Laurie Ebbe-Wheeler

I work with clients to help them better navigate their experiences so that they can feel more authentic and aligned as they move through the world. Societal and cultural pressures affect each of us differently. I practice in a way that acknowledges the impact of systemic oppression and intergenerational trauma on individuals and communities. I know that when you walk into the room, you bring with you experiences I've never had and I believe that you are the expert on your own lived experience.

Ben Heilveil

My clients are individuals, couples, and families seeking deep healing and growth. They may be dealing with trauma, depression, or anxiety, struggling to find meaning, or navigating creative blocks. I often work with teenagers facing identity and self-worth challenges, parents adjusting to the demands of young children, and couples wanting to rebuild intimacy, resolve conflicts, and find deeper connection, many of who are in non-traditional relationships.

Navigating modern adulthood can be complicated and stressful.

My approach is feminist, queer-affirming, and sex-positive. We'll work together to identify patterns, build upon strengths, and enrich your sense of self.

Therapy On Fig

You are an adult, teen, or a couple who are highly sensitive empaths and neurodiverse. As creatives and high-achieving professionals, you desire to heal from your childhood attachment injuries and build safe, connected, and meaningful relationships. You've experienced grief and loss, encountered massive life transitions, and carried various obvious and not-so-obvious marginalized identities. You're not looking for temporary bandaids and believe sustainable healing is worth investing in.

If you are feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or stuck in survival mode—you are not alone. Together, we will quiet the internal noise, build your capacity for the hard stuff, and reconnect you to a steadier, more rooted sense of self.

Our work is about finding clarity, creating compassion, and expanding what feels possible.

Carter Psychotherapy Collective

We work clients who want to improve their self esteem, feel better in their bodies, and generally feel less stuck in their heads.

We work with clients in a wide range of life situations, and have specific insight into the needs of artists, athletes, parents and people in high stress careers.

Lucy Cotter

My couples and individual clients have many varied backgrounds, professions, and world views. I consider my clients to be the experts on their own experiences as they teach me about their unique histories, cultures, orientations, and preferences. As a fine artist, I often work with creative clients such as artists, writers, directors, musicians, and actors. I look forward to learning about you and your own lived experiences.

Eric Katende

Reaching out for help is one of the most humbling experiences we can go through in life. In a world that is constantly pushing narratives on us based on race, gender, sexuality and/or dominant cultural beliefs, it is life-affirming to engage preferred narratives that support and empower our own values. In difficult times it is easy to feel misunderstood or lost, longing to reconnect with our own resources. My work aims for those reconnections.

Isaac Martinez

All my clients come from very different ranges of needs. I specialize in clients who struggle with mental health and with substance abuse. A lot of clients have come back after completing treatment because they were so satisfied with the individualized treatment plan based on their needs.

David Strah
