Wayne Lyons
Wayne has been working with our son for months. We have seen consistent improvements over time and whenever we speak with Wayne, he is very insightful and helpful with his suggestions. I would highly recommend him for anyone that wants to work with someone who always has a positive attitude.

she/her/hersMy passion is to create a space to explore the challenges of diagnoses and life.
This is her grandmother, and I really appreciate that her therapist discussed some options with me. The sessions continue to be very helpful.

Rebecca Villegas
My daughter came out of first session and said “I really like her…she’s easy to talk to”

Diana Samano
A Safe Space to Be Heard and Supported
I like that she reached out to let me know to pay special attention to alyssa after she was very upset w her friend group for leaving her out

Jessica Smiley
Encouraging Resilient Young People
It was our first meeting with Jessica and it went pretty smoothly. It was a good experience and we look forward to the sessions to help with what she is feeling day to day.

Dr. Jon Skidmore
I teach the skills to face your fears and bring your best-self forward.
I felt very comfortable opening up, much quicker than I expected. We unpacked a lot in 60 minutes, and I have a few helpful things to think about before our next session. The biggest thing was shifting my mindset to the fact that I'm in charge of my emotions, and not letting others actions, or inactions guide my "boat."

Dr. Liz Nitsch
The session was overall very helpful and i enjoyed talking with Liz. She walked me through each question and even related on some topics. She is very flexible and understanding and will assist with scheduling when she can.

Takahya Mcintyre
It was helpful talking it out. It was challenging coming up with a goal since I’ve never been to therapy

Jamie Blakeman
Helping kids, teens, and families find calm, confidence and connection.
She is wonderful at getting my son to open up both to her and to us. Post session, he expressed that I had hurt his feelings and asked why I’d said something to him earlier…this type of communication is something that is going to help out whole family moving forward and we are so appreciative of the work Jamie does!

Alicia Severins
We are so grateful to have found Alicia. From the very first appointment, she made both our child and our family feel comfortable and supported. She takes the time to truly listen not only to us as parents, but also to our child’s thoughts and feelings. Her calm, compassionate approach has helped our child open up in ways we hadn’t seen before.

Dr. Jaclyn Bowes
Very detailed information about next steps. Also felt a good connection to the provider even though it was a remote appointment

Kathleen Meyers
Guiding individuals and families towards a healthier and happier lives
Sabastian felt that this was one of his best sessions. He said that he needed to be reminded of things and that he found it very helpful that his parents talked to his therapist beforehand.
