Laura Gilley, LMSW-C

Philosophy of Care

Throughout my time in practice I have worked with people who have struggled deeply with Trauma, Substance Use Disorders, Relationships problems, Family issues, Anxiety, Depression and many other barriers that prevented them from living a peaceful life. All people deserve peace and in my time working, I find that no matter what the barrier, the goal is to always walk on a journey with the client to find what their idea of peace looks like and take the steps to achieve it.

My approach to therapy is person centered with an adoption of your right to self-determination. There is no judgment. I believe that all people do the best they can in the situations they are in. I help people achieve the best outcome, whether that be individually or as a couple.

It would be my privilege to be able to help you with whatever struggle you may be going through.

Marcia Boatman, LPC

Philosophy of Care

Marcia Boatman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who specializes in treating mood disorders, anxiety, borderline personality disorder, trauma, addiction, and adjustment issues in adolescents and adults. Marcia has 12 years of experience in the mental health field. Her doctoral research in academic resilience qualifies her to address mental health and social issues that interfere with academic performance. Her experience as both a therapist and a researcher has increased her awareness that the vulnerability of untreated mental illness and addiction in youth and families increases the risk for behavioral problems such as anger outbursts, truancy, bullying, and potentially high school dropout. As a result of Marcia’s lived experience and education, she is committed to treating youth and families to help reduce negative outcomes in education and mental health.

Marcia completed her Master of Science (MS) at the University of Phoenix. She is passionate about education, and her background includes teaching college level courses. In her doctoral program, Marcia conducted original research on the academic resilience of minority Ph.D students exposed to childhood poverty and parental substance abuse. Her experience in resilience research increased her knowledge of the significance of identifying risk and protective factors when working with youth and families to identify barriers to learning. Marcia grew up in the inner city of Detroit during the peak of the crack-cocaine epidemic and the emergence of the HIV and AIDS epidemic. Her life experience gives her compassion for all people regardless of socioeconomic status, culture, race, gender, religious beliefs, or sexual orientation.

Marcia seeks to provide support and empower you by helping you identify and overcome the obstacles that perpetuate suffering. She believes that therapy is a commitment to move forward in self-love and self-growth. Marcia is glad that you are taking the steps to write the next chapter in your life. She will create a personalized treatment plan that meets your specific needs, utilizing cognitive behavioral therapy(CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and strength-based approaches. No matter what you are going through at this point in your life, Marcia would like to partner with you to help you find better solutions during these unusual times. She looks forward to hearing from you.

Pamela Rybka, LPC

Philosophy of Care

My philosophy of care is to involve clients in their treatment plan. I will work with you but I will not work harder than you on your wellness. Your wellness encompasses all of you:  body, mind, spirit. One must be open to new ideas. We will explore what has worked for you in the past and what has not.  I use various treatment modalities including, but not limited to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Psychoeducational Therapy, Mindfulness and Meditation.

 Together we will explore, with your input, how you as a client can become your optimum best self on this journey of life. There is no right or wrong. Therapy is a process of growth. Therapy is about relationships. Your relationship with your therapist and your relationship with yourself and those around you. 

Confidentiality is of utmost importance within the therapeutic relationship. However, it is imperative that you know if I feel you are at harm to yourself or others that I am a mandated reporter. I am also mandated to report any suspicion of abuse, neglect or exploitation.
