Narrative Therapy
Elizabeth Starnes
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, ATR-BC®, REAT
Reaching out for support often means something in your life feels too heavy to carry alone. You don’t have to navigate it by yourself. I offer a space that moves at your pace—without pressure or expectations—where you can begin to make sense of what you’re carrying.
I work with individuals navigating trauma and PTSD, anxiety, grief, and life transitions. Together, we gently explore patterns shaped by past experiences and how they continue to show up in your thoughts, relationships, and sense of self. This work isn’t about forcing change—it’s about creating space for clarity, self-understanding, and a deeper sense of trust in yourself.
My approach integrates talk therapy with expressive arts therapy, grounded in specialized training in art therapy and intermodal expressive work. This means we actively use modalities such as visual journaling, storytelling, movement, and other forms of creative expression as part of the therapeutic process—not just talking about your experiences, but engaging with them in ways that support deeper understanding and change.
Clients often describe me as steady, down-to-earth, and genuine. I value creating a space where you feel safe, seen, and able to show up as you are.

Narrative Therapy
Shawna Damiani
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Hi, I'm Shawna. I'm really glad you're here — and I know that finding the right therapist can feel like a lot. My hope is that by the time you finish reading this, you'll have a sense of who I am and whether we might be a good fit.
I work with adults who are carrying things that feel heavy — whether that's the weight of past trauma, the complexity of relationships that keep hitting the same walls, or the experience of moving through a world that wasn't quite designed for the way your brain works. I specialize in trauma and PTSD, relationship challenges, and supporting adults with ADHD and autism who are often figuring out a lot about themselves for the first time.
A lot of my clients come to me feeling like something is wrong with them. My job — and honestly, my passion — is helping people see that they've been responding to hard things in the most human ways possible. Healing isn't about fixing yourself. It's about understanding yourself.
My approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. I'm not going to sit silently and nod — I show up as a real person in the room with you. Therapy with me tends to feel like an honest, sometimes even humorous conversation, grounded in real tools and genuine care.
If any of this resonates, I'd love to hear from you. Reaching out is the hardest part — and you've already started.

Narrative Therapy
Courtney Loyola
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Becoming — Not Broken.
You've found yourself researching 'Am I a narcissist?' in the middle of the night, you have constant questions as to 'How did I get here?' and 'Why do these things keep happening to me?' You've lost someone very close to you and now you are spinning out and can't seem to find your feet. You keep repeating patterns that bring the same people into your life and leave you in pieces after they've left. You're ready to change, you just don't know how or where to start.
I believe healing is not about fixing what’s wrong with you, but uncovering the strength and resilience that have always been there. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by complex trauma, narcissistic abuse, or deep grief. Together, we create a safe, grounded space where painful experiences can be processed and integrated — not avoided. Our work is centered on helping you reconnect with your voice, your clarity, and your capacity for secure relationships.

Narrative Therapy
Lisa Treleaven
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
My therapy practice is a place of hope and rest for anyone affected by chronic illness, medical complexity, or other unique needs. As a parent of a medically complex child and a person with my own chronic conditions, I often see people become weary when navigating the medically complex journey. They face many emotions, from fear to sadness to relief, and find that others around them don't understand what they are going through. Before they come to see me, my clients wonder if they can simply continue alone, despite their sense that it is becoming too difficult. I want fellow travelers to know: you deserve to find peace even in the midst of difficulty. You deserve to define and redefine who you are. You don't have to continue alone. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation to see how I may be able to help- whether therapy with me is a good fit or if I can connect you with other helpful resources.
