Empathetic Connections
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
At Empathetic Connections, we believe that meaningful change begins with feeling seen, heard, and understood. We provide a warm, supportive space for children, adolescents, young adults, and adults to explore life’s challenges, whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, stress, relationship concerns, or major life transitions.
Our approach is collaborative and tailored to each individual. Drawing from evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Reality Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), we help clients build practical skills, gain insight, and move toward lasting growth.
We are committed to meeting you where you are, honoring your unique experiences, and empowering you to create meaningful, sustainable change in your life.

Dr. L A McCrae
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCADC, FOT, CCTP, CCTSA
"Not everything that is faced can be changed. But nothing can be changed until it is faced." - James Baldwin
As a Black, queer, transmasculine, and neurodivergent scholar-practitioner, I view therapy as an act of radical liberation rather than social compliance. Grounded in the Black radical tradition, I partner with "Deep-Sea Divers"—scholars, activists, and survivors—to move beyond traditional talk therapy and into the realm of spiritual reclamation. My approach is direct and somatic, utilizing Sandplay, Somatic Focusing, and Bibliotherapy to map your internal geography and dismantle the "head trash" of carceral systems. Whether navigating neurodivergence, TBI recovery, or the cycles of dependency, we work collaboratively to honor your lived experience without moralistic shame. I do not sit as a detached observer, but as a witness to your evolution and a partner in your resistance against a broken world. My goal is your absolute autonomy, facilitating the heavy, holy work of unmasking and rewriting your testimony. If you are seeking a sanctuary where your identity is celebrated and your liberation is the priority, I am ready to dive with you.

Imara Counseling Services, LLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LCSW-C, LGPC, LMSW
People truly begin to heal the moment they feel heard and understood. We are committed to providing all individuals the compassion, unconditional support, and helpful insight through the counseling process. In this space, you have the freedom to safely express your feelings, thoughts, experiences, life stresses, and desires. As the therapy deepens, we have found the therapeutic relationship grows and individuals will begin to find relief from emotional distress, improve personal relationships, develop insight into observed behavioral patterns and symptoms, and address the concerns that initially brought them to see us.
We would love the chance to work alongside you. So if you need help, we are here to help.

Alan Jacobson, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, Nationally Registered Health Service Provider
I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years of experience working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families to create meaningful, measurable change in how they feel, function, and relate to others. My approach is evidence-based, empathic, and solution-focused, with therapy centered on helping you achieve clear goals so that progress is noticeable in daily life. I work with a wide range of concerns—including anxiety, low mood, loss, self-doubt, and life transitions—and have particular expertise in performance psychology, public speaking anxiety, panic attacks, fear of flying, and questions of purpose or meaning. If you’re unsure whether therapy is the right next step, I also offer a one-time consultation assessment to help clarify what may be contributing to your current stress and identify effective pathways forward, whether through therapy or other strategies.
