If your teen having difficulty focusing in school, or having issues building healthy relationships, or having thoughts of self-harm, having someone who can listen without judgment is helpful.

Starting college. Moving over seas. Racial discrimination. Navigating romantic breakups. When you are experiencin a major life change it can cause worry, sleeplessness, irritablility and even depression. Sadly, it seems that major changes don't just happen in isolation. In fact, you are likely struggling due to a combination of expereinces that are further complicated by society's view of people from your background. It's not fair. As a clinician at PlayfulLeigh Psyched, I will help you get to where you or your teen wants to be.

Life is no joke right now. It's hard. It makes sense that you'd feel stressed, worried, down, unmotivated, and a whole lot of other things. Whether you're wanting to learn to feel happier, considering your gender identity or steps in gender transition, wanting to improve your sex life, having relationship troubles, or coping with past or present day trauma, I'm here to support you. If you're ready to dig up your sleeves and get to work, I'll be on your team.

Have you found yourself in the same relationships over and over? DO you feel STUCK in unhealthy relationships with your family and friends? Have you ever said to yourself “How did I get here again?” Do you have difficulty saying “no?” Unhealthy relationships can leave us heartbroken and unfulfilled. We spend countless amounts of energy trying to figure out where we went wrong all to no avail. We become sad, angry, jaded and defeated. Sometimes we give up on relationships all together. It hurts to much to stay and we are too afraid to change. We get stuck between a rock and a hard place.

I am honored to be of service to you. I know that mental health issues can wreak havoc in one's life. Sometimes we know the symptoms we are experiencing, and we just need the label, cause and or perhaps, just how to manage/live with it. Many people find themselves faced with challenges of having to restart their lives when faced with mental health challenges. Some have conflicts with family, friends, employers, co-workers & others. I am Fitzroy Dwyer LCPC, with experience working with diverse populations (ages, race, ethnicity, mental health issues, disability etc.) I am a therapist at ROH Mental Health & Wellness Services LLC.

This is for you! In life we have various roles and responsibilities that stretch us thin. Therapy is the one safe space that is catered to you. I focus on the natural unique strengths and capabilities we all have to help you on your journey to healing. In your personalized sessions I aim to be genuine while fostering a space of comfort, humor, empathy, and growth. While we embark on your journey we will prioritize progress, not perfection. As a therapist working for Move Forward Counseling Services, I have been trained in Strengths Perspective, Cognitive- Behavioral therapy, Multicultural counseling, and Trauma Informed Therapy.

Why struggle through life's challenges alone? Why not seek help today. I believe that each individual client has within themselves the power to change, live their ideal intended life, and maintain satisfying relationships. The counseling experience should provide an environment that is supportive, nonjudgemental, safe, and encouraging. Over my 15+ years of experience I have been known to challenge my clients to confront their issues, and develop the inner fortitude to deal with life's many challenges. If you're dealing with grief from the loss of a loved one, trauma, battling depression, anxiety, or stress, I can help.

Ready to take back control over your life and reach your fullest potential? Have you been experiencing negative cycles in your relationships (personally and professionally) and wondered how to do things differently? Or you've been going through a few life transitions (i.e., career change or layoff, new graduate, newlywed, new immigrant, new divorcee, etc.) and have had difficulty finding someone who can relate and provide clinical insight and practical guidance on navigating these challenges? Look no further and let me help you with your growth and healing journey!

Congratulations for taking the first step in trying to find a therapist. This is not an easy step. Now to finding the right fit. If you want concrete strategies and to learn ways to move forward my clinic is a way to go. We specialize in outcomes based (researched) treatment. I have been a DBT therapist for over 10 years and ERP for over 5 years. That means that if you have a hard time with information you don't like (distress tolerance), managing your emotions (emotional regulation), high intensity relationships (interpersonal effectiveness) and/or obsessive thoughts - we have several kinds of treatments that work.

I enjoy assisting individuals and couples through their journey toward personal enlightenment, often within a holistic approach. It is my passion to assist with the emotional growth process that comes with therapy. I am skilled at identifying patterns of dysfunction in behavior and thought, and guiding the cognitive processes to ensure positive outcomes. As a result, my ideal client is ready for change and willing to do the work required to embark upon the path toward healing and growth.

Many of us feel "stuck" with behaviors, thoughts and feelings that we cannot unravel. Sometimes we need help clarifying these issues to pave the way for being the best versions of ourselves.
