Are you struggling with anxiety or panic attacks? Are you having challenges with sleep, racing thoughts, or feeling on edge? Is it hard for you to say no and stand up for yourself? Do you feel like you can’t express your needs in relationships? If life feels overwhelming, therapy can help you to feel confident in your decision making ability and empowered to set boundaries that work for you. You can assert your needs without feeling guilty.

My professional background is working with clients struggling with traumatic stress disorders, substance use disorders, self-harm, and mood disorders. I have a strong background working with adolescents and adults in the LGBTQIA+ community specializing in gender trauma and other traumas associated within the LGBTQIA+ community facilitating group therapy and individual sessions. My clients come from many backgrounds and present with many issues, but all share the desire to be heard and helped.

Do you often feel anxious, sad, or stuck? Maybe you're having trouble in relationships or with your family, dealing with the effects of a difficult experience, or going through a tough period. It could be that you're questioning your identity or facing challenges from societal or family pressures while trying to discover your true self. Life doesn't always have to be so difficult. I will support you where you are and guide you toward becoming the person you want to be.

Joy Walsh

It always amazes me the complete turn around clients can do with the tools they already have, they just needed to discover, reorganize or sharpen a few things. Clients who typically seek me out are looking for a therapist who specializes in trauma, perinatal or postpartum issues, women's issues, anxiety or who can help support them in a significant life transition. I am excited to offer you a space to heal, learn and feel you are not alone.

Do you feel like your relationship has lost the connection that it once had? Have you found yourself struggling to be heard, understood and accepted by others? Do you find yourself in arguments with your partner that feel like the same one over and over again? If you have answered yes to any of these questions then you are not alone. I work with many clients who find themselves feeling stuck in life and their relationships without knowing what to do next.

Have you been disappointed by treatments that don't work and providers that don't get it? Are you tired of having to keep parts of yourself in the closet or check them outside the therapist's door? Utilizing a biopsychosocial-spiritual approach to therapy, Jordan invites clients to show-up and be seen as their full selves, worthy and capable of care. You are welcome here.

Erica Essary

People I work with are often overwhelmed with what is happening in their lives and feel they do not have the tools and/or the mental resources to get through these issues on their own. They may be dealing with anxiety or depression symptoms or both. People may also feel they are trying their best to be there for others, their work, or their education, and realize they are not showing up for themselves and their needs. I help people create boundaries in their lives and practice self-care.

Online Therapy

Travis Musich

I specialize in serving individuals who feel disconnected from themselves and others due to traumatic experiences or mental health issues like anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship struggles. My ideal clients are seeking a judgment-free space to explore their inner world and process emotions that feel overwhelming or unclear. My expertise is creating a calm, empathic environment for you to develop self-awareness, find relief, and embrace all of your authentic self.
