Molly Toomey
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I've worked closely with individuals with bipolar disorder, including young adults and transition-age youth, and have personal experience with it as well. I support bipolar folks around de-shaming and de-stigmatizing—including identifying the correct diagnosis or accepting an existing diagnosis, exploring what it means for your identity, dealing with its impact on your relationships or work/school, managing symptoms, and learning to navigate the inevitable highs and lows of the disorder so that you can live fully and confidently with bipolar.

Rizaldy R Ferrer
Psychologist, PHD
I approach therapy from the belief that emotional difficulties such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, grief, and other psychological concerns are best understood not only by their symptoms, but by how we respond to pain, uncertainty, expectations, and change. My work often focuses on helping clients recognize unhelpful patterns, become less governed by comparison or rigid thinking, tolerate discomfort more effectively, and identify small but meaningful shifts that can change the direction of their lives. Rather than viewing people as simply “right or wrong” or “well or unwell,” I try to understand what is happening, how it developed, and what may help someone move forward with greater awareness, flexibility, and intention.
