Therapist

Hi, I’m Nicole, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Substance Abuse Treatment Provider (LSATP) with over 25 years of experience in behavioral health. I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling and Psychology and have worked with individuals navigating a wide range of emotional and life challenges.


I specialize in working with teens, college students and

adults experiencing anxiety, stress, burnout, life transitions, relationship challenges, trauma, and substance use. I am also passionate about supporting women through major life shifts, including boundary work, identity changes, and wellness-related concerns.


My approach is practical, supportive, and direct. I provide a safe space where you can be honest, gain clarity, and develop tools you can actually use in your daily life.

Many of my clients are used to being strong for others but are now feeling overwhelmed or stuck. Together, we focus on building healthier boundaries, improving communication, and creating balance.


If you’re ready to do the work, I’m here to support you.

Hi, I’m Roxi, a mom to grown people, a sister to seven siblings, and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I listed my LPC last not because it’s not important but because along my life’s journey and more than thirty plus years of human service and social work experience, I have a lot of practical life and clinical expertise that I’ve accumulated over the years. My LPC allows me to share my experiences with others and with that, I am walking and working in my purpose.

Hi, I’m Marlane.

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to face life’s challenges alone. I provide a safe, supportive space for individuals and families navigating stress, trauma, emotional challenges, and substance use concerns.

With over five years of experience supporting clients in crisis, I use a collaborative approach tailored to your unique needs.

My goal is to help you feel empowered, resilient, and confident as you move forward.
