I provide online sessions. Do you struggle with chronic dieting and negative body image? It is my passion to support clients who want to break free from these negative patterns.

Hi, my name is Celanire (Cel) Shangraw and I am an LCSW. I enjoy supporting my clients to live a happier and more fulfilling life by overcoming obstacles and hurdles. I work with a wide variety of clients, mostly aged 18-40. I have worked in inpatient settings treating severe substance use and mental health concerns. I use a person-centered focus. I prescribe a number of different modalities since each individual client may need a different approach to meet their needs.

"I enjoy facilitating individual healing and growth for individuals, couples and families in order to find a path to thrive through difficult life transitions and stressful times."

Struggling with mental health is a difficult task to handle alone. With my clients, not only do I listen to their story I also teach clients coping skills to help them manage their symptoms. My clients typically experience anxiety, depression, substance use issues, or are struggling with difficult life transitions. I provide clients with the tools they need to help improve their lives and become the best version of themselves. The most important part of this process is to find the right therapist for you. Feel free to send me an email or leave a voicemail and we can see if we would be a good fit for each other!

Welcome to Your Journey Towards Healing and Growth! Life can be a challenging and unpredictable journey, filled with moments of joy, love, and success, but also with moments of pain, sadness, and uncertainty. I am here to walk with you on this path, helping you navigate the complexities of your emotional and mental well-being. I understand that seeking therapy is a courageous step, and am committed to providing a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. My approach to therapy is rooted in empathy, respect, and a deep appreciation for the unique journey each person undertakes.

To make real change happen we must choose. Choosing requires courage, strength & personal responsibility to undertake the intimate journey of self-discovery. The Japanese culture has a tradition of painting a broken section of pottery with gold, thereby embracing the meaning that beauty is found in the broken places. From a conscious & open heart space, I choose to meet you wherever you are in life, as life can hand us challenging situations at any moment, pushing our limits of pain, stress & comprehension. I am honored to co-create change with a diverse range of people, all ages & unique life stories,

Life can get really stressful, whether it's work, family, relationships, or even issues within yourself. My goal is to show you not only changes within therapy but also outside of therapy. I see every client as an individual and I truly care about your progress in the work we do together. Because everyone is different, your path to healing or growth may look different than other people around you. It would be a privilege to help you find these resources in yourself and to walk with you on your pathway to wellness.

Hello, I’m an LMFT and I thoroughly enjoy my work as a therapist. My name is Kylie Mackenzie, but you can call me Ky. I change my approach with everyone I see, generally speaking, because everyone heals in their own unique way. My most common theoretical approach is client-centered (we are equals) and psychoanalytic (I’m a blank slate) so the focus is purely on you with a split of problem solving and breaking down the emotional parts of the issue. I am very familiar with working with adults and teens. I have experience working with substance abuse and dual diagnoses.

Do you feel stressed or stuck? Do you wish things were different? You can utilize therapy to build alternative ways to cope with life problems and live your life fully.

Nice to meet you! I am proud of you for reaching out for help and exploring your options for your mental health. One of the hardest parts about asking for help is asking for help! You are already taking a step in the right direction for yourself, your partner, your child, or your family. I believe in one step at a time and that not "one way" is the "right way." This is your therapeutic journey, and I will walk alongside you to support and listen to you and provide you with tools to start healing your past, present, and future. I strive to cultivate an environment for my clients that feel comfortable, calming, accepting, and open.

If you are struggling to manage your emotions - they seem too much or you are so uncomfortable with your emotions you avoid them altogether, I have tools to help with this. You may feel stuck - in a coping pattern that no longer works, or a relationship that doesn't bring you joy. Maybe you can't move forward with your goals or even make goals. These are things I have helped many other people overcome. I have experience in helping people move from surviving to thriving - living a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

I strive to build a safe and caring therapeutic relationship to help you find relief from mental and emotional suffering. Beyond my training, I bring compassion and empathy from my own recovery to support your healing and growth. My style is active and I will collaborate with you to tap into your identity, strengths, values, and interests in our work together to respond more skillfully to your life’s challenges and achieve your goals.

I am a psychotherapist providing individual therapy services to adults. Many of clients who come to me are experiencing feelings of grief, sadness, anxiety, confusion about an area of their life, or difficulty in intimate or familial relationships. I also specialize in working with adults who are impacted by trauma. In my work I understand trauma as how we are impacted by the painful experiences in our lives and the ways in which those experiences shape the way we form relationships with others, with ourselves, and the degree to which we are able to find joy.

Hey there! I'm here for those navigating neurodivergence (ADHD/Autism), battling anxiety, OCD, depression, or healing from tough relationship patterns. I might be a good fit for you if you are looking for deeper self-exploration, realistic tools to navigate difficulties, and strategies for daily life. I feel my role is to help you gain better balance and self-acceptance as well as piece together things you struggle to understand on your own. I work to identify the root of clients concerns and guide them towards real solutions. I think you deserve a life free from societal pressures and space to embrace uniqueness as strengths.

Welcome! There comes a time in everyone's life when talking to someone is a healthy step in bringing peace and balance to ones life. If you are reading this, you are one step closer to deciding if talking to a therapist is right for you at this time in your life. My goal is to help you feel comfortable and safe in the therapeutic process. To help build trust, that therapy can be a useful and effective tool to help achieve the health, healing and balance that you wish to bring to your life.

Life can feel impossible to avoid struggling and we often don't feel we have the skills to cope successfully through. Unfortunately, sometimes we don't have all the resources we need for a given situation. Parts of us take on desperate roles trying to help us to survive. This might look like anxiety, depression, PTSD, addiction, and relationship/family issues. I aim to help you process unresolved issues and feelings and find solutions.
