Provider Spotlight: Vanessa Stanfield, MS, ACT-Trained

We live in a world that often provides a lot of unsolicited advice and expectations about who we should be. As a clinician, I believe that much of our mental health struggles arise when we try to squeeze ourselves into boxes that weren’t designed for us.

As a mixed race woman and mother of color, I can understand first hand what it feels like to not ‘fit in’ to said boxes. However, I also know how freeing it can be to live life in a way that feels true to who you are. I believe we were all created to be beautifully diverse and unique, so why not embrace that?

As we work together in the therapy, I prioritize creating a culturally aware, nonjudgmental, and compassionate space. Maybe we will talk about who your ‘village’ includes and values that you have been inspired to adopt from them. Maybe we will discuss the values that feel true for you as the one-of-a-kind individual you are. My overall goal is for my clients to leave my office feeling more confident and empowered to embrace their authentic selves.

I love coffee and staying hydrated. As you get to know me, you may see me drinking from a mug that says “No one is you and that is your super power.” I firmly believe that. I’m here to walk along side you as you embrace that power and use it to take up space in this world.

Provider Spotlight: Dr. Nickeisha Clarke, PsyD

I provide comprehensive psychological evaluations for both children (ages 5 and older) and adults. As a neurodivergent clinician, I understand what it feels like to struggle, to feel unseen, or to wonder why things feel harder than they should. I also understand the courage it takes to seek answers and clarity.

My goal is for the assessment process to feel empowering, not labeling. Together, we work to make sense of your experiences (or your child’s), bringing understanding to patterns that may have felt confusing or overwhelming. We take time to highlight strengths, recognize differences, and identify meaningful supports. Differences are not deficits, they are simply differences, and you are always more than a diagnosis.

I approach each evaluation through a strengths-based, compassionate lens, creating a space where you feel safe, respected, and truly seen. This process is not just about answers, it’s about helping you better understand yourself, build self-acceptance, and move forward with confidence.

Whether you are seeking clarity for yourself or your child, I’m here to help you recognize your strengths, make sense of your challenges, and move toward your full potential.
