To be fully alive in the 21st century, each of us has to make a conscious choice. Barriers can arise, challenging our ability to maintain personal values, stay mentally and emotionally stable, and live a life of our choosing. Mary works to help clients realize their version of a rich and balanced life. She provides a safe, supportive, judgment-free space to help you work through barriers that lie between where you are and where you want to be. What would you do if you knew you would not fail? Let's work together to find out. Mary B. Mattis at SoCo offers Clinical Supervision to LMSWs working toward LCSW status.

Have you ever looked in the mirror and thought that you should be further along in life by now? As an Asian American, you feel unsatisfied with where you are currently at in life, but you don't know where you should be headed. You might even feel like you lack the confidence to pursue your dreams. Maybe you also struggle with finding yourself again after having a baby.

As a queer and neurodivergent therapist, I am passionate about offering services for these communities. I support folks who are seeking a safe space to discuss their gender or sexual identity as well as folks simply wanting to work with a queer therapist. I also enjoy working with individuals who are wanting support as they explore their own neurodivergent identities. I am sex positive and welcome clients of sexual, relational, and gender diversity. I am poly/ethical non-monogamy affirming and kink aware. As a white individual, I am committed to doing my own anti-racism work to unlearn oppressive values.

Sometimes we all need guidance and a different perspective to problems that we don't know how to solve. Life is about growing from past experiences and making positive changes towards goals.

Are you struggling and don’t know why? I provide psychotherapy to individuals who feel lost, burned out, and want something better. I work with engineers, industry leaders, and high-achieving professionals who find that their excellence is not leaving them satisfied. I offer evidence-based treatments for depression, anxiety, and stress-related problems.

My clients often come to me looking for hope and to learn skills to deal with the stresses of life. I take a positive and practical approach to problems, providing support and guidance to help my clients navigate challenging life circumstances. My clients typically present with ADHD, anxiety, and depression, but I see clients with a wide range of symptoms encountered at all stages of life. Together we will determine what you want to work on and come up with a plan to get you started on your journey towards feeling better.

Let's face it: We have ALL experienced some type of negative situation in our lives. Whether it is divorce, death, or other traumatic experiences, you do not have to deal with these challenges alone. Maybe you are having issues in your job or relationships? Perhaps you are having a hard time functioning from day to day or experiencing behavioral issues in school? Regardless of the circumstances, my goal is to walk with you through these difficult times and assist you with discovering healthy coping skills and maintaining a positive lifestyle.

Sometimes we spend a lifetime searching for answers and trying to unravel the things that have occurred in our lives. Other times, we seek to learn about the future and pathways that we may want to lay out for ourselves. However, at the end of the day, we also need to learn about the present moments and how we transition throughout these various phases of life. Therapy is designed to provide support and a place of safety for the client to explore any and all things that may have already happened in their lives, and the events that may occur as their life continues on.

I specialize in guiding individuals dealing with issues including relationship challenges, setting healthy boundaries, managing anxiety, overcoming perfectionism, shedding people-pleasing tendencies, and adapting to major life changes, as well as adult ADHD. In short, many issues that I am personally, as well as professionally, very familiar with! If you're currently navigating any of these aspects of life, I am confident that we can work together to help you rediscover joy and contentment.

Welcome! I believe in empowering my clients to lean into their resilience and confront issues that they have been struggling with. Going to therapy is one of the most courageous actions to take, because it takes true strength to say, “I need support.” My purpose is to hold space for my clients to process and to leave each session feeling seen and heard! So, I am intentional about creating safety through being empathetic, compassionate, and non-judgmental.

Thank you for taking the time to prioritize your mental health. Life can be filled with ongoing challenges that can be difficult to navigate. I am here to walk alongside you and provide additional support as you face these obstacles. I primarily work with adolescents and young adults. Common issues that I address in therapy are: anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, racial justice, spirituality, and self-esteem. I encourage clients to set their goals in therapy and work with them to make progress toward these goals. I strive to create an environment that fosters a positive therapeutic relationship with each client.

Change can be hard work but it doesn't have to be lonely work. I will be there right along with you. Exploring how the past may be influencing the present and learning to make positive decisions in the here-and-now can be an empowering journey leading to lasting change. We can work through difficult experiences together and cultivate hope, make lasting change and realize goals. I am a firm believer in post-traumatic growth and know from personal experience that with therapy, disciplined effort and self-compassion, post-traumatic growth is possible.

Life is sometimes hard. Whether by circumstance, loss, relationships or simply having your fill of the same dissatisfying patterns, I provide safe haven and professional expertise to ease the burden and enlighten your path. Live your best life.

We all want to live in alignment with our values, pursuing our goals and passions, but we can get stuck at times, causing anxiety or distress. Sometimes the cause is a past trauma, negative self-concept, difficulty with coping, or something unexpected. I love to help people uncover and examine the roots of themselves, their thoughts, and their habits. This is how we gain awareness and the ability to make important inner shifts. My approach to therapy can be summed up with this quote from the poet Rumi: “Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.”

Hi it's Hilda, Are you feeling stuck in the past? Struggling to find a purpose or having healthy relationships? Counseling should be a valuable space for everyone to heal by learning from past experiences, finding new meanings, and enhancing our strengths.

Are you having a hard time managing things lately? Are you feeling worried or sad more than usual? Have you experienced a traumatic event? Are you having trouble understanding the aftermath of this event? If so I am here to help. You have made such a brave step towards healing! Trauma can deeply impact an individual on many levels. As a therapist my role is to empower my clients, help them reclaim their voice, and remind them of how important they are in this world. It is always an honor and privilege to join someone on their journey to healing, self love, and personal growth. All of my services are offered via Telehealth.

I am passionate about helping others enhance connections in their lives and live more authentically. I support clients experiencing anxiety, depression, and trauma by utilizing deep listening, collaboration, mindfulness, vulnerability, and building trust. I offer support around pregnancy, miscarriage, postpartum issues, parenting, divorce, men’s issues, career goals, and intergenerational trauma. Currently, I offer two therapy groups: a group for New Moms (babies welcome!) and a Men's Processing Group.

Now doing In Person Myofascial Release! Talk therapy will remain virtual. Let me help you make some big shifts in your life! Most of the reason why we sabotage or ruin our progress is because our unconscious self is driving our behaviors. I can help you to bring those unconscious beliefs into your awareness so you can change your behaviors that don't serve you anymore. As a body-centered therapist (LPC and LMT), I help people who may be stuck in their healing process and are in need of deep and active work. By utilizing both psychotherapy and Myofascial Release, I help clients heal more effectively.

The majority of my clients are looking for a therapist to help them work through a difficult stage of life, and I consider it an honor to be given that opportunity. I will provide a thorough assessment for you in our first session and set up a treatment plan together. I specialize in treating relationships, depression, anxiety, sexual disorders, trauma, and PTSD. I also have a great deal of experience working with those with Bipolar Disorder, personality disorders, sleep disorders, self-harm, and sex and pornography addiction. As an ally of the LGBT+ community, I work with individuals in any type of relationship.
