Larry Nussbaum, LIFE JOURNEY CENTEER
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LSCSW, LISCW
Everyone at times needs some support or coaching on their life journey. I'd be happy to sit down with you or talk on the phone and compassionately listen to your story and lend some hope and encouragement. I view "problems" as opportunities to work on and overcome the 'threats' within and around us and to open up our lives to new levels of growth.

Tacoma Wellness Collective
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
We started Tacoma Wellness Collective because we believe therapy works best when it feels human.
Too often, mental health care can feel transactional — a symptom list, a diagnosis, a treatment plan. That's not what we do here. At TWC, we show up as real people who have done our own work, who understand that healing isn't linear, and who genuinely care about the people sitting across from us.
Our therapists are clinically trained and experienced — but what sets us apart is the culture we've built around care. We take the therapeutic relationship seriously. We believe that feeling safe with your therapist isn't a luxury — it's the foundation everything else is built on.
We work with adults navigating some of life's most difficult terrain: relationship stress, burnout, life transitions, grief, identity, and the patterns that keep showing up no matter how hard you try to outrun them. We don't promise quick fixes. We offer something steadier — a space where the real work can happen, at a pace that respects your nervous system.
TWC is rooted in Tacoma. This community matters to us. Whether you're sitting with us in person or connecting virtually from across Washington State, you'll feel that.
We accept insurance because access matters. And we're here when you're ready.

Jay Shaw
Hypnotherapist, CHt (Certified Hypnotherapist)
Most high performers don't have a strategy problem. They have an identity problem. The beliefs, triggers, and automatic responses running in the background are the real ceiling and talking about them only gets you so far. I'm Jay Shaw, a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist and creator of Identity 2.0 Neural Reprogramming, based in Richardson, TX and serving the greater Dallas area and clients nationwide. My work targets the subconscious architecture driving your patterns and replaces it at the root. A systematic rebuild across 12 dimensions of identity tailored specifically to you. In-person and virtual options available. If you're done managing what you want eliminated, book a strategy call at hypnosisdallastx.com.
