Vanessa Shoop, LCSW
I believe that you have internal strengths and power to overcome any challenge. My role as your therapist is to find and enhance those strengths through a supportive partnership leading to an enhanced quality of life as you individually define it. I have had a variety of therapeutic experiences, and the one similarity in all is that each person wants to be happy and feel fulfilled. By identifying your personal meaning of "happy" and building your strengths to reach that, your life can change! I am a Christian and open to supporting spiritual growth in anyone wishing to include this aspect of personal change.

Kimberly Chance, LMFT
As the therapist, my role is to provide support and facilitate greater awareness and thereby foster a more enriching experience. I believe a person enters therapy when their life's circumstances outweigh their ability to cope and the right support can allow them to feel more equipped to manage the challenges they may face. I see therapy as a journey in which a person can explore more about themselves and process their experiences; with the ultimate destination being more than a specific outcome but all the revelations that are gained along the way. I look forward to joining the various journeys of life.
