Biography

I'm a therapist, and most of what I see spans the full arc of a life. Over the years I've worked across a range of outpatient settings with people of many ages, from teenagers navigating the noise of adolescence to adults in the thick of midlife, to older folks in their sixties and beyond who are still doing the real work of understanding themselves. I hold a Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a second Master's in Philosophy, and I'm currently working toward a PhD in Human and Social Services, so questions about how people make meaning tend to follow me into the room.

Early sessions with me move at an unhurried pace. I take my time getting to know you as a whole person, not just the concern that brought you in, and I ask enough questions to actually understand what's going on before we settle on any direction. I care about building genuine rapport first; trust isn't something I expect on day one. From there, we shape a path forward together, one that fits your particular life rather than a generic plan applied to you.

Whatever you bring, I want you to feel heard, respected, and taken seriously. The first step is simply talking things through and getting a clear picture of where you are; the rest we figure out as we go.

Briana Marshall, LMFT

I'm a therapist, and I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families across a wide range of backgrounds. My training is in Couple and Marriage and Family Therapy, and much of what I do is systemic and relational, which just means I pay attention to the people and patterns around you, not only what's happening inside you. Over the years I've practiced in outpatient community mental health, K-12 school settings, substance use treatment, and private practice, so I've sat with a lot of different kinds of struggles.

I think of therapy as a partnership. We work together to make sense of what you're going through, what feels hard right now, and what you'd genuinely like to change. My approach is trauma-informed and culturally responsive, and I try to honor your identity, background, and lived experience without asking you to perform or explain yourself in ways that feel like pressure. In a first session, I mostly want to understand what's happening for you and what you're hoping for, and from there we build a realistic plan around your priorities.

As we go, I'll help you notice patterns, put some coping tools to use, and adjust the work when something isn't fitting. I'd rather revise the plan than pretend it's working.

Curious whether the two of us would be a good match? That's exactly what a first conversation is for.

Lou Hang, LMFT

I'm a marriage and family therapist, and most of what I see is people navigating the emotional and relational challenges that come up in their lives, whether they're working through things on their own, as a couple, or as a family. I earned my Master's in Marriage and Family Therapy from Alliance Graduate School of Counseling in Nyack, New York, and that relational lens shapes how I understand almost everything a person brings to me. Nobody arrives with the exact same story, so I don't treat anyone as though they do.

I care a lot about trust and respect being present from the start, because I don't think real work happens without them. Our first session is mostly about getting a full picture of your background, what's bringing you in, and where you'd like to end up. From there, we build a plan together that actually fits your life rather than a generic version of it. I try to keep things collaborative throughout, checking in as we go and adjusting when something isn't working for you.

What matters to me is that you feel genuinely heard, not processed. I'd rather move at a pace that lets you feel steady than rush toward a milestone that doesn't mean anything to you.

Curious whether the two of us would work well together? That's exactly what a first conversation is for.

Loni Nelson-Bounds, LMHC

Most of my work as a therapist is talk therapy with adults, including older adults navigating the later chapters of life. I've practiced in both outpatient and inpatient settings, and I earned my Master's degree in psychology in 2016, so I've seen how differently people arrive at care depending on where they are and what they've been through. That range shapes how I listen.

Open communication matters to me, and I work closely with you to set goals that are clear and actually reachable, not aspirational for their own sake. I want you to feel heard and respected, and I want you to be an active participant rather than someone I'm doing things to. My approach is grounded in trust, collaboration, and mutual respect; that isn't a slogan, it's the condition I need in order to be useful to you.

The first session is mostly me learning your story: your history, what's bringing you in, and what you're hoping will be different. From there I build a plan that fits your needs, your values, and your own objectives, and I adjust it as we go and as you make progress. I'd rather change course honestly than stay attached to a plan that isn't working.

If any of this fits, reach out and we'll start with a conversation. We can figure out the rest together from there.

I'm a therapist who has spent years working across outpatient and in-home family settings, and much of that work has moved to telehealth. I see adults and older adults who are contending with trauma, anxiety, depression, substance use, grief, the emotional weight of chronic illness, or family conflict that has worn down the people involved. Before this, I taught social work, and that instinct toward mentorship and growth still shapes how I sit with people: I want you to leave with something you can actually use.

My style is compassionate but direct. I'll support you, and I'll also offer a gentle challenge when I think it will move things forward. I start by understanding your story, your strengths, and what you're hoping to change, then we build a treatment plan around your goals rather than a generic one. Sessions tend to have a rhythm: we check in, work on a concrete skill, and look at how things have actually gone since we last spoke. I draw on CBT, DBT, Trauma-Focused CBT, and Solution-Focused Therapy, always through a strengths-based, culturally aware lens, and I adjust the goals as your life shifts.

What matters most to me is open, honest communication, so you feel understood rather than managed. If you're ready to work on something and want a partner who will be both steady and straight with you, the first step is simply a conversation, and we'll figure out the path together from there.

That range shapes how I sit with people now. I see adults and older adults who are working through whatever brought them to therapy at this point in their lives, whether that's something recent or something they've been carrying for a while.

My approach is eclectic and built around the person in front of me rather than a formula. Depending on what fits, I draw from CBT, DBT, ACT, and solution-focused and person-centered work. What matters more than the method, though, is trust, and I don't rush that part. The first session is relaxed. We spend it getting to know each other, talking through what's going on, what you're concerned about, and what you'd actually like to be different. From there we move at a comfortable pace, paying attention to your strengths and laying a foundation we can build on.

I think therapy works best when it's genuinely collaborative, so I'll check in with you about direction rather than deciding it for you. I want you to feel heard and supported, and I want the work to feel like ours.

I'm a therapist who has spent years working across a range of clinical settings and with people from many different walks of life. That variety shaped how I practice: I've learned that no two people arrive for the same reason, and no single method fits everyone. My approach is client-centered, and I draw on cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, solution-focused work, and strengths-based techniques depending on what actually fits the person in front of me.

A lot of what I do is helping adults, including older adults, work through personal, emotional, and life transitions, the moments when something shifts and the old ways of coping stop holding. I lean on your strengths rather than fixating on what's wrong, and I build each plan around your goals rather than a formula.

Our first session is mostly about getting to know you and understanding what brought you here. I'll ask about your concerns and what you're hoping to gain, and we'll start laying a foundation we can keep building on together. I try to be thoughtful and steady, and I'd rather move at a pace that feels honest than rush toward a fix.

As a therapist, I work mostly with adults and older adults who are ready to sort through what life has thrown at them and want practical tools to do it. Over more than 25 years in human services, including close to a decade seeing clients in outpatient therapy, I've sat with people navigating stress, loss, transition, and the weight of experiences they haven't fully unpacked. I've also counseled military families during my time at Fort McCoy, and that work taught me a lot about how people carry pressure quietly.

Here's something I hold onto: you're not broken. You already have the ability to empower yourself; my job is to help you find the right tools and the guidance to use them. I draw on approaches like CBT, DBT, and mindfulness, and I'm trauma-informed in how I listen and pace things. Early on, expect me to ask real questions about your history, your concerns, and where you want to go, and to actually take my time with your answers. I care about trust and clear communication, and I want you to feel heard and respected rather than rushed. We'll set goals together and build the skills to meet them, at whatever pace fits you.

Karla Bidstrup, LCSW

My work as a therapist centers on talk therapy with adults, including older adults, who are looking for more meaning, balance, and some measure of inner peace in their lives. What drew me to this field in the first place was a genuine curiosity about human behavior, why we do what we do, and how we can change it when the old patterns stop serving us.

My approach draws on both behavioral and psychodynamic ideas, which lets me address what's happening in your day-to-day life while also exploring the deeper emotional patterns underneath it. Some sessions are about practical, present-tense problem-solving; others are about understanding where a reaction comes from. I try to bring a thoughtful and motivating presence to that work, and I pay close attention to what makes you different from the next person who walks in.

Early on, I focus on getting to know you and gathering the background that helps me understand your history, alongside building the kind of relationship that actual change tends to grow from. From there, we clarify your needs, values, and goals together, and we adjust those goals as things shift over time. I see the relationship between us as the ground the rest of the work stands on.

The first step is a conversation to sort out what matters to you; we shape the direction from there and keep revisiting it as we go.

Most of my work as a therapist is with adults navigating anxiety, depression, and the particular weight of grief and loss. Over the past 14 years, I've practiced in both inpatient and outpatient settings, and I've spent a good deal of that time alongside people facing chronic or serious medical illness, the kind of situation where the diagnosis is only part of what you're actually living with. Those are often the folks I connect with most: someone trying to hold themselves together through something they didn't choose and can't simply solve.

My approach leans on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy, with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy woven in when it fits. In practice, that means our early sessions are less about fixing and more about getting clear: I want to understand how you see yourself, where your strengths already are, and where there's genuine room to grow. I tend to be steady and practical rather than flashy, and I'll be straight with you about what I'm noticing. The insight we're after is yours, not mine, so I try to make space for you to arrive at it.

What I find rewarding is the connection itself, sitting with someone as they start to recognize what they're capable of. If any of this resonates, the beginning is simple: we talk, we get a sense of what you're up against, and we sort out the direction together from there.

I trained as a clinical social worker, and I mostly work with adolescents, adults, couples, and families who are moving through trauma, anxiety, depression, questions of identity, relationship strain, or a life transition that has knocked things off balance. I hold licenses in Alabama and California, I'm board-certified in transgender-affirming care, and I'm currently pursuing a PhD in Clinical Sexology, so identity development is work I take seriously rather than treat as an afterthought.

I'll be honest with you: I value direct communication, and I'll encourage the kinds of conversations that feel uncomfortable but tend to be the ones that actually move something. My approach is structured and goal-oriented, but I don't confuse structure with coldness. We start with a thorough intake so I understand your history, your strengths, your stressors, and where you actually want to end up. From there we set clear, measurable objectives, and I build a plan that lines up with your values rather than mine. Expect practical tools you can use between sessions, regular check-ins on progress, and adjustments when something isn't working. I draw on CBT, ACT, and trauma-focused and EMDR-informed methods when they fit, and I coordinate with your other providers when that supports steadier, longer-term change.

I'm a therapist with a particular focus on anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, and the messy in-between moments that come with a major life transition. I've worked across outpatient, telehealth, and managed care settings, and much of what I do comes down to helping people make sense of the thoughts, emotions, and patterns that keep showing up, then building practical tools to actually work with them.

The way I work is integrative and person-centered, which really just means I don't hand everyone the same plan. Depending on what you need, that might look like CBT or DBT, motivational interviewing, solution-focused or interpersonal work, or mindfulness-based techniques, shaped around your goals, your strengths, and what you value. In a first session, expect me to listen closely and ask questions that help me understand where you're starting from before we decide where to go. I take seriously the job of walking alongside you through whatever you're facing, with compassion and respect, and I want you to feel heard rather than processed.

Healing and growth tend to happen at their own pace, and I'd rather move at yours than rush a timeline. If something in your life feels stuck, painful, or simply too heavy to sort out alone, bring it to a first visit and we'll start untangling it together.

I'm a therapist, and over more than ten years I've worked in a lot of different clinical settings with people from all walks of life. That range matters to me, because it means I've learned not to assume that two people walking in with similar struggles need the same thing. Adults come to me at all sorts of turning points: some are trying to build steadier coping skills, some are working through a lifestyle change they know they need but haven't been able to make stick, and some just want to feel more like themselves again.

How we work depends on you. I draw on a range of evidence-based approaches rather than forcing everyone into one method, and I keep an eye on the whole picture, not just the symptom in front of us. A lot of what I do is aimed at helping you become more independent over time, so the goal isn't leaning on therapy forever but leaving with more of your own footing. Early sessions tend to be practical: we talk through what's actually going on day to day and start naming what you'd like to be different.

I care about connecting with the person in the room, not a chart. If any of this fits where you are right now, there's no rush. Reach out when the timing feels right for you, and we'll take it from there.

I'm a therapist, and most of what I see runs from adjustment struggles, when life throws a new circumstance at someone and they're not sure how to steady themselves, to depression, anxiety, and trauma. I've been doing this work for more than two decades now, across a wide range of ages, from teenagers to adults to folks well into their later years.

I'm eclectic in how I work, and I mean that plainly: people are different, and they need a style that actually fits them, not one I've decided on in advance. So depending on who's in front of me, I might draw on cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, solution-focused work, mindfulness, DBT, narrative, or something else entirely. What that looks like early on is a lot of me learning how you think and what has and hasn't worked before, so we're not repeating dead ends.

I ask for your feedback often, and I mean it. If something isn't landing, I'd rather know than keep going out of politeness; adjusting the approach is how the outcomes get better. My aim is straightforward, which is to help you get to your own full potential, whatever that looks like for you rather than for me.

As a therapist, I work mostly with adults and older adults who are moving through the transitions that come with every stage of life. Over the past 30 years, one thing has become clear to me: the most important part of therapy isn't the technique, it's the connection and comfort you feel with the person you choose to share your personal struggles with. That's where I start.

Much of what I do centers on depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and bereavement, and the strain that shows up in relationships and in parenting. I also work with compassion fatigue, something I've studied closely as a certified Compassion Fatigue Educator and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, having spent years in community mental health centers, hospitals, housing programs, and nonprofits.

In our early sessions, I mostly want to hear what matters to you and what you'd actually like to address. From there, we set goals together and work toward the outcomes you're hoping for. I draw on cognitive behavioral therapy with a strength-based, solution-focused lens, and I bring in dialectical behavior therapy and motivational interviewing when they fit. I'm not going to rush you; we always move at a pace that feels comfortable to you.

I'm a therapist who has spent over 15 years working with individuals and couples through trauma, relationship strain, and the big transitions that reshuffle a life. A lot of the couples I see come to me after infidelity, when trust feels broken and communication has stalled, and they're not sure if there's a way back to each other. I also work with adults facing anxiety, burnout, and the quieter emotional weight of living with a chronic illness, along with older adults navigating change later in life.

Sessions with me are practical and collaborative; we'll name what's actually going on, and I'll offer real tools you can use between our conversations, not just in the room. I tailor the work to what you're facing rather than running you through a fixed program, and I'll be honest with you about what I'm noticing along the way. My aim is to help you build the kind of emotional resilience that holds up after therapy ends.

Whether you're coming on your own or as a couple, the goal is the same: more clarity, steadier connection, and enough confidence to face what's next. If trust has been shaken or you're just tired of running on empty, reach out and let's start the repair work together.

I'm a therapist, and with more than 20 years of experience I've spent much of my career alongside children and families working through severe emotional and behavioral challenges. These days I see people across the lifespan, from kids as young as five to older adults, and I still consider this work both a passion and a calling. I'm genuinely humbled when someone takes the initiative to work on their mental wellness, because I know that first step isn't a small one.

Strong, open communication and trust are the foundation of anything we'll accomplish together. I listen closely, offer gentle guidance, and adjust what I do to fit you rather than the other way around. A lot of our work centers on noticing the unwanted self-talk that runs in the background, then figuring out coping strategies that can take the place of thoughts and habits that no longer serve you. Expect early sessions to feel more like a real conversation than an interrogation; I want to understand how you actually think and talk to yourself before we change anything.

My pace is steady, and I lean toward collaboration over prescription. I'd rather help you build self-awareness and resilience you can carry forward than hand you a fix that doesn't fit your life.

Bring whatever's been sitting on your mind to a first visit, and we'll start sorting through it side by side.

I'm a therapist, and much of what I see is anxiety, depression, insomnia, mood disorders, and the kind of low self-esteem that quietly shapes how people move through their days. I've worked in mental health since 2013, and along the way I've spent a lot of that time with populations that don't always have easy access to care: homeless veterans, Native American communities, women, LGBTQIA clients, and people living in rural or remote areas where providers are scarce. I'm also trained in geriatrics, and I have a particular fondness for working with adults over 65. That stage of life deserves more thoughtful attention than it usually gets.

Because I'm trained across several approaches, including CBT, CBT for insomnia, DBT, mindfulness-based work, and treatment for prolonged grief, I'm able to shape therapy around the actual person in front of me rather than forcing everyone through the same door. A session with me tends to be practical and grounded; I'll ask questions, we'll figure out what's really getting in your way, and we'll decide together where to put the effort. I teach and supervise newer clinicians too, which keeps me honest about the craft.

If sleep, worry, grief, or the sense that you've faded into the background has been wearing on you, I'd be glad to sit down and sort through it with you.

I'm a therapist with a particular focus on talk therapy for people moving through significant life changes, interpersonal struggles, and the kind of complex emotional challenges that don't resolve on their own. I've spent years practicing in both outpatient and residential treatment settings, and I completed my doctorate in psychology at the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, Minnesota, with specialized training in grief and trauma counseling. That background shapes how I sit with people who are grieving, in transition, or trying to make sense of what's shifted in their lives.

I work with adolescents and adults, and I start by asking about your best hopes for therapy. Before we build anything, I want to understand your history and what's actually weighing on you now. From there, we shape a plan that fits your goals, values, and your own sense of where you want to grow, and we adjust it over time as things change. A first session tends to feel less like an intake form and more like a real conversation about what brought you in and what you'd want to feel different.

I'm collaborative by nature, and I'd rather work alongside you than hand you a formula. My aim is a respectful space where you feel genuinely heard and where the work belongs to you.

Reach out when you're ready to start that conversation.
