Tony Overbay
We offer low cost therapy based on a sliding scale.
I am a licensed Marriage
and Family Therapist Intern who enjoys working with parents, couples,
singles, fathers and adolescents. Prior to returning
to school for my Masters of Counseling, I ran two successful high tech
companies. I spent my practicum working as a Marriage
and Family Therapist for the Child Abuse Prevention Council helping children
find a voice, adolescents navigate their way through young adulthood and
worked with singles and couples in helping them improve their parenting
skills and relationships.
|
|
| I enjoy working with people who are looking
to make changes in their lives, people who desire to live the life that
they
have always dreamed of living. I have been married for 17 years and I am
a father of four. I write a bi-monthly humor column focusing on parenting
for the Lincoln Newsmessenger and I am an avid runner having completed
several marathons and ultra marathons. You can read more about me, and
my practice by visiting my web site, www.tonyoverbay.com,
or you can contact me via phone at (916) 300-7933. |

Leah Myers-Martinez
We offer low cost therapy based on a sliding scale.
Hello, my name is Leah
Myers-Martinez and I have been helping individuals and families as a
paraprofessional for over twenty years. As a middle-aged
woman having raised children I understand the complexities of parenting
and relationship issues and am excited about helping people navigate
the sometimes rough waters of family life. I am currently in graduate
school, completing my practicum experience. The best part of my job is
in creating a safe and supportive
environment where a person or a family can begin or continue their journey
into a healthier, more contented lifestyle.
|
|
| I have experience working
with men and women suffering from depression, past sexual abuse, domestic
violence,
pregnancy loss, and grief. If you have found yourself asking: Why can’t
I leave my past behind? What am I going to do now? Can my marriage survive?
Will my child be okay? Take a deep breath. Relax. Help is on the way…and
I would like the opportunity to stand along side you. My schedule is pretty
flexible and I have evening, and weekend appointments available. |

Tina Moylan
We offer low cost therapy based on a sliding scale.
Hello! My name is Tina
Moylan. I have been working in the mental health profession for ten years.
I have a background in Recreation Therapy and
graduated from The University of Phoenix with my Master’s of Science
in Counseling degree. I am a Registered Marriage and Family Therapy Intern
(IMF# 55738) and am currently pursuing licensure as a Marriage, Child
and Family Therapist. |
| I have had several years
of experience working with individuals with chronic and persistent mental
illnesses including thought and mood disorders. I enjoy participating in
a group setting, as well as, working with individuals and families. Having
a family of my own has allowed me to find greater meaning in all the roles
of my life. I believe that identifying and focusing on the unique aspects
of an individual, or family system, encourages a balance that aides in
coping with the stressors of life. |

Alia Ball
I am a Marriage and Family Therapist Intern working under the supervision
of Darlene Davis, MFT License #40875. I enjoy helping adolescents, adults,
and couples to improve their relationships and enhance their lives, by
offering a place to come and express themselves in a caring, supportive,
and non-judgmental
environment. I work collaboratively with individuals, couples, and families
to help them as they become more successful in achieving life goals. |
| Through
the exploration and enhancement of the client's strengths, and the utilization
of various techniques and styles, my approach is to engage the client in
the possibility of a more fulfilling life and motivate them to find their
own unique blend of happiness. |

Dezaree Finch
Hello and congratulations on your first step to peace of mind. Through my education
and 7 years of experience helping individuals and families, I have particular experience
working with people who struggle with feelings of anxiety, self-doubt, or depression, a
sense of sadness or hopelessness, feeling overwhelmed or stressed, difficulty with motivation,
concerns about relationships with friends, family, or a boyfriend/girlfriend, difficulties
with transitions, rape, sexual assault, or relationship violence, stress, trauma, or, even
just feeling that something is wrong and not being able to define it. |
|
You deserve the help that you need and I would like to help you receive
your highest potential. I enjoy working with adolescents, children,
couples, families, and multi-cultural individuals
and families, drawing from a variety of treatment approaches to best
meet each person's particular needs in a safe and supportive environment.
I approach each person, couple, and family as a unique
and respected unit. My work is based on my belief that relationships,
in every area of our lives, past and present, greatly affect our well-being
and the potential to live our lives healthy. Please
call or email me when you or/and your family or/and partner are ready
to make that step towards a healthier lifestyle and talk to someone
who will be compassionate and non-judgmental with sensitive
areas in your life.
