Inspired Hope Therapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Hello, and thank you for visiting my profile.
"People can cry much easier than they can change." — James Baldwin
Life can be challenging, and sometimes the weight of anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, parenting struggles, family conflict, trauma, or major life transitions can leave you feeling overwhelmed and uncertain about what comes next. Taking the first step toward therapy is not always easy, but you do not have to navigate these challenges alone.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Parent Coach, educator, and mother of four with more than 20 years of experience helping children, teens, adults, couples, and families build healthier, more fulfilling lives. My areas of focus include anxiety, depression, parenting support, adolescent issues, self-esteem, trauma, family relationships, and life transitions. I often joke that I speak fluent teen, but my true passion is helping people strengthen their relationships, improve communication, and develop the confidence needed to overcome life's challenges.
I believe that you are the expert on your own life. My role is to provide guidance, support, and practical tools while helping you uncover the strengths that already exist within you. Together, we will create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore concerns, build resilience, develop healthy coping skills, and create meaningful change.
My therapeutic approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to your individual needs. Whether you are seeking therapy for yourself, your child, your relationship, or your family, I am committed to helping you achieve your goals and develop the skills needed to thrive both now and in the future.
I provide in-person therapy in Montclair, New Jersey, as well as secure online therapy throughout New Jersey and Florida.
I offer a complimentary consultation and would welcome the opportunity to discuss how we can work together.

Sarah Farris
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, LPC
I am trained in evidence-based practices for the treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), anxiety, panic and phobias, trichotillomania and skin picking (BFRBs), and athlete mental health. I offer a client-focused, non-judgmental environment where you can address feelings of uncertainty, learn and implement new skills, and make meaningful changes in your life. Together, we will examine the challenges you are facing, set clear goals, and develop a plan to minimize the impact of stress and anxiety on your daily functioning. Building trust is fundamental to the therapeutic relationship, and I strive to meet individuals where they are at the start of therapy. My approach is goal-oriented, supportive, and collaborative.

Layla Ashley Psychotherapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Relationships can bring our deepest joy, but they can also surface painful patterns. If you and your partner find yourselves caught in the same arguments, struggling to truly hear one another, or feeling emotionally distant, you’re not alone. Many couples reach a point where communication breaks down and the connection they once felt begins to feel strained or uncertain. Sometimes earlier life experiences, family patterns, or stressors quietly shape the way we relate, making it harder to stay close even when the love is still there.
With more than two decades of experience working with couples, I help partners slow down the cycle of conflict and understand what’s really happening beneath the surface. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in relational and attachment-based work. I support couples in developing healthier communication, repairing emotional wounds, and building a stronger foundation of trust and intimacy. I’m also particularly attuned to the needs of highly sensitive people and those who want a thoughtful, depth-oriented approach to relationship growth.
Whether you’re preparing for a deeper commitment, working to repair trust after a rupture, or trying to rediscover connection after years together, therapy can offer a meaningful path forward. I also support individuals navigating dating, heartbreak, or relationship transitions. Together we’ll work toward clearer communication, emotional safety, and a relationship that feels more conscious, supportive, and alive.
If you’d like to explore whether this work might be a good fit, feel free to reach out to schedule a complimentary consultation.

Rebecca Phillips, MS, LPC, CCTP, EMDR Therapist in Frisco Texas
Licensed Professional Counselor, Master of Science, LPC, EMDR Therapist, CCTP: Complex Trauma
Love should not hurt. If you find yourself worried, anxious, or overwhelmed in your relationships, I can help. Do you lay in bed at night with racing thoughts, wondering what you seem to keep getting wrong or worrying about whether your partner will leave you? Do you worry that you’re not enough or that you’re sometimes too much? Do you live in fear of rejection or abandonment? You may have an anxious attachment style or even complex trauma (issues from your past that present in your current relationships). If love hurts, I can help.

I specialize in helping adults who struggle with self-confidence, worry (anxiety), and trauma (usually from stressful childhoods or past relationships) find clarity, calmness, and confidence. When my clients come to see me, they're often distressed in their relationships. They're smart, kind, and successful. But they're often self-sabotaging, and they don't even realize it. In our work together, my clients learn how to show up in their lives in a way that fosters fulfillment. You can have that, too. Imagine your potential when you understand and manage what's holding you back. You can have happy, healthy relationships when you're the best version of yourself. You can do this! I can help.
