Hello! I'm Angela and I'm here to help you improve your mental health, decrease your stress, and live your life with more joy and purpose!

Hello! A little about me, I am a trained EMDR therapist, seeking to help individuals work through past traumatic or problematic events that are causing current distress. I am also passionate about working with women or couples struggling with sexual-related issues regarding intimacy, trauma, sexual functioning, discomfort, purity culture, or shame surrounding this topic.

The journey of healing can be a daunting path, I strive to provide a safe and authentic environment in which I can walk alongside you as you explore your own story, and through it, find yourself.

The word renaissance literally means rebirth. So many things in our lives we were born into and did not get to choose; like our parents, our siblings, our homes, our genetics, nor the hand of fate in our lives. Yet there are many things we now get to choose; such as how we relate, the meanings we make, what we choose to believe about ourselves and others, and the decisions we make as a result. We began to write our rule book of life, long before we even knew how to write, and often we don’t realize we are still playing by those same rules that may no longer serve us. Now we can choose differently and free ourselves up to win.

Every journey to healing begins with a single step. As a bilingual therapist, I am committed to providing a safe and supportive space where we'll navigate life's challenges together. Through our collaborative efforts, we'll uncover your inner strength, untangle emotional knots, and foster profound transformations. My goal is to empower you to embrace life's uncertainties with confidence and resilience. Let's embark on this transformative journey hand in hand, as you uncover your true potential and forge a path towards a happier, more fulfilling future. Reclaim your well-being!

Jeanna started her career in mental health as a psychiatric case manager and then transitioned to a mental health therapist working for an outpatient clinic (office and school-based clients). She has been working in mental health for more than seven years and finds joy in helping others find their own path.

Do you feel that people don’t understand the impact your trauma has on your daily life and social interactions? Do you find it difficult to trust yourself, as well as others? Does your physical body hurt or feel detached from your mind? I treat the whole person, mind and body, and work not only to provide education for why you may think and feel the way you do, but also to work on symptom reduction and empowerment. I will work diligently to provide the most effective and efficient treatment for you, meeting you where you are, providing encouragement and challenging you to grow when needed.

We are often dealt circumstances that are beyond our understanding and personal control. Many of these experiences distort our perception of who we truly are. My practice focuses on liberation- by overcoming the impact of childhood trauma, shame, eating disorders, self-esteem, anxiety, or difficulty attaching (codependency or anti-dependency). My goal is to join you in your discovery that change is possible. Treatment formats include IFS (parts work), EMDR, Brainspotting, and experiential therapies by Pia Melody's work on childhood trauma/codependency.

I deeply value supporting you through your own unique healing process. I work primarily with adults experiencing symptoms of anxiety, depression, or distress associated with trauma or accumulated life events.

If you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or burn out, you don't have to navigate this difficult experience on your own. If you feel that your mental load is too heavy and you don't know where to begin, I can help.

It takes immense courage and bravery to seek therapy. From the first moment you step into my office, and throughout our work together, your strength is honored and respected. Therapy, to me, is a collaborative journey where I walk alongside of you every step of the way providing, support, insight, and space for growth. Together, we will navigate the challenges you face and navigate towards a more fulfilling life.

In life, we typically feel happiest when things are going exactly as we expect. Unfortunately, life and relationships rarely play out this way; leaving us feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and powerless to meet our everyday challenges. Making sense of and working through these stuck places can help rekindle love, intimacy, and a deeper connection within ourselves and with the others in our lives, leading to living more authentically. Stuck places might also look like divorce, grief or loss. I work collaboratively with individuals to help them gain the self-knowledge and skills to live less stressful and more fulfilling lives.

Tara Davis is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Tech-Assisted Counseling Certified (TACC) provider who works with adults and seniors seeking to better cope with anger management, stress management, low self-esteem, abuse, depression, anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, psychosis, and more. She strives to help others to find happiness and direction by using empathy and acceptance to assist the client in learning how to utilize the tools that they need to heal and find peace again.

I am passionate about working with individuals who are struggling with symptoms resulting from any type of overwhelming experience or trauma, especially early life trauma and neglect. Through my years of practice, I have seen that it's often true that, while people can experience great healing with talk therapy alone, it doesn't always feel like enough. Over the last 12 years, this has led me to pursue more specialized training in trauma-centered interventions, including Somatic Experiencing and clinical neurofeedback.

I believe that everyone has the ability to heal from trauma, and experience the beauty of personal growth from difficult life experiences. When we experience trauma and/or chronic stress, we often become disconnected from ourselves, from others, and from the world around us. Our work together can help you reconnect to yourself, improve interpersonal relationships and learn to be present in the moment. My goal is to help you become more resilient, so that you feel comfortable enough to process your past, and confident enough to navigate difficult life events.

Do you know your heart matters? It requires courage to explore your heart's history with another. And, it's natural to feel uncertain when searching for help with your concerns. Whether you are seeking a solution, or acceptance of something without a solution, psychotherapy offers a unique space for attention, acceptance, exploration, and growth. I am a licensed counselor, psychotherapist, and teacher who enjoys listening to the hearts of others. I love providing a safe, accepting, confidential space for clients to explore their life stories, share their pain, and learn to honor and interpret their heart's deepest desires.
