Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 16 years of experience helping people get unstuck. I specialize in supporting adolescents, men, and women navigating anxiety, depression, anger, grief, LGBTQIA+ concerns, and substance abuse. If you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious about your career, or eager to improve but lacking the tools to make it a reality, you are in the right place. Armed with a Doctorate in Social Work, my goal is to help you identify the root causes of your challenges and empower you to build a more balanced, fulfilling life.

I can understand first-hand how difficult it can be to reach out for help for the first time. I believe in the importance of "practicing what you preach" and I have been the client in the room who needs extra support. I invite you to give yourself a chance, try something new, and gain a healthy perspective on how to address complicated moments in your life.

Hello there! :) I’m Daisy, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker passionate about helping children, teens, adults, and families navigate life’s challenges with support and compassion. I create a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients can feel safe, understood, and empowered to grow. I am bilingual in English and Spanish and provide a culturally sensitive environment. My background includes working with children and families through complex life stressors, parenting challenges, trauma, anxiety, and major transitions. I believe healing happens through connection, practical tools, and feeling truly seen.

Glad to meet you!

I am Dr. Tayo (Omotayo) Alamutu, a Doctoral Prepared Psychiatric Mental Health Practitioner with an advanced training in diagnostic evaluation, psychopharmacology, and evidence‐based treatment for psychiatric conditions, Including anxiety, depression, PTSD, Bipolar, and ADHD. I provide diagnostic evaluation, medication management, and supportive therapy using evidence-based approaches.

I work primarily with young adults who are feeling overwhelmed, burned out, or stuck — especially when it comes to anxiety and relationship challenges. Many of my clients are used to holding it all together on the outside, but internally feel lost or unsure of how to move forward.

I bring a calm, grounded presence to the work, even in high-stress situations. Much of my background is in working with clients in crisis, which allows me to help you navigate difficult emotions without things feeling out of control. At the same time, I’m warm, relatable, and honest — I’ll meet you where you are, while also gently challenging patterns that may be keeping you stuck when or if needed.

NOT ACCEPTING NEW EAP CLIENTS.

With 12 years of mental health experience, I support adults with ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, disordered eating, low self-esteem, career uncertainty, and relationship or family-of-origin concerns. I have a special interest in working with Asian American adults and adoptees exploring identity and cultural or family expectations.

I have experience working with children, youth, adults, families, couples but in the last few years, I have shifted my main focus to work with adults who are struggling with anxiety, trauma and depression. I’ve worked in the mental health field for 22 years and been practicing as a therapist for about 10 years. As a licensed marriage and family therapist, I believe that prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be difficult, so congratulations on taking your first step to start therapy.

I work with women of color who are tired of always being the strong one. If you’re carrying old wounds that still feel fresh, stuck in patterns that don’t even feel like yours, or wondering when it’s finally your turn to be cared for; I’m here for that. You won’t have to code-switch with me. Let’s set down the masks you wear just to move through the day.

In this space, you get to be fully seen--the soft parts, the angry parts, the parts you’ve hidden just to keep the peace. All of you is welcome here. Together, we’ll make room for the messy, the painful, and the hopeful parts of your story, at a pace that feels right for you. Healing doesn’t have to be perfect; it just has to start with a space where you’re safe to be real.

I have 15+ years of experience working with individuals and couples who have experienced trauma, both directly and indirectly. My specialty is those going through a loss, suffered emotional trauma, or are victims of violence. Unaddressed individual trauma can often lead to anxiety, depression and difficulties in developing / maintaining loving relationships. Couples can struggle with unhealthy patterns of communication and need alternative tools to better understand each other. With a warm, collaborative, and evidence-based approach I support clients facing issues such as anxiety, grief, life changes and relationship challenges.

I diagnose and treat mental disorders including medication-assisted treatment along with counseling for chemical dependency and substance use disorders.
