Coffee Talk Counseling is a safe space to work on improving mental health, including trauma, anxiety, and depression.

I am frequently asked why you provide therapy? Because I see people with life issues like trauma, depression, and anxiety work hard in therapy to better themselves. I have the privilege of watching people change and grow in healthy ways. I am Cara Boyd, a Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker (LSCSW). I have experience working as a Social Worker in public schools and at a crisis center. I specialized in working with people who have experienced trauma with additional training in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I have also treated general anxiety and depression. I help you improve your mental health. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe and heard, so that we can work together to help you heal and thrive. If you'd like to see if we're a good fit let's meet and chat. You can request an appointment by phone or visiting our website where you can conveniently schedule online.
