Are you wanting to make change in life, but are struggling to escape the same old patterns? Looking to empower yourself and create change in your life? I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who has spent my career assisting men in achieving their goals, making lasting and fulfilling relationships, and facing life's challenges head-on. I have worked with adults across the lifespan to address concerns about relationships, behaviors, substance use, and more.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Mental Health Counselor across three states, I believe that access to mental health care is a vital necessity. I am passionate about helping clients move forward and helping others regain their lives. Conducting therapy services for 14 years has taught me that therapy is a feedback loop, where clients learn from me as I learn from them.
As a PMHNP-BC, I offer medication management and therapy sessions via Telehealth Mon-Fri 0900- 19:00.
Hi there, my name’s Ephraim and I'm a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 20+ years of experience. My specialties consist of relationships, men’s issues, career counseling, and psychosomatic illnesses.
Whether it's individuals or couples, I'm happy to get to work with whomever comes my way. I do my best to facilitate a warm, trusting environment. I received my Bachelors degree in Child Psychology, working initially with the adolescent population before transitioning over to adults. I then received my Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy. Looking forward to meeting with you soon!

Hi, I'm Kim. I'm a warm, compassionate, and down-to-earth therapist who believes that healing begins with feeling seen, heard, and understood. As an immigrant and bilingual professional, I understand that life's transitions can bring unexpected challenges, uncertainty, and feelings of being caught between different expectations or versions of yourself. I know how difficult it can be to ask for help when you're used to carrying so much on your own.
My approach to therapy is collaborative, authentic, and nonjudgmental. I want you to feel comfortable showing up as you are, without pressure to have everything figured out. Together, we'll explore what's weighing on you, recognize the patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and build on the strengths you already have. I believe growth doesn't mean having all the answers; it means learning to navigate life's challenges with greater self-awareness, confidence, and self-compassion.
In our work together, I'll combine empathy with practical, evidence-based strategies tailored to your needs and goals. Whether you're navigating anxiety, difficult life transitions, relationship challenges, or feeling disconnected from yourself, my goal is to help you develop healthier coping skills, strengthen your relationships, and create meaningful change. You don't have to figure everything out on your own. Therapy can be a place to pause, reconnect with yourself, and take steps toward a life that feels more balanced and fulfilling.
