I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I hold my Masters degree from Alliance Graduate School of Counseling.
I have clinical experience treating individuals, couples, adolescents, children and families. I have treated various mental health disorders, such as, anxiety, depression, bi-polar, trauma, eating disorders, OCD and PTSD as well as couple and family conflict.
I'm Dan, a licensed mental health counselor with more than 10 years working with people across a wide range of concerns. My style is warm and casual, and clients consistently tell me I'm easy to talk with.

Hi my name is Celina Patterson. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 8 years of experience working with teens, adults, BIPOC clients, and educators navigating trauma, anxiety, or depression. Many of my clients have held it together for so long that they don't know how to put it down — and reaching out for support takes real courage. As someone who has also worked full-time in a school setting for years, I have a deep understanding of the compassion fatigue that comes with caring for others professionally, and I hold particular space for educators and school staff. I offer a judgment-free space where you are seen, heard, and valued.
Seeking help for your mental health is a courageous first step, and I'm honored to be part of that journey. My goal is to create a welcoming, judgment-free space where you feel heard, respected, and supported as we work together toward meaningful and lasting change.
I am Promise Awe, MSN, PMHNP-BC, a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 16 years of healthcare experience. I provide compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric care for adults, and older adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, OCD, insomnia, trauma-related conditions, and other mental health concerns. I also have experience supporting individuals living with dementia and behavioral symptoms associated with aging.
My approach is collaborative and personalized because I believe that no two people are the same. I take time to understand your unique experiences, goals, and challenges before developing a treatment plan tailored to your needs. Whether treatment includes medication management, supportive therapy, lifestyle strategies, or a combination of approaches, my focus is helping you feel better while empowering you to take an active role in your care.
Whether you're seeking help for the first time or looking for a new provider who truly listens, I look forward to partnering with you. Together, we'll work toward improving your mental wellness, strengthening your resilience, and helping you live a healthier, more fulfilling life.
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 am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker–R (LCSW-R) with over 20 years of experience in the social work field. Since becoming licensed as an LMSW in 2005 and advancing to LCSW-R, I have developed a diverse clinical background working with individuals across the lifespan in settings including inpatient psychiatric care, medical social work, skilled nursing facilities, schools, and outpatient mental health.
My varied experience has allowed me to work with children, adolescents, adults, and families facing a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, stress, relationship concerns, self-esteem issues, life transitions, and difficulties adjusting to change. My graduate training included a specialization in health, providing me with additional insight into the connection between physical and emotional well-being.
I believe therapy is a collaborative process built on trust, compassion, and respect. I strive to create a safe, supportive environment where clients feel heard and understood. My approach is individualized, helping clients gain insight, develop effective coping strategies, and build upon their strengths.
I utilize evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), strengths-based therapy, solution-focused therapy, and mindfulness-based techniques. My goal is to support clients in creating meaningful change and moving toward a more balanced and fulfilling life.
As a licensed mental health counselor and 3 years of experience, I have worked with a wide-range of mental health and life change challenges, including training in the treatment of trauma. I am passionate about creating an affirming space for exploring identity and culture.
I specialize in working with clients who feel stuck, disconnected from their body, or who carry an extensive trauma history. Whether you’re highly analytical and struggling to drop into your body, or finding it hard to feel and name your emotions, I offer approaches that meet you where you are. Using somatic and body-based methods, including movement, mindfulness, imagery, and metaphor, I help clients access their inner world, integrate difficult experiences, and break through old patterns.
