Hi my name is Dianca Tyson, MS, LPC. We all have hardships that we will face in life, but that doesn’t mean we have to face them alone. As your therapist, I will provide a therapeutic environment and an empathetic ear. I am passionate about helping other overcome their challenges with depression, trauma, stress, anxiety, loss, self-esteem, and relationship problems.
I have a deep understanding of what teens and adults are struggling with throughout their every day lives. I have over 15 years of experience assisting others to overcome some of life's most difficult obstacles.
Hello, and welcome! I’m Ashley, a licensed Clinical Social Worker with 5 years of experience supporting individuals in navigating life’s challenges.
I earned my MSW from the University of Kentucky and I have advanced training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction.
Whether you’re seeking support for a specific concern or simply want to better understand yourself, I’m here to help you find balance, clarity, and resilience.
My path to becoming a psychiatric nurse practitioner was inspired by personal experiences. The stigma of mental health obstructs many people's journeys to achieving happiness. As a US Army Veteran, I have seen firsthand how this affects the lives of those struggling and their families. My goal is to enhance awareness and reduce the stigma.
No single approach fits all clients; I tailor my approach to each client, making it relevant to the specific problem they are facing. The best way to understand your current issues is to examine how your past influences who you are today. I also emphasize understanding your emotions and past patterns to ensure a better understanding of yourself. I strive to provide a gentle and warm experience, ensuring you are comfortable within the therapy setting and process these hard feelings through a genuine relationship. I also ensure that you understand the process of our work together so you can feel informed and empowered.
Angellina Swart, LCSW is a social worker who has been in practice for six years. She is passionate about helping people access their strengths to overcome anxiety,
depression, and substance use disorders. Although she mainly works with adults, she does have experience working with children. She prefers to be authentic with her
clients to make them feel more comfortable and welcome in the therapeutic setting. She incorporates how external systems (family, work, policy, etc.) can affect a client’s well-
being and impact a person’s mental health.
Starting therapy often means saying things out loud for the first time. You don't have to have the words ready — that's part of the work.
I work with adults facing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and major life transitions, including the particular strain of rebuilding a life in a new country, holding a family across borders, or carrying a loss that happened somewhere else.
Much of my career has been spent with people on the worst day of their lives. I responded to the 1999 Vargas disaster in Venezuela, and worked with Project Liberty in New York after 9/11, training paramedics, firefighters, and highway police along the way. You do not have to protect me from what happened to you.
I trained first as a psychologist in Venezuela and completed my master's in mental health counseling in New York. I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York and Connecticut, a National Certified Counselor, and EMDR-certified.
Sessions are available in English and Spanish. Not translated — I work in both.
If you're deciding whether to reach out, you don't need to be certain. You only need to be curious enough to start.
Life moves fast, and it is so easy to wake up and realize you are running on everyone else's schedule instead of your own. Do you ever feel completely scattered, wondering what happened to the vibrant person you used to be? I get it. Navigating the beautiful, messy chaos of a growing family and the relentless pressure to "juggle it all" is no joke. That exact season of life is what drove me to dive headfirst into specialized training in women's mental health. As a licensed counselor since 2017 holding a diagnostic license, I am fiercely passionate about being the anchor—and the support system—I wish I’d had. Whether you're navigating motherhood, identity shifts, or a major life transition, we’ll work together to help you step back into your power and find your footing again.
