Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, MFT #123769, CPT
In order for therapy to be effective, you need to trust and like your therapist. My style leans toward being both compassionate and direct. I like to educate my clients on the process of healing and personal growth to empower them to make the changes they want in their lives. Whether you're looking to alleviate your symptoms of anxiety or depression, looking for a new perspective on things, or desiring more confidence, my style adapts to accommodate your unique situation. I think it’s important to not only help clients alleviate symptoms and fix problems, but also cultivate enthusiasm for the self-reflection process and inspire their personal growth.

Maureen Backman

Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, MA, MS
I’m a therapist because I believe in the healing strength of being with: Being with our feelings, our present moment experience, and each other. So often, we walk through life feeling alone and disconnected. Therapy is a place for you to unfold and expand into a life that feels more authentic and spacious, a place for you to experience connection and transformation. Clients who work with me often describe me as warm, thoughtful, and creative. In addition to what you might think of when hear the words “talk therapy,” I also incorporate art, movement, and mindfulness into our sessions. I view my clients and myself as co-collaborators in the therapy process, and work with you to create a space that feels supportive and safe. I take a non-pathologizing approach, honoring the strategies that got you to this moment, and supporting you as you unfold into your authentic self.

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.

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.
