Katlyn Nolan

I believe therapy should be a safe space and focus on creating that for people who have experienced oppression and stigma. Anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship conflict, self esteem issues, body negativity, and negative thoughts touch all of our lives at some point, but there is always hope for healing. The populations I enjoy working with are LGBTQIA2s+, ethical non-monogamist, kink community, and spiritual trauma survivors.

Brenda Korch

I provide individual therapy to adults. I employ next layer healing with many of my clients, who have already had success utilizing therapeutic techniques to target specific symptoms.  Despite this success and progress, they often still feel that something is out of alignment.  Using an integrative and holistic approach, I help clients work towards a deeper layer of healing that gets to the root of judgments and negative messages they have received through the human experience.

Brian Wilson

I provide individual psychotherapy for a broad range of adult mental health problems including depression, anxiety, work stress and relationship concerns. In addition, I have interests in trauma and PTSD, geriatric mental health, caregiver support, coping with chronic medical illnesses and insomnia. Couple's therapy is provided on a limited basis.

Alex Kawliche

My counseling service is not just about addressing mental health concerns; it's about providing comprehensive support and life coaching. I understand that life presents a myriad of challenges, and I'm here to help you navigate them. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, coping skills, relationship issues, spirituality, grief, life transitions, addiction, men's issues, infertility, or seeking life coaching—I'm here for you.

Noel Tola

Research shows that people would rather experience physical pain than emotional pain. These tough times can make us feel hopeless, vulnerable and powerless. As we know, we cannot avoid life’s hurts that leave us with feelings of pain, guilt, anger and shame; however, we can learn from these emotions. Emotions influence our thinking processes, which can impact how we see the world around us. I specialize in creating a safe space to explore these emotions.

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.

Kathryn Pavcik

I work with young adults who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of their next steps. Many of my clients struggle with anxiety, trauma, stress, or self-doubt, impacting their confidence and daily life. If you’re navigating major life transitions, relationship challenges, or just feeling lost, I provide a supportive space to explore these struggles. Together, we’ll identify what’s holding you back, develop coping strategies, and help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

Dr. Yanet Vanegas

Are you a parent frustrated with behavioral challenges? Have you researched ways to “get your kids to listen” but found limited results? Does your child suffer from crippling anxiety, or are you pregnant, postpartum, and feeling lost, sad, anxious, or overwhelmed? These challenges are treatable. I help families find solutions, develop plans, and implement effective strategies. Using evidence-based methods, I resolve conflicts, improve behavior, and enhance family functioning.

Shannon Knight

You know yourself better than anyone else – even if it doesn’t seem like it yet. I help my clients to discover (or rediscover) themselves in meaningful ways. The tools are sometimes out-of-the-box (maybe a tarot card will help you work through that difficult thought process or better understand that dysfunctional relationship), evidenced-based, and always collaborative. We’ll laugh. You’ll probably cry – but you’ll definitely feel better.

Latrice Markison

It can be difficult to find behavioral health support, and even more challenging to find the RIGHT support. Whether you are at the beginning of a journey, wanting to maintain a current course, or have tried various interventions and now want something different, I may be able to help. I provide comprehensive and holistic treatment for a variety of behavioral health concerns .

Onessa Robertson

Are you experiencing overwhelming stress, lost in overthinking or wondering am I good enough? Perhaps you have trouble saying “no” and maintaining boundaries, or are often measuring yourself up against others? Or are you weighed down by sadness and at a loss of hope, struggling with self-esteem and battling thoughts of being deserving? Please know you are not alone and there is support available. My hope is to help you gain insight, create new connections and achieve the change you want for you.

Deborah Muench

I am passionate about working with teens, college and graduate students, parents and adults struggling with depression, anxiety, burnout, problems associated with autism, life transitions, difficulties managing emotions, stress management concerns, parenting concerns and relationship challenges. My approach empowers you to become an active participant in your treatment and ultimately make you your own therapist.

Jenelle Ashley

I enjoy helping clients explore their life story and establish connections from their past with their current behavioral patterns. As we go through life, we often receive messages that having certain emotions are bad. When we experience hurt, rejection and/or abandonment especially as a result of trauma we often become overly focused on finding ways to prevent ourselves from experiencing pain. This often comes at a cost which can then often compound the pain we are feeling.

Shamika Gaskin

I work with clients from all walks of life. Military, active and veterans, children starting at age 8, teenagers, young adults and adults. I am also LGBTQIA affirming. I have experience working with Autism Disorder, Depression, Anxiety and ADHD.

Megan Santiago

Trauma, anxiety & depression from relationship difficulties leave us feeling burnt out, struggling to set boundaries & feeling guilty for other people's emotional distress. You're done feeling like you're losing yourself in relationships, neglecting self-care, and maybe even people-pleasing to avoid abandonment or rejection. Remembering when you didn't feel driven by this may be difficult. You're ready to become more secure, meet your own needs & let go of being responsible for others' feelings.

Brittany Rivers

Clients seeking a safe, affirming space to process trauma, navigate life’s challenges, and explore their identities will find compassionate support. Specializing in LGBTQIA2S+ and neurodivergent-affirming care, therapy focuses on healing from difficult experiences, managing emotions, and challenging negative self-beliefs. With a social justice and systems-based lens, clients learn to build resilience, cultivate self-compassion, and create a life aligned with their values.

Larry Green

Clients come to me to work on issues of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, anger management concerns, recovering from sexual assault/sexual abuse, and for exploring issues of sexual identity or sexuality issues. I am comfortable working with individuals, couples, and entire families — and I am comfortable working with adolescents and adults. I am in-network with several insurance panels.

JD Wright

I address anxiety, life transitions, stress, and trauma, and also welcome those without a specific diagnosis who are simply striving for improved well-being. The journey can be challenging to navigate alone, but recognizing the need for support is the first courageous step towards breaking free from stagnation and experiencing genuine, transformative change. If you're motivated for change but need support finding your path, I'm here.

Kara Anderson

My ideal client believes in growth and is motivated to effect desired change as a unified and committed team. My clients are my equal and I approach therapy as a collaborative process. Diversity is hallmark to my practice and I welcome differences across all realms. My clients immensely inspire me on a daily basis and remind me of my greater purpose outside of my own microcosm. It is always with utmost respect, humility and honor that I serve them.
