Hi My name is Diane I have more than 30+ years of experience doing therapy. I have worked in inpatient, outpatient settings as well as family service agencies and private practice. My approach is client centered with a strong focus on solution oriented short term therapy. I am a direct communicator, but use humor often to help clarify issues and to create an intervention that is easier to remember for my clients. Life sometimes is very hard, it is our reaction to it that makes it harder or easier. We can grow and learn to make our decisions based on our values and interests so that we are not fighting with ourself over the decisions that were always ours to make. We all make choices that have far ranging consequences for ourself and others- let us make them after a careful, honest self examination- therapy can provide a safe place for this self examination. . I have an interest in providing therapy and support for caregivers, clients with new medical challenges and families dealing with end of life issues. I have specialized in grief and loss as well as anxiety and depression. I am a direct communicator and have been able to " speak truth to power" so one of my subset of experiences is coaching executives who have lost their jobs and are going through emotionally challenging times. I am experienced at counseling cross cultural and interfaith families both at the pre-marital stage and further along in the marriage. I also have counseling experience ( as an ally) with GLBTQ+ counseling, coming out, managing the family disclosure and acceptance and straight spouse issues as well. Make no mistake, people need to work in therapy. A good therapist does not provide a NEST ( never ending supportive therapy) but rather a launching point.

Hello, my name is Charlotte D. Newsom. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC). I have thirty years of progressive experience in the field of mental health. Twenty of those years, I functioned as a psychotherapist working with individuals, specifically veterans who have chronic mental illnesses such as PTSD, Bipolar Disorder, Major Depressive Disorder, Substance Use Disorder, and many other disorders. I have an extensive background working with clients with symptomatic issues such as suicidal ideation, homicidal ideation, and child abuse/neglect. Besides, interpersonal matters, couples relationship issues, parenting problems, child neglect/abuse, and emotional/physical abuse. My professional history includes having a Master's Degree in Clinical Professional Psychology, and as stated above, I am a Licensed Clinical Profession Counselor (LCPC). I have an honorary membership with Roosevelt University Psi Chi Honor Society. And most recently, and for many years that past was awarded an Outstanding Performance Appraisal from the Jesse Brown VA Hospital for my exceptional clinical skills, dedication to excellence, and having a professional and compassionate relationship with patients and staff. My counseling techniques consist of being a good listener and fully understanding your emotions and reasoning. I have a flair for counseling that requires flexibility and attentiveness to develop coping skills to strengthen your abilities to succeed. I approach therapy by combining short-term and long-term treatment planning to meet your specific need. Your treatment plan will include integrating evidence-based treatment using the best available data with clinical knowledge and expertise while considering your personal needs and preferences. For example, short-term therapy consists of cognitive-behavioral therapy, behavior therapy, reality therapy for problem-solving, motivational enhancement therapy for addiction-related issues, and psychoeducation to improve insight into multiple problems. At the same time, long-term treatment may combine client-centered treatment that focuses on empathy and positive regard, psychodynamic therapy, and free association techniques to engage the client to talk. It takes courage to attend therapy, and it takes dedication to see it through. Just remember each day brings about new opportunities for change. So, let's work together to explore your goals for therapy; thank you.

I’m a licensed clinical social worker with many years of experience as a hospital and dialysis social worker. For much of my career I worked in dialysis, supporting patients through chronic illness, medical uncertainty, and the daily realities of life on treatment. Before that I worked on hospital units doing discharge planning and connecting people to community resources. In both settings I served as an advocate, mediator, and change agent — and I’ve always offered talk therapy alongside practical supports. I specialize in working with adults through the elderly. My clinical interests include generalized anxiety and social anxiety, relationship issues, life transitions and losses common in older adulthood, grief and bereavement, and building self-esteem. I enjoy partnering with clients who want to make real, sustainable changes in their lives. My therapeutic toolbox includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, humanistic approaches, mindfulness, and traditional talk therapy. I treat the whole person: mental health symptoms are important, but so are lifestyle, movement, breathing, and social connection. In sessions we’ll explore practical coping skills and evidence-based strategies, and I’ll also encourage healthy routines such as walking, swimming or water aerobics, yoga and stretching, breathing and mindfulness practices, soothing music (ocean or rain sounds), and nutrition and socialization — all of which support emotional healing and goal achievement. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can be heard, understood, and challenged kindly. My style is warm, collaborative, and strength-based. I’ll be your partner and coach — cheering you on, helping you build skills, and celebrating every step forward. If you’re ready to take the first step, contact me — I’ll congratulate you for making this important choice today and I’ll be with you tomorrow as we work toward your goals.

Hi, I’m Shannon. I’m a licensed therapist with over a decade of experience supporting adults, with a primary focus on women and femmes mental health, through identity shifts, self-esteem challenges, trauma recovery, and the complexities of intergenerational family dynamics. As a queer, neurodivergent white woman from the U.S. living with chronic fatigue and pain, I approach therapy with lived empathy, cultural humility, and a feminist, systems-aware lens. I center gender-affirming care, the often-invisible labor of caregiving, navigating identity-based and system oppression stress, and holding everything together. I also recognize the ways my whiteness shapes my experiences both in and out of the therapy room, and I remain actively engaged in unlearning, accountability, and using my privilege to create more equitable spaces. I work best with those who feel stuck in roles like people-pleaser, perfectionist, caretaker, or “the strong one,” and are ready to explore the stories behind those roles. Many of my clients are navigating life transitions, burnout, relational stress, or the quiet grief of asking, “Who am I now?” Especially those who are single, solo parenting, or consciously breaking cycles from their family of origin. My style is laid-back, compassionate, and collaborative—with a bit of humor when it helps. I’ve been described as warm, direct, and grounding. I offer individual therapy for adults (18+) only (I do not work with couples, children, or families at this time). Clinically, I integrate narrative therapy, mindfulness and acceptance-based practices (like ACT and DBT), trauma-informed care, and Positive Discipline for parents wanting a non-punitive, values-based approach. You don’t have to figure it all out alone. Together, we can work to untangle what’s no longer serving you and move toward grounded self-trust, emotional clarity, and more aligned choices.

Should I find a Kinmundy therapist or psychologist for therapy if I feel fine?

Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what it might entail. Although psychologists often support people with mental health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis or specific condition. You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback. A Kinmundy licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.

Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find with a counselor can be dependent on your process.

Is therapy worth it?

Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. An experienced clinician can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice.

Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.
