Chelsie Crilly

My clients typically feel like they are “too much”, their emotions are “too big”, and they are “too sensitive”. I invite clients to alter their thinking and believe they are “enough” through a variety of approaches (see “my approach”). My clients are usually seeking treatment in order to increase their ability to “swim in the sea of emotions”, improve relationships with loved ones, and improve executive functioning skills (such as time management, accomplishing their to-do-list, ect).

Jasper Mather

One of my core areas of focus is working with transgender and nonbinary individuals. I understand that navigating a world often dominated by rigid gender norms and expectations can be incredibly challenging. My therapeutic practice is dedicated to creating a safe, affirming, and inclusive space where you can explore your gender identity authentically and without judgment.

Amelia Jayanty

I work with clients who are looking for a combination of improved insight and practical tools to improve their relationships with themselves and others. Many of my clients come from immigrant backgrounds, and I have a speciality in working with bicultural and multiracial clients around the gifts and challenges that experience can bring. My clinical expertise includes the treatment of anxiety, depression, transitional stress, burn out, identity issues, complex trauma and post-traumatic stress.

Lilly Servera

I enjoy helping individuals who experience symptoms of anxiety, depression, relationship stressors, life transitions, as well as those who want to overcome various symptoms of trauma. Often people I work with are seeking more peace, empowerment, and healthier relationships with others and with themselves. In this, my aim is to help individuals feel more confident, attuned to themselves, and kinder to parts of themselves, even those that can be hard to accept.

I partner with folks in navigating anxiety, PTSD, substance use harm reduction, gender alignment, and other areas of concern. I tend to connect most effectively with folks who are: queer, trans, questioning, fellow helping professionals, neurodivergent, artists, creatives, highly sensitive, witchy, and/or spiritually inclined. I enjoy working with folks who practice kink, BDSM, nonmonogamy, and/or radical monogamy.

Courtland McPherson

You are feeling overwhelmed, stressed, unfulfilled. Maybe your relationship feels like it is crashing and burning. Or maybe you feel like you friend circle has shrunk or that you are the last person standing with no romantic prospects. Maybe you are a parent just trying to get through the day. You have lost motivation, direction, and a sense of purpose. You are not sure when it started but you do not feel the same. Maybe you just feel alone and the voice in your head is saying “what is wrong?”

Dr. Rona PsyD

Many of my clients see me for support with managing their chronic pain or illness. Others are looking to heal from trauma, anxiety, or burnout. I’m deeply committed to working with diverse & marginalized communities. I often meet with women of color, professionals from immigrant families, and trans and gender expansive folks. I'm also passionate about helping fellow AAPI folks navigate difficult family and cultural dynamics, or challenge the inner critic & imposter syndrome at work.

Thomas Meade

Often, our past relationships leave us wounded. The story that we tell ourselves becomes permeated with negative thoughts, low self-worth, and shame. As these feelings manifest, we become anxious and depressed. We might experience isolation, loneliness, and a loss of connection to others and to ourselves. Therapy can help us discover perspectives that create a new narrative, one in which we have different ways to manage our emotions and lead a more enjoyable life.

Catherine Ferreira-Babor

I understand that starting therapy with a total stranger takes a leap of faith. You hope that you will feel better but you can't help but worry that you wont. While I treat a variety of issues, a universal element of my work has to do with helping people see that their "problems" are not insurmountable, nor are they evidence that they are weak, stupid, or damaged. It may not come naturally to you to feel compassion for yourself but I hope that through me you will see that you deserve it.

Brian La Roy Jones

Don't you agree life should be about more than just feeling *less* anxious, depressed, angry or conflict? I'm not in the “symptom reduction” business – like most therapists. Rather my focus is helping clients like you experience MORE. Picture experiencing not just less of something but more hope, love, connection, self-control, happiness, fulfillment, freedom, confidence, affection, compassion, trust, acceptance, validation, & feeling understood. Can you imagine what that would be like for you?

Emily Pellegrino

Being part of the LGBTQ+ community can be beautiful, exciting, challenging, and heartbreaking which makes finding a LGBTQ+ friendly therapist that much more important. You might be questioning your sexuality. You might wonder where you fit in. You might simultaneously love your queer life, but feel like an outsider from your biological family or the rest of the world. Being part of the LGBTQ+ community might only be one part of who you are and it might not be why you’re coming to therapy at all.

Bear Korngold

Have you found yourself locked in a pattern of relating that leads again and again to the same negative, frustrating or unsatisfying outcomes? I help couples or individuals identify and alter these patterns, often with insight into how they developed in the first place, leading to happier and more fulfilling relationships and lives.
