Daniel Lazar
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, MA, MBA
Anger is tough to manage on your own. It shows up unannounced, can quickly become aggression and rage, and alienates the people we care about most. But it doesn't have to be that way. I will work with you to change your relationship with anger. You'll explore the roots of your anger, build the skills to manage it, and learn strategies for repairing relationships. By the end, you'll have mastered the tools to keep your progress going. It's hard work, and I stand with you, shoulder-to-shoulder, ever step of the way.

Timothy Walker
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Where within you does conflict persist?
Is it in the body, a swirling energy the surges without explanation, keeping you spinning in thought circles and struggling to sleep or relax (ANXIETY)?
Is it in the heart, the whistling emptiness of grief, or the stabbing pain of ruptured relationships, and lost connections (DEPRESSION)?
Is it in the head, thoughts that won’t stop reciting their well worn verses of what-ifs and should-haves (OCD/ADHD)?
Is it in the spirit, an anguish of being, the unknown outnumbering the known to a paralyzing degree, questions of WHY swirling intangible as mist, existential questions, the ground beneath our feet uneven and unsteady (BELIEF/MEANING)?
Is it in all of the above, and in your dreams as well, impacting ability to connect with others, to be still with yourself, to be intimate, to give and receive love, to accept what was, embrace what will be, and surrender to the now (TRAUMA)?

Stephanie Morfitt, LCSW More Fit Mental Health
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Life is hard to navigate. If communicating with others is difficult, if you constantly feel nervous, are grieving, or having family and relationship problems, I am here for you.
I have a passion for working with women weighed down by anxiety, self-doubt, or overwhelm. You may struggle finding balance in your life, feeling at peace with who you are, or expressing your needs in relationships.
Do you feel stuck in patterns of overthinking, people-pleasing, or avoiding difficult emotions? I will help you develop a personalized set of tools to ease the emotional distress that weighs you down, more importantly, you will feel confident, capable, & secure in your relationships & daily life.
I BELIEVE:
We all carry contradictions. It’s okay to have mixed feelings— life is complex.
Relationships are worth nurturing. With the right tools, we can communicate with more kindness and hear each other with more love.
You deserve the freedom to make your own choices—and to honor what’s right for you.
Bringing a balance of heart and humor to the therapy space helps clients find healing, resilience, and joy—one small moment at a time.
Call me for a free 20-minute consultation to see what it’s like to work together. During our call, you’ll get a genuine feel for my therapy style, ask questions about the process, and explore what real progress could look like for you. Whether you’re new to therapy or looking for a different approach, this is a warm, no-pressure space to connect and find out if we’re the right fit.
