Meet Darian Newbeck, LCSW, CHT, EMDR Practitioner
Considerate, Customized Care In-person or online

Meet Catherine Rincon, LMHC
Caring Licensed Mental Health Counselor, online telehealth
I’m a bilingual, cisgender Afro-Caribbean woman, an INFJ, a mother, sister, and proud wife—but above all, I’m human, just like you. More than just my credentials, I am someone who listens without judgment, offers perspective with care, and creates space for healing. I support those who feel alone in their pain, guiding them toward clarity, confidence, and self-compassion.
Therapeutic Approaches
I believe therapy should feel like a real conversation—not a clinical lecture. If you look at the psychology textbooks, they’d say my approach is a person-centered, trauma-focused style blended with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and psychodynamic techniques. I also use Heart-Centered Hypnotherapy for deeper personal work around trauma and breaking old patterns.
Translation? I listen without judgment, I challenge when needed, and I help people figure out what’s actually getting in the way of feeling present, confident, and at peace in their own skin.
