Journey to Healing Counseling Associates, LLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
What makes my practice truly special is the deep sense of purpose and care I bring to every therapeutic relationship. I don't believe in one-size-fits-all therapy. Each client who walks through my (virtual) door is met with respect, compassion, and a genuine desire to understand their unique story. My practice is rooted in the belief that healing happens not just through techniques, but through connection, safety, and trust.
I specialize in working with adults navigating trauma, PTSD, CPTSD, depression, anxiety, and other complex emotional challenges. These experiences often leave people feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck—but I’m here to help you find your way back to yourself. My approach is trauma-informed and client-centered, meaning that your voice, your pace, and your goals guide the work we do together.

Shira Collings
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
I’m a licensed therapist who believes healing happens through connection, compassion, and honoring each person’s unique story. I specialize in reproductive mental health, including experiences of abortion, pregnancy loss, infertility, parenthood, and choosing to be childfree. My approach is feminist, relational, and deeply affirming of queer, neurodivergent, and diverse family experiences. Together, we create a safe space where you can explore your feelings, reclaim your voice, and build resilience at your own pace. I’m here to support you with empathy, respect, and a commitment to your whole well-being.

Summer Hecht
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, DSW, LCSW-C
Hi there! I'm so glad you're here.
I am a doctoral-level social worker who has been practicing for over twelve years. I believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship, and I'm a great fit for anyone who has ever left a therapy session disappointed because they were hoping for something that felt more authentic or for a space that allowed you to feel safe to be your entire self.
I provide couples, individual, and family therapy, as well as parent coaching. With couples, I am trained in Emotionally-Focused Therapy and Gottman Therapy. I believe that focusing on connection, relationship strengths that already exist, and respect make couples therapy the most successful. For families, similarly, building mutual respect and communication can improve overall functioning and restore peace. For parents, I focus on creating secure attachment, consistently enforcing realistic boundaries, and mutual respect. I support individuals in identifying personal values and recognizing unhelpful patterns so that a plan for moving forward meaningfully can be made.
I'm a perfect fit for you if you're feeling burnt out, overwhelmed, lonely, or unfulfilled. I support moms who have experienced birth trauma, NICU stays, infertility, postpartum depression and anxiety, or who are simply not adjusting to motherhood like they thought they would. I support parents who have multiples, who know they want to break generational patterns but aren't sure how, and who want to gentle parent effectively (not permissively). I work with individuals with ADHD (formally diagnosed or self-diagnosed), especially women with ADHD who may not have been diagnosed until adulthood due to compensating with overfunctioning and perfectionism. I work with individuals recovering from emotionally immature parents and with couples who are struggling to connect despite loving each other.
If any of this resonates you, I am accepting new clients and look forward to chatting with you to see if we might be a good fit! I know how overwhelming it can be to find a therapist who will be supportive, gently challenge you, and show up authentically and empathetically. I am that therapist and I can't wait to get started on helping you achieve your goals.
