Karen Baumstark, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., CMHIMP, CTACC
In searching for a therapist, you are taking the first step in what could be the most important journey of your life. It is definitely possible to make important, lasting improvements in your life and levels of happiness, satisfaction, and success. Therapy is often an effective way to attain these goals. With almost 40 years of experience working as a counselor and then a psychologist, I am well-qualified to help you identify what is standing in the way of increased life satisfaction, and help you effectively work towards your goals. People often get stuck in old patterns that make them unhappy, want to change them, but don't know how. I work together with my clients to understand how old patterns in thought, feeling, and behavior got established, and then explore how best to change those patterns. I enjoy doing longer term, deeper work with clients, to create significant, meaningful, and lasting change. I often employ a holistic approach, exploring personal history, thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and relationship history and issues, as well as issues including medical history, self-care habits, and experiences of spirituality. I view the therapy relationship as a partnership, respecting the pace and timing that the client requires.

Dr. Sharese Martin
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC
Thank you for entering my counseling profile. I encourage people through partnership, mutual respect, trust, and goal alignment. I offer non-biased psychotherapy to clients ages four and up and from various backgrounds. We will work together to achieve your individual goals. We will consider a range of influences such as (1) your own motivation and biological environment; (2) your immediate surroundings including your family; and (3) your interactions within larger environmental systems consisting of society and culture. By using this holistic approach, I am certain that a positive change will take place.

Jason Carlettini
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Having experienced how mental health can create life-altering implications on people in my family, I have dedicated my life to trying to help as many people and families have the support and resources needed to experience growth, hope, and healing. Often I work with clients who express frustration with past counseling experiences being stale and feeling as though they talked and talked but never experienced real change. Knowing from my training and experience that most people can experience the type of change they desire, I approach counseling as a guide to help those I work with discover what has been holding them back and a tangible plan to experience their goals. Counseling should result in real change and it can be a good and even, at times, a fun process that we look forward to.

Mirasol Whitbey
Pre-Licensed Professional, MS, NCC, LPC-A, CTP, CCATP
I am honored when clients allow me to embark on their journey together toward healing and a better sense of well-being. It is also about allowing me to sit with them in their present awareness of reality and not feel so isolated from their thoughts and emotions. Everyone's story is different and unique to their circumstances and dynamics. Seeing a client truly feel heard and finding their voice when they thought it was lost is a profound experience. It can be a reminder their story is not over, but a new chapter is unfolding. Whether I see an individual, couple, or family, I can have an outside-looking-in perspective that the client may not see otherwise.
