Larry Litras, LMFT
I am a licensed social worker and a licensed addiction therapist. The bulk of my work has focused around family systems and the multi-generational aspects of emotional and behavioral issues. It's important to understand the past as a way of managing the present and the future. I have worked with different populations over the decades of my career and feel able to assist in most cases. My work with adolescents trying to manage behavioral/emotional and substance use issues is fairly extensive. I believe the most important aspect of helping is being an excellent listener and focusing on solutions.

Dr. Emma Sunshaw, LPC
The most transformative aspect of counseling is feeling safe and supported by a knowledgeable therapist who will listen empathetically and without judgment as you draw out your best self, using your own inner wisdom applied as "medicine" to overcome obstacles - whether they are internal (for example: low self-esteem, critical inner voice, shame, childhood traumas) or external (for example: illness, loss of a loved one, partner betrayal, family issues, financial troubles). My counseling style is warm and interactive, but with positive accountability to encourage healthy changes.
