My areas of focus are trauma, depression, PTSD, anxiety, spiritual abuse, shame, LGBTQIA+ issues, and self-esteem.
How are you today? Really, how are you? Browsing these pages can be overwhelming – the unfamiliar words, the multitude of smiling faces. Those smiles can seem insulting in the face of overwhelming depression. Who do you pick? It’s okay to have questions and doubts; it’s okay to pick someone and change your mind once you meet them. My name is Cherise (she/her) and I am an LPC-Associate. This means that I have the education and experience to have a provisional license to counsel, but must do so under supervision. You not only have a qualified therapist, you also have a second, more experienced therapist behind the scenes.

My practice included working with persons with anger management, physical and substance abuse concerns, employment and legal challenges.

As a clinician I seek to develop therapeutic relationships which prepare the person for change which positively impact their life.

I offer weekend and evening sessions! Reaching out for help is difficult and oftentimes feels vulnerable. Being brave enough to reach out for counseling is a strength in itself! There is an ever present stigmatization of mental health when the truth is that everyone is often struggling. I strive to see the world through my clients’ eyes to fully empathize with where they’re coming from in order to best empower and guide them to healing. Depression and anxiety can look and feel different to everyone and lots of us have gotten really good at masking like everything is alright. This is a safe space for everything to not be okay.

Anxiety takes many forms: stress, worry, PTSD, panic attacks, social anxiety, health anxiety, OCD, etc... Anxiety can be so overwhelming that we feel paralyzed. Anxiety can keep us from taking the leap of faith we need to in order to be our authentic selves and live the life we truly want to live. If you can relate to this, you are not alone. Contrary to popular belief, courage is NOT the absence of anxiety. Courage is being afraid and not allowing anxiety to hold you back. This is where I come in to help. My passion is helping people overcome anxiety by enhancing courageous living, however that is defined by YOUR goals and values.

Domestic Abuse Therapists
What are the most effective ways to recover from domestic abuse?
Leaving an abusive relationship requires tremendous courage, so survivors in treatment should recognize that they have already completed the most important step. Still, the trauma of physical or emotional abuse can be difficult to process and overcome. Therapy can help survivors process trauma, grief, and difficult emotions, treat relevant mental health symptoms, and create a new framework for boundaries and relationships in the future. For some, support groups can also be an invaluable outlet for healing.
When should an individual seek help for domestic abuse?
Victims of intimate partner violence should seek help immediately. It can take substantial time, planning, energy, and courage to leave an abusive relationship, but starting the process—by seeking therapy, calling the domestic violence hotline, or simply confiding in a loved one—will help them get there. Those who have left abusive relationships but haven’t sought treatment can also greatly benefit from therapy to process and heal from the experience.
What are the consequences of staying in an abusive relationship?
Remaining in an abusive relationship has serious repercussions. In addition to the ongoing threat of physical danger and emotional abuse, research shows that intimate partner violence is associated with a range of mental health disorders including depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety, and substance abuse. Therefore it’s important for individuals in an abusive relationship to seek help as soon as possible.
How can you get domestic abuse treatment for someone else?
It can be very complicated to identify and leave an abusive relationship; barriers include the threat of violence, financial instability, and family pressures. Those concerned about a loved one in an abusive relationship should talk to them about the situation, provide them with resources such as the domestic violence hotline, and introduce the idea of seeing a therapist due to their concern for the person’s safety and well-being.
