Often life's challenges can leave us feeling alone and lost. When we are struggling through painful or confusing parts of our journey, it’s important that we have people around us to help. I hope to make therapy a safe and inviting space for you to process the difficult parts of your story and help you become more confident in your own strengths. I help clients recognize and accept challenging emotions and encourage them to move forward with authentic and values-based actions.
Danielle Nash
Counselor, MA, LCPC

It feels like you're not going to be able to do this much longer. No, the relationship isn't going to end. It's just that something has got to give. You've literally said everything you can say to help your partner understand what you need. Explaining, negotiating, yelling, managing. All in hopes that something will click. That something will create change. At this point you don't know how it's gotten so painful and lonely. It's starting to feel a little helpless, maybe even hopeless, that you'll ever be able to have that connection that you once had again.

I work with adults, older adolescents and young adults. I have a particular passion for those in transition. That could be adults who are rethinking their path and wanting to design a life that they find inspiring to adolescents and young adults who are creating identify and direction in their lives. Transitions are not something we always choose. It might be a divorce, job change or family conflict . Either way, it is my goal to create a warm authentic environment that feels safe for us to explore struggles and possibilities together.

Barbara Ellen Beck
Marriage & Family Therapist, LMFT
Verified
Currently accepting new clients. Are you or your family feeling stress and strain from unpredictable and unacceptable behavior in a loved one? Do you have a current or past relationship filled with emotionally draining accusations? It is frightening when a loved one swings from being kind to ill-tempered? Do you “sugar-coat” and rationalize their behavior? "Walking on eggshells" keeps us on high alert. Narcissistic and dysfunctional control issues make us question our sanity. You are not alone! Let me put my TWENTY PLUS YEARS OF EXPERIENCE to work and help you create a fulfilling life.
Kelle Carver
Marriage & Family Therapist, LMFT
Verified
I believe that growth is only possible when we get so uncomfortable with being uncomfortable that we have to do something different. Feelings like that are usually what bring us to websites like this. I love working with clients who are experiencing confusion, ambivalence & anxiety about the changes & upsets in their lives. I want to help those who long for more, who picture the life they want but don’t know how to get there, & who ultimately believe that the path to getting what they desire first begins with looking inward. Self work takes bravery, vulnerability, & total personal honesty, but you won't be alone.
