Scottie Eskelund

I mostly work with trans and polyamorous folks who are wanting to grow and improve their lives. You are good, and I believe that fear often clouds one’s goodness. So often blocks to wellness can be found in the parts of ourselves that we believe we must hide, shame, or disregard. Through shadow work and exploring the narratives that we live by, I work with my client's to reclaim their power and find wholeness.

James Gomez

As a proud Latino and member of the LGBTQ+ community, I am passionate about providing support for those who are marginalized in our society. Additionally, I am knowledgeable and affirming of kink/BDSM, non-monogamy, and sex work. My counseling approach considers the unique intersections of identity that we all hold while honoring the truth of each person’s lived experience. I strive to be genuine, non-judgmental, and unconditionally supportive no matter what a client bring into session.

Paige Harper

I enjoy working with clients on relationship issues, anxiety, adjustment, trauma, and with members of the LGBTQIA+ community. I welcome the opportunity to work with individuals, teens, couples, families, and children. My history working in community health settings with children experiencing behavioral issues and developmental disorders continues to inform my practice as a clinician. I have worked closely with families undergoing lifestyle transitions and young adults entering college.

Kyla Dannelke

When I first meet with people, some of my first questions I might ask are: - What made you hit the "Search therapists" button? - Do you have difficulty making decisions? - Feel stuck or lost when it comes to your direction in this busy life you've got going on? - Do you feel like things are just simply, unmanageable? I want my clients to feel at home in my office and talking to me about all of these questions, the way you feel comfortable talking to your closest friends and confidants.

Erin Runt

I push people to connect more deeply with one another, and to understand more about what they need and desire from each other. Clients tell me that my ability to hold space for each of their perspectives and “translate” their experiences to one another helps them overcome the barriers they feel in communication. I am most successful with clients who want to increase their understanding of their situation, who are willing to change and grow, and who are open to being accountable.

Samire Qosaj

Are you an immigrant or a first-generation American navigating the intricate intersection of culture, religion, and identity? I am a first generation Muslim American. Albanian is my first language, and I am happy to work with clients in Albanian. English is my second language. I have tackled my own issues around identity with religion and the western world, and continue to do so as I navigate my own intersectionality.

Amy Springer Robinson

Maybe you have been living with depression and anxiety or feeling outcasted in life for as long as you can remember. Perhaps you're an adult who was recently given or self-diagnosed as neurodivergent. You could be an individual or couple seeking out new ways to build and maintain healthy intimacy or looking to explore your varying personal and sexual identities. No matter what brings you to therapy, I firmly believe that human connection is at the center of each of our lived experiences.

Are you ready to build a more authentic life for yourself in 2025, one that reflects your growing sense of who you are? I specialize in working with clients exploring neurodiversity, autism, "giftedness", creativity, ADHD, queerness, relationships, perfectionism, gender, anxiety, and depression. I utilize an eclectic style tailored to each client, with experience in creating lasting, meaningful changes for folks who have previously had difficult therapeutic experiences or are new to therapy.

Katherine Work

I am especially helpful for people who struggle with anxiety or self-esteem issues. If stress management matters to you, then I’m your gal. To me, it is important that therapy is not just about talking: it is also about taking action. You are dealing with specific problems. We will try specific approaches to work on them while learning and practicing adaptive strategies that you can utilize for the rest of your life.

Karla Rennhofer

Clients whom I’ve worked well with are often experiencing issues such as relationship problems, work stress/burnout, life transitions, low self-esteem, emotional abuse/neglect, childhood trauma/injuries, work/secondary trauma, anxiety, depression, and self-sabotaging behaviors. I've worked with creative people, such as writers and actors, to help bring their work to fruition. I also work with people in the medical/mental health/health fields, and those that work in high-tempo environments.

Jessica Ryan, Psy.D.

When we find ourselves held back or stuck in life, it can be difficult to see another way. We may go through the motions of each day, but know deep down that we feel unhappy, anxious, vulnerable, scared, and hurt. Our history, identities, and relationships are key to understanding why we feel stuck, and how we can feel free. I am committed to helping you feel free to be your authentic self, to choose what you want in life, and to let go of or make peace with the things that no longer serve you.

Travis Musich

I specialize in serving individuals who feel disconnected from themselves and others due to traumatic experiences or mental health issues like anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship struggles. My ideal clients are seeking a judgment-free space to explore their inner world and process emotions that feel overwhelming or unclear. My expertise is creating a calm, empathic environment for you to develop self-awareness, find relief, and embrace all of your authentic self.

Specific issues I have knowledge treating include anxiety, depression, grief over loss, low self-worth, eating disorders, negative body image and interpersonal issues within families and intimate relationships. I am in the process of learning about NPD in order to help victims of narcissistic abuse and neglect to heal and end those patterns of abuse.

Rebecca Esser

Are you often feeling like your past is in your present? Impacting everything from your ability to cope with day to day stressors to romantic relationships or even your relationship with yourself? I know that very feeling. Feeling as though you have healed from past experiences only to have them show up unexpectedly in different ways impacting how you move forward in life. This can often leave clients anxious, depressed and scared of the future. I want clients to know they can heal!!!
