Lauren Rodarte

My specialty is working with teen and young adult individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. If you are feeling overwhelmed or stuck, know that you don't need to go through this alone.

Lauren Permenter

Early experiences influence the way we act and engage in the world. Without time to reflect we can get stuck in habits and patterns that are meant to protect us but prevent us from true connection with others and the present. Together we will identify root causes of the behaviors and repeated actions that no longer serve you. We will practice being vulnerable. Clients who are serious about making changes while maintaining a sense of humor when needed will do well in this practice together.

JACINDA MITCHELL

Through psychotherapy, I support teens, adults, and couples of color find their voices and live their best lives. Whether it be anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship struggles, my job as your therapist is to create a comfortable, non-judgmental environment. Using empathetic listening, curiosity, humor, and - most importantly - collaboration, I will help you to embrace your strengths and empower yourself to find and follow the path of your true authentic being. Together, I believe I can he

Is your little one testing limits, rolling around on the floor in tears, yelling and screaming, and refusing to obey? You’ve come to the right place! Whether engaging directly in play therapy to build a secure attachment or using the extensively researched Parent Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), you can join the ranks of parents that have learned how to enjoy and understand their children while setting limits and reducing stress and frustration in the family.

I have worked with children, teens, adults, and families in multiple settings including community mental health, foster care, schools, and in private practice. Through my experience in these settings I have been able to help many different types of clients with a variety of issues. I use a collaborative approach so that together, we can explore challenges, and strengthen your ability to cope and problem solve in order to help you reach your goals.

Life can often be stressful and challenging. You’re here because you’re dissatisfied with something in your life and feel stuck. It could be persistent anxiety, excessive sadness, a difficult memory, or a relationship issue. Perhaps it has been hard to gather the motivation to make positive changes in your life. Having better control over your mood can often seem hopeless, but you CAN make things better.

Chun Mei Lam

I am passionate about working with Asian Americans, children of immigrants/refugees, and people of color in addressing discontent in their present day lives. I understand how deep systemic problems, traumatic events, one's upbringing, and family issues can all contribute to uncertainty, stress, anxiety, and dis-ease. At times, it can become difficult to know our needs, use our voices, follow our dreams, or connect to our calm within. Therapy can help us reconnect to these parts of ourselves.

Ericka Logan Moreno

My clients are the perfect combination of moody/sarcastic with a heavy dose of dry/dark humor. They struggle to show up as their authentic self because they're burdened with feeling lost, stuck, and unworthy of happiness. They compare themselves to others, experience negative thoughts, low motivation and suffer from anxiety, depression, and unresolved trauma. Despite a guarded exterior, they yearn for someone to acknowledge their pain. Starting therapy has helped them process pain and thrive.

Molly Burrets

I work with couples and women - helping them to build healthier relationships and work on common painful issues, including stress, anxiety, depression, infidelity, trauma, transition to parenthood, perinatal concerns, infertility, sexual problems, difficulty communicating, past sexual abuse, and other stressors. Many of my clients are high achieving professionals in entertainment, art, law, finance, and sport that have challenges juggling work responsibilities with their roles in the home.

I will support you in practicing mindfulness skills, creative art therapy tools, kick-starting pro-active changes, and growing self-love (cause you deserve it! - YES, YOU!)

Darshana Lele

You've survived a lot in life, but struggle to feel like it's behind you. You are usually the one emotionally taking care of others, feeling exhausted and overwhelmed, & yet never feel good-enough. Have you been marginalized? Scared of having a 'target' on your back or afraid of being found out? That's lonely but as much as you love being around others, they drain you. If you are fed up of living for others, I am someone who wants to help you feel safe, be successful & most importantly, happy.

Anthony Bishop

Most of my clients struggle with thoughts and feelings (usually anxiety and guilt) that seem to feel intrusive, distressing, and require an urgent response. My clients will make mental or physical efforts to relieve the distress but can't find lasting relief. Many suffer in silence as thoughts become too difficult to talk about. Most clients respond well as my treatment approach is specific to the individual and not just a protocol or one-size-fits-all approach.

Christopher Schadt

Whether you find yourself feeling depressed, anxious, troubled by trauma or stuck in repetitive patterns of relationship, psychotherapy is a place to explore your past in order to live more fully and more freely in your present. The therapy relationship can be a safe place to explore distressing symptoms, painful emotions and difficult stuck points in order to more fully understand yourself, clarify your values and find peace within yourself, your relationships and your world.

Kyla Winner-Connor

I have worked with clients dealing with anxiety, depression, psychosis, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, grief and loss, and more. I am certified in several modalities including CBT and IPT and integrate these with many other approaches such as mindfulness, self-compassion and somatic work. I also pull from concepts such as attachment theory, interpersonal and affective neurobiology, and the relationship between our thoughts, feelings and behaviors.

Blake Barber

Whether you are experiencing anxiety about the future or depression related to current or past circumstances, do not give up hope! This may be the perfect time to begin to discover calm and contentment in your life and achieve your potential to be happy and fulfilled.

Leandra Soop

You maybe wanting more for your life, but you don’t know how to create the change and you don’t know where to start. You maybe feeling stuck and unable to make important decisions for yourself because you are bogged down by overwhelming feelings, the difficulties in your relationships and the demands to “keep up” in life. I am here to help you unpack some of the pain and worry so that you can live a more meaningful and connected life.

Allison Carter

Do you ever doubt yourself or shy away from activities that would make your life more fulfilling? Do you ever find yourself trapped by destructive habits that you can't seem to shake? Welcome. I am experienced in supporting individuals with trauma, eating disorders, anxiety, and depression, as well as new parents and individuals weathering difficult transitions or losses.
