Jasmine Lanier
Registered Marriage & Family Therapist Intern

An ideal client for me would be someone who has decided they have had enough and is ready to start the healing process. My approach is direct and transparent with an understanding vibe. My passion is working with young adults and couples. This Therapy journey won't be easy but it will be worth it. I have worked with various populations in different positions in the mental health field from case management to Marriage and Family Therapy. I am straightforward and direct in my therapeutic approach which consists of Cognitive Behavioral Family Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and more. As a Puerto Rican female raised in a family of abuse, we are taught to be seen not heard and to keep bad things a secret. From an early age I knew that being silent would not be my life. It was not in my character and it was not what I felt was the right way. My mission is to be the voice for the voiceless and stop generational trauma. PERIOD!

“I’m not sure why I just shared all of that with you” is a comment I have heard many times in my life and is one of the reasons I chose mental health counseling as a profession. When someone is hurting and senses they are in the presence of another who is truly curious about and accepting of them, they feel seen and understood. This is where healing takes place.
​
People in all stages of life journey through uncharted paths that can lead to confusion, anxiety, and despair. Getting relief from the pain that can feel devastating and hopeless seems like a never-ending war. It is possible to feel whole again. It is possible to live a life worth living.
Although I work with people at any stage in life, I specialize in working with teens and young adults who struggle with suicidal ideation, self-harm, and Borderline Personality Disorder. I also have years of experience working with those in addiction and those coming out of human trafficking. I would welcome your invitation to walk with you in your journey!

Tanya Goodwin
Mental Health Counseling Student Intern
Are you searching for a compassionate counselor to help you navigate trauma, heal from past wounds, and build a stronger future?
Hi, my name is Tanya. I bring over 19 years of experience in education and a deep passion for counseling. My work is dedicated to supporting individuals on their path to healing, growth, and self-empowerment. While my foundation is in education, my commitment to mental health and trauma recovery has led me to specialize in counseling.
​
My approach is grounded in respect, understanding, and a genuine desire to help individuals reclaim their strength. Whether you're working through past trauma, overcoming challenges, or seeking guidance in mental health or addiction recovery, I am here to support you on your journey.
​
I specialize in working with children and adults who have experienced abuse, exploitation, trafficking, and addiction. Throughout my career, I have supported individuals from diverse backgrounds, including Native American communities, individuals with disabilities, incarcerated populations, and those involved in child and victim advocacy. My experience has given me a profound understanding of the complexities of trauma and how it affects every aspect of a person’s life.
​
I know that healing is not a one-size-fits-all journey. That’s why I use evidence-based approaches tailored to each individual’s unique needs. My work focuses on fostering resilience, helping clients break free from self-sabotaging thoughts, and guiding them toward a renewed sense of self-worth and stability.
​
I have experience in treating a range of psychological disorders, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), complex PTSD (C-PTSD), depression, anxiety disorders, borderline personality disorder (BPD), dissociative disorders, substance use disorders, and attachment disorders.
​
Whether you’re dealing with the aftermath of trauma, struggling with addiction, or seeking support for mental health challenges, you don’t have to face it alone. I am here to help you reclaim your strength, find hope, and move forward with confidence.
