Hello, I’m Dr. Leslie Capehart, an LMHC with over 25 years of experience across clinical settings, private practice, and academia.
At some point, most people find themselves feeling stuck—whether it’s anxiety, depression, relationship stress, or just a sense that something isn’t working but you can’t quite put your finger on it. It can feel overwhelming, frustrating, and at times like you’re repeating the same patterns without understanding why. That’s where I come in.
My approach is straightforward, collaborative, and focused on helping you actually move forward. I’ll support you, but I’ll also challenge you to look more closely at the patterns, assumptions, and blind spots that may be keeping you stuck. Together, we’ll identify what’s no longer working, shift the thinking patterns behind it, and build practical tools you can use in your day-to-day life.
I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, and self-esteem, with a focus on helping you gain clarity, make meaningful changes, and stop repeating what isn’t working.
***Please note that I don't specialize in working with addiction issues, and if that is something you are actively struggling with, I encourage you to look for a provider who specializes in working in addictions. It's important you find the best person for you.

I work with high-performing professionals who are exhausted from carrying too much responsibility for too long. Many of my clients are leaders, healthcare providers, executives, and driven individuals who appear successful on the outside but feel overwhelmed, burned out, or emotionally depleted behind the scenes.
Before becoming a full-time therapist, I served in senior healthcare leadership roles, including Regional Vice President. I understand the pressure of performance plans, regulatory scrutiny, organizational instability, and the silent weight of being the person everyone else depends on.
In therapy, we focus on restoring clarity, rebuilding emotional resilience, and addressing the root causes of anxiety, trauma, and chronic stress. My approach integrates evidence-based cognitive and trauma-informed interventions with practical, real-world strategies that support both professional and personal stability.
If you are a high-achieving individual who feels stuck, overextended, or quietly unraveling under pressure, you are not weak. You are overloaded. Together, we will recalibrate your nervous system, strengthen your internal narrative, and restore sustainable performance without sacrificing your well-being.

Hi, I’m Ciera, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who is passionate about helping people slow down, make sense of their experiences, and reconnect with themselves in more authentic ways. Do you ever feel stuck, overwhelmed, or weighed down by stress and self-doubt? You don't have to navigate that alone; therapy can be a space to better understand those experiences and begin moving toward lasting change.
I believe healing happens when you feel understood, supported, and empowered to explore what’s been holding you back. Because every person’s story and needs are different, I tailor therapy to fit each client’s unique experiences and goals. Together, we’ll work toward greater clarity, emotional resilience, and a stronger connection with yourself.
When I’m not in session, you can usually find me recharging with a good book, spending time with loved ones, or moving my body through exercise. Just like my clients, I know life can feel like “too much” at times, but it can also be a place of growth, possibility, and meaning. My focus is to walk alongside you as you discover what that looks like for you.

Hey there. I'm Dennis aka Denny Bartsch. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has been in the field for over 15 years. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused, and Strength Based techniques in my practice. I'm a goofy social worker who likes to use a non-confrontational approach to working with my clients. I do believe that you know your story/life better than I ever will so I believe in what you have to say.
One thing that makes me pretty different from other service providers is that I saw a need for session times available for clients later in the day and evening so I decided to have my scheduled be from Monday through Friday's from 12:30pm EST to 9pm EST. I hope to accommodate more people this way.
I like to use humor and positive support for my client's as we go on this journey together to helping you achieve the goals we identify in session together. My goal is to work towards you having the skills, support, and confidence you need to be successful. I like to think outside of the box when I work with my client's so you just wait and see! Therapy doesn't need to be scary. Let's work together and maybe laugh through some of it. We got this! Together!

Anxious? Worried all the time? Having panic attacks? Well, you're not alone and I can help! In recent years, anxiety has become one of the most common mental health concerns out there and it can leave you distracted, breathless, overwhelmed and feeling out of control. Symptoms of general anxiety, panic disorders, health anxiety, OCD and PTSD can be difficult to navigate, especially when you feel alone and don't know where to start.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, a Licensed Clinical Addictions Counselor, and a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional. I have been in the counseling field for almost 30 years. I've worked in private practice throughout that time but have also worked in the criminal justice and community mental health settings, helping people with anxiety, depression, and addictions.
I work primarily with adults using cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and solution-focused therapy. I like helping people learn the neuroscience behind anxiety and build skills to manage it better. I love seeing people take back some of the power they feel they've lost to anxiety or helping them see the light at the end of the tunnel in depression or addiction. Taking the first step is one of the hardest, but things can feel better for you.

You’ve invested in being there for other people. Your time, your energy, the thought you put into making sure things work. What would it look like to give yourself that same commitment?
Hi, I’m Demetria Jackson, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Certified Trauma Therapist, and founder of Free to Flourish. I work with adults who are ready to give their own lives some real attention. You can appreciate what you’ve built and still decide there are things you no longer want to live with.
Here, you don’t have to explain everybody else’s side before we give yours some attention. We’ll look honestly at what hurts, what keeps repeating, and where you have choices you haven’t considered. We’ll look at your part, too, because that’s where some of your power to change things may be.
That’s the Restorative Instigator in me. I’m interested in what becomes possible when we stop accepting “that’s just how it is” as the final answer. My work draws on trauma therapy, EMDR, and Brainspotting. Bring your willingness to be honest and stay involved in the work. We’ll put it toward changes that matter in your everyday life.
You’ve shown up for a lot of people. It’s time to put yourself on that list and follow through. Think about what you want to be able to thank yourself for a year from now. Let’s start working toward it.
You’re not broken. You’re burdened. Let’s restore the balance.

Do you feel overwhelmed by anxiety, weighed down by depression, or stuck in patterns that no longer seem to work? Perhaps you're carrying the stress of a difficult relationship, navigating a major life change, struggling with constant worry or self-doubt, or simply exhausted from trying to hold everything together on your own. If so, you're not alone—and things can get better.
Therapy offers a supportive, evidence-based space to slow down, make sense of what you're experiencing, and develop practical tools for lasting change. You don't have to have everything figured out before you begin.
My practice focuses on teletherapy for adults and couples experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and life transitions. With decades of experience in private practice and clinical settings, I have helped individuals navigate stress, trauma, adjustment challenges, and difficult seasons of life. This experience has given me a grounded understanding of the many ways people can feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck.
Clients often tell me they appreciate that I am engaged, honest, and collaborative. I believe therapy should feel both safe and purposeful. Together, we'll identify the patterns keeping you stuck and work toward greater emotional clarity, resilience, and well-being.
Whether you're seeking therapy for the first time or returning with specific goals, I strive to create a warm, supportive space where you feel understood, respected, and empowered to make meaningful changes. My goal is to help you feel more confident in yourself, your relationships, and your ability to handle life's challenges.
If you're ready for things to feel different—to feel calmer, more connected, and more like yourself again—I invite you to schedule a consultation. Reaching out can be the first step toward feeling more hopeful, supported, and in control of your life.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over two decades of experience supporting adults through periods of stress, emotional overwhelm, life transitions, and relationship challenges. My work is grounded in the belief that meaningful change happens when people feel truly seen, understood, and supported.
I take a warm, collaborative approach to therapy and work to create a space that feels steady, thoughtful, and safe. I draw from psychodynamic, attachment-based, and trauma-informed perspectives to help clients better understand emotional patterns, strengthen coping skills, and navigate challenges with greater clarity and self-compassion.
Many of the clients I work with are high-functioning and capable, yet feel overwhelmed or disconnected beneath the surface. Others are moving through significant transitions and are looking for support as they sort through emotions, relationships, or long-standing patterns. Therapy with me is paced intentionally and tailored to each individual’s needs, goals, and life circumstances.

I work well with all kinds of people, and I especially click with gamers, students, and musicians - shared interests tend to lead to a better therapeutic connection.
I collaborate with my clients to develop goals and plans to meet those goals by working to understand what motivates you and pushes you to grow and change. I have a focus on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction.

Howdy! I'm Gabe! If you find yourself overwhelmed with thoughts that go by faster than you can catch them, or frozen in place in front of the many what-if's your mind has cooked up, you're in the right place! My focus lies in anxiety and related disorders. I am training to specialize in OCD, phobia, and panic disorder treatment, specifically in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP, or sometimes ExRP) in a manner that is compassionate, gentle, and effective. In addition, I also work to provide effective treatment to those struggling to enjoy things, feeling very low, or hopeless. I graduated from UCF in 2021 and right away fell into working with high-need clients with nonprofits Florida, but now have licenses in Indiana, Maryland, and Virginia as well. I have over 5 years of experience working as a therapist.
As a disclaimer, I don't use AI notetaking in my practice. I believe in privacy first and foremost.

Hi there! I'm Ross (he/him), and I'm so happy you are making the steps to focus on your mental health. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes therapy should feel like a safe, affirming space where you can be your authentic self without judgement. Because of this I focus primarily on using affirmative therapy as my main modality.
I specialize in working with young adults and adults, especially those in the LGBTQIA+ community, who may be navigating identity, relationships, anxiety, or life transitions. I also have experience with assisting those experiencing burnout whether from caregiving, work, or from other aspects of life!
My approach is person-centered and strengths-based, which means I'll meet you where you are, honor your experiences, and support you in building the confidence and tools you need to thrive. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, identity development, relationships, or navigating life in general I'd be happy to support you and walk with you through that journey.
I know it can be overwhelming to start therapy, but you don't have to go through this alone and I'd be honored to support you through those challenging times. Together, we'll focus on your strengths, explore what's meaningful to you, and help you move forward feeling more grounded, empowered, and understood.

What happens during the first therapy session?
What happens during the first therapy session?
Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
