Trauma can create a ripple effect on your life, spreading from what may logically 'just be a memory' to widespread impacts; hypervigilance , negative self beliefs, frequent anxiety or panic attacks, etc. I seek to provide a comfortable landing space to process through hard memories and begin the healing process. My ideal client is open (even hoping?) to use their imagination in the therapy space!

Kevin Sprenkle

Much of my experience and expertise is in working with trauma and suicide, as they emerge in a variety of contexts. I also have experience working with issues of spirituality, mood and psychotic disorders.

Together, we’ll explore simple, effective tools to help you manage stress, regain your sense of calm, and take back control of your day-to-day life. You deserve peace!

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.

I have experience working with people of many different backgrounds (socioeconomic, race, gender). I very much look forward to meeting you, learning from you (remember, you are the expert of you), and our working together to help you go where you want to go.

Sam Rustum

Do you often feel overwhelmed by anxiety and perfectionism, feeling paralyzed by the pressure to get everything right? You may deal with a relentless inner critic that constantly makes you question your abilities and decisions, leaving you feeling like an imposter despite your accomplishments.

Dawn Leprich-Graves

I work with clients who share a common desire: to break free from the grip of perfectionism & control, genuinely connect with others and live in-alignment with their values. Many of my clients are women who are self-diagnosed/newly diagnosed with Autism, ADHD, or AuDHD, and they're ready to embrace their authentic selves. In our sessions, my clients enjoy a blend of humor & compassion, creating a space where they feel understood and supported on their journey towards acceptance & fulfillment.

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.

Joy Walsh

It always amazes me the complete turn around clients can do with the tools they already have, they just needed to discover, reorganize or sharpen a few things. Clients who typically seek me out are looking for a therapist who specializes in trauma, perinatal or postpartum issues, women's issues, anxiety or who can help support them in a significant life transition. I am excited to offer you a space to heal, learn and feel you are not alone.

Amy Brinkman

Anxiety is exhausting and can feel completely overwhelming. I look forward to teaching you new skills that will lead to relief of these symptoms! OCD is an extreme form of anxiety, and there are tools that work including ERP therapy, mindulness and more. In addition, past unresolved traumatic memories are often the root of compulsive/obsessive thinking. EMDR therapy is a way out of this. I look forward to working together to find just the right tools for you.

I will support you where you are and guide you toward becoming the person you want to be.
