Are you feeling trapped in patterns of dysfunction? Struggling to break free from limiting family narratives while preserving your emotional integrity? If so, I'm here to support you. I specialize in guiding clients who have the right intentions but lack the necessary tools for effective self-regulation and interpersonal engagement. These challenges often stem from limited learning opportunities or a lack of positive role models during formative years. Together, we'll work on building these crucial skills, empowering you to create meaningful change in your life and relationships.

Attention Young Adults! Are you struggling with parents who still want to treat you like you're a teenager? You've handled the pressure of school, work, and relationships, but don't seem to get credit from the people who claim to know you best. Adulting is hard! I've had the pleasure of supporting young adults and families for many years, but I'm still young enough to remember what that was like. If you're going through big life changes and looking for support from someone who's NOT your parent, reach out today. I love working with people of diverse backgrounds, values, and perspectives, so rest assured I want to hear your story.

I enjoy working with anyone age 13 or older with struggles in the area of self-esteem, setting healthy boundaries with others, learning how to be self-respectful in words, thoughts & feelings, stress & managing anxiety as well as anyone who is healing from loss of either a loved one or pet(s). I also enjoy helping people during seasons of transition whether in young adulthood to increase independence or later years to adjust to decrease in independence resulting from illness, injury or the aging process. I especially enjoy working to provide faith-based struggles.

My name is Mercedes Carey, and I'm a licensed social worker. I'm interested in assisting people in discovering new ways to live a lifestyle that promotes healing on a mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual level. I use somatic approaches, such as mindfulness and movement, to treat the mind and body together. As a queer masculine-presenting woman of color, I know what it’s like to belong to multiple marginalized identities and navigate spaces where your entire self is not acknowledged or welcomed. I am deeply committed to providing a safe therapeutic environment that recognizes and honors individuals as a whole person.
