Narrative
Melanie Lewis
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
There is healing in sharing your story in a way that feels safe, where you don't need to censor yourself and you don't need to worry about how it's being received. I am passionate about creating a space for you where you can be honest and open about what's holding you back in life, so we can together find the way to move you to where you'd like to be. Therapy is a collaborative process where we figure out what will be most helpful at this point of your journey. I adjust my approach according to what you bring to therapy, your past experiences, and what you feel that you need. But what stays the same, is how we work together so that you can overcome what holds you back in life, and move toward the life you want.

Christine Henry
Psychologist, Ph.D
As a neurodivergent therapist, I enjoy working with adults who are exploring or have recently discovered that they are ADHD, autistic, or both. We can find ways to adapt the world to better suit you instead of trying to fit into neurotypical standards. Learn how to improve your connections with others, strategies to regulate emotions, increase motivation, find more fulfillment at your job,
and even experience moments of joy. I also specialize in grief, childhood, and religious trauma.

Dr. Tinatin Surguladze
Psychologist, PhD
Are you in emotional pain? Do you feel stuck and unsure of what your next steps should be? I believe that you have the resources to change, to self-actualize, and that you want your life to be meaningful. In order to activate these resources, I focus on values work to help you become more aware of what matters most to you. We will work together to shift your focus from your current suffering to the present moment. We will also address your avoidance and I will challenge you to try things differently, in ways that align with your values. I believe that you drive your healing process, and I serve as a catalyst.
