After retiring from the Army, I went back to school to obtain my masters of Social Work to help others who suffer from trauma and depression. My biggest inspiration for wanting to help others is the help that I have received along the way. It was after seeing my therapist who helped to guide me through gender, dysphoria, and my transition, that I begin my path that has led me here, wanting to help others. My guiding philosophy is that you deserve to treat yourself as good if not better than anyone else. When you feel good, others will feel good too.

Hi! I am D'Arion, I’m a therapist and the founder of Sincerely, your brain., LLC. My approach is rooted in warmth, authenticity, and creating a safe space where clients can truly be themselves.

I specialize in working with children through play therapy, supporting them in expressing emotions, building coping skills, and navigating life’s challenges in developmentally appropriate ways. In addition, I have a deep passion for supporting young women and college students as they transition into adulthood—navigating identity, independence, and all of the changes that come with this stage of life.

Right now, I’m also pursuing my doctorate in Counselor Education and Supervision, which keeps me closely connected to both current research and the training of future counselors.

My specific areas of focus include:

  • Anxiety and stress management
  • Life transitions (student transitions, adulthood, career shifts)
  • Women’s mental health
  • Supporting Black women, Black teens, and communities of color with culturally responsive care

At the heart of my work is the belief that therapy should feel collaborative, empowering, and tailored to each person’s story. Whether we’re building play-based strategies for a child, or talking through the complex realities of being a Black woman navigating today’s world, I’m here to listen, support, and grow alongside you.

Hi, I’m Maddie! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a specialization in trauma. I have spent most of my professional time working with children and adolescents so I know the vast childhood experiences anyone coming into therapy may bring.

I find it an immense privilege to be a trauma therapist and work with my clients on the hardest topics they may have experienced. I want you to find safety in our relationship to explore what has happened to you and who you want to become from that experience. I am trained in EMDR, an evidence -based treatment for trauma and love bringing in creative ways for my clients to experience the healing that can come through EMDR. I want you to feel that each hour we bring is your own and your goals for therapy are always at the forefront of my mind and work.

When I am not working as a therapist, I enjoy a variety of creative activities including cooking, baking, and crochet. I also love spending time outdoors or swimming to recharge and reset myself for my next day of therapy.
