About
I strive to help each client utilize their strengths to improve their quality of life through a queer, sober, neurodivergent-informed, compassionate yet direct approach.
I am a Resident Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 2 years of experience in inpatient psychiatry, outpatient therapy, and programs supporting gender expression and identity. I provide trauma-informed, inclusive care for individuals navigating anxiety, depression, identity exploration, and trauma. I strive to create a safe, supportive space where clients can engage in emotional growth, self-discovery, and evidence-based strategies for healing.
I hold a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Lesley University and have training in cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and motivational interviewing. My approach is humanistic and creative, helping clients build resilience, develop coping strategies, and achieve personal growth.
I am passionate about helping people reach their full potential in a non-judgmental, supportive environment. Clients can expect to feel challenged and encouraged to build self-esteem, recognize strengths, and move forward with confidence and genuine support.

One of the biggest lessons I've learned—both in my own life and as a therapist—is that healing isn't linear. There are seasons of growth, setbacks, and rediscovery, and each has something valuable to teach us. My own journey introduced me to the powerful connection between mental and physical wellness, which continues to shape how I support clients today.
Hi, I'm Riley, a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) passionate about helping individuals recognize their strengths and create lasting change. I believe therapy isn't about "fixing" someone—it's about creating a space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to move toward a life that feels authentic, balanced, and meaningful to you.
I've worked with adolescents and adults supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, behavioral challenges, trauma, and transitions. I'm passionate about holistic wellness and how movement and fitness support healing. I hold certifications in WAG Nutrition and Trauma-Informed Weight Lifting.
I take a collaborative, compassionate approach to therapy. Whether exploring coping skills, processing experiences, or improving relationships, I help you build on your strengths and create meaningful change. Reaching out can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to navigate challenges alone. I look forward to walking alongside you.

As an empathetic individual it is Tiffany's passion to help people of all kinds through therapeutic skill, technique and cultural awareness.
Tiffany Marro has worked in the mental health field for more than five years. She has worked with individuals ranging in age from 4 to 25+ years old. Specifically, Tiffany has experience working with children and young adults on the autism spectrum. She has seen children, teens, young adults, and adults for individual counseling. Tiffany's passion is working with children, young adults, and couples for couples/marriage counseling. She has helped her clients work on goals of all kinds, such as communication skills, interpersonal skills, depression, anxiety, grief, motivation, and relationships, to name a few.
In 2016 Tiffany graduated with her Bachelor's Degree in counseling from the University of New Haven. Tiffany then graduated from Eastern Nazarene College in 2020 with a Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy. Tiffany envisions therapy as a collaborative effort. Tiffany believes that when she and the client have a great rapport and actively engage in honest communication and therapeutic techniques clients will undoubtedly achieve their mental health goals. Tiffany feels her clinical superpower is the ability to empathize. Growing up in a city surrounded by diverse people and cultures of all lifestyles has given Tiffany an additional sense of awareness that contributes to her understanding and ability to empathize. Tiffany facilitates strength-based therapy and emits positive energy. All of which allows space for the therapeutic process to be successful.
Tiffany understands it may be difficult to reach out for help or start something new. This may be your first time considering therapy or this may be your fifth attempt at finding the right counselor. Tiffany would like for you to know that it's important to her that the therapeutic space feels safe and you're able to set the pace.

As a former member of a special operations military unit, I understand and can empathize with directly- and indirectly-related issues.
Lee Walker is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, a Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CADC), and a former member of a military Special Operations unit with 45 years of experience in mental health/addictions treatment. He is very concerned regarding the impact of trauma (frequently underrated) and the disease course of addictions (also frequently underrated). He is optimistic that significant life improvement is possible for his clients, and is committed to working with them to see that potential. Leon’s specialties are PTDS, trauma, and addictions.
Lee earned his Bachelor's in Abnormal Psychology at Clark University and Master's at Assumption University. His military background exposed him to a wide range of life circumstances and difficulties that impact people—many of whom have given up hope. Lee teaches his clients to use rational emotive therapy and reality therapy to manage symptoms on their own.
Lee believes that all clients have the potential to conduct self-therapy so they have clinical tools and interventions at all times.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Thriveworks Couples therapy helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. It is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples. Some examples of common focuses within couples therapy include:
Couples therapy works by helping couples identify and better navigate their unique challenges. Following an initial assessment of the couple in terms of strengths and needs, the therapist would then discuss their therapeutic goals and any possible approaches or ways of working together as therapist and couple.Couples attend sessions together, whether they meet in person or by video. In addition to regular couples therapy sessions, each partner may also be asked to attend a few individual sessions to supplement their progress. This will allow their counselor to get to know each individual better, assess each of their personal needs, and develop the very best treatment plan moving forward.
Couples therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and via Online therapy. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.
On average, couples attend couples therapy for 12 weeks. However, couples therapy may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress.
