Hope Weiss
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I AM CURRENTLY NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS. Have you been through a major life change? It could be a death, a loss, or another huge life event. You’re re-evaluating your priorities. You’re starting to think about what really matters in your life. You may want to find your voice and make choices that are in line with your authentic self. It can be hard to walk this new road alone. You don’t have to! I can support you with life direction (bringing in more joy and meaning), grief and loss, life transitions, and women's counseling for empowerment (create boundaries, reduce stress, increase self-esteem, find your voice and develop more self-compassion and self-care). Together, we’ll work to access your strengths and create a life filled with joy and purpose.

Ornella Dickson
Registered Psychotherapist, MSW, MPA, RCSWI
I help clients truly heal from life or marital crisis, overwhelming sadness, generational trauma, panic attacks, self-defeating thoughts, intimacy issues, anxiety, stress, anger and grief. My expertise is in emotional release therapy and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, clinically supporting and empowering you to finally release the painful emotions and agonizing thoughts that has been consuming your peace. You will begin to love yourself, “Feel Understood”, and adopt the skills to support healthy relationships, restoring you to a healthier sense of self. My style is evidence-based, down-to-earth, client centered and solution-focused with a mixed treatment approach.
For couples, I am passionate about helping you resolve the power struggle “to be heard” that happens in relationships, helping you see that the past can influence how you both show up to each other. We build mutual understanding, conflict resolution and communication skills, and address the areas causing disunity, sometimes that means generational trauma.
I am registered with the Board of Clinical Social Work, Marriage & Family Therapy and Mental Health Counseling, certified in Crisis Prevention Interventions (CPI), specializing in Crisis Stabilization, Marital-Crisis Intervention, Trauma Recovery (TRM), Grief, Substance Abuse, Diagnosis Navigation, Stress, Emotional Disturbances, Body Image and Life Crisis, working in Mental Health for 8 years, and in intensive outpatient and in-patient crisis stabilization since 2021.
