Dr. Monica Dyer
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, DNP, MPH, FNP, PMHNP
As a Psychiatric-Mental Health and Family Nurse Practitioner, my passion is helping people feel seen, supported, and understood during some of the most challenging moments of their lives. I believe that healing happens through connection, honesty, and safe space, and my goal is to offer care that feels grounded, collaborative, and genuinely human. I am so grateful to work with people experiencing depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, substance use disorders, bipolar disorder, psychosis, and many other mental health struggles. I provide both medication management and supportive therapeutic care.
For patients healing from trauma, I also offer Accelerated Resolution Therapy, a gentle approach that helps people move forward without being overwhelmed by their past. My background includes street medicine, community health, and international humanitarian work, all of which have shaped my respect for the resilience and complexity of the human experience.
I strive to understand your story—not just your symptoms—and to partner with you in creating a plan that aligns with your needs, values, and goals. To heal, we need to feel safe, heard, and empowered. You don’t have to navigate this alone. I’m here to walk with you, support you, and help you rediscover hope, strength, and stability on your path forward.

Dr. Jacqueline Bentley
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Growing up is not easy for anyone including children, adolescents, or their parents! The reality is that it can be very hard to be a child or teen. They experience vast changing emotions, however, they are not equipped at their developmental stages to handle or understand feelings and experiences the same way as adults. I would strive to provide a nonjudgmental, safe and comforting environment for your child or adolescent to process through their various degrees of emotions and experiences, and aid them in expressing and making sense of how they are feeling more effectively.

Matthew Jones
Licensed Professional Counselor, MSCC, LPC
Children and adolescent work requires being able to see them as an equal and giving them a voice and some method of control over themselves. They are still developing and far to often have adult ideas and understanding placed on them without them having the skills. I believe in meeting them where they are at.

Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
I use a strength-based approach to support children and adolescents in therapy, by focusing on their inherent strengths, passions and potential rather than solely addressing problems or deficits. My therapeutic approach emphasizes identifying and harnessing each young person’s unique abilities, talents, and resilience in order to foster personal growth and improve problem-solving skills. Understanding the current landscape and challenges faced by youth today—such as academic pressures, social media influences and evolving family dynamics—is crucial for tailoring interventions that are relevant and impactful. I intentionally integrate the child’s or adolescent’s imagination and creativity into therapy as well, in order to create a therapeutic process that is interesting, engaging and ultimately empowering. Working with children and adolescents also requires a multidisciplinary approach which can involve parents, extended family, teachers, school counselors and pediatricans in the process. Parents understand the child’s home environment and family dynamics, teachers have insights into the child’s academic and social performance at school, and pediatricians offer medical, historical and developmental perspectives. Combining these viewpoints provides a more comprehensive understanding of the child’s situation and provides information that guides the therapeutic process and ensures greater treatment efficacy across the child or adolecent's environments.
