Because trauma and pain often originate in relationships, they can be effectively healed and overcome in relationships. I want to help you to process and resolve the issues that are preventing you from feeling better, accomplishing your goals, and becoming the best version on yourself.
Greetings, I'm Debbie Palmer Thomas, a clinical social worker from Colorado. My approach to counseling is both welcoming and engaging. I uphold the values of respect, understanding, and kindness in every interaction. I firmly believe that everyone possesses inherent strengths, and with a sprinkle of hope, resilience is within reach for all. When you're prepared to make that leap, know that I stand by your side, ready to uplift and guide you.
Welcome! Great to meet you. I’m Maria Bennett, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP).
I provide compassionate, evidence-based mental health care for individuals across the lifespan. My approach to treatment is collaborative and tailored to each person’s unique needs, values, and goals. Whether you're seeking support for anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, or mood disorders, my goal is to help you feel heard, supported, and empowered. I hold a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) with a specialization in psychiatric mental health from Herzing University, and I’m certified by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC). My clinical background includes experience in outpatient psychiatry, community mental health, crisis stabilization, and integrated care settings.
Welcome! My name is Jessica I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional (CCATP). I specialize in anxiety, stress management, and low self-esteem for ages 18+. I also am a Certified Clinical Supervisor and provide clinical supervision to LAC/LSW's working toward licensure.
I've been working in the field for over 10 years. I have a well rounded experience working in a number of therapeutic settings such as outpatient, psychiatric care, and school systems.
I received my Master's of Clinical Social Work from Rutgers University. I also have studied Psychology and Early Childhood Education.
Reaching out for therapy takes something, and I want the first conversation to feel like a relief rather than a test. My work starts with getting to know who you are and what you're carrying, not with a diagnosis.
Therapy is self-care. I want my client's therapeutic experience to be the best one possible as I know they are using the small amount of time they have to work on themselves. I am the therapist I would want for myself. I am collaborative, knowledgeable, I help simplify the complicated, put words to experiences, feelings, and thoughts, and guide clients in what to do with their findings. I am the therapist you do "the work" with.

I work with high achieving, type A women. Together, you and I will create ways to stop being a people pleaser, have more time for yourself, find balance instead of burnout, feel joy, and create joy for yourself and those around you. Get rid of the guilt and the exhaustion from focusing on everyone but yourself. Learn what makes you happy! What makes you thrive! Learn holistic, self-care that makes you feel amazing.
I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who works with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, burnout, and life transitions. I understand that even high-functioning, capable individuals can feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or stuck despite doing their best to manage daily responsibilities.
My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and respected. I believe therapy should feel collaborative and practical — not intimidating. Whether you’re facing ongoing stress, processing past experiences, or seeking greater clarity in your career or personal life, I’m here to support meaningful and sustainable change.
