Johanna Wood, Leap Counseling and Consultation
Psychologist, PhD, LP
I specialize in exposure-based therapies for OCD and anxiety disorders. My clients typically have tried therapy before, but have not seen much improvement. They continue living in fear, anxiety, and guilt, as their lives continue getting smaller and smaller. This is because OCD and most anxiety disorders require specialized treatment. Coping skills are great, but they can only get you so far. The good news is, there are science-backed treatments for OCD and for anxiety that actually work. If you're ready to stop coping and start living, take a leap of faith and reach out.
My style is structured and balances use of the latest science with compassion and understanding. My goal is to make you feel heard, and feel challenged. I serve adults with primary issues of OCD and anxiety, but I also address co-occurring depression, body-focused repetitive behaviors, and trauma, using cognitive-behavioral therapies.

Rick Brodsky
Psychologist, PsyD, MA
As a therapist, my approach is to create a supportive and empathetic environment that helps you feel comfortable engaging in the therapy process. By forming a genuine and trusting therapeutic relationship we can work together and strive for the outcomes you seek. To be truly effective, I believe it is essential that we work collaboratively to set priorities and develop strategies that are meaningful and aligned with your values. Several approaches can be implemented from my training and broad professional experience including psychodynamic relational approaches, Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), Mindfulness, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).

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.

Telemedicine (video-based) allows for online counseling and services from the convenience of your home, office, or hotel (as long as it is in a state where we are licensed).
This method of care can help you feel at ease in settings better matched to your personality, schedule, and lifestyle. We have provided online therapy options since 2017 - before the pandemic enabled it as a mainstream service - and are therefore well-versed in both helping you feel comfortable and see desired results through this digital session option.
Telemedicine is a great option for the following reasons:
* You want a specialized expert
* It is convenient for your schedule and lifestyle
* You or your child suddenly feel sick so now you can’t make it to your in-office appointment
* You live in a rural community with limited access to mental health providers
* You want to maintain your regular session schedule when traveling
We can talk through online video calls (accessible from laptops, phones, or tablets) to work on your goals from nearly anywhere!

Beth Janis
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Life can be full of difficult moments, unexpected transitions, and painful relationships. They may leave you feeling overwhelmed, discouraged, or as though you’ve lost who you are. You may be finding yourself resorting back to old patterns during times of stress, even if those patterns no longer serve you well. Although you may be feeling stuck, you’re sure that you want things to change. Together, we can walk through your experiences side by side. You deserve a space in which you feel heard and supported, and where we can work towards gaining a deeper understanding of yourself, your experiences, and your relationships.
Clients come to me seeking a therapist who is warm, understanding, and accepting. I always strive to meet you where you are - to follow your pace, to assist you in identifying and navigating the places you feel stuck, and to collaborate with you on moving toward the goals that are important to you.
As a licensed clinical psychologist with extensive experience supporting children, adolescents, and adults, I tailor my approach to fit your current needs, as well as your unique strengths and concerns. You don't have to keep going through this alone. Contact me for a free 15-minute consultation to determine if we could be a good fit.
