We all face challenging moments in our lives—whether we are experiencing anxiety or sadness, difficulty coping with life events, conflictual relationships, or a desire for a greater self-esteem.  As a therapist, I can help you identify your unique gifts and needs, free you from maladaptive patterns, examine your past, and allow you to take charge of your life story. The power of therapy and our therapeutic relationship can get you moving. After all, sometimes we need an objective listener, someone to validate us, challenge us, and offer new perspectives. The same applies to kids and I often utilize play for assessing and treatment.

Hi! I am a compassionate Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to bringing boundless energy to therapy. With certifications in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and strength-based theories, I offer a positive, empathetic, and energetic approach. From children to adults, I focus on the therapeutic relationship, tailoring treatment to each unique individual. Owning my practice, Third Coast Therapy, allows me the flexibility to prioritize your needs and offer personalized care. I welcome the opportunity to support you on your journey to healing and growth!

Congratulation on taking the first step towards change! Wherever you're at in your journey, seeking out counseling requires courage. My approach is to offer support and guidance through life's challenges. I help clients willing to review their life story, reconsider the narrative and find empowerment through their difficult experiences.

Anxiety and stress are pervasive in our society. Whether your challenges evolve from your career, personal, or familial life, I have many techniques and strategies that can help you manifest the life you want to live. If you are ready to release fear and embrace peace, identify and remove obstacles to living your full potential, and open to making a real shift in your life - I invite you to work with me.

Perhaps you have considered counseling for some time and are finally ready to take action. Often times making that initial call is the most challenging part of the process. Whether you are a teenager working on navigating your way through high school or college, a young adult stepping out into the world, or an adult dealing with parenting and stressful life events, I recognize the stress and anxiety that goes along with growing up and dealing with transitions and life events. My goal is to provide a warm and trusting relationship in which each client feels safe to openly share their thoughts, feeling, and challenges.

I am passionate about undoing loneliness, increasing one's capacity to self-love and care, create and maintain healthy and loving relationships and co-create the narrative to become the best version of yourself. When we understand and accept ourselves, growth and healing can occur!.

Dr. Joshua Nathan, Board Certified Psychiatrist, sees stigma as the the biggest challenge in mental illness treatment - from others and from ourselves. He encourages people to not judge themselves on whatever problems they are facing, and he helps them feel safe to open up and allow for healing. Dr. Nathan takes joy in helping people with mental health concerns and values the trust patients place in him.

Trust, transparency, and communication are the pillars to connection, self-discovery and meaningful growth. My passion lies in my ability to build these connections with children and their families through empathy and understanding. My years of experience as a School Psychologist have affords me the unique perspective of how to support the whole child, through building connections between home, school and the community. I work with you to identify strengths and work towards solutions by changing thought processes, modifying behaviors, and understanding emotional regulation.

Most people seek therapy because they are disappointed in a relationship, or have lost someone important to them. Often, this experience reactivates old hurts and losses which weaken feelings of self-worth. I work to help that person restore a sense of self-appreciation, to deepen their self-understanding, and enhance their relationships with others.

We all experience trauma in our lives, and sometimes severe life stressors leave us feeling stuck. As an ally, teacher, and therapist, Lori collaborates with you to go from surviving to thriving. She understands that healing is dynamic, and provides a mind-body-spirit approach to treatment. Therapy is an opportunity to honor our experience and become friends with ourselves. Lori uses a combination of holistic modalities including EMDR, clinical hypnotherapy and movement to tackle core issues.

It is my belief that everyone deserves the privilege of living their best life as their most authentic self! I work with all people; adolescents into adulthood to help understand the root cause of the issue. I am an affirming therapist welcoming all people where they are in their lives at this moment.

Life can feel overwhelming when you're faced with loss or change. As much as you try to adjust, it can be scary and confusing to realize that life isn't turning out the way you had planned. Life stress -- such as divorce or relationship loss, death of a loved one, job loss, illness, caregiving -- happens to most of us at some point and it can seem nearly impossible to bounce back from such heartache.

Are you struggling but don't know where to turn? When you talk to friends do you feel judged or worried about burdening them with your problems? Maybe you feel that low self-esteem is preventing you from having fulfilling relationships. These are common problems that many people face but you can learn to feel better about yourself, let go of old hurts and change how you react to challenging situations in the future. These changes are possible and you can get the support you need to develop effective coping strategies and get your life on track.

It seems like you've got it together but nobody seems to realize you're floundering. They don't know what's inside: a tally of every failure, a plan for every what if, chronic worry, fear and insecurity and thoughts- so many thoughts! It's impossible to focus. You may play a lot of roles: spouse, friend, parent, employee, entrepreneur- it's crazymaking! It can be easy to lose the YOU in all of this. You were a person before you became the social chameleon you're required to be right now. The anxious feeling never goes away and you don't know what to do, so you suffer quietly. You don't have to stay here.

Hope is better when it's combined with a plan. If you're having too many fights without resolution, I can help you. I help couples figure out how to resolve stuff once and for all. Even when you're successful in most areas of life, It's hard to be happy when problems are chronically unresolved. It's even worse when the past hangs over the relationship, or you feel like room-mates. If your relationship problems are weighing down your otherwise great life, then counseling can make a big difference.

It is my privilege to help my clients navigate life's daily struggles and major transitions. Specifically, I work with clients experiencing depression and anxiety, as well as clients seeking to learn better coping skills, communication techniques and problem-solving strategies. As a trained divorce mediator, I am particularly passionate and well versed in the complicated process of divorce. From individual healing and decision-making to parenting and co-parenting, I am passionate about helping people manage this transition with grace, strength and mindfulness. I recognize that each person who walks through my door is a complex individual with a unique story to tell.

Do you feel your life doesn't reflect your hopes and dreams? Do your relationships lack the satisfaction & warmth you wish and deserve? Are you finding it challenging to be the spouse or parent you want to be? Have you been diagnosed with a medical condition and struggling to adjust? Are you caring for a loved one with an illness and feeling the stress? As your partner and guide, I can help you remove unhealthy patterns and develop more constructive ways of coping. I can assist you in feeling happier, more resilient in the face of life challenges, developing stronger relationships and achieving your full potential.

Everyone has the capacity to reach their full potential. But sometimes, life throws us off course or leaves us feeling stuck. If you're an adult navigating stressful or even traumatizing experiences, you don’t have to go through it alone. Together, we can create a plan that helps you move forward, rediscover your strength, and embrace the life you deserve

Does it seem like everyone else got the manual on life except for you? Perhaps you are contemplating a major life change like divorce or a career change. Feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, and disconnected you may feel like everything is falling apart. There is a solution. If you have willingness and an open-mind, I can help you see things differently so that you get "unstuck," feel hopeful and confident.
