All clients are welcome. However, I excel in working with individuals, couples and families who experience unique challenges related to neurodivergence like ADHD, ASD, Giftedness, and OCD to name some of the common experiences that present in my practice. Most of my clients are working through cptsd, disordered eating, substance use, gender and sexuality concerns, burnout, and other life challenges that are a part of their neurodivergence.

Dr. Jeanette Mayse

You never thought you'd end up here... feeling overwhelmed, emotional, and exhausted. You may be a new birthing parent/ partner struggling to adjust to your new normal or facing sexual difficulties. You may be a high achieving woman struggling with perfectionism/ imposter syndrome or recovering from trauma/ loss. Or, you may be a BIPOC mental health provider who knows you deserve compassionate support and treatment just like your patients do. Hope, healing, and transformation are possible.

Patty Conner

I work with clients who may be struggling with big, difficult emotions due to issues such as a history of abuse, life transitions, and relationship challenges. The realization of how experiences affect us can lead to feelings of fear, shame, self-blame, anger, resentment, confusion, and powerlessness. I believe the solutions to resolving these feelings and creating change are within each of us but can feel out of our reach.

Lauren McKay

Trauma, abuse, & grief can profoundly affect our ability to function in daily life. Each individual's experience is unique to them and there may be moments when understanding the reasons behind certain emotions or reactions can be challenging & frustrating. Have you ever encountered such a situation? Through counseling, we can explore the underlying causes of your confusion & frustration, utilizing evidence-based approaches, including EMDR, IFS, I-CBT, TBRI, & the Gottman Method.

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.

Patrick Sivils

My ideal client would be someone who is willing to give therapy a chance. To explore various aspects of their life, who they are, and who they are wanting to become. My idea caseload would consist of a variety of issues, so as long as the client is wanting to be an active agent in their therapy then they would be my ideal. Their goals would consist of wanting to feel congruent with with their beliefs and how they are living their life.

Lien Chi

My clients often struggle to see their inner-strength but believe they are capable of change. Whether its identity, self-esteem, or harsh beliefs, many of my clients are able to improve as a result of the bond we create. Counseling can be an intensive and uncomfortable process, I have learned that the clients who benefit the most from therapy learn to be comfortable with the uncomfortable. I wish to help clients become their own best counselor because no one knows us better than ourselves.

Marissa Barranco

You noticed that your child or teen is lashing out and the once harmonious family that you had is now different. You see that your child is not finding joy in their daily life as they once did and are more worried or anxious. One of your biggest fears is that this will be permanent, but you can find help. Therapy can help reduce anxiety and depression and help your child find a different path and more healthier coping skills.

Angel Hirsch

The overwhelm and whirlwind of anxiety in your body and finding peace or clarity over the restless thoughts that won't let you sleep is seemingly impossible. You recognize the need for change, yet the pace is relentless, and taking a moment to breathe feels impossible. Handling problems on your own is your super power, but this time it's not working. It's time for a new approach that tackles the root causes. It's possible to face your emotions head-on and work toward resolution.

Ryan Anderson

Psychotherapy is a healing practice used to address mental illness and improve wellbeing. People pursue counseling with me for all manner of issues related to the human experience. Some of the more common examples include difficulties with anxiety, depression, grief, family conflict, loneliness, self-esteem, and addiction. I also have particular experience treating teenage boys, married couples, men struggling with anger management, ADHD, and adults living with trauma or PTSD.

Sidrah Khan

My clients are highly motivated adults ready to reflect on the past to change their future. This is the space to explore your identities and practice unmasking. Redefine or hone each aspect of you, including gender, sexuality, dis/ability, neurodivergence, racial, and career identities as well as your social identities (geek, emo, etc). When you feel more like yourself, you will feel safe to connect with others and build communities where you can exist authentically.

Kathleen De Luca

Everyone deserves a safe therapeutic space and a chance to build a life worth living. I’m here to help with both. I believe in the transformative power of therapy in helping navigate life's challenges, cultivate self-awareness, and build resilience to enhance their quality of life. My specialty is working with individuals with Borderline Personality Disorder utilizing DBT. I also work with anxiety, depression, self-worth, trauma recovery, and life transitions.

Deann Acton

I have noticed that often times creative, sensitive, intelligent people will have very unique problems in this world. They will carry around more anxiety from overthinking. They can become easily distracted and bored when they are not stimulated. And sometimes, intense emotional reactions can cycle into feelings of depression that can be difficult to navigate. I use creative interventions and positive coping strategies to help individuals find ways to be the best version of themselves.

Beth Thomas

Are you a new mom, dad, or partner, struggling with anxiety/depression or scary thoughts? Perhaps you have just been given a new diagnosis and are struggling to come to terms with it? Or maybe you are a caregiver or the loved one who is sick or dying. My clients are looking for a deeply compassionate person to help them learn new ways to cope with life's big curveballs.

Kaleigh Amaya Supervised by Gerald Pennie, LPC-S

Do you feel disconnected in your relationship? Are you struggling to communicate and be heard? Do you often wonder why you care more for others than they care for you? Are you questioning why your partner treats you the way that they do? I want to help foster connection in your relationships and find tools for effective communication. Together, we can look at how your childhood and attachment effect your relationships today, while empowering you to set boundaries and find peace.

CJ Cummins

In a world of constant change, it is easy to feel overwhelmed with negative emotions. But when was the last time you took a moment to slow down, reflect, and really process everything going on in your life? I feel when we take the time to slow down we can discover more about what's affecting us currently and what may have affected us from past events. However, if we keep pushing forward without considering slowing down or reflecting that's when burnout, stress, and even trauma can build up.
