Libby Shaw
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, ATR-BC, LPAT, ACS
Whether this is your first time in therapy or you're returning to continue the work you started, something brought you to this search today. Starting therapy can feel intimidating, even if it isn't your first time. I believe that the foundation of counseling is the therapeutic relationship created between the therapist and client: we are creating a team, and that requires trust, transparency, and feeling safe. It will be my goal to meet you where you're at and work at your pace, while also pushing you to meet the goals you outline for your treatment. I understand that whatever has brought you here is deeply personal and sensitive, and I vow to treat our counseling space with honor and respect. Feel free to reach out to me through email or phone call and we can set up a time to have a free consultation to see if we would be a good match to work together.

Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counselor, MS, CMHC, CLC
Life can feel so heavy when anxiety won’t let your mind rest, when fear wakes you at night, or when stress and self-doubt erode your confidence and faith. When burnout creeps in and relationships begin to crack, holding it all together can start to feel overwhelming.
At Rising Calm Center, we understand that weight. Our Christian counselors help young professionals, couples, and families find calm, rebuild trust, and walk in the peace Jesus promised—rather than performing under the pressures this world demands.
We integrate faith-based wisdom with evidence-based care, drawing from CBT, DBT, IFS, ACT, Gottman, EFT, Narrative Therapy, trauma-informed work, tapping, and breathwork. This combination helps you retrain your nervous system, heal emotional and spiritual wounds, and live with genuine peace.
Clients often come to us struggling with anxiety, insomnia, panic attacks, grief, burnout, relationship conflict, or a sense of spiritual disconnection. Here, you’ll find compassion, honesty, and practical tools to feel safe in your body and centered in your spirit again.
What we offer:
• Free consultations for new clients — relief can start now
• Same-week availability, including evenings (Mon–Thu until 8 p.m.)
• Sliding-scale rates for affordable care
• In-person, telehealth, or phone sessions
You don’t have to face the storm alone. There is calm on the other side—and together, we can find it.

Natalie Conboy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I have learned from my patients that it is crucial to create a safe space for folks to share their most difficult thoughts and feelings. It is in this space that I help my clients learn to feel what they are feeling in a way that promotes growth and healing. So often we avoid our feelings as a way to cope with them. I encourage my clients develop the skills needed to address difficult emotions in a new, healthy way. Often times patients experience growth and healing as a result of learning how to properly navigate difficult emotions.

Terri DiMatteo
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Professional Counselor
I'm Terri DiMatteo, a Licensed Professional Counselor based in New Jersey, and for more than a decade I've been helping individuals and couples navigate the most painful and disorienting chapters of their relationships. The people who find their way to my practice are often in one of three places.
Some are surviving betrayal. The affair has been discovered — or confessed — and now every assumption about the relationship, the future, and even the past feels uncertain. The grief is enormous. The questions are relentless. And the idea of trusting again feels almost impossible to imagine. These clients come to me exhausted, heartbroken, and quietly hoping that what they had can somehow be rebuilt.
Others are living with a love that has gone quiet. There's no dramatic crisis — just a slow, creeping distance that has turned a once-close partnership into something that feels more like a business arrangement. They still care about each other. They may even love each other. But they can't remember the last time they felt truly seen, desired, or emotionally safe with the person they chose. They come to me wondering whether what they have can be restored — or whether they've simply waited too long.
And some are in the process of naming something they've suspected for a long time: that the relationship they're in isn't just difficult — it's harmful. They're untangling themselves from a partner, parent, or family member whose behavior has left them questioning their own perception, their own worth, and their own reality. They come to me disoriented, depleted, and ready — finally — to start finding their way back to themselves.
If you recognized yourself in any of those descriptions, I want you to know something important: you are not overreacting, and you are not alone.
