Adam Tartaglia
(Therapy Team)
"At Lifespan, clinicians thrive in a sophisticated group practice featuring close-knit team collaboration, shared expertise, and comprehensive backend support for administration, billing, and marketing. This allows you to concentrate fully on outstanding client outcomes. I enjoy the flexibility of input over my own schedule, which allows me to maintain solid work-life harmony. The Lifespan community is supportive, collaborative, and drama-free. Leadership is committed to developing leaders in the therapeutic field, beginning with supervision that focuses on clinical skills, goal-oriented meetings, and open communication. I highly recommend Lifespan Counseling to both new and seasoned therapists. If you are looking to grow as a therapist while being part of an amazing team, come work with us."
Tami Lang, LIMHP
(Clinical Manager)
"Since starting at Lifespan, I’ve grown in ways I didn’t fully expect. Coming out of school, I had the foundation, but Lifespan gave me the space, support, and encouragement to really find my confidence as a therapist and as a professional. Knowing that I can always reach out with questions and actually get thoughtful, timely responses has made such a difference. It’s helped me feel grounded, supported, and not alone in the work.
One of the things I’ve appreciated most is the access to ongoing training. There’s always an opportunity to strengthen your skills and learn something new, which keeps me growing and excited about the work. It’s not just about checking boxes—it’s about becoming a better clinician for the people we serve.
The culture here is truly values-driven. You can feel it in the way people show up—for clients and for each other. There’s a deep respect for the work we do, and that really matters. I’ve always felt like I’m part of a team that shares a purpose and cares about making a difference.
For anyone considering joining Lifespan, I’d want them to know that this is a place where you can grow—not just in your career, but in your confidence, your skills, and your sense of self as a helping professional. The flexibility in scheduling, the openness to collaboration, and the consistent support at all levels make it a special place to do this work."
