Nicole Merrigan, LPA, PLLC
Psychologist, MA, LPA
Life can feel incredibly overwhelming or paralyzing when you are constantly battling intense emotions, past trauma, or the daily chaos of ADHD—especially when those struggles overlap. My approach balances deep self-compassion and practical, real-world skills. My practice combines the highest standard of evidence-based therapies with a warm, deeply human approach. Together, we will build a tailored toolkit.

STW Counseling PLLC
Counselor/Therapist, Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor
As someone in long term recovery, I try hard not to tell clients what to do. I believe clients have the answers to their issues and it's my job to help each client get to the answers they are seeking. I do not have a "one size fits all' philosophy and will use whatever therapy seems appropriate based upon the client's needs. I am very person centered which mean that if the client wishes to discuss the weather for an hour we will talk about the weather! I want to work on what the client wants to work on not what I want the client to work on.

Kelli Hall
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I’m a multi-state licensed clinical social worker who is deeply passionate about helping people build healthier, more authentic relationships—starting with the relationship they have with themselves.
In my work, I often support individuals who have spent much of their lives over-accommodating, over-functioning, or feeling responsible for others. Many of my clients come in feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to prioritize their own needs without guilt. They may feel chronically anxious, depressed, or worried.
My style is warm, direct, and grounded. I’m not a “just sit and nod” therapist—I’m actively engaged in helping you understand patterns, shift perspective, and develop practical tools you can use in real life.
I believe you don’t HAVE TO do anything - but you do GET to choose. And learning how to make those choices with clarity and confidence can be incredibly freeing.

Erikka Cole
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D
Finding the right therapist is hard. We want to make it a little easier.
At Creative Resilience, we're a small group of therapists who genuinely care about the people we work with. We offer virtual therapy for teens and adults across New York, New Jersey, North Carolina, and Florida, and we take real care in matching each person to the right fit, because that's where the work actually begins.
Whether you're carrying something heavy, feeling stuck in the same patterns, or just sensing that something needs to change, you deserve support that meets you where you are, not where you "should" be. Our sessions are unhurried, nonjudgmental, and grounded in approaches that actually work.
We're currently accepting new clients. Reach out and we'll get back to you within 24 hours.
