In our time together, we will explore how the challenges you've faced in the past, and those you're facing in the present, affect the ways in which you feel, think, and act. Together, we will identify patterns that adversely affect your progress, and identify tangible strategies for change. And we will find ways to enhance your connections to others and understanding of yourself so that the changes you make will last. I believe you will experience me as genuine, curious, and direct. We will likely laugh a lot as we challenge old assumptions and create new ways of approaching problems. That said, the work we do in therapy is serious; in our work, you will experience acceptance and connection that will make it easier to talk about hard things. It's essential that you find a therapist with whom you feel comfortable and understood. I'm happy to provide a free 10 minute consultation where we can get to know one another and decide whether we would be a good fit therapeutically.

You want your mojo back! Or, are you stressed about some big obstacle - related to your health or a family conflict - but you don’t know how to solve it? Maybe you’re not getting along with friends, family, or your partner like you used to. There’s some problem that you just can’t solve even though you’ve tried. You ask “What do I do now?” You’re in the right place! I’m an experienced Psychologist, and I work with adults to help them think about and talk things through.

New year, same shit? Let's change that. You might struggle with communicating what you need or want from others, or maybe you have no control over your emotions or reactions. If you feel like you've lost any power over the direction of your life- you're in the right place. In therapy with me, you'll get direct feedback about what's not working, learn tangible skills to manage emotions, and learn to speak up about what you need and want in life (even if that sounds terrifying). You already have the skills to break your cycles- let me help! I work the most with clients who struggle with worry, low mood and energy, feelings of guilt and shame, and relationship issues of all kinds (friends, family, romantic, etc). I am a direct, honest, humorous, and irreverent therapist who is dedicated to helping you live a better life. My clients say my style is "no nonsense". Therapy can be daunting, I get it- never the wrong time to get started. I make therapy approachable and simple. If you are ready to get to work, email me! I respond within one business day and will reach out to schedule a free 20 minute virtual consultation. I can't wait to hear from you!

You’re tired of trying so hard and feeling like you just keep failing. You want to be a good wife, mom, and Christian. Yet, you constantly feel overwhelmed and are struggling to find the joy and peace it seems like you should have as a Christian. Instead, you’re finding yourself yelling at your family, melting down, and crying yourself to sleep. Sometimes it seems like you can’t stop crying. You often feel on edge and this feeling is becoming intolerable. You’ve been told you just need to pray and trust God more. You do pray and read the Bible and don’t understand why you still feel so sad and anxious. You need to find someone who isn’t going to judge you and can help you make sense of the mental and emotional battles you seem to keep fighting. I am passionate about supporting Christian women experiencing feelings of anxiety and depression, along with the unique challenges these can often pose to your faith. I partner with you to help you explore how you’re not alone in these struggles. Through my person-centered approach, I support you in reaching a better understanding of yourself, your experiences, and the role of your faith in your challenges. If you're ready for a safe space to get support, call me today or check out my website for more information.

**ONLINE SCHEDULING, EVENINGS AVAILABLE** Therapy should be about YOU. There is no one-size-fits-all solution in life. Everyone is unique in their own way. People come from all kinds of different circumstances, they see things in different ways, process information, and react to the world differently. I understand this. That is why I enter each counseling session focused solely on the person in front of me. My person-centered approach means I treat the whole of a person based on what works for them as an individual. I offer a judgement free and encouraging environment to discuss the issues you want to tackle. A licensed professional counselor, I am trained in a variety of therapeutic approaches including Cognitive-Behavioral, Eclectic, Reality/Choice, Brief, and Solution-Focused therapies. I make myself available to my clients. Together we will determine which course of action to take based on your unique needs. My goal is simple—find a solution that works for you. You don’t have to navigate life’s many ups and downs on your own. I want to help you create positive changes in an encouraging and supportive environment.

I hope to partner with you! I will offer clinical expertise in perinatal issues, trauma, and attachment. I lean into my own lived perinatal experiences within the client-therapist dynamic. What I’ve found matters most is finding someone to walk alongside you. We are wired for connection, and despite what the movies portray the fertility, pregnancy and/or postpartum experience to look like, it can be a time where you feel cut off from others and yourself in unexpected ways. Previous pregnancy loss and miscarriage can also impact an experience we’ve longed for. I am trained in EMDR, CPT, and Seleni Institute Perinatal Mood & Anxiety Disorders, Perinatal Loss and Grief, and Maternal Mental Health Intensive for Young Parents. I value sharing information with clients so my approach includes psychoeducation and collaboration with clients and their unique support networks. I use talk therapy, CBT + community building. It is not a requirement for a therapist to have lived experience and certainly every experience is unique, but that “I see you” in perinatal focused therapy truly hits differently when your therapist has walked through those dark, lonely, scary places of pregnancy, postpartum, and parenting too.

Marcelle Abusalbi is a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. She is passionate about helping adolescents and adults address both past and present challenges. Marcelle specializes in anxiety, depression, bipolar, ADHD, PTSD, and trauma. Marcelle completed her Master of Arts in Counseling at St. Edward’s University. Her approach is based on cognitive behavioral therapy, which ties emotions and behaviors to specific "automatic thoughts." These thoughts can be subconscious and are learned over time from our experiences. A key to counseling is uncovering these cognitive distortions, recognizing how they affect our reactions, and replacing them with more adaptive ones. Recognizing that seeking therapy can be intimidating, Marcelle uses a warm and inviting approach, believing above all in creating a safe and non-judgmental space. Her approach is relaxed and supportive, and her goal is to work with clients to develop self-awareness and build coping skills.
