I am proud of you for taking the first step in taking care of your mental health, it is not easy and I applaud you for that.

Updated availability- now accepting new clients on Thursdays (virtual appointments). While you are the expert in your own life, I will help you restructure your thinking to achieve your goals and to live a life of purpose. My integrative and evidence-based approach is solution-focused, strengths-based, and is rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy.

Greetings! I'm Karen Roberts, a licensed clinical social worker with over 25 years of experience in working with individuals, families, and groups in community. In therapy, my approach is to meet you where you are on your journey and collaborate towards achieving your goals. By envisioning what changes you desire in your life, you have already taken the first step. Perhaps you aim to be more vibrant, energetic, decisive, and purposeful. Imagine the possibilities if you could tap into these qualities. What would your life look like and how would you feel?

Please give yourself grace for taking the first step in seeking help for whatever challenges may be overwhelming you. As an LMSW (Licensed Master of Social Work), I value the fact that you are the expert of your own experience. I will meet you where you are at and strive to create a compassionate, safe, and supportive environment for you to embrace your true self. Free from judgment, you will be empowered to explore your innermost thoughts and feelings. My approach is rooted in the belief that you already have every strength within you to accomplish your goals and discover the depths of who you are.

Accepting New Clients. Do you feel like you're treading water, barely keeping your head above? Are you having a difficult time being present? "Listen, are you breathing just a little, and calling it a life?" -Mary Oliver

My ideal client seeks self-exploration & understanding, facing issues like anxiety, depression, or relationship difficulties. They need a supportive space for personal growth, aiming to gain insight, develop coping strategies, improve communication, & foster healthy relationships. They aspire to enhance mental well-being, achieve a better life quality, & unlock their full potential.

Mike is a seasoned board certified Licensed Professional Counselor with over 15 years of experience helping people reach their highest potential. He works with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, grief/loss, loneliness, disconnection, negative emotions & behavior patterns, work-related stress, and dysfunctional relationship patterns.

My clients come to me at all stages of their life. I refer to this as their "beginnings, middles and ends" of their lifetime. I see teenagers struggling to be understood and truly heard. I help couples after the "honeymoon is over" , I assist parents with major life obstacles, I help people make difficult decisions about their careers and even guide them at the end of their lives. With each stage, I ask the client what they want out of their experience with therapy and give the client the power and voice. I guide them with their goals and help create a safe place to explore their emotions and options.

Hello! I am a dedicated and compassionate therapist committed to supporting your journey to emotional well-being and personal growth. I have had the privilege of guiding individuals through various challenges for 20+ years, helping each of them discover inner strength and resilience. Specializations include anxiety, stress, anger management, ADHD, improving relationships, communication, navigating life transitions, and parenting challenges. I have considerable experience supporting LGBTQIA individuals, helping to navigate the challenges they may encounter with family, friends, or community.

Life can get us twisted in knots, but we can free ourselves with time and the right tools. I advise and empower clients to find solutions with resourcefulness and creativity, approaching each conversation with flexibility, non-judgment, and a wide perspective.

Along the way I have learned that a deeper understanding of self evolves from a deeper understanding of the “stuff” that causes us to think, believe, and behave in the way that we do. Most of the time, the “stuff” is handed down to us or imprinted on us in our childhood or from our experiences. If you are wanting to better understand yourself to break free from the patterns and cycles that may be consuming you, it would be my honor to join you on your journey of self-discovery. I am passionate about supporting those who are experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship issues, low self-esteem, stress, and life transitions.

Our interns within this program have expertise in maternal mental health, as well as focused consultation & supervision to provide you with specialized care at a time when you need it most.

Hi! I'm glad you're taking this step to feel better. It can be difficult to seek help and acknowledge when we are struggling, but the process can be so much easier with the help of an unbiased therapist. We might be a good fit if you are experiencing anxiety, uncertainty, and desire some compassionate support. I also enjoy working with couples to address negative communication patterns, and to restore trust. I approach the therapeutic relationship as a team effort. Together, we will address your challenges and come up with workable solutions for your daily struggles.
