Specialist: Children and Family

Tyla B.

Tyla D., MSW, LSW- Therapist
I’ve dedicated 13 years of my career to serving children and families who are going through an acute crisis. I have a thriving interest in continuing to help others navigate through those unexpected challenges.

Helping an individual find the tools to assist in their healing has always been a passion of mine.

For the past 12 years I’ve worked with pediatric patients in a healthcare system who have been inflicted with trauma; including sexual abuse, physical abuse, neglect, and being involved in a traumatic accident causing injury to their bodies. As well as, providing crisis counseling to those faced with the death of their child.
For the past 7 years, I’ve worked with birth mothers and prospective adoptive parents going through the adoption process.

 

Providing support, comfort, and counseling for the stressors that go along with the adoption process. I’ve also devoted 7 years of work to children of divorced parents.
Behavioral and mental health needs are challenges that everyone faces in some aspect of their life. Providing the necessary tools, empowering, and finding strengths along the way to help aid with hope and healing is my goal. My therapeutic approach is trauma-informed care, mindfulness, and client-centered.

Latoya,

LPCC-S (OHIO),Supervisor  

LMHC (WASHINGTON STATE)

I believe that each of us have been created to live life on purpose, with purpose, and with meaning. Wellness means giving attention to ourselves physically, spiritually, mentally, and emotionally. During the most difficult times in our lives, we can find deficits in our wellness – in any of the above areas. When we are impaired, our functioning is also impaired. As a counselor, my mission is to work with adults, couples, families, and children during the most difficult times in their lives. I am dedicated to empowering you and your loved ones to find “wholeness.”

My goal is for my clients to live the life they want to live, and I want to empower you to create lasting, positive change within your life. My therapeutic process helps clients understand how to use your own agency to move toward whole-hearted living. Together, we will create strategies for coping and relating to others so you can thrive.

I understand the therapeutic process can seem overwhelming, so I am committed to meeting my clients where they are and building a foundation of genuine trust and respect. Wherever you are in your journey, I want to partner with you to take you to the next level.

I began my career in human services in 2019 after earning my BASW from the University of Washington, working alongside children and families navigating a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and systemic challenges. This early work shaped my understanding of how support, stability, and connection can transform lives and strengthened my commitment to compassionate, holistic care.

MB H., MSW, LSW

 

In our work together, my goal is to create space for you — a space where you can breathe, be honest, explore what’s really going on beneath the surface, and reconnect with your own strength. Therapy with me is collaborative, warm, and practical. We’ll build skills you can actually use, explore patterns with curiosity rather than criticism, and work toward feeling more aligned, present, and emotionally supported. You deserve care that sees you as a whole person. I’m here to walk alongside you as you rediscover clarity, confidence, and a life that feels like yours again.

My path to becoming a therapist was shaped by what I witnessed in my community. Over the years, I saw more and more people experiencing life-changing trauma, unexpected losses, and barriers to feeling truly supported. What stood out to me wasn’t just the struggles themselves — it was how many people were carrying them alone. That realization is what pulled me toward social work and ultimately into practicing therapy.

I earned my Graduate Degree from Cleveland State University, am a Licensed Social Worker in the state of Ohio, and have been practicing in community health since 2020.

​

My focus and interests are led by helping clients navigate anxiety, overwhelming transitions, self-doubt, and the pressure to “hold it all together.” My approach blends ACT, CBT, and DBT, while incorporating the mind–body connection — because I believe healing happens when we care for the whole person, not just the symptoms.
