Are you a single looking how NOT to re-create the wheel of your dating past? Maybe in a relationship but wanting more tools to make it work? Life is about change, and some changes are more difficult to navigate than others. When we are stressed, anxious, or depressed, it is a sign that our lives are out of balance. My focus is on providing a safe, supportive, non-judgmental and compassionate space for adults , couples, and families to share their experiences and help navigate through some more difficult life changes positive or negative; to create more balance in your life.

As individuals, we experience influences, temptations, trials and tribulations in different times in our lives, which can leave you feeling hopeless, helpless, out of control or like you have failed. I understand how life and environments can become a routine, a pattern, and sometimes an unhealthy cycle. I am here to help you identify and make steps toward being the kind of person or family you want to be.

At times life provides us with the opportunities that enable us to grow and accomplish. However, at times it also presents itself in the form of a challenge. These life events can take a toll on our mental health and leave us feeling hopeless, unmotivated, lost, and stuck. I am passionate and confident in my ability to make a difference in the life of my clients.

Life does not come with a manual. We have all faced life’s challenges, with some being more difficult than others. These challenges have shaped who we are and how we interact with the world around us. However, we can work together to change the outcomes of these experiences, build coping skills, and empower you. I am not just another therapist -- I truly enjoy seeing my clients grow and improve. As long as someone wants to work on themselves, I will be there along the way.

I love working with children, adolescents and adults who know a better life is possible, but lack the tools, self-esteem and/or support needed to overcome old patterns and create a new way of being. The kids I support in the playroom often struggle to communicate, manage their behavior, exhibit confidence, problem solve and positively relate to others. Adolescents and adults I serve may have experienced harmful relationships, traumatic events, or notice difficulties feeling comfortable in their own skin. It would be an honor to accompany you on life's journey of ups and downs as you heal the past and work toward a brighter future.

Hello, my name is Mark Chaney and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 16 years of clinical experience. I work with individuals and families experiencing a wide array of presenting concerns. Some clients I see are experiencing short term stressors while others are experiencing longer term mental health disturbances. For individual therapy, I generally treat adults and adolescents ages 12 and older. I have training and experience in the fields of mental health, trauma, domestic violence, foster care and adoption and use an integrated model that builds upon an individual's existing beliefs, strategies and virtues.

All individuals experience struggles or crisis at some point in their lives. As an experienced licensed psychologist, I am committed to helping my clients overcome obstacles and meet goals that will lead to lasting and meaningful changes in their lives. I provide individual, group, and family therapy to clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, trauma, grief/loss, life stressors, parenting challenges, attention-deficit disorder, and related behavioral disorders. I also conduct comprehensive psychological evaluations of children, adolescents, and adults . Special interests include: child and adolescent therapy, treatment of abused children, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and gifted testing.

If you're searching for counseling, I suspect you're feeling pretty lost. Your brain is fogged. You're anxious and confused about your marriage, your kids, or the history you've experienced. What you once thought to be true when you were at your best doesn't seem possible in the future. Maybe you just need someone else to help carry you for a while. We can help.

I believe that each individual is capable of harnessing their own inner strengths to overcome various obstacles and life stressors. We will explore your current resources and work together to strengthen those, as well as, create new resources. My approach entails empowering you along your journey of insight and growth. Through collaboration and rapport, we can redefine your sense of self and shift from a place of surviving to thriving. Furthermore, I can utilize traditional talk-therapy, psychotherapeutic yoga, as well as, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR).
