Meet Meliha Cerimovic, LMSW — a compassionate Iowa-based therapist helping adults and seniors navigate anxiety, grief, trauma, and relationship challenges. With a client-centered, trauma-informed approach, she empowers individuals to heal, find strength, and live authentically.

I’m a clinical social work intern with a strong foundation in human development, strategic planning, and social dynamics. I bring a unique perspective to mental health, particularly in supporting men as they navigate emotional challenges, work/life balance, life transitions, and relational issues. My approach is grounded in empathy, impactful therapeutic methods, and a deep commitment to personal growth. I aim to create a supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences, develop insight, and build practical tools for lasting change.

I'm Katie and I am a board-certified LMSW in the state of Pennsylvania. My approach to therapy is trauma informed and client-centered. I draw from many therapeutic frameworks including CBT, DBT, Psychodynamic therapy. I have experience supporting individuals through a wide variety of issues from infidelity and other relationship issues, substance use concerns, sexual trauma, LGBTQ+ identity, and more. As a therapist, I hope to co-create a safe yet transformative space with clients to achieve their goals.

Hi, my name is Cesaley, and I am a Licensed Master Social Worker. I have experience working with adolescents, families, and individuals from all walks of life and backgrounds. I am inclusive, accepting, and welcoming of all. In my therapeutic practice, I take a client-centered approach along with cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavioral therapy. I enjoy working with neurodivergent individuals who have ADHD, and individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression, and trauma. I have a passion for the LGBTQ+ community. In my sessions, I aim to make my clients feel comfortable and supported. I am a wife, mom of two daughters, an artist, and an avid reader. In my spare time, you will often find me trying out a new art hobby, chasing my kiddos around, or challenging my partner to a game.

Hi! My name is Joshua Barlow, I am a practicum social worker with a passion for supporting men, veterans, and couples through life’s challenges. My work focuses on fostering resilience, emotional wellness, and healthy relationships. Outside of my professional role, I find balance and fulfillment working on my farm, where I enjoy the peace and purpose that come with rural living.

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.

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.

Hello, my name is Bailey. With a passion for helping others and a strong background in mental health, I aim to assist in navigating clients through any challenges or harder experiences they may have. I believe that creating a safe and caring space allows for clients to grow and find how their strengths can be utilized in many ways.

Hi, my name is Sara. I’m currently finishing my Master of Social Work at the University of Kentucky. I come to clinical social work with a focus on humanistic care, in which we honor the inner experience of each person. I believe that we all have the capacity to grow and learn as we go through daily life, building on our successes. I bring the compassion and skills that I’ve developed in fourteen years of helping clients understand and navigate life transitions.

I enjoy providing support for teens and adults who are learning new ways of being, including living through family additions and losses. Through motivational interviewing, I want to hear what is important to you, so that you are invested in the change you seek. My goal is to help people share their stories so they can better understand themselves and their attachment patterns. In my spare time, I like to spend time with my family and pets, exploring nature, and sitting down with a mug of hot coffee.

Hello, my name is Tabitha, and I am an LCSW supervisee. I have experience working with adults facing a variety of mental health challenges, including bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, substance use disorders, depression, anxiety, and PTSD. In my therapeutic practice, I take a solution-focused approach, where we collaborate to explore practical solutions, identify your strengths, and set meaningful goals.

I have experience in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). My passion lies in empowering individuals to become the best version of themselves and to foster personal growth. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, reading, and spending time with friends and family, whether watching sports or enjoying a good movie.
