I'm interested in helping you become your best, authentic self - whatever that looks like! Therapy is about relationships -- the relationship between therapist and client as well as the relationship the client has with themselves and others. My goal as a therapist is for you to feel seen, heard, and understood and to take that capacity and generalize it throughout your lived experience. As a therapist, I examine your memories, perceptions, and presence to paint a vibrant picture of who you are.
I help clients explore their sense of self, accept who they are, and live a fulfilling life. Whether you’re figuring out identities, like gender and sexuality, recovering from trauma related to relationships, sex, or gender and sexuality, or having other sexual concerns, I can support you through the healing process. It is an honor and a privilege to be invited into the most sensitive parts of life to work towards a sense of safety, fun, and authenticity.
I have been in the mental health field since 2017 and am passionate about meeting my clients where they are at, jumping in the trenches with them, and helping them navigate life’s challenges. I strive to help clients better understand their thoughts, beliefs, and patterns while providing the support and guidance they need to create meaningful change. I have experience working with individuals across the lifespan and with a diverse range of population, with a passion in working with young adults.
Hi, I’m Elaine! I’m a Clinical Mental Health Counselor who works with adults, couples, and military families navigating life’s ups and downs. I have a Bachelors of Science in Psychology, and a Masters of Science in Marriage, Couples and Family Counseling with an addendum of Crisis and Trauma Counseling.
Many of my clients come to me struggling with relationship challenges (like communication struggles, Parenting conflicts and infidelity), trauma, PTSD, anxiety, or depression—feeling stuck, disconnected, or unsure how to move forward. My goal is to help you feel supported, understood, and equipped to create the changes you want in your life
I am a compassionate and dedicated Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over two decades of experience across a wide range of therapeutic settings, including family, adolescent, individual, group, adult, outpatient, residential, and day programs. I help clients enhance their quality of life by using evidence-based therapeutic approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.
I believe that therapy should be a safe, judgment-free space where you feel seen, heard, and supported. I work from a person-centered approach, meaning our relationship comes first—I strive to create an environment where you can show up exactly as you are. I specialize in working with individuals who experience intense emotions, relationship challenges, and patterns that feel difficult to change, including those navigating borderline personality disorder (BPD). I am trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), which helps build skills in emotional regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and interpersonal effectiveness. I am also working towards the last few years of my doctoral work in marriage and family therapy. I am a certified domestic violence therapist working with survivors and perpetrators of domestic violence.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Masters degree in Social Work. The areas I have emphasized further training on have been childhood abuse and trauma and the trauma disorders these experiences can cause such as CPTSD, PTSD, and Dissociative Disorders. I am also deeply interested in helping individuals who have been late diagnosed with ADHD and/or Autism to better understand how their brain works and how to approach life differently.
“The green reed which bends in the wind is stronger than the mighty oak which breaks in a storm.”― Confucius. Have you felt that anxiety, depression, or trauma are stopping you from living the life you want and deserve? I utilize evidence-based practices with clients like Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approaches to develop more adaptive responses and cultivate lasting coping to help clients bend with the winds of life. I'm now accepting clients for both in-person and telehealth therapy, and accept many insurances.
I am a Mental Health Counselor, licensed in NY, MA, NJ, NH, RI, KS, UT, WI, IN, AR, and OR, with over 20 years experience in the counseling field. I have had experience assisting clients with a wide range of concerns, such as, parenting issues, family/personal relationships, grief/loss, depression, anxiety, and anger management.
I'm a wife, mom, stepmom, and grandma who loves spending time with family, being outdoors, and making meaningful memories. I believe that even in life's hardest seasons, peace is possible. I strive to bring that same warmth, hope, and authenticity into every session.
Hi, I’m Chandler Reed, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I work with adults facing a range of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, other mood disorders, and life transitions. My approach is collaborative and practical, combining medication management and therapy when helpful. I aim to create a calm, judgment-free space where you feel heard and supported.
Life is full of challenges both big and small. My goal in therapy is to create a safe space for individuals and families to feel empowered to take on whatever life brings them, whether it seems too overwhelming to handle or too minor to matter. Anything that matters to you is worth talking about.
I use a variety of therapeutic models to help in my work, with connection being at the core. I have experience working with anxiety, depression, grief/loss, trauma, faith crisis/transition, couple/family conflict, and LGBTQIA+ issues. I enjoy working with teens and young adults, but am open to seeing clients of all ages and backgrounds.
Welcome to therapy, let's get to work! I believe everyone deserves good therapy and I'm here to provide the guidance and structure needed to make lasting change in your life. I received my Masters in Social Work from the University of Utah in 2020 and have been working in the mental health field for over 10 years. I have specialized training in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (a sister approach to EMDR) for trauma treatment. If you visit me in office, you will get to meet my therapy dog, Java, who is always ready for a chat and snuggle.
