Sarah Safron-Chiu
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
I offer a compassionate, collaborative treatment approach targeted to meet your treatment needs. I have expertise in a variety of treatment approaches, including psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral therapy, and Gottman couples therapy. In our work together, you can expect to gain insight into your thoughts and feelings and relational patterns, with the support of a caring, creative, and knowledgable therapist. Insight into past traumas, injuries, and attachment relationships, as well as current ones are explored in the confines of a caring and highly supportive therapeutic relationship. Whether it is strengthening one's self in individual treatment or one's relationship in couples' therapy, you will be provided with the space, support, and tools to embark on your personal journey towards healing and growth.

Brett Swords
Psychologist, Ph.D.
You’ve taken a critical first step toward starting to feel better: you are exploring your options for therapy. For this, you should give yourself a pat on the back—starting the process of reaching out for help is never easy. The next step is finding the right therapist for you. I specialize in working with people who are not getting what they want or need out of relationships (including their relationship with themselves). Many of my clients describe being hard on themselves, having difficulty forming relationships, or not feeling fulfilled by their relationships. Whatever it is that is getting in the way for you, I can help! We will work together to explore problematic patterns in your life (especially in relationships), address negative self-talk that is keeping you down, determine how to start making the changes that you have been wanting, and help you live a life with purpose and meaning. If you are ready to start working on making changes and feeling better, let’s talk! To schedule a free 15-minute consultation, you can contact me via phone, send me a message, or head to my website where you can schedule your consultation now. I will get back to you very quickly. I look forward to hearing from you!

Abby Cobey
Psychologist, PsyD
I appreciate that it can be challenging to find a therapist. I encourage you to shop around, read profiles, visit websites, and have initial sessions with a couple of providers to find someone who you can really talk to and be open with. We all have different styles and vibes and ways of talking and that's a good thing, hopefully we're all well trained as well but I encourage you to inquire if our training and credentials are confusing or not obvious.
In therapy I will be someone who challenges you. I might interrupt you at times if your thinking seems off. I will encourage you to feel and exercise and be honest with yourself and the people you love. Therapy will be challenging. Hopefully you will be thoughtful about the process and interested in making changes. I'm here to help you become the person who you want to be and love the person who you are.
