Do you critique yourself, replay conversations over and over, or think of all the "what ifs"? Do you have difficulty saying "no" to things, or have a hard time being yourself around others? I work with adults dealing with anxiety, depression, and stress that is difficult to manage. We will work on coping skills, assertiveness, decision making, increasing self-worth, and setting boundaries with yourself and others. We will identify negative self-talk patterns and learn to reframe how you talk to yourself to increase self-compassion. Our work can also help foster more genuine connections with others.

You may feel like you’re the only one experiencing sexual challenges in your relationship, but difficulties like low desire, painful sex, or premature ejaculation are more common than you think. If you’ve been afraid to talk about your sexual challenges, you probably feel alone, overwhelmed, and unsure about what to do. If you’re in a relationship, you and your partner may have stopped talking about sex, deepening the disconnection and feelings of loneliness and shame. Fortunately, there is a way out of this negative cycle, and you can create the sex life and relationship you desire.

My ideal client would be someone either navigating life stressors, anxiety, or depression. My client is someone hoping to reconnect with their strengths as well as create a better balance in their life. My client could potentially be experiencing trauma or issues with attachment concerns and relationships. My client expresses their goals of needing to manage emotions better, find balance within their routine, and build more confidence, which is helpful for communication of desires/ interests. The client wants to accomplish these goals for the first time or as a result of transition/trauma.

I believe that you should feel comfortable with the therapist you choose and hopeful about the therapy. When you feel this way, therapy is more likely to have a positive outcome. Please allow me to describe how I see therapy. I use a cognitive behavioral approach, which is based on the idea that our thoughts cause our feelings and behaviors, not things such as people, situations, and events. I am a firm believer that we can change the way we think, feel, and act even if the situation does not change. Today you are one step closer to a new "you" where you feel empowered and on a positive path to growth and well-being.

I love helping my clients identify where they are feeling stuck and learn what their triggers are so they can feel more in control of their lives. I encourage them to define for themselves what brought them to therapy, what they want from it, and then how it helped them change over the course of time. It is a unique relationship and support, offering perspectives that are not otherwise available. I emphasize that it takes courage, not weakness, to face difficult issues.

Hello! My name is Cleaster Snerling-Woodward, and I am glad you are here. As a professional counselor, I work with adults from all walks of life to help others find meaning and purpose. This starts with a thorough assessment phase that emphasizes understanding my clients' intersecting identities, symptoms, and goals. Because of the inherent diversity of human experience, I believe effective treatment begins with a thorough understanding of where each person is and what has led to this point in their life.

Making the decision to see a therapist is never easy and takes great courage. I try to provide a safe, trusting environment for adults who may be feeling overwhelmed, anxious and/or depressed. In my practice I use a supportive, solution-focused approach, which is practical and results oriented. I see therapy as a process for change rather than merely an exercise in insight.

Do you find it challenging to maintain a sense of connection with both yourself and those around you? Are your personal needs frequently pushed to the bottom of your priority list? Do feelings of guilt frequently arise, making it difficult to assertively decline requests from others? It's possible that you can't even recall a time when life felt differently. But one thing is clear: you're ready for relief. You're prepared to prioritize your well-being, express your honest thoughts without overthinking, and, above all, unshackle yourself from the unhealthy chains of obligation and guilt that have bound you for so long.
