Dealing with grief, loss, or trauma? Feeling disconnected, alone, and unhappy? Struggling with relationships, addiction, or painful wounds from childhood? If you said yes to any of these, I can help. Often, the burdens of trauma manifests itself in mysterious ways and can lead to various concerns such as depression, anxiety, addiction, relationship difficulties, trust issues, isolation, and shame. These challenges can hinder healthy relationships and self-care.

I provide compassionate, confidential psychiatric care designed to help you feel supported and understood. Each treatment plan is personalized, using evidence-based approaches tailored to your unique needs and goals. My goal is to create a safe, judgment-free space where we can work together to manage challenges such as anxiety, depression, mood changes, or sleep issues. Appointments are available virtually for your convenience.

I am an LCSW who loves working with children, teens, parents, and individuals in the LGBTQ+ community.

My work is shaped not just by my training, but by my lived experience. I was once a queer kid with ADHD, so I understand how complicated it can feel to navigate identity, relationships, and mental health, especially when you don’t always feel like you fit in. Because of that, I really value creating a space where you can show up exactly as you are and feel understood.

I work with women in their 20s and 30s who are dealing with anxiety, ADHD, or that overwhelming sense that life should feel more manageable by now. A lot of my clients have tried therapy before and felt like it wasn't clicking, like they were spinning their wheels. That's exactly the kind of stuck I help with.

Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or out of balance in your life or relationships? Maybe anxiety, depression, stress, or the demands of daily life have started to feel heavier than they once did. Whether you are navigating personal challenges, relationship difficulties, parenting stress, or emotional exhaustion, therapy can offer a space to slow down, feel supported, and begin moving forward with greater clarity and confidence.

My passion is helping people create meaningful, lasting change in their lives. I take a holistic, compassionate approach to therapy while drawing from evidence-based practices tailored to each client’s unique needs and goals. I believe progress is not one-size-fits-all, and I work to create a therapeutic experience that is thoughtful, flexible, and responsive to the individual sitting in front of me.

I enjoy working with adults, couples, families, children, and adolescents across a range of concerns. I strive to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel seen, respected, and empowered to better understand themselves, strengthen relationships, and build the tools needed to navigate life more effectively.

Hi! My name is Helen Roberts, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Iowa. I’ve been counseling children, teens, adults, couples, and families for over 20 years - but in my experience, that’s not really what you want to know. What you really want to know is, can I help you? And is there hope for things to change for you? As a matter of fact, there is, and I hope you’ll give me an opportunity to take that journey towards healing and empowerment with you. We can change the direction of your life right now and give you hope and power again!

I am Stanley Okeyemi, the founder of Brighter Light Behavioral Health Services. I am currently licensed as a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) in Texas, Connecticut, Florida, Idaho, Iowa, Washington, North Carolina, Nebraska, Virginia and New York. I have been working in the mental health industry for 16 years, but licensed as a PMHNP for four years, with a vast amount of experience and affiliations with over 40 hospitals/clinics combined across the USA

Hello, I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) with a passion for helping individuals find balance, clarity, and fulfillment through personalized, evidence-based mental health care. I bring over a decade of healthcare experience and a deep commitment to compassionate, collaborative treatment.

I earned my Master of Science in Nursing and a post-graduate certificate in Psychiatric Mental Health through Purdue University Global, after completing my BSN at Western Governors University and my ASN at Des Moines Area Community College. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals across the lifespan and a wide range of mental health needs.

In addition to private practice with Good Life Therapy since late 2023, I also serve as a psychiatric provider at Mary Greeley Medical Center’s Outpatient Behavioral Health Clinic. These roles allow me to stay connected to both community-based and clinical psychiatric care, and ensure that I continue using the most current, research-driven tools and approaches available.

My treatment philosophy is rooted in the belief that mental wellness is deeply personal—and no two paths look the same. I work closely with each of my clients to develop a treatment plan that’s not only effective, but sustainable and aligned with their goals, values, and lifestyle. Whether we’re addressing anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, or simply building resilience—I’ll meet you where you are and walk with you toward where you want to be.
