Nathan Ely, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, MDiv, LMFT
I first got my start in ministry working as a worship leader and musician, and later in the private and public schools as a teacher. These experiences opened my eyes to the need for people of all ages to find healing through difficult experiences. My therapy career began in the private practice setting and then I worked at a clinic as a child and family therapist for several years before starting my own practice. My specialization and training is in working with couples, kids and families and individuals. Currently, I'm an EMDR certified therapist which is one of the best evidence based trauma recovery models for those wanting to move through painful experiences and find healing from trauma. My goal is to walk with you on the healing journey and help you understand how to have a healthier relationship with yourself and others.

SHANNON KLOSAK
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LAADC-CA, M-RAS, NCPM, DV VICTIM ADVOCATE
Hello, I'm Shannon.
In addition to being a Mental Health Provider, I am also a Nationally Certified Professional Mediator (NCPM).
Being a Nationally Certified Professional Mediator, has helped me a great deal as a mental health provider.
I am able to break down the layers of a situation or conflict with the goal of a positive outcome for everyone involved.
Four things I want you to know before you begin therapy with me:
1. I want treatment to work just as much as you do......
2. I am not judging you, and need to hear all of your truth(s) in order to best support you. You can't heal what you won't reveal........
3. I will not fight you for your healing....
What that means is: I will not work harder than you do. However, I will be right there beside you as we navigate your Mental Health journey together.....
4. If you don't connect with me, that's okay. Don't be afraid to try someone new, and keep trying until you find the right fit.....
I look forward to working with you!
