OUR WHY
In a world where mental health often defines clients by problems and insurance codes...
We prioritize connection over diagnosis.
At Therapy UnScripted, your therapist is an active participant in the work — not a silent observer. We draw from evidence-based approaches, but we don’t hide behind clinical jargon.
We stay present to what’s actually happening in the room, adapting thoughtfully as the work takes shape — because transformation doesn't happen in theory.
It unfolds in the room with a trusted therapist — unscripted.

“There is no greater agony than bearing
an untold story inside you.”
-Maya Angelou

ON FINDING YOUR IDEAL THERAPIST

Research consistently points to two forces that matter most in a successful therapeutic journey. The first is a client's motivation for change—and if you’re here, that's a sign you're ready to put in the work to build something different for yourself.
The second is the quality of the therapeutic relationship itself— that feeling of being genuinely understood—not only clinically, but on a human level. That’s why it's important you find a therapist who thinks like you, looks like you, loves like you and experiences the world as you do. Because when that kind of connection exists, the work deepens. Those shared experiences affirm that are no longer alone in this journey.
Every clinician at Therapy UnScripted is chosen not only for their professional training, but also for the lived experience they bring into the room. You deserve a clinician who will not only support you in processing your emotions, but a human being who will laugh with you, cry with you, collaborate with you easily. We understand you...because we are you.
That radical and connected authenticity is the cornerstone of the type of care we offer here—and we look forward to connecting you with your forever therapist!
-Professor Michael Anthony Nalepa, LMFT
Therapy UnScripted, Clinical Director

OUR CLINICIANS

To help you connect beyond credentials, each therapist shares Three Truths, No Lies—a glimpse into the human behind the work. Sometimes, it’s those small, authentic details that make a therapist feel familiar before you ever meet. We encourage you to explore each profile and trust your instinct—because the work begins with fit.
