The kink, the late-night rabbit holes, the rogue 2:00 a.m. ADHD thoughts, and the strange, unspoken chapters of your life this is where they finally get to run wild. We aren't here to sand down your edges or fit you into a tidy little box. We are here to make mistakes, play with the pieces, and find strategic ways to tell your story so it feels entirely yours. I specialize in turning the surreal, overwhelming chaos of real life into clear, empowering magic, placing you squarely at the center of the narrative. My practice is built on a down-to-earth, deeply practical foundation that pairs deep trauma healing with real tools.

Welcome! My style is warm and eclectic. I draw from a variety of evidenced-based models, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Somatic and Attachment Focused EMDR, Motivational Interviewing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy to address your concerns and distressing symptoms. I am also a registered yoga teacher (RYT-200), and I enjoy integrating aspects of yoga, including mindfulness and a mind/body approach into therapy where appropriate.

I am a licensed mental health counselor and Certified Sex Therapist through the Sexual Health Alliance (SHA), specializing in trauma, relationships, sexual health and intimacy. I work with adults, individually and as couples, who are navigating emotional or sexual disconnection, relationship difficulties, communication concerns and the impact of painful experiences. I believe understanding your experiences, needs and relationships is an important part of creating meaningful and sustainable change.

I love working with people and helping them "grow" through the things of life that they "go" through. A quote that I love to share with clients and live by personally is to remember not to focus on your purpose but to live your life purposely. As a military social worker my background is specific to first responders, but most importantly individuals that are learning their new "normal" after traumatic life events that have unexpectedly shaped them.

Hello! My name is Dr. Shalandra Hollins. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I provide therapy for individuals, couples, and families. I use Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT), Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT), and attachment-based theory to help clients heal childhood wounds, relationship injuries, and begin to heal from emotionally painful experiences.

Hi, I'm Luke. I work with burned-out professionals, neurodivergent adults, LGBTQIA+ folx, and people navigating anxiety, depression, and relationship challenges — including healthcare workers and educators who spend their days caring for others but rarely turn that care inward. I use a trauma-informed, psychodynamic approach and bring my own lived experience as a queer and neurodivergent person to the work. I'm well-versed in non-monogamy, polyamory, and kink dynamics, and welcome clients who don't fit the mold of traditional therapy. I own and operate Radiant Waves Counseling and am licensed in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Texas.

Greetings!

I'm Corey, board-certified Psychiatric and Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to providing compassionate, comprehensive mental health care for individuals across the lifespan. At the heart of my practice is a commitment to truly listening to your story and working with you to create a personalized path toward healing, balance, and improved well-being.

With a strong foundation in both nursing and psychiatry, I offer an integrative approach to mental health that combines thoughtful medication management with supportive, therapeutic care. I work with individuals facing a range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, trauma, and stress-related conditions.

I believe in treating the whole person—not just symptoms. My approach is collaborative, respectful, and rooted in evidence-based practices. Whether you're seeking a new diagnosis, exploring treatment options, or need ongoing support to maintain your mental health, I strive to create a safe and welcoming space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered.

Clients often come to me because they value thoughtful insight, nonjudgmental support, creativity, and a results-oriented mindset. I believe that the right help—delivered with empathy and expertise—can make all the difference.

Taking the first step can feel overwhelming—but you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to help you move forward, with care that meets you where you are.

With 20 years in the healthcare field and 6 years in advanced practice, I bring a broad and diverse clinical background to my work.

As a dual-certified Psychiatric and Family Nurse Practitioner, I approach care through a unique lens—integrating physical health and emotional well-being.

This perspective allows me to recognize how chronic illnesses, hormonal imbalances, and inflammation can mimic or even contribute to psychiatric symptoms. It also gives me a front-row seat to witness profound transformation.

In my practice, I take an inclusive, mind-body approach to psychiatry to improve clinical outcomes and empower patients.
