I work with individuals, adolescents, couples and families who desire to live a better life and have connection in their relationships. Did you know that "pain is inevitable, suffering is optional" (. I didn't. Everyone experiences suffering. Learning how NOT to suffer is life changing. We'll explore the beliefs and meanings that were created during your socialization. You'll learn simple tools and gain awareness about how the process of suffering happens for you and how to NOT suffer. It requires willingness, vulnerability and a commitment to not give up. You also have the option to experience EMDR, a powerful modality when stuck.

People want straight talk from a psychologist, not psychobabble. They don’t want a passive therapist who just listens. Nor do they want a know-it-all to tell them exactly what to do. They want a competent psychologist who gives real feedback about what he sees going on. They want someone with real life experience who can relate to their problems as a professional, a parent or a child. Before becoming a psychologist, Dr. Evans had experience serving in the Peace Corps, running a business, getting married and having children.

Empathy, compassion, and the emphasis on the therapeutic relationship have been the foundation of my work.

I can offer you the space to do this very work. I am here to help you break free from the abuse and reclaim your power and voice.

I’m assuming something’s not working anymore. Or maybe it’s starting to feel like nothing is working. Luckily there’s always the opportunity to explore what can change for the better, at a pace that's comfortable for you. One of the greatest advantages of therapy is creating an intentional space for that self-awareness to be developed. Awareness allows the opportunity for choice to enter, leading to empowerment & growth. I'd be honored to join you in this space of personal development!

People go to therapy for various reasons and there may be no "right time" to start. I realized the first step of reaching out for help can be intimidating and I strive to make that process as simple and transparent as possible. My practice is centered on the idea that behavioral change is possible and constant. With a combination of social support, personal agency and opportunities, people can flourish to their full potential. It would be my honor to be a part of your journey toward healing and growth.

Carey Sebera, LCSW. I allow the client to lead with their hopes and desires for therapy, and get to know what drives them. Therapy is not one size fits all, and I quickly assess what may or may not be effective with each person. Seeing patterns and addressing difficult behaviors is an important part of a therapist's role, but it takes willingness and honesty from a client. We only know what you tell us! I am trained in EMDR, trauma, and addiction. I look forward to helping you achieve the life you desire.
