I’m Crachelle Gates, a Licensed Professional Counselor passionate about walking alongside individuals through their most difficult and transformative seasons. I specialize in working with children ages 6–12, teens, adolescents, and adults who are navigating challenges related to ADHD, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, family dynamics, and relationship issues. In our work together, I help clients take ownership of their experiences, regulate emotions, strengthen relationships, and uncover new paths forward. My approach is rooted in compassion and respect, using solution-focused therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Mindfulness therapy, and person-centered therapy to meet each individual where they are. The first session is all about building a relationship grounded in trust, empathy, and unconditional positive regard. My goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you or your child feel truly seen, heard, and supported. What sets my practice apart is that it’s not just therapy—it’s an extension of who I am: empathetic, intentional, and deeply committed to your growth and healing.

As a clinician who has been working with families and individuals for over 15 years, I believe that transformation happens on two levels: the conscious and the subconscious. As a result, I approach sessions with a unique approach. Rather than simply educating clients on alternative techniques and habits to consciously adjust, I also assist them in getting to the root of their struggles. These struggles are often buried deep in the subconscious. I enjoy empowering my clients with tools and insights on both levels to bring lasting change. Whether it be through education, practical tools, or healthy challenges, my goal is to help you experience peace of mind!

If you or your teen is feeling overwhelmed, stuck in patterns of distraction, stress, or constant conflict. This might be a good place to start. I specialize in working with teens, young adults, and parents. My therapy services start with the individual who’s struggling most (often with ADHD, anxiety, or burnout) and then bring in the family to strengthen communication and support. My clients often tell me that within just a few sessions, things start to feel lighter, the pressure eases, and communication improves. Before becoming a therapist, I spent over a decade in schools as a teacher and counselor, so I’ve seen firsthand how ADHD and big emotions can impact learning, confidence, and family life. That background shapes how I work. I get the full picture, not just the symptoms in a session. I know how overwhelming life can feel when everything seems like too much and you’re trying to keep it all together. My therapy style is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to your needs. I offer a space that’s warm, real, and encouraging.

Hi there! I’m Corey, a Licensed Professional Counselor. My goal is to create a space where you can just be you—no masks, no filters, and definitely no pressure to have it all figured out. Life is messy, identity is complicated, and sometimes we all just need a place to untangle it all with someone who gets it. I love working with teenagers and young adults and anyone exploring who they are, especially around identity, self-worth, and cultural or generational experiences. If you’ve ever felt like you don’t quite fit in a box (or like you were handed a bunch of boxes and none of them felt right), you're in the right place. As a mixed-race individual, I understand what it’s like to feel caught between worlds—and how empowering it can be to reclaim your story. My approach is warm, collaborative, and a little eclectic—because let’s be real, healing isn’t one-size-fits-all. I use a mix of somatic work, inner child healing, mindfulness, cognitive behavior therapy, and humor (yes, therapy can include laughing!). I believe in the power of showing up as your full self and learning to be kind to that self, even on the hard days. Together, we’ll explore what healing looks like for you—whether that’s working through anxiety, depression, navigating life transitions, or learning how to take up space unapologetically. Therapy doesn’t have to be stiff or scary; it can be real, supportive, and sometimes even a little fun.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 7 years of experience, I specialize in working with children and tweens who are navigating anxiety, big feelings, friendship struggles, life transitions, and trauma. My goal is to create a space where your child feels safe to be themselves—no pressure, no judgment, just understanding and support. I believe that behavior is communication. I work closely with both children and parents to uncover the “why” beneath the surface—because meltdowns, withdrawal, or defiance are often signs of deeper emotional needs. Using a blend of play-based interventions, emotion regulation tools, and family collaboration, I help kids build confidence, learn coping skills, and feel empowered in their world. I also support parents with guidance, strategies, and honest conversations—because you're doing the best you can, and you don’t have to do it alone. Whether your child is shy, sensitive, strong-willed, or somewhere in between, I tailor therapy to meet their unique personality and needs. My sessions are virtual, making therapy flexible and accessible from the comfort of home. Let’s work together to help your child thrive.
