Whether your struggle runs deep or is an interim situation, together we can create possibilities for you to manifest a life you love with the life you have. With support, you can rewrite your story as you embark on your inner quest of becoming more of who you really are. Our purpose together will be to make meaning out of your experiences, as well as highlight opportunities for symptom relief, expansion, and healing.

Nicole Byrne

You worry you aren’t doing things right and you’re burdened with challenges that keep you stuck. As this overwhelm grows bigger it's hard to be your authentic self, act upon your gifts, and form meaningful relationships. You shy away from taking risks and you're nervous to be real with others. Let's discover together how to reconnect with your values and reclaim the life you want to live.

Dr. Jean-Arellia Tolentino

My clients tend to be badass, kind, and maybe not know it! They are, or aspiring to be: generational cycle breakers, healing attachment wounds, or seeking alignment with one's values. Are you curious about building insight or ways to self/collectively care? Perhaps we're a fit if you're seeking a therapist who believes and works from a feminist liberation approach, has experience working towards building healthy familial dynamics, and integrates a whole-person & holistic approach to care.

Phoenix Song

I love working with Queer and Trans folks who feel things deeply and intuitively, are curious about spirituality, who are social justice oriented, and who feel a calling to bring their gifts and offerings into this world! I also specialize in supporting folx who are seeking deeper healing of trauma and oppression. I offer limited sliding scale spots for LGBTTSQIA activists, chronically ill/disabled folx, and BIPOC.

Mary Beth Schuler

I work with adults, teens, couples, and polycules. I have in-depth knowledge of the LGBTQIA2-S+ communities, neurodiversion, anxiety, depression, perfectionism, trauma, life transitions, grief, gender exploration/affirmation, health at every size, kink, and relationship anarchy/polyamory/open relationships.

Judy Huang

Do you feel overwhelmed by uncertainty or worry about the future? Are you concerned about your relationships? Are you feeling stuck, even though you’re trying so hard to move forward? Although these struggles can feel challenging, they can also be the spark to ignite positive change in your life. In these uncertain times, I provide calm, nourishing help. Change can be rewarding, even exciting, with the right support.

Abby Weintraub

I work primarily with folks who are: neurodivergent (e.g. autistic, ADHD, or other), chronically ill/disabled (particularly with autoimmune illnesses), queer/LGBTQIAA2S, sexual/gender outsiders, fat-identified and/or hoping to develop a more loving relationship with their body, sex workers, poly folks, and those in non-traditional relationship and family structures. If you've ever been told that you're too much, too negative, or too "in your head," let's talk. I welcome you exactly as you are.

Heather Buchheim

I work with individual adults, teens, and partners across monogamous and non-monogamous relationship configurations and within the BDSM spectrum. I specialize in working with fellow activists, therapists and healers, misfits, creatives, doers, and more. I’m committed to serving individuals across racial backgrounds, abilities, genders, and sexual orientations who may have been underserved or harmed by the field of psychotherapy.

Kim Stevens

I enjoy working with people ages 4-99. It's my life's greatest passion & honor to support my clients in becoming the most authentic, connected, empowered & thriving version of themselves. I support people in overcoming anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and trauma. I have specializations in supporting Empaths, Highly Sensitive folks and the LBGTQ+ community.

Kaitlin Kimmel

My practice is open to all, and I specialize in working with adults who live with disabilities or chronic illnesses. My areas of focus include, but aren’t limited to major life transitions, recovering from trauma, grief and loss, career counseling, and anxiety.

Sheila Addison

Building relationships to last a lifetime!

Daniela Sawicki Rivera

I'm a bilingual psychotherapist who offers therapy to the LGBTQ+, BI&POC, and migrant communities with a special interest in meeting the unique needs of sex workers and multiracial folks within these communities. I've worked with folks facing a variety of struggles including; anxiety, racial identity, dating, depression, loss, anger, burnout, and self harm. My clients are often ready to speak their truths, learn more deeply about themselves, and work toward their own liberation and nourishment.

Heidi Gray

Holding it together on the outside but feel VERY different inside? Do you feel gripped by anxiety, self-doubt, anger, dread, fear, or numbness? Having thoughts that you are not enough, or too much, or that you have to be perfect? There is a reason this is happening. Getting to know yourself takes time and intention - and often the support of a confident guide. You can love what it feels like to come home to your life.

Theo Kuczek

You're looking for someone who will be straight with you. You like to be educated about psychological concepts to understand and support your growth and healing inside and outside of sessions. You want someone who sees your uniqueness and helps you dissipate the shame with ways you may feel insecure or inadequate. You want your therapist to be a real person with you in session, someone who shares stories about their own experience in life if it helps you grow.

Mary Ann Dawkins-Padigela

Having trouble navigating through life? Hitting roadblocks within different relationships? Do you have doubt about your identity and worth? I am available to provide a safe, open space in which we can work collaboratively to support you in your journey of healing. I have a background of working with youth and children dealing with depression, anxiety and the throws of life.

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?”

Jamie Kellenberger

I work best with clients who want to go deep to address: • Depression, isolation, or overwhelm • Grief and loss • Anxiety • Perfectionism & inner critic • Finding new ways to cope • Difficulty in intimate relationships • Trauma • Burnout

Rebecca Scott, PsyD

In addition to the many problems that complicate our daily lives such as anxiety, panic attacks, depression, patients come to me with complex relationship issues including marital distress, divorce recovery, verbal & emotional abuse, loss of child, parent, or spouse. The holistic approach that I use will address the root problem, not just the symptoms. I offer perspective on your experience, and provide clear, concise directions on meeting your treatment goals.

Diana Teich

I work with couples who avoid conflict and feel lonely in their partnership, and those who fight frequently and find conflict escalates quickly. I also work with individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, have a hard time asking for their needs to be met and often don't understand their emotional reactions. Many experienced childhood trauma that has hurt their sense of self. Others come for support during life transitions or because they are grieving.
