Why did you become a therapist, and what motivates you to continue?

I became a therapist because I know that people get stuck and want to change. I believe that the happiness of a larger community is dependent on each individual member thriving. To help individuals thrive they need support with challenges caused by anxiety, depression, a learning disability, or ADHD. I worked a variety of jobs with people who were stuck in life, with work, or in relationships before I attended my master's program at Loyola Marymount University. I saw first-hand how stuck individuals impact communities. This created a passion in me to help other people grow. I've been a therapist for 19 years, and I have helped people become unstuck. I have helped people feel better about themselves and the lives they lead.

I have a passion for helping people who have educational and relational challenges due to ADHD & neurodivergence. I can help you if you are struggling in a relationship due to infidelity or divorce or just can't find the relationship you know you need. Many people who come to me are experiencing anxiety, depression, are unsure about how to help themself with stress or procrastination, feelings of instability during a life transition. Therapy is a wonderful opportunity for support, to grow insight, and make change. It's scary when you don't know why things aren't going your way. I have helped people understand their behaviors, feelings, and brain chemistry so they can be happier. We will focus on strengthening your mental well-being and helping you be true to yourself and the people you love. I do individual and couple's therapy.

I truly have a heart for people who have been through trauma. Walking along side clients as they work towards being able to gain hope, a greater self-esteem, and take steps towards a life they want to live is so powerful. You have a story to tell, a voice that deserves to be heard. As long as there is even one person that needs to be heard, I want to continue to be a therapist that listens well.

Now accepting NEW clients with daytime and limited evening availability! Every person has a story to tell, a life that matters. I have always been a listener and value the importance of someone's story. I work with teenagers and women who have been through traumatic experiences, who have a story to tell. My desire is that my clients have a safe, warm place where they feel comfortable opening up. I aim to make sure that every client feels seen, heard, and valued as they navigate through their trauma, anxiety, depression, and daily life struggles.

I was raised in a Caribbean household where mental health treatment was a non issue. I became a therapist because I understand what it's like to seek non-existent help. Emotions exist and they're hard but I can help people cope with the messy stuff.

Let's see, I've been a therapist for about 14 years. I am married, in a blended family of 6 kids and to honest, I'm by far the funniest person in our family regardless of what any of those kids say. Therapy can be difficult because you have to find your person. Contact me and let's see if we vibe.

I knew I wanted to become a therapist from a young age. All of the steps I have taken since then have been to accomplish this goal. Simply put, I became a therapist because of what I have been through in my life. I am full of empathy and compassion and have always felt that one of my main purposes on this earth is to help others. What motivates me to continue this work is knowing that many individuals do not have a safe space to express their deepest feelings. It is a privilege to be able to provide such a space for others.

Hello and welcome to this amazing journey! I know that change be scary: It is also empowering and freeing. I am intentional about working on myself and taking care of myself so that I can best help others. I absolutely love what I do. I specialize in working with adults struggling with ADHD, OCD, anxiety, panic, difficult life transitions, self-esteem, and relationship issues. 

I’m very passionate about psychology and mental health. I love the challenge to understand each of my clients better and help them in the specific ways they’re looking for and needing guidance and support. 

I provide mental health counseling from the comfort of your home for adults ages 18+. I accept various insurances and out of pocket payment. My approach is rooted in acceptance, gentleness, and genuine reflection. I have experience working with various challenges including depression, anxiety, neurodiversity/autism, ADHD, those going through life transitions, breakups, separation/divorce. I also enjoy working with those suffering from physical injury or disability, athletes, and career minded individuals. Please contact me with any questions! 

I became a therapist because of experiencing first hand heartache with mental health issues in my family as a child. I was curious as to how and why this happens and wanted to learn how to help. My interest in psychology has not changed since then! My high school guidance counselor's response and support of me when I was experiencing significant grief and loss as a teenager is also the reason I became a therapist. What continues to motivate me is my constant thirst of knowledge, the joy I feel with helping people, and the flexibility of combining art into my practice, which is a passion of mine. I love researching, in depth learning, being creative and am generally energized by engagement with people. My motto is from my undergrad school Virginia Tech, which is Ut Prosim. Ut Prosim essentially means "That I May Serve." I live by this motto. I have worked in community mental health, non profit organizations for domestic violence survivors, hospitals, a police department and in school environments in Chicago, IL and Dallas, TX. I have been a private practice owner since 2019. Individual services begin at $200. I currently do not accept insurance, but am able to provide sliding scale. I also accept FSA/HSA. I look forward to being a part of your journey, whether individually or in a community healing environment!

I became a therapist because I’ve always been passionate about helping others find balance and joy in their lives. Early in my nursing career, I realized the profound impact mental health has on overall well-being, and I wanted to be part of a field that helps people overcome their emotional and psychological challenges. What continues to motivate me is witnessing the transformation in my patients. Every time I see someone regain hope, find peace, or achieve their goals, it reminds me why I chose this path. Mental health care is not just about treating symptoms but understanding the whole person, and it’s incredibly rewarding to help someone discover their path to wellness. My holistic, patient-centered approach allows me to connect deeply with each individual, making the work not only meaningful but also a source of inspiration.

I’m dedicated to offering top-notch care to each of my patients. My goal is to make every visit comfortable, clear, and personalized just for you. With years of experience, I’m here to support your mental health with kindness and a holistic approach. I believe in looking beyond symptoms to understand the whole person, so we can come up with treatments that truly fit you. Your well-being is my main focus, and I’m excited to help you reach your mental health goals. Together, we can create a plan that meets your needs and boosts your overall wellness. As a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I provide a whole person approach to mental health. I will work with you to create a holistic, integrative plan that addresses both health and lifestyle factors to help you reach optimal mental wellness. I work with adults who are seeking professionally guided and scientifically based help for anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, and trauma.

I became a therapist because I’ve always been deeply drawn to understanding people, not just what they show on the outside, but what they carry quietly within. From an early age, I noticed how healing it could be when someone feels truly seen, heard, and accepted. I’ve faced moments in my own life where I longed for that kind of connection, and now I feel honored to offer it to others. Becoming a therapist allows me to walk alongside people in their hardest seasons, helping them rediscover their strength and build a life that feels more whole and meaningful.

Hi, I’m Sandra Williams—a licensed professional counselor committed to walking alongside individuals as they navigate life’s complexities. My approach is warm, grounded, and deeply person-centered. I believe that therapy is not about “fixing” anyone, but about helping you uncover the strength and wisdom you already carry within. With a focus on creating a safe, affirming space, I work with adults and adolescents dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship struggles, and life transitions. Using evidence-based techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, and narrative therapy, I tailor each session to your unique needs and goals. Whether you’re facing something new or carrying something long-standing, you don’t have to go through it alone. Therapy with me is a place where you can exhale, explore, and grow. Let’s begin where you are—with openness, curiosity, and a shared commitment to your healing.

As a person who is neurodivergent myself, it is important to me to work with a diverse community.
