Tiyahna M
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC,LPCMH,NCC,C-DBT
In a world that moves quickly and often demands more than we feel we can give, mental health is not a luxury—it's a necessity. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, or simply feeling stuck, therapy can offer a path forward. I’m glad you’re here.
As a licensed mental health therapist, my goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Everyone’s journey is unique, and so is the way we approach healing. Here’s what I offer in my practice:
1. Individual Therapy
I work one-on-one with adults and adolescents who are looking for support with:
Anxiety and stress management
Depression and mood disorders
Trauma and PTSD
Life transitions and identity issues
Self-esteem and personal growth
Our sessions are client-centered and collaborative. I draw from evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Solution-Focused Therapy, and trauma-informed care, tailoring my approach to what works best for you.
2. Couples & Relationship Counseling
Relationships can be both fulfilling and challenging. I offer therapy for couples seeking to:
Improve communication
Rebuild trust
Navigate conflict
Strengthen emotional connection
Whether you're in a long-term relationship, navigating new dynamics, or working through a separation, I help partners develop healthier patterns and a deeper understanding of each other.
Culturally Sensitive, Inclusive Care
I honor the diversity of every client I work with. My practice is inclusive and affirming of all identities—cultural, racial, sexual, and gender. I strive to create a space where you feel seen, heard, and respected.
Teletherapy Options
I offer secure virtual sessions for clients who prefer or require remote access. Teletherapy is a flexible, convenient option for those with busy schedules, mobility challenges, or who live outside the area.
Why Therapy? Why Now?
You don’t need to be in crisis to start therapy. Sometimes, just having a space to talk, reflect, and grow can make all the difference. Healing isn’t about “fixing” yourself—it’s about understanding yourself better and learning to live more fully and authentically.

Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, MCAP, CCTP
For many, in person counseling is not the most practical for our lives due to our schedule, finances etc. For those reasons and more online counseling might be better for you.

Dina Hijazi
Psychologist, PhD, CSAT
Hi all,
I’m Dr. Dina Hijazi, PhD, CSAT. My clinical work focuses on the holistic treatment of relationships—with both self and others. This includes supporting individuals, couples, and families navigating anxiety, depression, intimacy disorders, trauma, and addiction, always with a focus on emotional, psychological, and social well-being. With over 35 years of experience I'm sure I can help you.
My educational journey includes a Bachelor’s degree in psychology from Purdue University, a Master’s from Notre Dame University, and a Ph.D. from the University of Texas at Austin. Postdoctoral training in family systems therapy and trauma/addiction work was completed under the mentorship of Pia Mellody and Patrick Carnes. I also hold national certifications in Sex Addiction Therapy (CSAT), Multiple Addiction Therapy (CMAT), and training in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing).
Sharing this work with broader audiences has been deeply fulfilling—whether through The Meadows Lecture Series, The Dallas Free Lecture Series, or speaking engagements at universities, conferences, and schools.
I look forward to connecting with you.

Lynette Cisneros
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHC, LMHC
So, you've made it here today, for many this decision of prioritizing oneself may be long overdue. Initiating counseling can be a challenging step to take and selecting an online counselor, who accepts insurance, and is a good fit can feel quite daunting. I know people search for providers and often go through a few before finding one to begin with or begin again with. This journey which may already be stacked with scheduling conflicts and feelings of vulnerability can quickly become overwhelming. I provide online sessions for adults across NC & FL. Reach out, we'll schedule a quick consultation call, words on a screen only go so far.

Two years ago I developed a visual impairment that prevents me fro driving. Thus I had to close my brick and mortar office. However, I find that most people who contact me are pleased to have the convenience of not having to rive to another location and take signidficant time from work or other obligations.

Robin Kaye Stilwell
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., L.M.F.T.
I am exclusively using a video platform to see clients. It began as a temporary measure during Covid 19, but has worked so well that I have completely transitioned to a virtual platform. Although it may seem like it would be uncomfortable, my clients are very appreciative of the flexibility it affords. There are definitely cases in which in person sessions is a better fit and more appropriate.

Dr. Le’ Isaac Gardner Msc.D. CTHT ORDM
Hypnotherapist, Doctorate in Metaphysical Science, MSc.D. Clinical and Transpersonal Hypnotherapist CTHT
As a client of mine, you will reclaim your life by focusing on pulling your issues from the root so that they never occur again. I will walk you back to wholeness and health, leaving things such as the symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, depression, motivation, and family and relationship issues in the past. I also use the wonderful powers of your mind, body, and spirit to enhance your memory, sports performance, optimism, spirituality, ability to focus and more.
I use a number of different modalities of hypnotherapy and metaphysics to bring my clients into a oneness with their desired goal. Eye Movement Therapy, Chakra balance and alignment, energy healing, and regression all come together to make a powerful, transformative treatment for any client.
It's now time to reclaim your life. As an ordained minister, I can say that It is very important to not only address an issue but to most importantly eliminate the cause. Let's begin!
