Hi, I’m Jaelene Luna, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Play Therapist who works with children, teens, and young adults. I provide therapy in English and Spanish and specialize in concerns such as anxiety, emotional regulation, ADHD, trauma, self-esteem, behavioral challenges, and life transitions. My goal is to create a supportive space where clients feel safe, understood, and empowered to grow.

Life is full of ups and downs, and we all face challenges that can feel overwhelming at times. These struggles can prevent us from becoming the best version of ourselves. Sometimes, having someone to guide you through your journey can make all the difference.

As a licensed professional counselor, I’m here to help you navigate life’s challenges. I offer both in-person and virtual therapy sessions for children (ages 4+), teens, and adults. I’ve had the privilege of working with clients who are dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), divorce, and other difficult life transitions.

Coming from a family of Educators and having over 20 years of experience in education and counseling, has provided me with the opportunity to service a variety of individuals and has given me a strong desire to help children as young as 5 years of age to adults and families in crisis situations. I also believe our experiences help create who we are, and each day we are given an opportunity to start new.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, anxious, or struggling to find balance in your daily life? You do not have to navigate it alone. I provide compassionate, personalized mental health care in a supportive and judgment-free environment where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered.

I help clients work through anxiety and trauma in a way that feels human, supportive, and grounded. Therapy doesn’t have to feel cold or clinical—I aim to create a safe, non-judgmental space where healing can actually happen.

My approach is holistic, combining emotional processing with practical tools for everyday life. It’s not just about understanding the past—it’s about building the skills you need to thrive in the present. I tailor my work to each person’s unique needs, especially when supporting trauma survivors, neurodivergent individuals (including those with ADHD or autism), and those managing PTSD, trauma or grief.

Dr. Adolf Malik, DNP, APRN, completed his master’s degree at the University of North Carolina in Greensboro, followed by a post-master’s and a doctoral degree in nursing practice at Winston-Salem State University, NC. He also completed a post-doctoral degree in psychiatric mental health practice at Frontier Nursing University. He is board-certified in Adult, Child, and Adolescent Psychiatry; a Family Nurse Practitioner, a DOT Medical Examiner, and a SAMHSA (X-Waiver) addiction provider.

As a licensed professional counselor and psychotherapist with a passion for helping individuals, couples, and families, I believe prioritizing mental health is the key to happiness and stability in life. People can change if they have the right tools. Life can be a challenge but often it is our response to those challenges that set us apart from those with healthier coping skills.

If you are carrying grief, trauma, or navigating a major life transition, you may feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward. Experiences such as loss, divorce, infertility, or other unexpected changes can deeply impact your sense of stability and alters your identity.

I bring over two decades of experience working in a variety of clinical settings. My background includes serving as a probation officer, directing three partial hospitalization programs, working in an inpatient psychiatric facility, and building a private practice. These experiences have given me a broad and practical understanding of how people struggle—and more importantly, how they heal.

I hold a Master of Education in Counseling and Guidance and have been a Licensed Professional Counselor since 2001. I specialize in trauma and grief, using EMDR as my primary modality, along with CBT and other evidence-based approaches. I also value and incorporate principles from 12-step recovery when working with clients or loved ones living with addiction.

I work with adults facing trauma, grief, and life transitions, including those who are high-functioning but internally struggling. Regardless of what brought you here, therapy can be a place to gain clarity, build resilience, and reconnect with yourself.
