Our sessions with Eduardo have been incredibly helpful. Through multiple mini-sessions, he provided consistent support and practical strategies that have significantly helped my son navigate ADHD and ODD. Eduardo’s compassionate approach created a safe space for my son to express himself, leading to dramatic progress in his behavior and confidence. We’re truly grateful for his ongoing guidance.

We had a lot of technical issues connecting on Zoom for up to 18-20 minutes but once the session started I liked Mason's direct approach and how he was able to listen and provide a treatment plan and strategy. I like that he is direct and I like how he built rapport and how he interacted with Bianca..

Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)

You’ve been the strong one for so long—holding everything together, pushing through, and putting your needs last. But lately, you’re feeling emotionally drained, anxious, disconnected, or just not like yourself. You might be questioning your worth, stuck in survival mode, or struggling to break free from cycles that no longer serve you. If that sounds familiar, you’re in the right place. I help women and teen girls heal from anxiety, depression, trauma, and low self-esteem so they can feel more confident, grounded, and whole. As a therapist, I show up with warmth, compassion, and a deep respect for your lived experience. My approach is collaborative and culturally responsive—meaning I see you as the expert of your life, and we work together to untangle what’s holding you back. I integrate evidence-based practices like CBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care to support emotional healing, self-discovery, and lasting change. Many of my clients are high-achieving, self-aware women who feel overwhelmed by pressure, guilt, or people-pleasing. Others are teen girls trying to find their voice and make sense of complicated emotions, relationships, or family dynamics. I specialize in helping you unlearn survival habits, set healthy boundaries, and step into a more peaceful, authentic version of yourself. Therapy with me is a judgment-free space where you don’t have to shrink, perform, or have it all figured out. Just come as you are—and together, we’ll do the work to help you feel emotionally lighter, more regulated, and deeply rooted in your resilience.

For more than thirty years, my life’s work has helped clients achieve freedom—both on their favorite "stage" and in their lives. My practical, action-oriented approach to therapy is a unique balance of gentleness and challenge. I specialize in building resilience, guiding clients to face their fears, overcoming limiting beliefs, processing grief, and taking charge of their lives. My work integrates the essential task of addressing unresolved “stuff” from the past with the development of skills to create a vibrant and fulfilling future. I deeply value the power of meaningful relationships. I love coaching parents and partners committed to bettering themselves, to better their relationships. I believe the relationship we cultivate with ourselves deserves equal care and compassion. Together, we’ll uncover your “best self” and bring it forward to navigate the challenges of today’s world. It would be my privilege to be your healing partner on your adventure today.

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.

She has taught him to communicate his emotions better to avoid frustrations and meltdowns. My husband and I also speaks with her about our son and she gives us insights on what to do to improve our relationship with our children. She is the best at what she does and we’re so grateful for her!

Hello! I'm so glad you're here! With 20 years in public education—10 as a teacher and 10 as a school counselor—I have dedicated my life to supporting children, families, and couples through the ups and downs of life. Now, as a licensed therapist, I bring that same passion and commitment to the clinical setting, offering a space where healing, growth, and self-acceptance can flourish. My approach is deeply rooted in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) because I believe in the power of mindfulness and radical acceptance to bring peace and clarity. I also integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help reframe unhelpful thoughts and promote positive change, as well as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to guide clients in embracing life's challenges with courage and resilience. Therapy is a journey, and I would love to walk it with you. Whether you're navigating family dynamics, seeking stronger connections in your relationship, or working through personal struggles, I offer a compassionate, evidence-based approach tailored to your needs. You don't have to do this alone—let's work together toward healing and growth. Reach out to get started! I can't wait to meet you!

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.
