Hello, I'm Dennis Alvarez, PsyD, LPC-A. Counseling should encourage and challenge individuals to meet their fullest potential by addressing their mental, emotional, and spiritual needs. When I work with clients, I like to help them understand how and why certain behaviors or patterns of behaviors occur. I work with individuals with a history of depression, anxiety, trauma, and substance abuse issues.
Unfortunately, these issues often lead to problems with relationships at home, work or school. Sometimes, people will have physical or somatic symptoms that can result in chronic health problems. Much of my previous research focused on the long-term effects of trauma and how it can lead to physical symptoms or illnesses. In my practice, I use an integrative approach to treatment. I utilize a variety of modalities, including CBT, Individual/Adlerian psychology, and Neurofeedback, to help clients manage or alleviate their symptoms.

Hello, I'm Deandre Dyer, LMSW. Life is filled with things to worry about. Sometimes those worries come from within yourself. For adults this could be irritability, anger, or fear. For children & teens these worries could even present as behavioral issues or in-school disturbances. Developing confidence, self-esteem, and positive thinking habits can be the key to unlocking a better reality. I want to help you build this confidence & self-esteem; I want to equip you with the tools to create positive thinking habits, and inevitably help you to use all of these skills to overcome your worries. My experience allows me to work comfortably with children, teens, and adults. My approach will center around your individual needs & goals. I utilize techniques found in Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Child Centered Play Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. We will work together to decrease negative thoughts, and reduce self-defeating behaviors. At each step of the way, I will be there guiding you, your child, or your teen along the journey to self discovery.
