Hi, my name is Sheila Flipse. My passion is to come along side individuals who are hurting and struggling and walk with them through their journey to health and wholeness in a kind and compassionate manner. I am a licensed clinical professional counselor in the state of Nevada, and a licensed mental health counselor in the state of New York. I am also a national certified counselor. Born in Liverpool, England I moved to Toronto, Ontario, Canada as a child. I moved the United States to attend college and graduate school. In 2000 I became an American citizen. My areas of specialty include grief and loss, depression, anxiety and stress. While I was a college professor, I developed a class entitled, Death and Dying that has proved helpful to many people over the last few years. I love to help people build a healthy self concept and develop confidence. I have over 30 years of counseling experience. My professional life has included working with the homeless, elderly, prison, college and military populations. I have lots of experience with relationship and marital concerns. In my spare time I enjoy traveling (62 countries so far!), having fun with my Shichon, Ozzie, playing board games and volunteering for community activities. My approach is very much cognitive behavioral therapy with motivational interviewing techniques. Together we work to find out what is working in the client's life and develop those skills and techniques. Then I work at helping the client become aware of inaccurate or negative thinking patterns so that they can begin to view challenging situations more clearly and respond to them in more effective ways. I offer video chat, phone calls or live text chat. My calendar is available for you to schedule appointments with me. I do ask that if you schedule an appointment with me, that you keep the appointment. By canceling, it may create unavailability for someone who really needs to chat. As a recent widow, it may be necessary for my dog Ozzie to be present during our counseling sessions as he is adjusting to his loss as well. It would be my honor to work with you.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York State. I have 16 years of experience combined with Agency and Elementary School experience. The majority of my clinical work ranges anywhere between 5-adulthood. Much of my experience has been with trauma, abuse, loss and familial disruption. I have also worked with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges and changes, OCD and ADHD. My counseling approach can be described as friendly, supportive, warm and inviting. I understand how difficult it can be to ask for help, and I want to make it as comfortable as possible. I use a combined approach of Psychodynamic, Client Centered Therapy (CCT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) when working with clients. I will focus our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. If you are ready to take the next step toward a happier and more fulfilling life; I will be here to support and encourage you along this journey. I look forward to working with you!

Hello, I’m Felipe Sepúlveda, LCSW, CFSW. I provide supportive, practical, and goal-focused therapy for adults experiencing anxiety, stress, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, and financial stress. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, confident, and better equipped to handle the pressures of everyday life. I specialize in working with men who feel overwhelmed by responsibility, work demands, family roles, or internal pressure to “hold everything together.” Many of the clients I work with are high-functioning on the outside but quietly dealing with stress, burnout, or emotional exhaustion. Together, we focus on building emotional resilience, improving communication, and developing tools that create real, lasting change. I also work with women and adults from all backgrounds who are seeking a structured, supportive space to better understand themselves, strengthen coping skills, and move forward with clarity and intention. As a Certified Financial Social Worker (CFSW), I integrate an understanding of the emotional and psychological impact of money stress, financial decision-making, and life transitions connected to career and stability. Our work may include addressing financial anxiety, avoidance patterns, or the emotional side of money — always focused on wellbeing rather than financial advising. My approach is collaborative, practical, and grounded in evidence-based methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and solution-focused therapy. I aim to create a space where you can speak openly without judgment while developing strategies you can apply in real life. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or ready to make meaningful changes, I’m here to support you.
