If anxiety, depression, or the weight of past trauma has started to feel like it's steering your life instead of you, that's exactly where I do my best work. I'm Erica, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, and I think of myself as your therapeutic GPS — you set the destination, and I help you find the route. I work with children, teens, adults, and couples, and I bring genuine respect, real-world knowledge, and yes, some humor to every session, because feeling comfortable with your therapist actually matters for getting better.
Hi, I’m Nicole! Therapy with me is about real conversations, practical tools, and accountability. Clients often tell me they appreciate that I’m down-to-earth, supportive, and won’t let them slide. I bring a diverse background of both life and professional experience, allowing me to see multiple perspectives and help you navigate complex relationship dynamics. Please note, we aren’t offering couples’ sessions at this time.
Counseling is teamwork. I have a person-centered approach to therapy focused on collaboration. Bringing over 15 years of experience in behavioral health working with individuals, couples, and families.
I work with clients handling life transitions, stress and anxiety management, exploring self identity, adult ADHD, Bipolar disorder, and exploring sexual orientation and identity.
I provide counseling for couples handling challenges with life transitions, infidelity, premarital counseling, sex and intimacy coaching, communication, vulnerability, financial literacy and co-parenting.
I am LGBTQI+, KINK, and Poly affirming.
I am a compassionate person, who currently serves as a Travel Social Worker, where I provide essential individual and group therapy to clients in need by focusing on clinical assessments and crisis interventions. I ensure that clients experiencing self-injurious behaviors receive ongoing support. My commitment to improving mental health is further highlighted by my role as Clinical Director at Pinnacle Point Supportive Services, where I was instrumental for 14 years. In this position, I overseen a team of therapists, facilitate therapy sessions for both children and adults, and engage in court-related matters. With a strong foundation in therapy and clinical supervision, I have developed skills in treatment planning, documentation, and quality assurance.
As a working parent and spouse, I can relate to how stressed and overwhelming dealing with daily life can be. I’ve spent over 15 years in the counseling field helping individuals, families, and couples navigate everything from daily stress to mental health conditions like anxiety, depression, ADHD, and trauma related disorders. I’m practical and realistic in my approach and love to walk through life with the clients I meet.
You may look like you're holding everything together. But inside, you're exhausted.
Your mind won't slow down. You're replaying conversations, worrying about your child, trying to keep up with work and family, or wondering why things that used to feel manageable suddenly feel so difficult.
Maybe your child or teenager is struggling with anxiety, ADHD, big emotions, school, friendships, or changes at home—and you're not sure what else to try.
Or maybe you're the one everyone depends on, and you've become so focused on taking care of everyone else that you've stopped feeling like yourself.
You don't have to wait until things get worse to get support.
I'm Cynthia High-Gutierrez, LCSW, a bilingual English/Spanish therapist with more than 10 years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families.
I specialize in helping people navigate anxiety, depression, ADHD/neurodiversity, stress, trauma, relationship and family challenges, women's issues, and major life transitions.
My background in public schools, school-based mental health, hospitals, and outpatient therapy gives me a unique perspective—especially when emotional health, family life, relationships, work, and school begin affecting one another.
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master's degree from the University of South Carolina and over 5 years of clinical experience working with adolescents and adults. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and life transitions—and I'm passionate about helping clients navigate the challenges that feel overwhelming.
I have been a Social Worker for 30 years! That's crazy for me to think about because I am not THAT old......and I have learned a lot (about myself) along the way. I have learned that I do like to talk to people more than I let on. I have learned that I can be very patient listener and I give good feedback. And, I have learned that, at some point, we all have to make changes in our lives and that can be scary. I have also learned it's not as scary when we talk about it out loud........just saying.
I help clients regain their sense of power, purpose, and passion in every aspect of their lives. I believe each one of us have been given the ability to transform our lives to where we are not just living, we are thriving! I hope to help clients by connecting them to what they truly want out of their relationships, starting with how they see and relate to self.
I like people. I want people to see the value in themselves and others. I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker with more than 25 years of experience as a psychotherapist, clinical social worker, family court expert, and education advocate. My experience allows me to identify and therapeutically process subtleties, complexities, and inconsistencies in an individual's presentation, without judgment. We are human, and what life gives us, whether through biology or social circumstances, can be extremely challenging. No problem is too big or too small to be overwhelming or insignificant.
