Hayden Feinberg

Do you feel like you’re moving through life on autopilot, each day blending into the next, and never truly feeling at ease? You’re feeling emotionally exhausted, constantly focused on others’ moods while struggling to balance your own. You give so much and still feel like it’s never enough. Setting boundaries feels impossible, leaving you frustrated as you repeat the same patterns in relationships—different people, but the same outcomes. Holistic and trauma-informed therapy can help tremendously

Ali Siewert

Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.
