Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
Luke R. Allen
Psychologist, PhD
I operate from an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) approach. A core idea in ACT is that trying too hard to get rid of or control our emotions tends to backfire. Instead of trying to get rid of unwanted thoughts and feelings, I want to help you learn to respond differently to the unwanted thoughts and feelings so that you can keep your focus on living a fulfilling life based on what’s important to you. We will work together to set meaningful goals to address your concerns–whether they relate to life transitions, depression, anxiety, body image, grief/loss, job or academic stress, or gender and sexuality.

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Teri Dunbar, LCSW
Welcome, I'm Teri. I understand that life has its ups and downs, and I am here to support you in your current season of life transitions and challenges. We all have difficult things that we deal with whether that be managing the life stresses of work, family, a divorce, a new job, feelings of depression, crippling anxiety, or memories of past trauma. I have often found that experiences of past trauma has a significant impact on our current functioning.

Sarah Easton
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
You are about to begin an important journey to explore your struggles, connection with yourself and others, and how you can live in deeper alignment with your values. You might be challenged by your intimate relationships, you may be dealing with a chronic illness, the loss of a loved one, feeling overwhelmed or stagnant. You might want to cultivate a deeper sense of meaning and purpose in your life. I believe that traditional talk therapy can be powerful alone, but integrating mindfulness of the body can more adequately address experiences in the present moment and help transform deeply ingrained beliefs or patterns. I will encourage you to move beneath words and life stories, so experiences can be felt and understood, allowing your innate wisdom to support change. I will also integrate behavioral therapies to help you cultivate the necessary skills for building a sense of emotional resilience and nurturing healthy relationships. You don't have to be alone on your journey. Therapy is a courageous act, a gesture of willingness to turn towards your inner world. Together, we will create a safe and supportive space for reflection and change on your path towards healing, growth, and reclaiming of your life.

Em Rubenstein
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I build my practice on the foundation of respecting client autonomy. I may know therapy, but only you are the expert on you. Respecting the client's right to choose their care and how they best receive support is my highest priority.

Brad Byrum
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, MBA, LMFT
Has your relationship become an angry, sad, or scary place leaving you feeling alone, hurt, and discouraged? Are you and your partner feeling lost in conflict cycles you don’t understand and desperately want to change? Many of the couples I work with come to therapy feeling just like you. I understand how much courage it takes to reach out for help and to let another person get inside your relationship, especially when you are feeling so vulnerable. If you are searching for a safe place to explore what's not working in your relationship, and support in creating solutions, I can help. My practice focuses exclusively on couple therapy. In addition to thousands of hours working with couples in distress, I have completed hundreds of hours of clinical training specific to couples therapy, including advanced training in both Emotion Focused Therapy and the Gottman Method Couple Therapy. I am truly passionate about helping couples heal and flourish.
