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.

Vada Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
At Vada Counseling, all of our therapists are queer and/or trans, and we bring that lived experience into every session. We understand the realities you’re navigating, and you won't have to explain, defend, or translate your identity or experiences. Our work is grounded in liberation, cultural humility, and care that rejects pathologizing frameworks.
We focus on collaborative, transparent therapy where consent, autonomy, and shared power lead the way. Clients come to us when they want support that recognizes trauma, identity, and systemic harm without losing sight of individual strengths and self-determination. If you’re looking for care rooted in decolonizing and anti-carceral values, Vada Counseling offers a space where you can simply be, and be understood.

Dr. Carolina Castanos, PhD, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, PHD, LMFT
Sometimes things happen in life that we cannot stand up and keep walking like we have in the past. I help my clients take a look at what it is that has them feeling stuck and unhappy, where that might be coming from and work on the root of the problem.
