I believe people are capable of surviving adversities of life and succeeding. There are no perfect people. We all need love and acceptance and through working together all things are possible.
I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 10 years of experience helping children, families and adults navigate life's challenges. My approach is warm, collaborative, and solution-focused, and I tailor therapy to each client's unique strengths and goals. I also have experience supporting individuals coping with anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship concerns and complex medical challenges, helping them build practical skills and create meaningful, lasting change. I especially enjoy working with adults, including women who are pregnant, postpartum or adjusting to motherhood.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Doctorate in Social Work, and I bring both clinical expertise and real life understanding into the therapy space. My professional background includes years of direct clinical practice as well as leadership roles in complex, high stress systems, including serving as a Mental Health Director. These experiences have shaped my ability to support individuals who are navigating pressure, responsibility, and emotional overwhelm while still being expected to function at a high level.
I work best with clients who are strong on the outside but struggling internally. Many of the people I support are women, mothers, professionals, caregivers, and helpers who are used to showing up for others while neglecting their own emotional needs. I have a particular passion for working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, imposter syndrome, burnout, life transitions, relationship stress, identity concerns, and trauma related to past or ongoing stressors.
Therapy with me is not about having all the answers. It is about learning how to trust yourself, set healthy boundaries, and show up for your life with more compassion and confidence.
You can’t break out of a cage you’re still trying to decorate. I’ve been many people’s 4th/5th/8th/9th therapist and been told they felt like something finally clicked for them. I care about it clicking. My approach is based on self-compassion and living an integrated life. Even if you’re motivated to change, it’s still hard because negative events can shape beliefs about the world and ourselves that we often don’t even realize we hold. So we start with self-compassion, and then work on trying to bring our actions into alignment with our goals. I’ve been a therapist for over a decade now, and I promise – self-compassion is the move.
I graduated from Antioch University in 2017 with a MA in Couple and Family Therapy and a Certificate in Play Therapy. I specialize in treating and supporting those who struggle with life transitions, anxiety, and depression. I use EMDR, CBT, and person-centered counseling in my work.
Hi I'm Beck. I'm a clinical social worker who specializes in working with individuals around relationship challenges and adult attachment concerns, trauma, life transitions, identity exploration, and mental health during infertility and pregnancy.
Hi! I'm a doctorally prepared Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Certified Nurse Midwife!
I work with individuals across the lifespan experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, burnout, hormone-related mood changes, and major life transitions. I take a thoughtful, personalized approach to understanding your concerns and develop an integrative care plan that considers the many factors influencing your mental health and well-being. My goal is not just symptom relief - it's helping you feel like yourself again.
¡Hola! I'm Leidy, a bilingual (English and Spanish) therapist. I work with adults navigating major life transitions, grief and loss, fertility issues, anxiety, depression, PTSD, family transitions and more. Many of the people I work with are in the middle of something big, whether that's a loss, a shift in their family, a fertility journey, or simply a season of life that feels heavier than expected, and they're looking for a space where they can finally exhale.
I'm originally from the Dominican Republic, and Spanish is my first language. As an immigrant myself, I understand what it's like to navigate multiple worlds, identities, and expectations. I'm also the proud parent of a son with autism, so I know firsthand what it's like to walk through major life transitions, advocate for your family, and find strength you didn't know you had. These experiences shape the way I show up for my clients every day.
My background is rooted in community work. I spent years in non-profit organizations supporting diverse communities, and that experience taught me the importance of meeting people where they are, honoring their culture, language, strengths, and identities. I believe in creating individualized treatment plans that reflect the whole of who you are.
I'm Erika Preston, an LMHC with over 11 years of experience in the field. Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of working in a variety of settings, allowing me to develop a diverse skill set and a deep understanding of the complexities of mental health. My specialization encompasses a range of areas, including depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, trauma, life dissatisfaction, postpartum challenges, low self-esteem, and addiction.
