Hi, I’m Niko, a Licensed Social Worker (LSW) with two years of experience providing compassionate, trauma-informed care to children, teens, adults, couples, and families. I take a client-centered approach to therapy, honoring each person's story and working collaboratively to support healing, emotional regulation, and growth. Whether you're navigating anxiety, parenting challenges, or seeking better coping skills, my goal is to create a safe, affirming space where you feel seen and supported.

I integrate a variety of evidence-based approaches—like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy—tailored to your needs. I also deeply value inclusive care and proudly work with clients from LGBTQIA+ communities, diverse relationship structures, and those seeking sex-positive, body-positive, or kink-affirming support.

When I’m not in session, you’ll find me on my small farm tending to my organic garden, caring for my two cows and mini donkey, Oakly, making art, and soaking in the peace of nature.

Hi, my name is Jada (she/her) and I am working toward receiving my license to be a clinical social worker (LCSW). I enjoy using trauma-informed approaches that center psychodynamic strategies, dialectical behavior therapy, and culturally-inclusive care. I have specialized experience in interpersonal violence prevention (DV/SV), youth advocacy, and promoting intersectionality through a systems framework. I have additional experience working with neurodiversity, LGBTQIA+, anxiety, PTSD, and depression. I love to bake, paint, and write spoken word in my free time while learning more about how I can improve as a provider.

Welcome! I’m so glad you’ve found your way here. If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about how to move forward, you're not alone. I work with individuals just like you—people who want to break free from the frustration of feeling like you're not making progress. Whether you're struggling with balancing different aspects of your life, managing stress, or navigating transitions, I am here to help. I’ve spent years working with people of all ages in educational and non-profit settings, so I understand the many pressures life can place on us. I’m committed to providing a safe, supportive space where you feel truly heard and understood—no matter what you're going through. As a daughter, wife, and parent, I understand firsthand the joy and struggles of balancing faith, marriage, family life, work, and personal wellness. Life can be overwhelming when you’re trying to do it all, and it’s easy to lose sight of your own needs. My own experiences have deepened my commitment to work with people who feel lost, stuck, or unsure of their next step. My goal is to provide you with practical tools and the emotional support you need to regain clarity, confidence, and a sense of control in your life. My approach combines proven, evidence-based therapies with a deeper exploration of your personal values. Together, we’ll work through your challenges in a way that feels authentic to who you are. I also offer faith-based counseling for those desiring this integration; however, my practice is welcoming to everyone. No matter where you come from, I’m here to walk alongside you as we create a path forward that feels true to you—so you can make meaningful, lasting changes that align with your values. I hold a Master of Science in Social Work from the University of Nevada Reno and a Master of Pastoral Studies from Holy Apostles College & Seminary. When I’m not in session, you’ll probably find me curled up with a good book (I’m always working toward my Goodreads goal!), listening to a podcast, gardening, or spending time with my husband, daughter, and our energetic Belgian Malinois pup, all while enjoying the beautiful hills of Virginia.

As a therapist, I strive to provide a space where you feel truly seen, supported, and empowered to grow. I’m trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Polyvagal Theory. My work is grounded in compassion and backed by evidence-based approaches.

With three years of clinical experience, I specialize in helping adults, seniors, couples, and families navigate challenges related to codependency, relationship issues, substance use, coping skills, and women’s issues. I’m especially passionate about supporting single mothers and the queer community in their healing journeys.

My therapeutic style is warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental. Together, we’ll work to identify patterns, build motivation for change, and explore how your relationships and life experiences shape your emotional well-being. Whether you're seeking support for a life transition, a deeper understanding of yourself, or healthier relationships, I’m here to walk alongside you.

Hi there! I'm Caleigh Ball, LMSW — a dedicated mental health professional with a passion for helping children and families thrive.

With years of experience as a School District Social Worker and in the child welfare system, I bring a deep understanding of the unique challenges families face. My approach is rooted in empowerment and collaboration, always keeping your goals at the center of our work together.

I draw from a variety of supportive methods tailored to your needs, including trauma-informed strategies, play-based techniques, solution-focused conversations, and crisis support. I specialize in helping families navigate the impacts of intergenerational trauma, communication barriers, overwhelming stress, anxiety, and depression.

Outside of my work, you’ll find me enjoying the outdoors with my dogs or spending meaningful time with loved ones.

I'm here to walk alongside you and your family as you work toward a more connected, resilient, and hopeful future.
