"The most useful tool in psychotherapy is a thoughtful, interactive dialogue. My goal is to engage clients to use their unique strengths and experience to create a life that is meaningful to them, both in the present and into the future."

"There are times in life when we all need a little extra support or an outside perspective, or even just to learn some new practical skills. I have a genuine passion for coming alongside people and offering my expertise to help them on their journey. I specialize in mental health services for children and adolescents including testing and assessment, individual therapy, group therapy, and family therapy. In addition to children and youths, I have experience with adults struggling with anxiety, depression, parenting concerns, stress-related concerns, and adjustment or phase of life transitions."

"Your future depends on what you do in the present. Making changes, no matter how small, can afford you the opportunity to increase your personal growth. For many people knowing where to start can be the greatest hurdle. For others, knowing does not always lead to "doing". Counseling is one avenue in exploring what you can do to make a difference in your life."

"After 37 years of practice, I do not have a "one size fits all"orientation. Each person is different and special. I have been trained in psychodynamic theory, CBT, EMDR, and Family Systems theory. I use a combination of all to treat each client as unique."

"Are you or a family member struggling emotionally, feeling anxious, hurt, angry or depressed? Is this affecting you in one or more areas of your life? We all face challenges at times; having a supportive and caring person to help you through that journey can make all the difference. My role as a therapist is to serve as a guide to help the client identify and express their needs and wants, as well as assist the client in recognizing their strengths and ability to cope, heal and grow."

"I am a warm and compassionate therapist who enjoys working with children, adolescents and adults. In my practice, I strive to help clients define and understand their obstacles, set reasonable goals and empower them to make improvements in their lives. Throughout treatment, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space, allowing clients to work at a pace that is comfortable for them. By sharing my positive energy and enthusiasm, I give clients the support and encouragement they need to create change."

"Are you stressed out? Are you tired of feeling sad, anxious, and overwhelmed with life? Have you lost your focus? Do you feel as if things will never get better? I can help you get your life back on track. My approach to therapy is warm, non-judgmental, and genuine. I will work together with you to help you achieve your goals and learn to manage life's struggles."

"If you are here, I'm going to make a few assumptions: 1. You are looking for answers...and want someone who knows how to help. 2. You are willing to "do whatever it takes" to save your relationship. 3. You're thinking: Something is missing... I'm worried that I have "fallen" out of love. The kids are a reason to stay married but I need more than that... I'm beginning to think we are behaving more like roommates than lovers. I don't know if I will ever be able to trust them again..."

"I am dedicated to providing a safe and supportive practice which will allow you to have an experience of healing and growth. "In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity". This quote has always meant so much to me, especially when faced with many of life's problems. I have always had a great interest in helping and working with others, as far back as I can remember. My training and scope of competence is in the treatment of trauma, postpartum, family conflict, anxiety, school/work related problems, parent education and support, parent-child conflict, divorce and depression with adults and children."

"Struggling to figure out your gender identity and/or sexual orientation and how it fits into the rest of your life? Feeling just fine with who you are but worried and disheartened about the political climate and how it affects you and those you love? Concerned about your well-being, feeling different, isolated and scared can be devastating when you want more than anything to be safe, understood, loved, and respected for who you really are. Please contact me for psychotherapy, training, consultation, and assessment for gender confirmation medical interventions (as applicable)."

"I am a couples and individual therapist and a clinical hypnotherapist. I help people with the many challenges that impact their daily lives. I work with people who are struggling with their relationships, depression, anxiety, stress, parenting and other challenges they face. I use hypnosis with clients so that they can relieve their suffering and practice mindfulness and relaxation in their lives."

"Welcome! I'm a multicultural social worker Portuguese and Spanish speaking who has had the priviledge of working with children, teens, adults and families on trauma and a variety of mental issues for over 12 years. It's is not our challenges that define us but our willingness to ask for help and start the journey towards health and healing. The journey never ends so my gift to you is to offer you tools to build a strong foundation for support through the challenges that may lay ahead of you. It is possible and I know you can do it!"

"My goal as a therapist is to create a relationship with my clients based on collaboration, compassion, and respect. I focus on meaningful connection with my clients and will work with you to create positive and long-term changes in your life. My treatment approach is varied depending on the needs of each individual."

"I have been in private practice for 10+ years focusing on clients with relationship issues, personal growth, depression, anxiety, and LGBT issues. I view therapy as a collaboration where we discover the areas where you want to make changes in your life and work toward reaching your full potential. I believe it is important that you have a good fit with your therapist, and I begin the process by discussing your unique issues you are bringing to therapy to determine if I can be an effective therapist for you."

"Hello and welcome. I offer psychotherapy for adults, couples, families, and teens dealing with relationship difficulties, depression and anxiety, bipolar disorder, personality issues, schizophrenia, and other mental health problems. I also help family members understand their loved one's difficulties and help couples and families communicate more effectively. I use well-researched treatment methods (such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Family Focused Therapy) in an ethical and compassionate framework. I believe that change occurs within the context of a positive therapeutic alliance and my focus is on helping individuals, couples, and families make significant change in their lives."

"Making a commitment to start therapy is a huge step, and you've already taken it! Are you feeling overwhelmed, exhausted and spent? If you need a comfortable/confidential place to explore the issues that have been bringing you down you have come to the right place! You deserve to LIVE your life...FULLY! You deserve to feel strong, confident, loved, and content. We have been helping people of all ages with issues like PTSD, depression, anxiety, relationships, substance abuse, and phobias for over 17 years. We also specialize in working with military service members and their families."

"I conduct individual, family and or/ relationship therapy. Therapy can mean venting your thoughts and feelings so that you actually are and feel heard. It could mean having an objective person to help you process your thoughts and feelings and/or while challenging that process at times to allow insight on how to see things another way. Furthermore, it could mean facilitating a plan to help you change a behavior, a relationship, yourself, or your situation."

"My insightful nature and non-judgmental therapeutic stance can help clients identify personal problems and find solutions. I've supported children, adolescents and adult clients facing emotional disturbances, family changes during deployment, deportation, and divorce, school-related concerns, hindered communication and decision making, substance misuse, self-doubt and acceptance challenges, and adjusting to new and unplanned life changes. I'm well equipped to engage children/adolescents by actively listening and responding to their distinctive struggles. My graduate research focused on the experiences of mixed hearing- deaf families and I look forward to working with hearing parents of children with deafness."
