Hello, I'm Evelyn Butler, a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. Welcome—I'm glad you're here.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with over nine years of experience working with adult women and couples. I hold a Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling with a specialization in Marriage and Family Therapy.

I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, trauma, relationship and marital challenges, family conflict, perfectionism, and self-esteem concerns. Many of the people I work with find themselves feeling stuck in recurring patterns—whether in their relationships, emotional responses, or the expectations they place on themselves.

I also offer Islamically integrated therapy for Muslim clients and have received training in Traditional Islamically Integrated Psychotherapy (TIIP). I welcome clients from all backgrounds and strive to provide care that is thoughtful, collaborative, and tailored to each person's unique needs and values.
