Complete the Patient Inquiry Form on my website. You will receive a response the same or next day. My practice is primarily composed of adults struggling with anxiety and depression. I find that people reach out to treatment when excessive worry, low motivation, and negative thinking can lead to feeling less confident in their work, behind on tasks at home, and impacting their relationships. I don't treat ADHD and I don't prescribe controlled substances, such as Xanax for anxiety.

As difficult and painful as they may seem at times, our struggles can offer us opportunities to discover more about ourselves and our potential. Utilizing a unique blend of mental health counseling, whole person life coaching, and mindfulness tools, I can support you in breaking free from your limitations, allowing you to move forward with conviction and confidence toward new opportunities. Through this process, you can learn to trust your intuition and act with personal integrity. The value you place upon yourself may grow and you may discover that you are capable of achieving far more than you once thought possible.

I have experience in addressing a wide range of concerns and diagnoses, including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, relationship issues, chronic health struggles, self-esteem, stress management, and ADHD. My goal is to empower my clients with tools and insights that can facilitate positive change and enhance their overall quality of life.

I believe that the experiences we go through in life shape us, the people around us impact us, and I believe that the process of growing is a life long journey. I practice psychodynamic therapy informed by person centered ways of relating. That’s just a fancy way to say that I think your life impacts who you are, how you behave and feel, and that an empathetic, supportive relationship is the best place to work on the change you want to see.

Is life giving you a beating? Do you feel like you've been derailed? Sometimes you might need a helping hand to get back on track. Or maybe you don't even remember ever being "on track," but you'd like to develop a life of inner peace and meaning. Whatever the case, I'm here for you. Some of my areas of practice include anxiety, depression, trauma, identity, self-esteem, life transitions, spiritual concerns, premarital counseling, and relationship struggles. I also work with individuals who experience hallucinations.

He has a vast amount of experience working with a wide array of complex issues including: anxiety disorders, depression and other mood disorders, substance abuse, emotional, physical, and sexual trauma and other various issues.

Our Therapists are Deidre Lafferty, LCSW; Mick Fredrickson, LCSW; Allison Dreshfield, LPC; Michelle La Casse, Professional Counselor Assoc.; Natalie Haight, CSWA; Autumn Acey, CSWA; and Connie Smith-Wells, CSWA. We help our clients feel accepted, understood, and supported so they can explore and organize their experiences and create new coping methods.

My counseling approach is based on the belief that everyone can create meaningful change within themselves. I believe that all entities whether it be individuals, couples or families have the innate ability to create change and resolve issues. I think we are all intrinsically designed to be resilient and to find strength from within ourselves when it is needed. As a forward thinker, I am prone to believe that when hope is instilled, and solutions are sought or offered there is always a greater possibility for change to occur.

Currently accepting NEW clients! Receiving teletherapy without leaving the comfort of your home is convenient for multiple obvious reasons; being in your own environment also offers several benefits that allow a natural process, greatly enhancing the therapeutic relationship. I enjoy working with adolescents, families, and adult individuals; ranging from a variety of metal health issues, to the daily highs and lows of life. My counseling style is to empathically meet my clients where they are throughout the therapeutic process, work alongside them while they navigate life, and offer insight for moving forward successfully.

I entered the counseling field because I believe that everyone has the capacity to grow, heal, and live healthy, meaningful lives. I utilize a person-centered, strengths-based, and integrative style of therapy, drawing heavily from cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and trauma-informed practices. I also welcome faith as a key element of the therapy process and I draw on principles of Christianity, whenever appropriate.

There are times when it is difficult to see a way forward, and discovering who we are, where we came from and what has transpired in our lives is vitally important. If you are here, my guess is that you may be grieving a loss, struggling to accept difficult life changes like divorce or separation, or perhaps dealing with anxiety. Whatever the circumstances, it is my desire to see you rediscover happiness and purpose-- I wholeheartedly believe that therapy can help you get there.

I most enjoy working with you, someone motivated to improve. I’ll help you cope effectively with depression, anxiety, bipolar, and trauma disorders and I have for 20 years. You’re individual, couple, family, or groups. Adolescents and adults are preferred. I will help you with stress, horrifying traumas, deaths, diagnoses. Struggling with perinatal mood difficulties, eating disorders? I can help. I’ll teach you skills that enable and empower you to feel happy, stable, and independent again. I’m published on Amazon as Erica L Hernandez. My book is apocalyptic: Evasion, which addresses how to cope with grief.

Looking to make changes can be challenging! I believe we all have the capacity to change in a safe and helpful space. My passion is assisting individuals in making changes that work for them. I have over 30 years of experience challenging myself in learning with every person I meet, continuing education and implementing what works for each individual. I employ a non-judgmental approach with support and encouragement along the way. If this sounds like something you are looking for, you can contact me and consult about an appointment,

I practice a dynamic style of therapy that is rooted in creating a supportive, caring environment where we establish a good working relationship that fosters self-awareness and insight. I work in-depth with you to discover how past family experiences may (often unconsciously) influence present day issues. We work to understand how difficult situations of the past contribute to longstanding frequently dysfunctional behavior patterns or negative self-perceptions. Therapy can help heal painful emotional wounds and relieve symptoms, improve self-acceptance and coping, improve relationship quality and overall life and work satisfaction.

Are you feeling challenged by motherhood? As a therapist who specializes in maternal mental health, I help you process and cope with the stress, anxiety, and overwhelm that surfaces during the parenting years. Relationship concerns, career transitions, exceptional children, even coping with loneliness are all common counseling topics. With very little time to process complex feelings, these issues can lead to anxiety, ambivalence, anger, even grief. I give women the space to explore their very real feelings, while fostering confidence in, and compassion for, themselves through this intense season of life.

I specialize in trauma based treatment, working with those struggling with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, parenting issues, marriage & family difficulties, weight issues/struggles, spiritual crisis & questions, women's issues including struggles associated with pregnancy & postpartum, coping with spousal abuse, pornography addiction, etc.

You may appear "fine" to those around you, but inside your emotions are growing more and more intense and out of control. You no longer feel the connection you once did with the people who mean the most to you. You're overwhelmed by the constant pressure to meet an ever-increasing number of new expectations and demands. You desperately want to, "just let it go," but you don't know how. You wonder how you got to this place. You're here because you're barely able to keep your head above water and if you don't get help soon, you're afraid you might go under.
