I believe everyone deserves to feel healthy, balanced, and fulfilled. I provide a supportive, confidential space for individuals and couples to explore their mental and emotional well-being.
As a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-C) and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC), I offer a holistic approach to care—integrating therapy with medication management when appropriate to support the whole person.
With over 11 years of healthcare experience across a variety of settings, I bring both clinical expertise and a compassionate, patient-centered approach to treatment. Recognizing the growing need for mental health support, I pursued advanced training in psychiatric care to better serve individuals navigating stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and life transitions.
My goal is to help you feel heard, supported, and empowered as you work toward meaningful, lasting change.
I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC). I have a Bachelor of Science Degree in Psychology from University of Maryland University College, a Master of Science Degree in Marriage & Family Counseling Therapy and a PhD in Advanced Studies in Human Behavior from Capella University.
I specialize in working with couples experiencing communication difficulties, conflict, trust issues, infidelity, intimacy concerns, life transitions, and relationship distress. I work with couples of all backgrounds and identities and provide an LGBTQIA+ affirming and inclusive environment.
I believe therapy should be a place where you feel supported, but also challenged to grow. I strive to create an environment where clients feel heard and understood while also encouraging honest reflection, personal accountability, and meaningful change. My goal is to help couples strengthen their connection, improve communication, rebuild trust, and create healthier ways of relating to one another.
Please note that I offer couples therapy on a self-pay basis only. Insurance companies generally reimburse services that are tied to an individual's mental health diagnosis and do not typically cover relationship or couples counseling. My fee for couples therapy is $150 per session.
Hi, I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with experience in both hospital and outpatient care. I work with adults dealing with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, substance use and more. I’m warm, easy to talk to, and I take time to really listen so you feel heard and supported. My approach is simple—we meet you where you are and work together on a plan that fits your life. I’m committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based care and look forward to partnering with you on your mental health journey.
I provide a thoughtful, intentional space for clients to explore, heal, and grow. My approach blends evidence-based practices with a deep respect for each client’s story, helping them move toward clarity, emotional balance, and a more aligned way of living.
I’m Lindsay Bitto, a Doctorate-prepared Nurse Practitioner with over 15 years of experience in patient care. I am double board-certified in Family Practice and Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing, which allows me to take a holistic, patient-centered approach to healthcare.
With 10 years of specialized experience in adult gastroenterology, I have developed a deep interest in the complex relationship between the brain and gut interaction, particularly how these disorders impact overall health. By blending my expertise in psychiatry and gastroenterology, I can provide integrated care for individuals with complex gastrointestinal and psychiatric conditions. I believe that effective care goes beyond treating symptoms; it’s about understanding the whole person and addressing the root causes of illness.
I’m a licensed therapist and founder of Sitting Together Therapy (sitting-together.com), and I help adults build a more compassionate, connected, and honest relationship with themselves. I view difficult patterns as adaptive, not defective. I work with thoughtful people navigating anxiety and depression, relationship challenges, emotionally blocked, avoidance, and life transitions.
Hi, I’m Kia McMillion, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a passion for helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and achieve personal growth. With years of experience in mental health, I specialize in working with adults, using a strengths-based approach to empower my clients.
