Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Verified
You were taught to tear yourself down, aim low, and use all your energy to take care of others while leaving nothing for yourself. Do you know that Spirit has a plan for you that’s bigger than this? No wonder your mind's driving you crazy! Our image-obsessed society is deeply afraid of the wild creative potential of our emotions. The real problem is NOT that you’re weak! It’s that you don’t trust yourself to be powerful. Imagine how amazing your life could be if you learned to channel all that crazy-making energy into finding yourself, feeling good, and fulfilling your deepest calling.

I believe our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are inextricably linked. Facing life's problems can be scary, but doing so helps us to lead fuller, happier lives. I will assist you in developing the tools necessary for building self-awareness, resilience, and the ability to take control of your life and cope with problems as they arise. I will provide a consistent, compassionate, confidential environment where you can share your thoughts, feelings, and life goals openly and honestly.
Dorothy 'dory' Warren
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC-S
Verified
The connection between client and therapist is the main factor necessary for successful therapeutic change. I will help you clarify essential goals, that once achieved will lead to you firing me. By being "client-centered", our sessions will be led by you and I will walk with you during your journey, adding evidence-based information, posing insight-oriented questions and helping present relative information in a novel context (due to my being unbiased). "Firing" your therapist means you feel confident to utilize new skills to better manage life:)

Priscilla L. Rodriguez
Marriage & Family Therapist, MS, LMFT
Verified
You may have been experiencing yourself feel disconnected from yourself, your priorities, or relationships and perhaps even embarrassed that so many important parts of you are slipping through your hands. The constant struggle of wanting to feel at ease, calm and present, yet not knowing how to do that is making you feel defeated. You have found yourself here because you know that you cannot give up now, and that your life and relationships are your number one priority. Whether you are experiencing anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, or just "off," I know that you are ready for this change and you are so brave.

Bettsie Elyn Specia
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Verified
I am a genuine listener who engages others by getting to know them, while exploring needs and goals. I believe that problem-solving begins with discovery of our inner strengths which can be used to foster healing and growth. As one begins to identify these resources and learns to use them, she/he is empowered to make changes and gain understanding about self and others previously thought impossible. While work in therapy can be difficult at times, it does not always have to be "serious business". Many people do not know how to have fun and learning this skill is always healing.

Dr. Amy Kemter
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW, DSW
Verified
Life is a constant process of change-and sometimes that change can seem so overwhelming that we may feel too stuck to move. I work with individuals who recognize that growth is needed; however, the fear of change can make us compare ourselves to others, silence us from saying what our heart needs to say, stop us from growing, and imprison us with the "what ifs". My job is to help you find your inner strength and voice to grow, break unhealthy habits, reach goals, and recover from the pain of your past.
