Lisa Taylor-Austin
Licensed Professional Counselor, NCC, LPC, LMHC, CFMHE, CFBA, LCPC, LCMHC
We all experience periods in our lives—whether moments, days, or even years—when additional support can be helpful. My approach is collaborative, and I work closely with clients to develop individualized treatment plans that align with their goals and support meaningful progress. I am Board Certified in Counseling and Forensics, and I integrate evidence-based approaches including EMDR, CBT, and traditional talk therapy to help clients move toward the changes they want to see in their lives. I am fully licensed to practice in Connecticut, Colorado, Florida, Maine, New York, Rhode Island, and Vermont.

Christina Duncan
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
What makes my therapy practice stand out is my commitment to truly meeting each client where they are, with authenticity, compassion, and respect for their unique experiences. I take a neurodiversity-affirming, strengths-based approach that focuses not on “fixing” clients, but on understanding and empowering them. I prioritize building a genuine, trusting relationship, creating a space where clients feel safe to be themselves without judgment. By blending evidence-based strategies with flexibility and warmth, I help clients develop practical tools while also fostering self-acceptance, confidence, and meaningful personal growth.

Live Laugh and Love Therapy| Jessica Munson
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC-D,CCATP, CAMAS-II, CCTP
Hi there and welcome to your journey into therapy. I am Jessica and have been in this field for almost 18 years in a variety of settings. I have experience working in a clinic , emergency room, hospital, schools, family court, jails, and in private practice. I have provided individual therapy from adolescence through late adulthood for a variety of issues. I believe therapy should be a personal journey for each patient . We collaborate side by side to develop a treatment plan that helps you achieve your goals. Healing is possible even though we may not believe that in the beginning. I believe that true healing begins by looking at the root of where a problem comes from and seeing how that problem affects our present lives. We begin making connections and building insight so that we can work together to recover and heal each broken pathway. Your journey can start here if you wish. Please reach out when you are ready.

Jazmin Melendez
Pre-Licensed Professional, LMSW
I believe every person deserves to feel seen, heard, and respected for who they are and the experiences that have shaped them. As someone who identifies as queer and is part of the LGBTQ+ community, I understand the importance of having spaces where you can show up as your full self without judgment or the need to explain who you are. I value culturally responsive, LGBTQ+ affirming, and identity-affirming care, and recognize that culture, family, identity, and lived experience are important parts of each person’s story. I approach therapy with curiosity, compassion, honesty, and humanity, while honoring both the challenges you’re carrying and the strengths that have helped you navigate them. I also believe there should be room for humor and genuine connection in therapy. My hope is that our work helps you feel more understood, connected to yourself, and empowered to move forward in a way that feels authentic to you.
I work with children, teens, adults, and couples navigating anxiety, trauma, depression, grief, relationships, identity, stress, neurodivergence, and life transitions. You may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or unsure of what comes next. My goal is to create a space where you can be honest about what’s happening, feel understood, and work together toward greater clarity, confidence, and meaningful change.
