Amenah Arman
Counselor/Therapist, MS-CLINICAL MENTAL HEALTH COUNSELING, Nationally Certified Counselor
Do you feel misunderstood and othered often? Have you tried therapy in the past and found that it was another space in which you had to explain yourself? Do you find it challenging to trust that someone would get "IT"? Rest assured you are not alone, and it is for that very reason that I created Sane in the Membrane. This practice was created for those who feel othered in their own lives.

Allison Cordts - Sunrise Therapy for Mental Health
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.A., LPC
i have been a licensed therapist providing therapy since 2014. As all therapists will tell you, this career is very rewarding and most of us love what we do - helping people. What makes me different is I am laser-focused on helping each and every client learn their own personal power and how they can replace sadness and fear with joy and fulfillment. We'll do this by addressing your past trauma's, family dysfunction, as well as distorted thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that developed as a result of growing up and older in unhealthy relationships. Gaining awareness, changing these patterns, and learning effective coping skills, is key to stopping anxiety and depression (most common struggles) and any other issues that may be robbing you of the life you so desperately want and deserve. In addition to focusing on mental health, I'm currently working on another degree to get certified as a holistic practitioner, so I have a wealth of information regarding natural healing and steps toward physical wellness if a client wants or needs that type of information and support.

Elizabeth Banerjee
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
The first questions I often hear from new clients is - are you going to judge me? I have worked with clients from all backgrounds and experiences, and I will never judge you for who you are or what you've been through. Likewise, I'll never be offended if you tell me a particular tool isn't working for you or there's something else you'd like to try. Therapy is a partnership, and we'll work together to find the tools and insight you need to reach your goals.

Palmer McCluskey, LPC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
I am very passionate about helping other people as I believe that every person is inherently valuable and worthy of living a meaningful and balanced life.
As a therapist, I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental environment for my clients. Much of my clinical experience includes working with adults and adolescents who struggle with addiction, depression, and anxiety. I also enjoy working with those who are simply in the process of adjusting to challenging life circumstances and events (i.e., the loss of a loved one, starting a new job, coping with a global pandemic). In all of these cases, I believe that change and healing take place in the context of relationships with others, and I consider it a privilege to cultivate therapeutic relationships with people who are working towards making meaningful changes.
I draw from several theories of psychotherapy, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and person-centered therapy. As a clinician who also has an educational background in theological studies, I integrate spirituality and spiritual formation into counseling when desired by clients, always with the intention of helping clients achieve their goals.

Counselor/Therapist, MS, NCC, LAPC, RPT

Eve Ruby
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW
Wherever you’ve been, however you’ve arrived, I’m glad you are here.
To me, therapy is about taking time and space to listen to our bodies and emotions, with the hope of allowing us to reconnect with our inherent wisdom. We don't lose touch with this wisdom by accident. Trauma, unhealed wounds, and oppression separate us from our wisdom and intuition, and impact our ability to access all parts of ourselves. You and your body carry so much, from the grief and resilience of those who came before you, to the stress of everyday life. You were never meant to carry it all on your own.

Amber Creamer
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Are you a woman that looks like they have it all together on the outside, but on the inside you feel like you are struggling to hold things together? You pride yourself on being able to do all the things- excel at your career, manage family responsibilities, maintain an active social calendar, and more- but you have lost sight of what you actually enjoy doing. Your life is far from what you envisioned and you are unsure of where to start to get things back on track.
Or maybe you are a woman who experienced something that has been hard to leave in the past. You’ve been trying to hold onto moments of normalcy because it allows you to downplay what happened. In order to feel safe you have sought out control and predictability in your life and relationships. You are afraid of what will happen if you “open the door” to the past although you desperately want to live a life that isn’t shaped by what you have experienced, but you don’t know where to start.
Whether you are dealing with struggles with anxiety, perfectionism, or trauma, I will be with you every step of the way. I create a safe, non-judgmental space where every woman I work with can feel seen, heard, and valued. I will utilize my knowledge, training, and expertise to help you develop the necessary comping skills and accomplish your goals. Through our work together I want to help you learn to live your life more authentically, learn to quiet your inner critic, and live your life boldly without second guessing so you can cultivate a life you love.

Kristine Berard-Whitfield
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
I hold a Masters of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Georgia. As a clinician, I have worked in both family counseling and holistic wellness settings.
My areas of specialty are Individual Therapy, Teletherapy, and Hypnotherapy. I work with a variety of different concerns women face, such as Trauma, Adjustment Issues, Anxiety, Depression, Grief, Shame, Obsessive/Compulsive Disorder (OCD), and Health/Caregiver concerns. My theoretical approach utilizes the underpinnings of Cognitive Behavioral Theory, while incorporating perspectives and interventions from Narrative, Feminist, and Existential Theories.
Our work together is designed to be collaborative, emotionally supportive, and dynamic. We will explore the fundamental elements in your life, with a focused respect for the meaning you have made of your experiences. We will look for creative new ways for you to define, manage, and overcome obstacles. The guiding principle of our work will be empowering you to heal and flourish.
In addition to being an LPC, I am also a certified hypnotherapist. For clients interested in exploring hypnotherapy, the process of guided relaxation and subconscious awareness can be used to encourage healthy habits, reduce anxiety, or shift emotional blocks. Hypnosis is the intentional setting of your internal compass, and it can be a powerful tool toward self-determination.

Andrea Bryant
Pre-Licensed Professional, Mdiv
Life is challenging. This world can be hard. Relationships can be confusing. We all need a safe place for authentic exploration, questioning and growth. This time and space can lead to a greater understanding of ourselves, and how we can more easily navigate in the world and within our relationships. Reaching out to begin therapy is a brave decision. For some, it can feel foreign, scary and completely unfamiliar. It is my life’s work and passion to create a safe space for you; a listening ear that offers therapeutic solutions. You don’t have to figure it out alone. Seeking therapeutic help is not a sign of weakness, but a sign of strength. Welcome to your journey, I am honored and humbled to journey with you.

Kelly Baez
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC
Hi, my name is Kelly, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified First Responder Counselor, and have advanced training in EMDR. I help veterans, first responders, and others process stressors and trauma more efficiently using EMDR.
I offer both group and individual Intensives for those wanting to work through traumatic experiences in a short amount of time so they can move forward with their lives more quickly. That said, Intensives are not for everyone, so I offer EMDR sessions in the traditional weekly/biweekly approach as well. Don't feel like EMDR is a good fit? No worries, I have over 17 years of experience providing "talk therapy" so if you'd prefer, we can always talk it out.
To get the ball rolling and ensure that working together is a good fit, I offer a free 15-minute consultation - I look forward to hearing from you!
