I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a Registered Art Therapist, Board Certified.

I meet my clients with empathy and compassion and work collaboratively to identify treatment priorities. The treatment modalities I use are art therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy (consists of a skill set combined with mindfulness focused on helping clients gain more control of their emotions), psychodynamic therapy, and trauma focused CBT.

Hello, my name is Nicole Stiving. I am an LCSW. I approach therapy by meeting clients where they are at. I believe clients are seeking mental health services for personal reasons so services should be focused on clients' voices and choices regarding what you hope to get from therapy services. Common theoretical approaches that I use are the person-centered approach, systems approach, and using concepts of cognitive behavioral therapy. Most of my experience has been in working with children and families. Therefore, I am comfortable with working with children, youth, transitional-age youth, and/or their caregivers.

Don't give up, you can heal and overcome traumas by adapting to new environments through healthy coping skills. Helping to cope with changes and finding ways to decrease or resolve experiences of distress can be vital for a person to grow in a healthy manner. I am committed to establishing a collaborative relationship and work toward assisting my clients to overcome and cope with significant stressors in their lives. Being aware of the triggers and working toward healthier forms of thinking and behaving are important aspects to work through in therapy. I am also able to accommodate my clients and meet them within the community.

In 2020, I opened a private practice. I was blessed it grew to full capacity but dealt with sadness of turning people away due to no space. Frequently people shared their difficulties with finding therapy. I am tired of people and families, who are suffering emotionally not getting the help they need. So, I put together a group of several skilled clinicians. We operate by providing a therapy environment that is confidential and emotionally safe. We’re dedicated to making people feel comfortable and understood when discussing the most sensitive issues. Our goal is to ensure support that is empathetic and non-judgmental.

We are all on a path toward self-discovery, searching for our unique, personal destiny and life purpose. When we fall short of realizing happiness and peace within the American dream, we begin to lose hope and become anxious or depressed. As such, I offer therapy based on my mission statement: Changing Your Life By Engaging Your Soul! Human beings are so much more than a mere mind and body. Somehow our spirit, our soul, has lost its place in our society and in our psychology. I seek to reintroduce deeper meaning to everyday living by invigorating your spiritual energy.

My name is Uchechi Alozie. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My approach to therapy is seeing my client within their environment and not just the issues they are presenting. My approach is trying to aid my clients holistically. I have worked with family units for more than 10 years. And have worked with individuals with chronic mental illness for 6 years. My goal is to help clients by determining what is influencing and impacting the client in their environment rather than looking just at the presenting issues.

Our thoughts, feelings, and beliefs have the power to govern our behaviors. Those behaviors can subsequently cause us to create a positive, thriving, and healthy lifestyle. On the other hand, having feelings of anger, hopelessness, and fear is also in our creative power. Sometimes we are faced with situations that we feel unprepared, overwhelmed, or ill-equipped to handle successfully. Through collaboration, I'm here to help strengthen your healthy coping skills which will assist you with working through life adversities. The challenges we face and overcome can build resilience, healthy coping skills, and empowerment.

Are you unhappy with what you see in the mirror? Are you afraid of being fat or worried about your weight? Does your weight determine your mood?

If you are feeling controlled by thoughts, fears, and worries about food, weight, and appearance, you might feel frustrated, depressed, anxious, confused, and lonely.
I provide special counseling services to help you understand why you are thinking and feeling this way...

Trauma, grief and loss issues compromise the bulk of my client caseload. I find that adults can hold the impact of childhood trauma for years before seeking psychotherapy and often mask their pain with anxiety, depression or compulsive behaviors. My experience is that getting to the hidden pain and strengths that each client carries through his or her daily lives and relationships are the core of healing. There are no quick fixes, but exploring ways to accent life skills, improve self-respect and relationships are keys to building more wholeness in each person's heart, mind, body and spirit. Especially now.
