Congratulations for taking your first step towards a happier, healthier, more fulfilling life! It takes courage and wisdom to seek help, and I’m so glad that you’ve decided that you deserve more out of life. Life struggles are painful and can feel overwhelming. But they can also be gifts in disguise, pushing us to get out of our comfort zones, get out of auto-pilot, examine why we do what we do, and break free of old patterns that are not working for us. In essence, pain is a signal for an opportunity for growth. I would be honored to work in partnership with you to inspire, motivate, educate, empower and support as you work towards the life that you want. My name is Sandra Treston, and I am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with over 15 years of experience working with adults facing multiple different obstacles, in multiple different settings. I am an open-minded, non-judgmental, empathetic and compassionate therapist who uses a strength-based approach when helping my clients become the best version of themselves. I truly believe that we all have what we need inside of us to achieve our wildest dreams, but many times life hits us and we forget just how magnificent we are. I will work with you to provide the skills, support, encouragement, and sounding board you need to help you rediscover the strength, wisdom, and courage you always had. My goal is to inspire and challenge you to face your obstacles head-on, and together we will create a plan of action what will align you with your best version and vision of yourself. I’m very excited to start working with you! Wishing you peace of mind, and total wellness always, Sandra Treston

My name is Natalie S. Dukes and I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 20 years of experience working with clients from a wide variety of demographic and cultural backgrounds. I have worked with clients with concerns including anger management, depression, ADHD, OCD, family/relationship issues, anxiety, trauma and domestic violence just to name a few. I know that no single approach is the right one for every individual, so I use a wide range of modalities including Cognitive Behavioral, Family Systems Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Person Centered Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Exposure Therapy, Psychodrama, Play Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Biofeedback, Coaching and Reality Therapy. My belief is when human beings experience trauma or severe life stressors, it is not uncommon for their lives to unravel. My great passion is bringing healing to people who have been through a traumatic/stressful experience. I help clients, who include children, adults, couples and families, to find healthy perceptions of themselves and strengthen their relationships so they know themselves as peaceful, complete, whole and safe. With that being said, consider allowing me to assist you with the therapeutic process and Role of Recovery.

Hi and welcome! I believe that finding the right fit for your counselor is an important step in this journey of feeling better, and I'm grateful you've decided to take the time and read mine. I have been a social worker for eight years and a life coach and counselor for a decade working with a variety of people including individuals, groups, and children. Currently, I run a small private practice and mental coaching business for athletes looking to access their competitive potential. I would say my experience has been quite varied. I've practiced in substance use facilities, 6-12 grade in public schools, community field work, with young adults, and I also work in the world of collegiate athletics. I feel my best as a therapist when I can work with my clients to develop goals and clear pathways to success however that may look. I also crossover into other aspects of practice that include LGBTQ+ populations, multicultural issues, and trauma. I appreciate therapeutic styles and approaches that consider multicultural considerations and that value diversity. I practice cultural humility when engaging in work with individuals who have cultural considerations especially those I can learn from myself. I’m thrilled you’re here looking for relief and I hope I can be a part of your team to support you. *Please note that I am currently only accepting new members who are looking to message or chat for live scheduled sessions* Let’s get at it!
