In session you will be greeted with a calm and positive energy. You’ll be welcomed into a safe, non-judgmental space where you will feel supported. I enjoy working with teens and adults who are going through life transitions. I primarily works with individuals experiencing anxiety and panic, depression and trauma. If you want to change but don't know where to begin, I can help you create small attainable steps to move toward your goals.

Counseling is a journey and admitting that you need help is one of the hardest and most rewarding things you will do. This is an active journey that we will take together. Often we feel that activity and movement will help us to feel better, but underneath that unrest is a range of psychological processes such as depression, overwhelming stress, perfectionism, and anxiety. Choosing to ignore your issues tends to make life more difficult and places a strain on your relationships. Through our counseling relationship we will create goals, set the pace and find your path of healing.

Trauma comes in all forms and my goal is to walk beside my clients on their healing journey. Using EMDR, CBT and Motivational Interviewing I help my clients learn new ways to achieve and sustain their goals. Life can be a hard journey as we deal with an assortment of issues throughout our life span. Trauma, depression, anxiety, PTSD, relationship issues, family problems and overcoming childhood trauma just to name a few. My clients will be the first to tell you that they are not alone, I am with them and will be with you every step of the way. I work with both individuals and couples.

Hi, I am Anita Adams, and I am a licensed professional counselor and a licensed addictions counselor who has worked, primarily with the forensic population who are currently incarcerated. I am skilled in cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution focused brief therapy. I am also trained in eye movement rapid desensitization and reprocessing therapy (EMDR), and frequently work with clients who exhibit co-occurring disorders including post-traumatic stress disorder and substance use disorders.

The path to mental health healing can feel like hiking an intimidating mountain, in a snowstorm, with no trail markers. It can feel scary, overwhelming, and like a journey you are not ready to begin alone. I am here to guide you, one step at a time, at your pace, with all the trail snacks. I believe no mental health mountain is too tall for you to summit. I've had the privilege of assisting individuals and couples facing a spectrum of challenges—from anxiety & depression to relationship struggles, ADHD, boundary-setting, & beyond all reach their summit. There's nothing quite like being part of someone's journey to self-realization.

Schedule through my website link in my bio today! Before his own private practice, Tim provided mental health and addiction counseling to individuals and groups. Most of his time was spent serving forensic clients, who were state-mandated to inpatient rehabilitation for a history of felony convictions and serious drug use. Many of them had dual diagnoses, meaning they had mental health issues coinciding with their substance use disorders (which is often the case). Tim relied heavily on various counseling theories including Existential Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Narrative Therapy. He became trained in EMDR.

Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, or life transitions, I am here to provide support and guidance on your journey to well-being. Together, we can work to gain insight into the underlying cause of your challenges while developing coping strategies to support you in the present moment. I am passionate about supporting young adults (18+) as they navigate the complex challenges of life transitions, with a focus on building self-esteem. I also specialize in the older adult (65+) population, assisting these clients in navigating their unique challenges in grief, caregiver stress, and chronic disease management.

My passion to help others and offer support to those around me was innate from a young age. Through my various careers, I felt most fulfilled when I was offered opportunities to watch others grow and thrive in ways they did not think were possible. Prior to my role as counselor, I have had the pleasure to serve as an educator and teacher in both the private and public sectors. Through my journey to become a counselor, I have served others in a variety of settings including community mental health centers, hospice, and non-profit organizations. I welcome individuals from all and any walks of life and look forward to working with you.

Are you seeking a compassionate space to navigate a difficult time in life? Do you desire both empathetic listening and gentle encouragement to grow? If so, we might be an ideal fit on this journey together. I'm Melanie McGinn, a licensed clinical social worker. With over 20 years of experience working with individuals and families, I've had the privilege of hearing countless stories and helping individuals navigate through some of life's most challenging transitions and losses. I specialize in helping clients work through anxiety, depression, career transitions, family and parenting challenges, and grief and loss.

I am a licensed therapist with a specific specialty, expertise, knowledge, and experience in addictions and dependency. While this is a specific focus, I recognize and understand the many facets of an individual as a whole and address the importance of mental and physical health, finances, legal issues, career, and interpersonal relationships toward recovery and well-being.

My ideal client seeks to address trauma, anxiety, depression, or relationship issues. They are motivated to explore their trauma while developing practical coping skills, communication techniques & mindfulness practices. They aspire to reduce stress, increase joy, and enhance productivity in their lives. They seek a welcoming & non-judgmental space to share their experiences, challenges, and emotions. They desire holistic growth and personal transformation to heal their past wounds, develop effective coping strategies, strengthen their relationships, & cultivate well-being in their lives.

I work with clients who are seeking to explore and understand how their past experiences, relationships, family dynamics, etc. are currently impacting them. It's difficult to break unhealthy and unproductive patterns that were modeled and taught to you. It often takes an outside perspective to recognize and understand how this is contributing to anxiety, depression, stress, feeling disconnected from oneself and others and much more. My goal is to help clients feel unburdened by their past and feel empowered in all areas of their life.

Life's challenges—whether rooted in relationships, personal history, or societal pressures—can leave us feeling stuck, disconnected, or overwhelmed. I offer a unique blend of experiential, context-rich psychotherapy to help you navigate these struggles. Together, we'll explore the intricate web of your experiences, addressing issues like self-doubt, loneliness, burnout, and dread. My approach goes beyond quick fixes, diving deep into the core of your concerns to foster lasting relief and improved well-being. We'll focus on practical strategies that help you manage current challenges while building resilience for future obstacles.

Life can be challenging. What's your story?

I have been working as a counselor (supervised by a licensed counselor, registered counselor and eventually as a fully Licensed Professional Counselor) since 2013.

Finding yourself up at night reviewing what you said to your friend over and over in your mind, trying to figure out if you said anything “wrong”? Or holding yourself back from dating for fear of being an “unhealed person” and not wanting to “put that on someone”? Or struggling with constant worry within your current relationship? Feeling confused how you’re constantly working hard but not getting that promotion or recognition for it? My clients are committed to personal growth, but feel stuck and burnt out. We’ll work together to help you find love, get your dream job, and find meaningful friendships.

I work from a person-centered/humanistic theoretical lens, operating from a perspective that people can accomplish their goals when they are met with compassion, understanding, and are provided with hands-on tools for emotional processing and coping with life stressors. I graduated in 2020 from Ottawa University, and I have a wide range of experience in various mental health settings, including inpatient/crisis stabilization, outpatient clinics, and residential facilities.
