for improving your life and important life relationships.

Sam specializes in working with children, adolescents, and young adults . However, she does have experience working with older adults , couples, and families. She has worked with a range of diagnoses from anxiety disorders to trauma related disorders to psychotic disorders. Sam believes that there is no such thing as one shoe fits all. This has guided her in taking an eclectic therapy approach to meet the needs of the individuals she works with.

Are you successful at work, but unhappy in life? You come home exhausted only to get into another fight with your partner or maybe your child. They say you don't listen. Meanwhile, your mind races with worries about the future and your family. Work feels empty and lifeless. What is going on?? You know there's more to life than work and accomplishments, but you don't really know where to find that extra juice you're looking for. Is talking to someone the answer? People seem to think so – they've been saying this all along. Maybe it's time to give this inner work a try. But how?

I see psychotherapy as a collaborative process. From this perspective, I have developed an individualized approach in which the relationship provides a safe place where feelings and behavior can be explored. Often, current struggles have developed over time so that connections can be made to past experiences. With this understanding a person can begin to make changes which lead to greater satisfaction and happiness. I bring a solid eclectic knowledge base to the process, drawing on individual dynamics, relationship dynamics, and an understanding of human development throughout the life cycle. I work with individuals, couples, and adolescents (including their families).

A typical session with me varies depending on the person and their needs. I enjoy integrating previous conversations and current happenings to make sure the client addresses what they need to, and what they feel comfortable with that day. I plan to meet you where you are and go by your agenda. I prefer to use the first appointment to build rapport and trust. I like to set goals during the second session to get an idea of what it is you are looking for in therapy. These goals can always evolve or change as we move through therapy as needed. You are the expert on your experience, I am here to hold the tools and help you build!

Entering an intimate space with yourself is no easy task. But with the help of someone you trust, it makes the journey a bit easier to embrace. It is my belief that my job as a therapist is to help my clients connect the dots within their lives to enhance their mental health. This is done by unpacking, exploring and examining roadblocks from our past that are preventing us from being present in the present. This type of awareness helps to foster continual growth & grants access to understanding the story behind our behaviors.

My vision is to let people know there is a place where they can be heard, while being empowered and uplifted. My work focuses on helping my clients identify their strengths and teaching them tools to help not only cope, but also heal. I use a therapeutic process that focuses on my clients' needs and goals; along with evidence-based practices to help my clients resolve their issues and renew their lives. Managing stress and anxiety, adjusting to change, trying to find a work/school life balance, and dealing with life's everyday challenges can be overwhelming, but together we can work towards managing these issues in a healthier way.
