Kelly Harold Edwards
Marriage & Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, LPC
Verified
I work with individuals who are struggling with their relationships or feeling stuck in a difficult place in their lives. I support clients in healing from shame and relational wounds towards living authentically in the present. I believe it takes courage to be our true selves, and in our work I encourage clients to stand in their truth and live in a way that feels fulfilling. I work with couples who are experiencing conflict, disconnection, or are recovering from betrayal. I help couples learn relational health by shedding light on dysfunctional patterns, improving communication of needs and feelings, and practicing co-regulation.

***NOT CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS*** As a recovering perfectionist and people pleaser, I often work with women who struggle with the same things. These tendencies can be so helpful in life, but they can also get in the way of how you truly want to live your life. The clients I see often have difficulty with boundaries, experience a lot of self-doubt and uncertainty, and feel disconnected from their true authentic selves. Rather than giving my clients answers, I help guide them to discover the truth and courage that lies within them, but is often covered up by their own adaptations to life and trauma.

My approach to therapy is to work on the present to build the future. We can't change difficult situations of the past which control us, but we can work together to better understand and resolve them.

Life is a lot of things at once, and so are you. So am I. So are the people and the relationships in our lives.
Deena Graham
Marriage & Family Therapist, MA, JD, LMFT
Verified
"Why is this so hard? We love each other, but we can't stop fighting." I understand the hopelessness of living in a cycle of conflict. I became a couples therapist because I believe deeply in the importance of having a supportive and loving relationship--with yourself and with your partner. I will help you learn how to stop when anger, fear and hurt cause you to react in defensive and aggressive ways toward your partner. By slowing down and taking care of yourself first, you will gradually learn how to connect from a more vulnerable and honest place, creating a more satisfying and peaceful relationship together.
Hillary Cauthen
Psychologist, PsyD, CMPC
Verified
I strongly believe in the practice of: embracing personal growth, enhancing performance, and enriching one's passion.I am curious about finding ways to enhance one's "heart" and inner drive that leads to greater sense of empowerment. While pushing oneself to their physical limits one can begin to understand the importance of mental strength. My goal is to understand your experience, your needs, and provide evidence based treatment. The therapeutic journey is personal and emotional. I appreciate being a part of your journey.
Gary Brothers
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Verified
First of all, I work for you. I am a hired consultant with specialized skills and expertise in certain areas with one goal...to make your life better. Often, however, getting to better takes some doing from both of us. This partnership, which is called the therapeutic relationship, is at the core of good psychotherapy. As such, I do not judge clients and do not look at things in terms of good or bad, right or wrong, should or shouldn't. Instead, I consider things in context of either constructive or destructive in moving towards the goal of making your life better in the ways you are seeking.
Penelope Frohlich
Psychologist, PhD
Verified
The decision to begin psychotherapy is an important step towards personal growth and greater self-awareness. It is likely that you are experiencing some distress but also hopeful that by committing yourself to this process you will improve your mental health and overall satisfaction. An important part of succeeding in psychotherapy is your motivation level and a good match between you and your therapist. If you are experiencing depression, anxiety, relationship distress, or sexual intimacy issues, I recommend we arrange a brief phone interview so you can note how it feels to share these private matters with me.

Are you struggling to navigate relationships, friendships, and balancing school or work at the same time? When we think we have it all figured out, life throws us a curve ball, the death of a loved one or loss of a job. Imagine adding a layer of anxiety or depression. What about introversion? Just for fun, let's also add a layer for people that identify as LGBTQ+. Coming out as gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, non binary, or gender fluid can be confusing for your straight, cis family and friends. Whether you identify with this because you experience this regularly or someone you love feels this way.

Vincent Tyler Andruzzi
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA, LPC-A
If you’re reading this, then likely, you are experiencing a challenging moment in your life as we all do. Life transitions, break-ups, or even the loss of a loved one may be something that you’re struggling with. On the other hand, you may not even know how to describe the problem, but know something just isn’t quite right. I find that therapy is the pursuit of guided self-discovery towards a healthier state of being. To me, it’s like a treasure hunt. A hunt where the treasure is the manifestation of a deeper understanding of ourselves through the exploration of thoughts, feelings, & behaviors.
