Perhaps you have reached a point in your life in which something has to change; the sadness, anger, confusion or depression have become too great a burden to carry. Perhaps you have been a victim of profound brokenness and long for healing and a brighter future. Or perhaps you desperately want to be a good parent, but it seems like everything you have tried hasn't worked. If this is you, I would be honored to come alongside you and offer my assistance. It takes wisdom to recognize when a problem exists and courage to do something about it. As your therapist, you honor me by sharing your life with me. I will bring the best that I know from my study and experience. I will actively listen to your concerns, offer real solutions and provide relevant feedback. I will always have compassion and empathy for you in all that we do. I value you as a person in need of respect and care and will always treat you with highest dignity.

During that time I have also worked extensively with addictions (of all types) and related issues (“co-dependency”, eating disorders, alcoholism, dual diagnosis…). My responsibilities have ranged from Licensed Psychiatric Technician (where much of my experience in mental health and medications comes from), to Program Director. Currently I am in private practice, life coaching, teaching, providing clinical supervision to prelicensed therapists, providing some staff training and consultation.

As a systems-oriented psychotherapist and coach, my goal is to help you find your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying systems therapy approaches and techniques, together we will identify long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life or career. If you're looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life or career, I look forward to working with you to help you achieve your goals. Please call or email me to schedule an individual or couples session, either in person or online.

Conducting a session using your computer or smartphone allows us to see and hear each other in a secure, encrypted environment.

We see many different types of client issues, including but not limited to couples communication, anxiety, depression, anger, family and stepfamily difficulties, and premarital preparation. I have been in full-time private practice for over 10 years. As marriage and family therapists, my staff and I are specially trained to deal with the context between and around clients, in addition to whatever might be going on for them individually. My personal commitment is to provide a safe and welcoming environment in which we can help move clients from where they are struggling and challenged to personal growth, happiness, and greater connection with the ones they love. My relationship with my clients not only includes helping them in the crisis moments, but also being available throughout life for whatever may come up - many return to therapy for "tune-ups" at different points in their lives. I'm honored to be someone they feel safe enough with to return at those times when they need someone to listen. If this sounds like something that might be of help to you, please give us a call at 301-563-9520, or email us at info@laurelfay.com. We look forward to working with you.

My practice is multi-generational. I work with clients as young as 11 years of age up to over 100. I have two office sites, Farmington Hills, MI and Livonia, MI. I also do consulting work at a variety of nursing homes throughout the metro area. Currently I am seeing patients via tele-health during the COVID-19 crisis. I have seen a 4 yr old and a 104 year old patient in the same day. I use an eclectic therapy mode where I choose to use the therapeutic techniques that will work best for not only your psychological condition, but also matched to your personality style to ensure the fastest and most long-standing positive outcome.

When the early excitement of falling in love fades, differences which once felt trivial become the source of disagreement and frustration. In a safe and confidential setting, I welcome individuals and couples into my private practice to improve their communication skills, increase their positive self esteem, and restore the connection in their primary relationships. Imago Relationship Therapy is based on the best selling book, "Getting the Love You Want," by Harville Hendrix, PhD and Co-Founded Imago Relationships International together with his partner, Helan LaKelly Hunt, PhD. As a Certified Imago Relationship Therapist in the Greater San Francisco Bay Area, I give couples the tools they need to tranform their relationship difficuties into the shared path of healing for optimum growth and connection. The Imago Dialogue is a simple, respectful and effective way to talk to your partner about the things that really matter. Exploring, understanding and appreciating your differences can become the most joyous experiences of your life, and the path to lasting love. In Imago their is no blame, shame or harsh criticism. Instead, a stronger connection comes through attentive listening and being deeply heard in an emotionally safe environment. Then surprising answers to age old conflicts can emerge from the relationship itself. Conflict and frustrations are truly growth waiitng to happen. Imago gives couples the tools they need to restore the loving connections they seek.

I will help you identify, understand, and move through the obstacles preventing you from having the life you desire. Are you experiencing any issues with the following?: Anxiety * Depression * Grief * Loss * Fear * Confidence & Self-Esteem * HIV/AIDS * Life Transitions * Spirituality * Relationship * Premarital * Familial * Behavioral * Death and Dying * Gay/Lesbian/Bisexual/Transgender * Domestic Abuse * Self-Empowerment * Your feelings of confusion, pain, fear, being stuck, or overwhelmed, are real. But, you can overcome them! There are times, in everyone's life, when assistance is needed to help live the life you want and deserve. I have a great wealth of experience successfully helping clients from different cultures and populations address a variety of challenges and issues. My approach is non-judgmental, direct, and caring. Your journey of growth and healing is personal. Together, we can achieve the peace and balance that you desire.

OVERVIEW Together we look at your life to see what works, what doesn’t, and why. We’ll see who you are, the relationships you’re in, and what stops you from having the life you want. We’ll see how you act, think, feel, and relate to others today and how those have been affected by your life experiences. We’ll work to change things so your life does work for you. TRAUMA You may feel anxious, depressed, or alienated. Here you can feel safe, talk honestly about what happened and about how it still affects you, even when other people don't understand or can't stand to hear it any more. I help you understand why you’re reacting as you do, even when you may feel out of control or a little "crazy." You'll learn ways to work through the psychological and emotional impact of what happened so you can get your life back. If you or your family member is a victim of violent crime, you may be eligible for therapy at no cost to you. ADDICTIONS (Substances and Behaviors) You might have difficulty with alcohol or drugs, or you may need help evaluating if that’s true, how great the difficulty is, or what you can do about it. You may also be asking similar questions about sexual behaviors or compulsions, porn, gambling, Internet usage, spending, eating, cutting, or anything else you do that feels questionable or out of control. Some people feel like they are addicted to another person, what sometimes is referred to as "love addiction." GAY/LESBIAN/BISEXUAL ISSUES While I work with heterosexuals, I also work with many gay, bisexual, or lesbian people, both individually and in couples. If you’re in a process of self-discovery, you’ll be the one to decide what your sexual orientation and identity is. If you’re now coming out, together we can consider if, when, how, and with whom you decide to do it. If you’re clear and comfortable with your sexual orientation, I can give you safe place where you can be open about who you and how HIV has impacted your life or your relationships MIND/BODY The mind and body are functionally identical. What you think affects how you feel, and what you feel affects how think. I work at both levels, with people who are interested in doing that. For people who aren't interested in the this work, I am happy to stay strictly in a talk-therapy mode. YOU SET THE COURSE, AND I'LL HELP YOU GET THERE. NEW BOOK ANNOUNCEMENT about trauma: Traumatic Experiences of Normal Development, available at Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/Traumatic-Experiences-Normal-Development-Intersubjective-dp-0367429187/dp/0367429187/ref=mt_paperback?_encoding=UTF8&me=&qid=1582966509.

I work collaboratively with clients to better understand their experiences, draw on their strengths, and access their inner resources. In our work together, you’ll have my full attention, presence, and compassionate support, along with insight to help you navigate life’s challenges—whether personal, relational, or professional. I don’t use a one-size-fits-all approach. I engage with the whole of who you are—your thoughts, emotions, history, and hopes for the future. It’s deeply meaningful to walk alongside clients as they grow, change, and pursue goals that matter most to them. As a licensed psychoanalyst with a PhD in Organizational Behavior, I bring both clinical expertise and a practical understanding of the unique pressures people face in work, relationships, and life transitions. I have experience supporting clients through career challenges, relationship dynamics, self-discovery, and coping with trauma or life changes. If this approach resonates with you, I invite you to reach out so we can explore how therapy can support your growth and well-being.

As a licensed professional counselor and addictions counselor, I am able to address both mental health and addiction issues in a comprehensive manner. I also am able to offer EMDR for the relief of pain due to trauma. I incorporate mind, body and spirit into the work with clients to assist in the healing of all aspects of the individual. I respect that initiating therapy is a difficult step to take. Sharing the personal details of your life with someone you just meet, can be overwhelming and feelings of uncertaining may be present. I offer a free initial 1/2 hour consultation. This allows clients to meet me and see if I am a good for them. Finding the right therapist should not be an expensive venture. I am compassionate and understanding, I am not here to judge, I am here to help. I can utilize my training in family and play therapy to enhance the process for both children and adults. Each client is unique and requires a individualized approach and plan to best suite their spicific needs. My goal is to have each and every client leave with a sense of relief and satisfaction. .

With over 25 years of experience as a licensed psychologist, I help adults, adolescents, and first responders (and their families) navigate life’s toughest moments—including depression, grief, codependency, career burnout, anxiety, and emotional regulation challenges. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and rooted in evidence-based practices. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or ready to make a meaningful change, I offer a supportive space to gain clarity, build resilience, and reconnect with your core strengths. I provide therapy in person in Sonoma and Marin Counties, as well as virtually throughout California.

It's hard to be objective when you feel stuck. In psychotherapy, I help people take a step back. As a trauma therapist for 25 years, working in Toronto, I do counseling and therapy for people dealing with the results of painful relationships. I help people develop goals and make changes in their lives. Adults and adolescents see me when they're having conflicts in their important family relationships, when they've experienced trauma, loss, or divorce, when they have posttraumatic symptoms from interpersonal trauma, when they are in psychological distress at work, home, or school, and when they are struggling with an eating disorder or severe anxiety. You can see more by checking out Dr. Robert T. Muller's award-winning psychotherapy work: "Trauma and the Avoidant Client: Attachment-Based Strategies for Healing" (published in 2010 by W.W. Norton) and "Trauma and the Struggle to Open Up: From Avoidance to Recovery and Growth" (published in 2018 by W.W. Norton).

As a psychotherapist who practices from a Transpersonal perspective, I provide therapy for the WHOLE individual. Unlike traditional therapeutic structure, which only considers the Emotional and Intellectual components of the individual, I also focus on the Physical and Spiritual facets of Self. I work with all ages, from small children through geriatric seniors. My specialties include Eating Disorders, Depression, Anger Management, Anxiety and Substance Abuse. I provide therapy to individuals, couples and groups and especially enjoy working with children and adolescents.

I maintain a general private practice with a specialty in the treatment of trauma with offices in the Flatiron District of Manhattan and in Montclair, New Jersey. Whether you have experienced a major traumatic event, suffer from from acute or chronic anxiety and/or depression or whether you are feeling frustrated or stuck in repetitive patterns in your work or personal life, effective psychotherapy can help bring about empowerment, growth, and positive, lasting change. I am an active participant in each treatment and will work relationally with you to address your concerns. I also specialize in the use of more body-based modalities such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and SE (Somatic Experiencing). I have found, and current research is validating, how essential a healthy mind/body connection is to facilitating any real and lasting shifts from old habituated patterns to new, more adaptive ones, and I have found these modalities particularly effective in this regard.

I have been successfully coaching and counseling people in my private practice since 1990. Typically, my clients are looking to overcome obstacles to their optimum happiness and fulfillment. Many clients are working through unfinished business from their past experience, while many are more recently blocked or stuck in self defeating habits or behaviors. Together, clients and I draw upon a variety of understandings and tools from Western social psychological knowledge and Eastern traditions and philosophies.

“Talk therapy can help you become your true self. I have worked extensively with adults and have a good understanding of childhood issues.I work with individuals and families from an interpersonal approach with a focus on emotions.I believe that all people have resources to solve problems.I am easy to talk to and I have great listening skills. I have worked many years with adolescents in public education. I have had great success with them because I understand what it is like being an adolescent today. I also have an extensive background in substance abuse. I am a licensed professional counselor offering individualized services including consultation, skill development, problem solving, and individual therapy. I do substance abuse evaluations with recommendations if requested.I have 20 years working with adolescents and adults. I have expertise in substance abuse, grief issues, and gender identity. I also work well with adult men as they tend to be resistant to getting help and as a male therapist I understand their needs.I also have experience with couples and clients who are waiting for organ donation.I can accept insurances as full payment if needed and possible.”

You have found an empathic and supportive therapist. I work with adults and adolescents who have a variety of mental health issues such as: depression, anxiety, and various forms of traumatic issues. I do individual counseling and couple/family counseling. I apply the following clinical approaches: Cognitive Behavioral techniques, Motivational Interviewing, problem solving and REBT to help clints deal with thier issues. I also work with individuals who have chronic medical issues such as HIV/AIDS, diabetes, and cancer to help them deal effectively and cope with their overwhemeling medical condition(s). I help individuals who are feeling loss and hopeless with life learn how to begin a new journey to a new you.

“Life isn’t about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.” Unknown. “Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, it became a butterfly.” Anonymous Hi. I understand that when you're hurting, you need understanding and sensitivity. You might be struggling with a difficult psychological disorder or just need help untangling the complex web of life. Perhaps you are struggling with a difficult relationship, need to overcome a serious trauma, or want to surmount a weight or smoking problem through hypnosis. I am also certified to perform past life regression, which might afford you self enrichment or provide the key to understanding aspects of thoughts and feelings you have today. Therapy is not a “one size fits all” discipline and fitting treatment to my individual client's personality and needs is a hallmark of my practice. I am skilled in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing,), Hypnosis, Past Life Regression, Relationship Counseling, or regular talk therapy, and will apply whichever technique or techniques in our sessions that promise the greatest benefit to you. The following are some of the issues I work with: Depression, relationship issues, anxiety, chronic pain, divorce, gay/lesbian issues, grief, OCD, spirituality, trauma, dissociation, family and sexual problems. This is not an exhaustive list and I encourage you to write or call to discuss whatever has brought you to consider using my services.

How I work: First we will have an introductory conversation on the phone. I will gain preliminary understanding of the problem you need help with. If I will feel that I may not be the right fit, I will provide you with referrals for therapists who specialize in the issue you are seeking a solution for (i.e., pain management). We will also discuss fees. In our first session I will go over the inform consent and office policies with you and will collect data for the intake. I will become very involved with you and we will work as a team. I will ask you what your goals are and after a couple of sessions, I will discuss the treatment plan with you. You will be in a very safe and supportive environment. I will learn to know who you are and what your personality is and I will adapt the therapeutic process to meet your individual needs. We will discuss your progress as we go along and make changes if the need arises. We will also discuss those changes to ensure that we are on the right direction in your path for personal growth.

As your therapist, first and foremost I will respect the courage of your decision to seek therapy and create a foundation of safety, acceptance, and collaboration. I strongly believe that symptom reduction (e.g., anxiety, panic, constant worrying, depression, high stress levels, complex PTSD), and an exploration of the root causes of your most distressing problems are both vital aspects of a helpful therapeutic experience. I foster a therapeutic relationship that honors my clients’ conscious minds as well as feelings, symptoms, and behaviors that they may find confusing and painful, but may be clues to presenting problems. I also consider my clients' current life situations holistically, collaborating with them to explore physical, nutritional, general life style, social support, and self-regulation issues to find areas of resilience as well as those that could be strengthened. Presently, I work with late teens and adults of all ages. I work with clients who struggle with symptoms which may be the aftermath of loss, abuse or other difficult experiences, or are simply perplexed with why they repeat distressing patterns which cause them pain. My clients may enter therapy to explore "why they have such difficulty regulating their emotions", or, "why they continue to pursue relationships that are ultimately painful", or, "why it's so hard to feel anything"; they may also enter therapy to receive assistance with specific issues such as life transitions, relationship difficulties, and work or academic problems. I also specialize in the impact of past and current interpersonal trauma or loss on parenting capacities, and assist my clients when these experiences interfere with being loving and supportive parents in the present. My work blends relational psychotherapeutic approaches, trauma-focused assessment and treatment, and psychoeducation for both clients and their families where appropriate. My trauma studies, which included EMDRIA-approved advanced EMDR training, as well as principles of Internal Family Systems and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, have solidified my longstanding belief that therapy must often go beyond talk and attend to messages from our physical selves that may provide clues to where we are most "stuck". While I have been trained in several modalities and my approach is eclectic, I will meet you where you are presently to address the problems that are most distressing to you.

I lead a group practice of Christian therapists and consultants who are affiliated with New Life Network and New Life Ministries. We work with: -Depression, Anxiety & Anger -Adolescent & Children’s Issues -Adults & Teens Abused as Children -Dependency & Co-Dependency/ACA -Family & Marital Communication Problems -Special Treatment Options for Childhood Wounds -Spiritual Dryness -Post Divorce Issues -Identity Problems -Eating Disorders CONSULTATION FOR: -Work Conflicts & Management Difficulties -Poor Morale, Loss of Productivity & Burn Out -Boundaries @ Work Problems -Leadership Coaching & Development --------------------------------------------------- As a leadership coach, I have worked with leaders from such diverse organizations as the U.S. Coast Guard, SC Johnson & Company, Kaiser-Permanente, SpineCare-SOAR, and the East Bay Lutheran Youth Leaders Association.

Dr. Chapline is highly skilled at the use of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, EMDR (Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Clinical Hypnotherapy, Ego State therapy and psycho-education. She will use her vast repertoire of additional modalities based upon a particular client's need. I enjoy my work! I love the field of psychology because it is so vast. I care about helping people move toward psychological wellness and motivating and inspiring them to reach goals. I consider therapy to be a valuable component of the walk of one's inner journey toward self completion. Psycho-education permits understanding of the origin of problematic symptoms, and how an individual became well. This type of knowledge creates skills that are transferable across life events and time.

Do you sometimes find yourself in the same situations or repeating behaviors over and over, and you don't know how to find your way out? Habitual ways of reacting and behaving often began as the means of coping with the stresses of childhood, but are no longer useful or appropriate. I would like to help you become "unstuck", become less anxious and worried, feel more comfortable with yourself and happier with your relationships and work. In sessions, I work to listen deeply and create an accepting atmosphere. There, you can become curious about your thoughts, feelings and actions, explore how your past is influencing your life today and confront the repeating patterns of emotional reaction and behavior that get in the way of your finding satisfaction in your relationships and work. My approach to therapy is eclectic with a strong psychodynamic base for understanding the problems that bring people to seek help. In addition to my training in psychology, my early training was as a dance/movement therapist and I continue to have an interest in the connection between mind, body and emotions and the nonverbal aspects of communication and relating.

Connie Lancaster is a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than 10 years of experience assisting adults, adolescents, children, and families with a wide range of issues in a variety of settings. Prior to completing licensure requirements in North Carolina, she earned a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a master’s degree in counseling, with a concentration in marriage and family counseling. Over the course of a diverse career, Connie has provided crisis counseling to survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence, vocational assessment and counseling to individuals with mental health and/or substance abuse diagnoses, and group therapy related to self-esteem, anger management, chronic pain, and parenting skills. She has counseled adults with severe and persistent mental illness as well as children with serious emotional and behavioral issues but also promotes the benefits of counseling for life’s daily struggles and transitions. Connie considers her four years as a stay at home mother to be both her most challenging and rewarding role and relishes the opportunity to help other parents improve communication and strengthen relationships within the family. She has a personal interest in supporting those who are dealing with fertility issues and/or adoption as well as those attempting to recover from traumatic events. Connie’s therapeutic approach is integrative and evidence-based, providing support, education, guidance, and skills training to help clients effectively address their personal life challenges and enhance their overall well-being. She utilizes a strengths-based approach to counseling, commonly incorporating cognitive behavioral and mindfulness techniques, humanistic therapy, solution-focused brief therapy, play therapy, and family systems theory. Given the diversity within all clients served, she personalizes her counseling approach to meet the individual or family’s particular needs, situation, and preferences. No matter the approach, Connie strives to provide a safe and nurturing environment in which clients can be heard and empowered to better understand and transform their lives. She views counseling as a collaborative process in which the client’s input is just as valuable as the therapist’s and the therapeutic relationship itself can greatly affect the progress achieved during counseling. Connie strongly believes that seeking help during difficult times is a sign of great strength, not weakness, and values her role assisting others in meeting their personal goals and reaching their full potential.

When we understand ourselves and our desires, we access our power. I help you learn what you want, and clear the obstacles out of your way. When the unconscious dictates our thoughts and behaviors, we are adrift in its hidden urges, fears, and conditioning. Getting to know ourselves brings these mysterious workings into the light, so that we can choose what we do with them. If you're feeling lost at sea, I can help you find your boat and compass. Once you're back at the helm, riding out the waves can be exhilarating! Gender and Sexual Expansion I know that in navigating the world as a queer person, it can be challenging to find the right fit in a therapist. Whether you identify as non-binary, trans, genderfluid or anywhere on the spectrum of non-heteronormativity, it's critical to talk with someone who gets it. When it's time to further explore a facet of your identity, sexuality or relationship, you can feel safe expressing yourself with me as you are without your therapist assigning your struggles to your lifestyle or identity. I counsel sex workers, individuals in polyamorous or other consensual non-monogamous relationships, and participants in kink or BDSM lifestyles. When you walk into my office, you can rest assured that you will be met with compassion and non-judgement.

I help children and young adults manage and overcome difficult times, providing counseling for grief, anxiety, depression, ADHD, etc. I take great pride working with the neurodiverse to help them better adapt and thrive in their lives. In this time of isolation, sadness and loneliness, the world can seem dim. Reaching out takes courage, but I would love to help you through this time of need. It can be difficult when those closest to you cannot understand or empathize with what you need, or when you find yourself withdrawing from them in turn. I also work with anger management, abuse tempering and impulse control for those with problems on the sociopathic side.

Welcome to your safe, personal retreat where a cozy, comfortable sofa, soothing music, fresh aroma and coffee/soda with a light snack awaits your arrival! Also awaiting you is me, a counselor who is warm, creative, humble, engaging and passionate about helping people,. As a fellow sojourner, I have experienced and thrived beyond my own trauma/losses and have a desire to give back. Life can can be difficult. Past events, traumatic experiences, negative attitude/beliefs, addictions or destructive behaviors can be detrimental in all aspects of life, driving a person's behavior and thinking in ineffective ways. Counseling can provide a "sacred space" to begin sorting out issues of the heart so that freedom can begin take hold and hope and contentment are restored. I integrate Christian principles and explore solutions that fit for you . Carl Rogers stated, "The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change." Using both verbal and non verbal evidence based therapies, as I do, utilizes two different parts of the brain, making therapy more integrated and effective. Examples of these therapies that I use would include: cognitive behavioral, Gestalt, EMDR, family systems, sand tray, play therapy, person centered, and psychodynamic. I enjoy working with children, teen, adults, couples and families. I have experience working closely with 12 step programs, like Alanon, for family members, and children/teens affected by addictions and those recovering from addictions. I commend you for your bravery and look forward to the privilege of working with you!

I believe everyone has the capacity to change and improve the quality of their life, no matter what has happened. My style of counseling combines working with insight and cognitive therapy, which explores past events in light of how the choices we now make affect well - being. I also utilize an awareness approach, whereby, getting in touch and releasing the feelings in the body helps to create a new sense of relief and empowerment.
