Sometimes your mind understands what’s happened, but your body still holds the impact. I’m trained in EMDR and Brainspotting, approaches that help gently process those deeper layers. My work integrates mindfulness and somatic awareness to support nervous system regulation, so change doesn’t just feel intellectual, it feels real, grounded, and lasting.
I am an LCSW with 5+ years of experience supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, relationship challenges, and women's issues. I work with adults across the lifespan, including those managing ADD/ADHD, family conflict, and identity transitions. My approach centers on creating insight, challenging unhelpful thought patterns, and building the practical skills you need to live the life you choose. I earned my MSW from Florida State University and have experience working with youth, adults, and families in outpatient and community mental health settings. I bring warmth, curiosity, and a genuine investment in your growth to every session.
I have nearly a decade of experience working with a variety of individuals with many backgrounds. I emphasize the importance of a trauma-informed and supportive approach. I have expertise in treating a number of diagnoses, including ADHD, anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, and trauma. I offer a number of modalities, including CBT, MI, DBT, EMDR and IFS.
I have worked with diverse populations in a variety of settings, including inpatient psychiatric stabilization, homeless prevention, and integrated healthcare. These experiences have allowed me to develop an eclectic skill-set with a person-centered approach. I love being a social worker and having the privilege of helping others heal and grow.
I’m Chardae (She/Her), a licensed clinical social worker and relational therapist. I work with individuals, couples, and people in diverse relationship and family structures who are navigating things like relationship challenges, codependency, communication difficulties, boundaries, attachment patterns, trauma, life transitions, and/or feeling disconnected from themselves or the people they love (anxiety/depression/burnout).
I believe therapy should feel like a space where you can show up exactly as you are. My approach is warm, supportive, and collaborative, with an emphasis on creating a genuine connection and helping you feel heard and understood. Together, we can make sense of what you’re experiencing and work toward meaningful, lasting change at a pace that feels right for you.
Arti earned his bachelor’s degree in psychology from The University of Missouri at Rolla and his master’s in counseling from Webster University. Arti became a Licensed Professional Counselor in 2014. Arti has been working within the child welfare world for 24 years and has been part of almost every aspect of the system from preventative services to residential services to investigation of child abuse and neglect. Arti specializes in childhood trauma, trauma of all kinds, and family relationships.
I work with young adults and couples who feel emotionally overwhelmed, stuck in anxious patterns, or disconnected from themselves or their relationships. My background includes supporting people through life transitions, grief, anxiety, and relationship stress. I believe therapy works best when you feel truly seen, supported, and understood.
Taking the step to seek support isn’t easy, and I want to honor the courage it takes to be here. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Life Coach, and retired Army veteran who believes caring for your mental health is essential to living a balanced, fulfilling life. I’m passionate about helping people navigate life’s challenges, build resilience, and reconnect with themselves. I work with teens and adults who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, or major life transitions, and I strive to meet you with respect, compassion, and understanding.
I work well with anyone who seeks therapy and is ready to work on themselves. I have worked with about every population, culture and age group. Issues that I am best suited to treating include a wide variety of disorders, childhood trauma, addictions, domestic violence, parenting/bonding/interpersonal relationships. I certified in EMDR and expressive arts therapy. I like to offer different forms of expression to my clients in the healing arts. I also give plenty of skill building tools and homework so clients can maximize their progress outside of the weekly sessions. I speak Spanish fluently.
