Gratiana Taylor
Hello, let me be the first to tell you that seeking therapy is a great way to make big changes in your life. I would absolutely love to assist you with making significant changes. You have already taken one step...just keep walking. For over ten years, I have been helping others explore and improve how they relate to the important and necessary people in life. I specialize in relationships and really enjoy couple counseling. I have worked with adult clients on issues related to depression, anxiety, grief and life transitions. I choose from cognitive behavioral, narrative, and family systems interventions to personalize my interventions for clients needs. I also provide psychoeducation by simplifying classroom theories and concepts. After learning something new, clients can then decide how they want to change their own lives. As a married mother of three young children, I stay pretty busy during the day homeschooling. However, I look forward to working online with my clients in the evenings. I love online counseling because of the flexibility it allows me to care for my family while doing what I love which is helping others. My clients report therapy helped them think differently about life. As a result, they feel differently and behave differently. Is that something you want...A difference? If so, let's get started.

Ebony Clayton
Hello and Welcome! My name is Ebony Clayton, LCSW and I’m thrilled about the opportunity to work with you. If you’re reading this, you have taken the first step towards healing and personal growth. I have training and experience in working with: depression, anxiety, relationship problems/marital difficulties, God-image issues, interaction with the foster care system, infertility, adoption and post adoptive support, and working with adolescents. I bring a well-rounded perspective into my therapy practice that integrates a wholistic (whole person centered) and eclectic approach, utilizing strategies that consider the interconnectedness of physical, spiritual, and mental/emotional health. Finding balance between these three is an important key to overall well-being. I use several evidenced based therapies in my practice such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Person Centered Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution Focused Therapy. Every person is unique in themselves and in their set of circumstances therefore I emphasize the key role of the minds cognitions in determining behaviors, and the interconnectedness between a person’s thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I structure my sessions based on client need while using unconditional positive regard and a nonjudgmental stance.

Miyisha Hollis
I find joy in working with all of my clients, while helping them navigate life's curveballs. Be it the unique challenges that arise individually, in a marriage, at home, at work, in school, in the police or fire departments, in the NFL, in the MLB, or in collegiate athletics. Or, after they lose themselves, their individual identity after starting a family, or retiring. Additionally, I have extensive experience working with clients who have trouble navigating issues related to anxiety, depression, sex, sexuality, and substance abuse. I draw from several therapeutic techniques and I tailor my approach to your specific needs. My primary goal is to understand your core values and who you really are. Through the therapeutic process, I’ve helped many clients through an array of outcomes. Therapy is not one size fits all, and I will assist you with finding your path to success.

Dr. Benjamin Lasky
I am a licensed psychologist in California and Nevada with over 20 years of experience. I specialize in LGBTQIA issues, my pronouns are ‘he and him.’ I also have worked over 10 years in a psychiatric hospital where I gained expertise with dual diagnosis patients (substance abuse issues + mental health disorder). I was also fortunate enough to work in the adolescent unit of the hospital as well. I earned my Ph.D. from Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana. I am also an educator to graduate students and provide supervision as they pursue their licenses. This helps keep me motivated to stay current with emerging trends in therapy. I mainly utilize cognitive-behavioral techniques as well as client-centered therapy. One of my favorite parts of conducting therapy is seeing diversity and being able to help those in all walks of life. I make no judgments and work hard to see things from the perspective of my clients. I see myself as a facilitator and I help my clients gain insight so they can tap into their strengths. Therapy is serious business, but I always like to use a bit of humor as appropriate. It is very important that everyone I work with feels valued and respected and I fully bring that to each and every session. Thank you for your time and I hope to work with you.

Sherree Turcott
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida and North Carolina, with additional education in maternal and child health, lactation counseling, and childhood education. I have a special passion for supporting families as they navigate parenting, fertility challenges, adoption or fostering, pregnancy, and postpartum experiences. I believe you are the expert of your own story, and within you are many strengths that can help you overcome the challenges you face. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling, happier life, and I am here to empower and support you as you take those first steps toward positive change. My therapeutic approach centers on collaboration, compassion, and empowerment. I specialize in helping parents build healthy, strong connections with their children while learning to manage parenting triggers. I also enjoy working with individuals just beginning their therapy journey—those who are eager to develop new skills, explore personal growth, and embrace change. In addition to my professional life, I am a mother and wife, homeschooling my daughter in the mountains of Western North Carolina. Fun facts about me: I have ADHD, I’m obsessed with true crime, I love the feeling of sticking my bare hands into beehives, and caramel iced lattes are my go-to source of energy! I look forward to walking alongside you on your journey toward healing and self-discovery.

Gina Mumey
I am a therapist that is comfortable working with adults along the age continuum. I have experience working with people that are just trying to cope with an unexpected event to those struggling with Severe and Persistent Mental Illness. I believe that everyone, no matter what the reason they ask for help, deserves to have the best possible experience for them. It may be that you need someone to listen or be a sounding board while you figure things out, or you may want someone to work with you to chart a path to recovery. I can be both and everything in between. I prefer you tell me what your goal is and then together we come up with a plan to get you there. I have spent much of my time working with older adults as I have a Gerontology degree with special training for Advanced Behaviors and Cognitive Care so that I am better equipped to work with those with a dementia diagnosis and their loved ones. I have also spent much time leading grief support groups and assisting those facing a loss, either through death or otherwise. I believe in using a strengths-based approach as everyone that I meet has 100% success rate for getting through the tough times to date. I applaud that resiliency and help focus on healthier coping skills going forward. Sometimes the tools that we use to get through the tough times are not ones we want to keep, such as smoking, drinking or over eating. We can work to replace those with healthier options. It is not easy to reach out for help and I promise that I will always listen. We will work on a plan together to reach the goals that you set for yourself and your life. Whether it be anxiety or depression, feeling overwhelmed or experiencing a loss, I believe in providing you with my undivided attention so that I can better understand what you are experiencing and what you are seeking. I look forward to working with you and helping you look forward to a more rewarding and fulfilling life.

Dana O'Neill
My guess is you hate the person in the mirror because they are so different from what you pictured for yourself by now. You don't know how anyone else could love you because you can't even stand yourself. Are you lost in life and searching for purpose? Maybe you've lost that initial spark in your relationship and are desperately trying to get that feeling back. Or stuck in a rut at your job and just want to quit. You overthink everything and somehow you accomplish nothing. Life has got you overwhelmed, exhausted, unmotivated, hopeless and wondering why you even get out of bed in the morning. Are you getting in your own way? Imagine one day you wake up motivated for your dream job, you actually smile back at the person in the mirror, you are surrounded by people who light your fire all day, and you get excited for the life you created after work. That's what it feels like when you have developed self-worth. It takes a brave soul to get in touch with one's vulberabilities, but if you do that you will better understand what you truly need and how to effectively get it. The first step is learning to love and take better care of yourself. It's time to put you first! I have worked in a range of settings (community, residential, private practice) for the last 6 years. I have intensive training in Dialectical Behavior Therapy which helps clients better regulate their emotions and work well with others. My specialty is working on mindfulness and mind/body connection because I believe that when we take some time to listen to our bodies, we find the ability to better take care of ourselves and truly understand what we need. I believe in the importance of self-care and self-love which will ultimately attract the life you want and help improve relationships with others. When we allow ourselves to embrace our vulnerabilities, we can come out on top as stronger, more confident individuals and accomplish our goals. My strongest specialties include helping clients improve self-esteem, understanding the weight loss journey, anxiety management, identity issues, and relationship issues. I can help you because I was that person above once. I've done the transformation myself and have the DBT and mindfulness skills that will teach you how to love yourself, work well with others, handle your emotions, and attract the life you want. Together we will discover ways to be more comfortable being you and better able to navigate the stressors surrounding you.

Hello and welcome to BetterHelp. My name is Nancilee Korth and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Colorado. Over the twenty plus years that I have been a mental health therapist, I have worked with individuals and groups needing help with anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma, PTSD, substance abuse and relationship issues, LGBT issues, self-esteem, self-care, and communication. The therapeutic models I use in my work are a strength based focus, acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and client-centered therapy. A major part of the work that we will do together is learning to live our best valued life, building psychological flexibility to handle the challenges that this life sets before us. The most important gift any of us can have is the security of knowing that we have the tools that we need to deal with whatever challenges this life hands us. I am excited to be a part of this therapeutic journey with you. I will be available through messaging, email, live chat or phone and look forward to meeting and working with you.
