Dr. Christina Taylor
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCMH, PhD
I am a licensed psychotherapist serving adult and teen clients alike in Delaware and surrounding the states of Pennsylvania and Maryland. My specialties center around adolescent and teen therapy, in addition to areas of focus including but not limited to anxiety, depression, and gender identity. With guidance, clients gain the ability and courage to take the steps needed to reach their goals.
As we experience difficult times in our lives, it is easy to feel alone and like others cannot understand. I seek to be a source of support during times of hardship, while also celebrating life's little joys and accomplishments with my clients. I look forward to walking with you through your journey.

Jess Williams
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSS, LCSW
When you're living your life just a little bit differently from other people, it can feel like the world just wasn't made for you - and it sucks. Whether it's how or who you love, how your brain works, the way you seem to worry about absolutely everything, or the decisions you make about what your life to look like, it can feel super isolating and discouraging to not feel seen and understood by those around you. When I work with clients, that is my main goal - to help them feel seen, understood, and accepted for who they are. Sure, we will work on your anxiety, I'll give you new techniques to try and different ways to think about the world around you, and we'll explore practical advice for things like workplace stress, relationship issues, and family drama, but I also want to help you like YOU more than you ever have before. It might sound cliche (in fact, I know it does), but developing the ability to back yourself, accept your emotions without judgement, and make decisions that feel truly right to you can make all the difference in the world.
Starting therapy can be anxiety-provoking at times, which is why I offer free consultations to all prospective clients. You can book a free 20 minute phone call directly on my website, and I'll reach out to you right away to confirm. We can chat about what you're looking for support with AND make sure everything feels like a good fit before scheduling an intake. I can't wait to connect with you!

Dr. Debra Laino Sexuaity and Relationship Consultation of Delaware, LLC
Therapist, DHS, M.S., M.ED, ASE
My practice is about the whole person. Holistic sex therapy is really understanding the biology, psychology, emotional, sexual, relational and social impacts on a person. Over 20 years of experience has lead me to explore many aspects of human beings and their sexual and relationship needs. Sex and Relationship therapy is a critical need to sustain a healthy relationship and a healthy sex life long term. I'm well known for getting straight to the point and take a solution focused and reality therapy approach to therapy.

Pattie Vargas
Counselor/Therapist, CBC®️Certified Provider, Kessler Certified Grief Educator
After facing the heart-wrenching challenges of having two of my three children struggle with Substance Use Disorder, my world was further shaken when my son, Joel, lost his decades-long battle with the disease in 2017. In the wake of this profound loss, I was determined to better understand the family experience of addiction, and have since used this lived experience to support and guide others who are navigating the isolating and stigmatizing road of addiction and loss.
As a Compassionate Bereavement Care®️ Certified Provider and Kessler Certified Grief Educator, I work with individuals, families, and communities impacted by loss. I am a Peer Parent Coach with the Partnership to End Addiction, and co-facilitate their online grief support community, and is the host of Finding Hope After Loss, Grief Support groups for The Happier Life Project. As an advocate for recovery policies, I am a California State Organizer with the Recovery Advocacy Project, serve on the RCO/RCC Advisory Committee, and was named the 2022 Architect of Recovery by CCAPP (CA Consortium of Addiction Professionals.) My book, Secrets, Scars and Heart Shaped Jars, shares my family’s journey through addiction, loss and recovery.
