Hi, I am Ryan Wade, a psychiatrist board certified in Psychiatry, Addiction Psychiatry, and Addiction Medicine. I completed medical school and my Psychiatry residency at Eastern Virginia Medical School, followed by an Addiction Psychiatry fellowship at Yale University School of Medicine. Despite my training in the addiction field, I spend a large portion of my time focusing on mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, and more. I find that I typically work most with people who want to consolidate their medication regimen or those who view medication as a tool, not solely the solution to the issues they are facing.

I attempt to meet people where they are and the level they are willing to engage with treatment as this varies significantly from person to person. I believe psychotherapy is quite powerful for most people and routinely recommend it alongside my work with clients, including any medications I would potentially prescribe. 

If you are considering seeing someone for your mental health — or even wondering if what you are feeling day-to-day is "normal" and would like an assessment — feel free to schedule an appointment. There is no pressure to start medication or to even continue in treatment if you feel that it isn't right for you. I look forward to meeting you soon!

I am a LPCC-S and I got my masters degree in clinical mental health counseling at Kent State University. I primarily use narrative therapy, reality therapy/choice theory, EMDR, and ERP. I can see ages 10 years old and up and will be doing telehealth counseling only. I believe the client knows themselves more than I will ever know them and am here to help them with what I learned in school to reach their goals.

I believe we all have a story where what happened to us connects to other things that happen to us. Through mapping out your story, we can find peace in your life.

We all must choose between what is right and what is easy.

Greetings, my name is Kiera E. Graham. I am a dual licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) and marriage, family, and couples therapist (LMFT) certified in trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT), with over 10 years in the behavioral health field. I earned my Bachelor of Psychology in 2016 and my dual Master of Science in Education with a concentration in therapeutic counseling in 2019. I have served populations struggling with depression, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, couples concerns, life stressors, and addiction across varying ages, races, ethnicities, and socioeconomic backgrounds.

The methods I use stem from clinical modalities such as cognitive behavioral therapy, which challenges intrusive thoughts and limiting beliefs that impair mental health. I specialize in providing empathic listening, coping skills, and life tools to help improve counterintuitive belief systems and encourage clients to restructure core attributes causing emotional disruptions. 

As a heartfelt dual licensed therapist, my mantra is to inspire—you must first aspire to uplift others. To do this effectively, you must also have the desire to empower, lead, serve, and heal. I am excited to start this empowering healing journey of recovery with you and all clients I serve.
