Creative Now Therapy, Cris Maria Fort Garcés
Registered Psychotherapist, LCAT, ATR-BC, Gestalt Psychotherapy Certified, Developmental Somatic Psychotherapy Certified, Hakomi Somatic Practitioner
You are not too sensitive. You are not failing at healing. Your body has just been running an old survival program for a long time, and it’s tired. I work with sensitive women and queer adults who are done performing “fine” while quietly falling apart.

Karen Bisignano
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
After trauma, healing begins with understanding your experience. Trauma isn't just the event; it's the inability to make sense of what happened, often leaving you stuck in repetitive, unhealthy relationships. Whether or not you recognize childhood abuse or neglect, its effects show up subtly. You found a way to survive an absent, rigid, or abusive dynamic, but everyday life can still trigger those old wounds. You might feel a loss of control, carry deep self-doubt, or constantly put others first to your own detriment. If you are wondering how to help yourself and take the next step, you do not have to navigate this alone.
It takes immense courage to seek therapy when carrying trauma or pain. You do not have to carry it alone anymore. In our sessions—using EMDR with other modalities, we will work as a collaborative team at a pace that feels entirely safe for you. You are always the driver here. Together, we will build the lasting tools you need to reclaim your life.
I know how scary reaching out is—I've been in your shoes. Years ago, navigating trauma, divorce, and family hardships, I resisted restarting therapy. But taking that leap helped me rebuild an empowered version of myself. You deserve to feel lighter and in control again, too. Contact me today and lets see if we're a good fit.

Throughout my career, I have specialized in areas including anxiety, depression, PTSD, personality disorders, relationship challenges, and life transitions, among others. I utilize evidence-based, trauma-informed approaches to help clients process past experiences, build coping skills, and achieve meaningful and sustainable change. I also provide support for complex issues such as abuse recovery, grief, parenting challenges, and navigating identity and relational dynamics.
I am passionate about helping clients cultivate resilience, self-awareness, and emotional well-being. My goal is to empower individuals to move beyond patterns that limit their growth, restore connection in their relationships, and develop the tools to thrive in their personal and professional lives. I approach each client with empathy, professionalism, and a focus on individualized care tailored to their unique journey.

Day by Day Psychotherapy LCSW PLLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, primarily working with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions. I provide a warm, holistic, and trauma informed approach, meeting you where you are and supporting clients at their own pace. I aim to create a nonjudgmental space where you feel comfortable exploring your thoughts and experiences. Clients often find it easier than expected to open up, with a strong focus on connection and trust early in the process. My work is shaped by both clinical training and lived experience. Outside of my practice, I enjoy traveling with my spouse, being in nature, spending time with my cats, and live music (or rocking out to Nine Inch Nails).
