Quinn Knox
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, Trauma-Informed
Therapy has not only changed but also saved my life. I have always been interested in psychology due to being an adoptee and growing up in a blended family of various cultures and ethnicities. My struggles with addiction and the unpredictable ebbs and flows of being in the entertainment industry was the tipping point that drove me to do some major introspection and ultimately paved the way for me to become a therapist. Seeking personal therapy helped me work through childhood and sexual trauma, depression, anxiety, impulsive behaviors, and feelings of low self-worth and my goal is support others who struggle with similar issues.
For a long time, I was desperate to work on myself so I could be “good enough” to find the right partner. However, I realized that I needed to become the person of my dreams, rather than relying on another person to complete me. My hope for my clients is to help you love yourself, and get connected with supportive communities and personal interests.

Emily Echeverria
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, MS
In childhood, we develop a number of coping mechanisms to adapt to the world we have been born into: people-pleasing, perfectionism, addiction, achievement, avoidance of conflict or uncomfortable feeling, codependency, etc. Usually, we seek therapy when these coping mechanisms that worked so well in our younger years are now actively harming us or our relationships, or are no longer successful in helping us deny our sadness, fear, anger, or loneliness.
My practice goes beyond symptom management and deep into the depths of the unconscious to help clients understand how unprocessed trauma and long forgotten stories are effecting their daily thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. We will use imagery, dreams, and story-telling to help you rediscover that which has been lost - hope, intuition, self-trust, confidence, safety, love. Our goal, if you allow me to travel alongside you, will not be for you to become a better version of yourself or just feel better, but instead to know yourself on a deeper level and love all the different parts of you so that you can move forward in life more authentically, whole-heartedly, and peacefully.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
I absolutely love this work! To me, there is nothing more powerful than the growth and healing we bring to our lives. This healing has a positive impact on everyone we come into contact with and quite literally makes the world a better place. So as painful as it may feel, and as challenging, if you are able to meet your shadows and dig up the roots of your problems, you are improving the quality of your life and those around you. Your relationships, your work, your creativity, your sense of purpose and meaning all benefit. It all starts with you and your willingness to heal.

Eric Pierson
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist
I firmly believe that having an unwavering belief in the capacity of humans to make their lives better is an important foundation of the work that I do. It is not always easy, but with the right support, and the right tools, people can make sense of their problems, and make the changes they need to build a life more in line with how they want to live.
