Anxiety, depression, and overwhelming feelings can weigh you down. Quite frankly, it can feel like a real B-Word sometimes! I hear you. Many times, overwhelming feelings can pull you away from living your best life and living to your potential. Hello, I am Alexann Masiko-Meyer, I am an eclectic counselor that would be filled with gratitude to support you. I am an LCMHC (Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor) providing services in North Carolina, New Jersey, Canada, England, United Arab Emirates, Japan, China, New Zealand.... and growing Lets get back to living life unapologetically! SPECIALTIES Stress, Anxiety Depression Self esteem Adjustments / Life Changes Military Transitions Teens & Young Adults I also have experience in LGBTQ, Relationship issues, Trauma and abuse, Grief, Anger management, Bipolar disorder, Coping with life changes Years of Experience: 5 I expect nothing less than being held to professional standards. However, in full disclosure, I don't take myself too seriously, and I wholeheartedly feel that being a bit goofy, and being quirky, and maybe a bid different is okay! Many times, it is more than ok, and what makes us more of an individual, helps on the journey to wellness, being unapologetically yourself, putting a laugh out there to the universe and finding the good things in life along the way. Humor and levity may be evident and incorporated into the therapeutic process. I feel that everyone should have the ability to access mental wellness support and counseling. As a military spouse, and moving all over the country for 18 years, allthewhile working in the helping profession, I have grown to recognize the cultural apprehension, inability to access and equity issues that surround access to counseling. Summer Sessions Counseling is founded on the belief that mental wellness support should be accessible by everyone without stigma, physical access and transportation barriers, without requiring a diagnosis, to access one's best self. What is therapy like? What can I expect from my first session? The first session is typically a review of information you supplied on your intake form and address concerns that you may have. As you progress in your therapeutic journey, you will get into the real nitty gritty, strategies & processing activities, psychotherapy, counseling activities, art therapy, journaling and carving a new path to your ultimate goal.
Do you feel like adulting is just too much sometimes? Especially when you're juggling finances, relationships, work, and all the things? What about feeling overwhelmed with emotions you can't name or even feeling completely disconnected mentally, emotionally, and physically? Do you find yourself doomscrolling at 3am, diagnosing with the latest TikTok symptoms or shaming yourself over LinkedIn comparisons? Maybe you're highly self-aware and have 20 books on exactly what's wrong (hello, intellectualizing!) but still feel stuck. And that family trauma they swear never happened? Yeah, it's still showing up in your life today. I get it. I'm the opposite of a blank slate therapist. One who keeps it real—not just with a "yeah...okay...mmm" and nod. Using a holistic approach, I help Gen Z and Millennials that are seeking deep healing and liberation. Together, we'll move beyond just understanding your patterns to creating real change, using evidence-based tools for your mind, body, and soul. If you want to get unstuck, break those generational cycles, and start thriving (not just surviving), I can help. Even if you don't think your challenges are "serious enough" for therapy, you deserve support too. Ready to create a life that feels aligned and authentically yours? Schedule an intake or free 15 min consultation and let's see if we're a good fit!
My ideal clients are individuals navigating the weight of depression, anxiety, trauma (including spiritual), or chronic health struggles. They’re seeking a safe space to be heard, to find clarity, and to build a path toward healing and balance. With specialized training in EMDR, Trauma-Focused CBT, CBT for chronic pain, and Acceptance Commitment Therapy, I offer a compassionate, tailored approach to help clients process their experiences, regain control, and create meaningful, lasting change in their lives. I’m deeply passionate about walking alongside you on your journey to healing and self-discovery. Together, we’ll build healthy boundaries, ignite your inner strength, and create meaningful, lasting change. My mission is to provide a safe, empowering space where you feel truly seen and supported as the expert of your own life. Life’s journey is full of twists, turns, and unexpected challenges, and it’s okay to feel stuck or unsure along the way. I’d be honored to walk beside you, offering compassion, understanding, and tools to help you navigate it. Together, we can uncover your strengths, embrace growth, and create a path forward that feels true to you.
Do you struggle with codependency? Constantly seeking reassurance from others? People pleasing? Low self-esteem? Or maybe you’ve been struggling with maintaining relationships with others, issues with commitment, hyper-independence, or fear of abandonment? I know how heavy this can feel, and I would like you to know that you do not have to suffer in silence! I am an attachment-based therapist that focuses on how trauma impacts how you view yourself & others. Struggling with attachment issues often results in having issues with trusting and/or connecting to others. I would like to walk with you through your journey of healing. I form a collaborative therapeutic relationship with clients to help them take an active role in their healing. My goal is to help you address trauma so that you can form healthy and meaningful relationships. We will explore how past trauma is showing up in your current relationships with others, and how it is affecting your relationship with yourself. I aim to serve as a reminder to you that a positive life after pain is possible with the right tools & coping skills. My goal is to remind you that your strength & value comes from within. Your past does not define who you are today. You deserve peace. Show yourself grace, and schedule a free 15 minute consultation to start your process of healing.
Hi, I’m Regina (she/her), a queer, neurodivergent therapist who believes healing happens in spaces where you’re truly seen and affirmed. I bring compassion, curiosity, and a healthy dose of irreverence into the therapy room, and I deeply value the trust it takes to show up authentically—especially when the world hasn’t always made space for who you are. I primarily work with women and nonbinary adults—especially those who are late-diagnosed neurodivergent, part of the LGBTQ+ community, or navigating non-traditional relationships (like ENM or kink). If you're untangling trauma, questioning your place in a society that often feels hostile or broken, or working to rebuild self-worth in a neurotypical, cis-hetero world—you’re in the right place. My approach is eclectic and collaborative. I draw from a variety of therapeutic modalities to meet your unique needs, rather than forcing you into a one-size-fits-all mold. This work isn’t about “fixing” you—it’s about reconnecting with your values, making meaning, and feeling more at home in your own mind and body. If you’re looking for a therapist who affirms your identity, respects your complexity, and understands what it means to feel like an outsider—I’d be honored to walk with you. Schedule a free consultation so we can chat about whether I’d be a good fit.
I am passionate about helping other people improve their health and have dedicated my nursing career toward continually achieving this goal. I am honored to have been a registered nurse for 17 years, with most of that time spent in a major metropolitan hospital responding to medical emergencies as part of the facility’s Rapid Response Team. After gaining a wealth of experience performing rapid assessments and thus improving the physiological and mental health needs of patients in crisis, it made sense for me to evolve and find a niche that focused solely on psychiatric-mental health nursing. I approach new clients with the belief that they should be encouraged to speak freely, which is a fundamentally important step towards establishing clear goals and objectives. Furthermore, I would like my clients to feel comfortable being an active participant and engaged in improving their mental well-being. The goal of our time together is quite simply to help you start to feel better and improve the quality of your life. I would like you to feel comfortable enough to share the issues that are most challenging and burdensome so that we may work towards addressing them head on. Our initial encounter will include learning your history, how you’ve been feeling, any past successes and/or failures with medications, and then collaborating towards a plan to achieving the goal of feeling better and improving your mental health.
Do you realize that you are allowed to be a masterpiece and a work in progress at the same time? Adults and children alike can be successful in many aspects of life but face difficult seasons. Are you facing a life challenge and need help navigating the decision making process? Is your child having a hard time adjusting to a recent change or new life experiences? Have you always handled everything yourself, but just feel stuck right now? The good news is that you don’t have to stay that way. It's ok to reach out! As a long-time educator, I’ve had the honor to walk alongside children (and their parents) to work through challenges of all kinds. As a therapist, my goal is to offer a safe space where you or your child can feel heard, understood, and valued. Utilizing a variety of techniques, we can identify your concerns and work together to initiate meaningful change. Whether your concerns lie at school, home, or work, I am honored to guide you through navigating challenges and empower you to take action and get back to being your best. Come as you are, whether in person or via telehealth, and make yourself at home!

I work frequently with young adults as they manage increasing independence, college and work. I understand the challenges involved with balancing academic requirements, personal stressors and self care. Additionally, I am experienced in helping clients who are wanting to change their relationship patterns and behaviors, and those struggling to find effective ways to deal with symptoms related to depression, anxiety, and codependency. As a clinical psychologist, I assist my clients in meeting their goals and improving their relationships. Therapy is used to improve communication, coping skills and problem solving. One of my areas of expertise is in helping clients who are working through a particularly challenging time in their lives, and having difficulty moving forward from their experience. By encouraging self expression, increased insight and problem solving in therapy, I work collaboratively with clients to facilitate positive changes. Improving self esteem through greater understanding and acceptance of oneself is part of that work.

My approach is collaborative and down-to-earth, focusing on what’s actually affecting your day-to-day life and school experience. I combine medication management with practical, skills-based strategies like motivational interviewing, DBT skills, ACT, and interpersonal therapy to help you feel more steady, focused, and supported.
Hello! I'm a First-gen, Spanish-speaking, and culturally responsive counselor. I specialize in working with individuals who feel stuck in cycles of anxiety (constant worry/fear), shame, trauma, or self-doubt. I want to be able to provide a safe space to dive deeper into some of your concerns. I want to work together to set goals and find solutions to the problems you may be facing. You don't have to carry this alone. Together, we will work intentionally to help you navigate important moments in your life. - Maribel
Through play therapy, even young children (ages 3+) can express big feelings in a safe and nurturing way. I support children experiencing family changes—such as divorce, separation, or parenting transitions—while helping them build coping skills, confidence, and healthy communication. I also work with teens and adults navigating stress, anxiety, life transitions, and self-worth challenges. My approach is encouraging, supportive, and focused on helping each client feel understood and empowered. Using play-based techniques and parent–child interaction strategies, I guide children in expressing emotions, developing self-regulation, and improving interactions at home and school. I also offer parents practical tools and psychoeducation to continue the progress outside the therapy room. For clients who wish to incorporate faith or spirituality into their healing, I provide an integrated approach that honors and supports those values. Whether you’re seeking support for your child, teen, or yourself, I would be honored to walk alongside you on your journey toward growth, healing, and emotional well-being.

Great to meet you! Hello, I’m Anjanette McCullar, a Licensed Professional Counselor with a strong background in education, counseling, and wellness. My path to counseling has been shaped by more than 15 years of working with children, adolescents, families, and communities—as a teacher, school counselor, group facilitator, and now therapist. I hold multiple degrees, including a Master’s in School Counseling and a Master’s in Educational Administration, along with specialized training in counseling, restorative yoga, and children’s yoga. This blend of education and wellness training allows me to approach therapy from a holistic perspective—supporting not only your mental and emotional well-being, but also recognizing how physical health, lifestyle, and environment influence your life. In my counseling work, I draw on my experience in both school and community settings to help clients navigate challenges such as life transitions, grief and loss, relationship dynamics, anxiety, self-esteem, and stress management. I believe therapy is a collaborative process, and I work to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow. Because of my background in athletics, coaching, and wellness practices, I also integrate mindfulness, movement, and practical coping strategies when they align with your needs and goals.

Above all, my goal is to meet you where you are, help you discover your strengths, and walk alongside you as you move toward healing and a more fulfilling life.

I work to balance compassion with gentle challenges that help you grow, all while creating a safe, nonjudgmental environment where you can be your authentic self.

What you can expect from our first session In our sessions, you can expect a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where you feel safe to share your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, understood, and respected—no matter what challenges you are facing.

Develop coping strategies that help you manage stress, anxiety, and life transitions more effectively. Strengthen relationships by improving communication skills and setting healthy boundaries. Build resilience so you can face challenges with greater confidence and flexibility. Enhance overall well-being through a whole-person approach that considers your mental, emotional, physical, and social health. My sessions are collaborative—I will guide, support, and challenge you when needed, but you will always be an active partner in your own growth. Depending on your needs, we may integrate mindfulness, movement-based practices, and practical tools you can use in everyday life. By the end of our work together, my hope is that you feel more empowered, more connected to yourself, and more confident in navigating whatever life brings your way.
