Hello,

My name is Assumpta Nwagwu. I'm a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with over six years of experience helping people ages 13 and up feel more like themselves again. I take the time to understand what you’re going through before we build a plan together. Whether we’re working through medication options or talking through what's been weighing on you, my goal is to help you feel supported, understood, and hopeful about the road ahead.

I specialize in treating clients with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorders/manic-depressive illness, ADHD, ODD, OCD, and trauma.

Hello, my name is Evalee and I am a licensed clinical social worker in Georgia and South Carolina with over 25 years of experience working in mental health and social services as a counselor. I graduated from Savannah State University with a Master's degree in Social Work with a clinical concentration. I have worked in a variety of settings with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, Bipolar disorder, relationship issues, parenting problems, life changes, OCD, ADHD, ODD, anger management skills, LGBTQ related issues, intellectual disabilities, women's issues, and caregiver stress. I also helped many people who have experienced trauma and abuse.

Hi, I'm Dr. Daniel! I'm a jack of all trades & master of none. I'm a U.S. Marine Corps veteran. Before my clinical training, I completed a BSc in Organizational Management, a Master of Divinity in Chaplaincy, and a Doctor of Ministry. I'm an Ordained member of the clergy. Later, I completed a Master in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and have completed all of the core courses for a PhD in Counseling and Psychological Studies, only the dissertation remains. I'm nationally board certified.

I am a board certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, who strongly believes mental wellness is the framework for a well-balanced a healthy lifestyle. The most challenging part is asking for help and you've jumped that hurdle. I have been in nursing for over 10 years with a background in med-surg, cardio telemetry, emergency medicine and psychiatric care. Regardless of the setting, I have witnessed many patients struggle, but most importantly, I have also witnessed patients pull-through and overcome. I've treated patients with substance abuse disorders, anxiety, depression, and a list of others.

Hello and welcome! If you're feeling anxious or disconnected from yourself, I'd be happy to support you on your counseling journey. I work with adults and children in navigating family transitions like divorce or co-parenting, healing from emotionally complicated or absent parent relationships, managing relationship and dating patterns, identity development, and building healthier connections. I'm a dedicated master's-level therapist with expertise in EMDR, REBT, Solution-Focused, and Gestalt therapy. As a certified 200-hr RYT, I integrate yoga and meditation to enhance healing, balance, and well-being.

I’ve been trained extensively in EMDR. EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a therapeutic approach designed to help individuals process experiences. It works by engaging bilateral stimulation, such as side-to-side eye movements and tapping leading to reduced emotional impact and improved mental well-being.

My practice extends to navigating the complexities of childhood trauma, offering support for both emotional and physical well-being. Additionally, I provide a compassionate approach to help you overcome life's challenges. Let's work together to build resilience and create positive change in your life.

Some things sit at the intersection of your body, your history, and your identity all at once. Chronic illness that no one takes seriously. Fertility struggles that feel isolating. Postpartum experiences that do not match what anyone told you to expect. The grief of a life chapter ending. Most therapists are not trained to hold all of that. That is exactly where I work.

I am Dr. Crystal Holt, a Licensed Professional Counselor with a doctorate and sixteen years of experience working with adolescents and adults. I bring a cultural fluency and lived awareness into the room that credentials alone cannot teach. I work with anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic conditions, infertility, maternal mental health, and the full, complicated range of what it means to be a person navigating a world that does not always slow down long enough to let you heal.

I have a Masters degree in Social Work. I have worked in healthcare for 15+ years.

My focus is life transitions. Whether it be coping with a disability, a recent medical diagnosis, grief and loss of a friend or family member, or transitioning to the next stage in your own life, I'm here to help you navigate complex systems and complex emotions,

I have 16 years of counseling experience and work with teens, adults, and families navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, anger, trauma, stress, and major life transitions. I also support clients dealing with panic, OCD, sleep concerns, relationship issues, family conflict, and substance use.

My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and supported. I take an open-minded, holistic, and solution-oriented approach, and I believe therapy should be tailored to your unique needs, strengths, and goals. I provide therapy in English and French.

Life brings seasons of change, and you don't have to navigate them alone. I work with individuals, couples, and families experiencing anxiety, depression, family issues, grief and loss, and relationship challenges, while also supporting concerns such as ADHD, bipolar disorder, panic disorders, stress management, trauma, identity issues, men's issues, and cultural or ethnic concerns. I welcome children, adolescents, adults, and seniors, and I strive to create a space where every person feels heard, respected, and understood. Whether you're facing a difficult transition, navigating conflict in your relationships, or looking for healthier ways to cope, my goal is to help you gain clarity, strengthen your relationships, and move toward lasting emotional well-being.

Welcome! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 10 years of experience helping children, teens, adults, and families navigate life's challenges. I'm passionate about helping people discover their strengths, overcome obstacles, and create meaningful change. Whether you're seeking support for yourself or a loved one, I look forward to getting to know you and supporting you every step of the way.

Hi, I’m Dr. Linda Wickens, a doctoral-level therapist and coach who works with individuals navigating stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, and patterns that keep them feeling stuck while preventing forward movement and growth. Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside but feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or frustrated that change feels harder than it should.

Therapy and coaching with me are never one-size-fits-all. We work collaboratively to create a plan that is specific to you, your goals, and your capacity, adjusting pace and structure as your needs evolve. I focus on helping clients understand their patterns, build emotional awareness, and develop practical skills they can actually use in daily life.

I hold a Doctorate in Social Work and am a fully licensed clinical social worker, with over nine years of experience in the mental health field. My work integrates evidence-based therapy with a coaching-informed lens when appropriate, allowing sessions to be both supportive and goal-oriented while still making space to explore the past and its impact on the present.

Clients often describe my style as warm, direct, and collaborative. As part of my concierge model, clients work directly with me rather than an assistant, and I remain accessible to my clients outside of sessions through secure communication when needed. I believe growth happens through understanding, compassion, and honest conversation, and that progress is most sustainable when care feels personal, intentional, and consistent.

Please Note: I do not provide couples or marriage counseling. I do not treat adolescents under the age of 21. Additionally, I am not able to treat clients who are experiencing active suicidal ideation or self-harm behaviors. If these services are needed, I encourage seeking a provider who specializes in these areas or contacting appropriate crisis resources if immediate support is required.
