Karilyn (Kay) Bela

"My mental health has taken a turn for the worst, but I’m the one who helps other people.” Sound like you? If so, depression and anxiety can show up when we are constantly stressed with unhealthy relationships & boundaries. We feel guilty asking for help, so we say we’re “fine”—and almost believe it— but when we hide our issues, we can find ourselves drinking more, experiencing anxiety attacks, and/or contemplating ending it all. What you're experiencing is evidence that it's time for a change.

Christine Chenitz

I work with clients around topics such as religious and spiritual trauma, old belief systems or fundamentalist systems that have negatively impacted them, trauma, attachment and current dysfunctional patterns that result from past experiences. Often trauma symptoms, anxiety, and depression are a part of this. I enjoy folks who are open to challenging themselves within a safe space and are ready to make connections around how their past is impacting the present.

Ali Siewert

Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.

Brave Within Counseling Hyon Bachman

Does your anxiety get in the way when you are trying to talk to your partner, co-workers, boss, or clients and feel stuck? When we try to “fix” what is outside of us, inevitably, we will continue to feel stuck. When we try to look within ourselves; our emotions, thoughts, or prejudgments based on our beliefs or assumptions, we may challenge ourselves and ask what we believe is true. I hope you are willing to challenge yourself by examining your unquestioned mind. In-Network-VA, Out of network-FL

Sayuri (Julie) Heinl

Have you looked at yourself in the mirror and not recognize the person looking back at you? Do you ever wonder how you went from 0-60? Do you do things in the moment—yell, scream, shut down, pretend like you don’t care—and wish you could take it back? If you are filled with anger, sadness, anxiety, fear, mistrust, and negativity, it will inevitably seep into your relationships with those you love. These parts of us tend to push others away, even though what we most desire is peace & connection.

Julie Williams

Trauma, anxiety, and/or depression, is preventing you from living your life. Even on good days, your negative self-talk beats you you up. Everyone can be hard on themselves. It’s exhausting trying to anticipate when these feelings will strike next. You can’t trust your own thoughts. It could be that your painful past or current stress isn’t going away on its own. It takes all you’ve got to get through the day. And most days it takes more than that. Stuck in a vicious cycle with no end in sight.
