Hi! My name is Mara, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have spent the last 15 years learning how to see, understand, and support people from all different walks of life. I specialize in working with adults, and have special areas of interest in working with those who see themselves as neurodiverse. I received my Master's Degree through the University of the Cumberlands in Kentucky, and was able to complete hands-on training at West Virginia University in their embedded counseling services on the Health Sciences Campus.
As a 2nd generation child of immigrants/refugees, I understand the complexities of exploring one’s own identity as life is still in motion. I believe that integration of new lived experiences with old ones are key in discovering wholeness. As your therapist, I’ll support you in better understanding how these have influenced your way of being–how you think, behave, and interact with the world around you!
I am Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s degree in Clinical Social Work from Rutgers University. With over 7 years of experience in social services, I have observed how all individuals are learning to exist & thrive within the context of a greater whole. Within my role as a mental health therapist, I prioritizes person-centered work with a lens on how one’s lived experiences have shaped their worldview and way through life.
I believes in holistic care and supports the idea that the tools required for healing and wholeness derive within each individual; as your therapist, I’ll support you in discovering what these tools are within your own capacities.

Hello, I’m Chido and thank you for your commitment in engaging in treatment. I understand that seeking support can be a meaningful and sometimes difficult step, and I approach each client with compassion and genuine care. I have experience in working with adults, children, and families navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma-related conditions, grief, family and relationship issues.
I have training in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT). I incorporate mindfulness-based approaches and advocate for whole-person wellness.
Hi, I’m Nick. You might be here because you’re tired of pretending you’re fine when you’re really not. Maybe you overthink everything, shut down, get irritated with people you care about, or just feel like you’re carrying a lot and don’t totally know why. For some people, it goes a bit deeper than that. You might have grown up being seen as the “problem” in your family, or the one who got blamed or was maybe made to feel like too much. A lot of the people I work with are LGBTQIA+ or neurodivergent (but not everyone), or still figuring that out.
That kind of experience can mess with your sense of self. You might second-guess your reactions and feel guilty, or not even be sure what you’re feeling half the time. Therapy with me is a place where you don’t have to have it all figured out. You don’t need a perfect explanation or a clear goal, we can just start with whatever feels most real.
If you have been carrying things on your own for a long time, it can be difficult to imagine doing it differently. That's okay! If this resonates with you, I invite you to reach out.
