Meet Cecilia

Licensed Professional Counselor Cecilia C. Oaks, LPC, MHSP, Cecilia brings over 16 years of experience and specializes in providing therapy to children and teenagers with trauma, PTSD, mood disorders, ADHD, anxiety, depression, self esteem issues, self-harming, sexual abuse, suicidal ideation, and other behavioral disorders. Cecilia is committed to providing her clients with compassionate care and is passionate about creating opportunities for people to overcome barriers to thriving in life. 

“Cecilia is absolutely top tier. She is immediately warm and trustworthy. She has been such a wonderful addition to my son's life, and he is making amazing progress thanks to her. Sometimes it's not easy for a 16 year old boy to be open and honest, but Cecilia definitely has a gift. She is not a "one size fits all" type counselor and tailors her services specifically to each client using her multi-faceted knowledge and abilities. Her passion for her work is clearly evident, PLUS she is one of the kindest people I've ever met. We are SO grateful to have her. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone!”
