Elizabeth Nims
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
I focus on supporting women navigating major life changes and stressors with compassion, warmth, and unconditional positive regard. I utilize session time to understand my clients challenges and provide them with helpful insight, alternative perspectives, as well as coping skills and tools to utilize in day to day life to aid them in regulating their emotions and increasing self trust and confidence. I enjoy getting to know my clients better and forming a trusting therapeutic alliance. I have experience in treating stress/burnout, anxiety, ruptures in interpersonal relationships, life changes (work, school, relationships), and overall helping my clients know themselves better and become aligned with their most genuine, authentic selves. I look forward to connecting with you and being part of your healing journey.

Allen Shamon
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I specialize in working with individuals and couples who feel stuck in cycles of disconnection, conflict or emotional distance and are unsure how to repair the bond they once had. Many of the individuals and couples I work with, including LGBTQ+ partners, are navigating betrayal, trauma, attachment injuries, or long standing relational patterns that feel overwhelming or exhausting. I also support individuals whose relationship distress is impacting their mental health, sense of self, or ability to feel secure and connected. My clients are often seeking a deeper sense of emotional safety and connection, and are ready to do the work it takes to heal.
I am an experienced couples therapist who has spent several years working almost exclusively with couples, including LGBTQ+ couples and individuals. I am trained in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT), an evidence-based approach that helps partners understand their attachment needs, identify and break negative cycles, and rebuild emotional connection.
Reaching out for couples or individual therapy can feel vulnerable, especially when things feel tense or uncertain. You don’t have to have all the answers before starting. If you are motivated to better understand your relationship patterns and willing to do the work, therapy can be a powerful place to slow down, reconnect, and create meaningful change together.

Whole Wellness Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
When life gets busy, it can be challenging to make appointments of any kind that fit in your schedule. If you frequently travel out of town, have any scheduling or transportation constraints, or simply prefer having your therapy sessions in the comfort of your own home- teletherapy might be a good fit for you. Teletherapy makes it convenient to make sure you're able to squeeze in that much needed time to focus on you and your healing, no matter how busy life gets.

Layla Ashley Psychotherapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Many couples struggle when conflict keeps repeating or one partner feels unseen, and distance grows even when both care deeply. In online sessions, I help partners slow down these patterns, recognize what’s happening beneath the surface, and build the skills to stay emotionally connected. Through attachment‑based and trauma‑informed practices, I guide couples toward communication that is safe, honest, and repair-focused, even when stress or past wounds are present. Online therapy can be a convenient, contained space to explore challenges together without the distractions of daily life.

I have years of experiencing working both online and in person with individuals, couples, and families. I primarily work with women and nonbinary folks, those in the LGBTQIA+ community, as well as teens, and young to middle-aged adults.

Elizabeth Essner, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
The relationship between the therapist and the client is the most important factor in the "success" of therapy. Meeting online gives us the opportunity to develop a trusting relationship no matter where you live or what your preference is about how to meet. I work with both individuals and couples. Some of the issues I help with are depression, anxiety, grief, substance use, trust and communication. I am an LGBTQ+ ally, kink and poly friendly.

Dr. Mazmanyan and Associates
Psychologist, Ph.D
Struggling with anxiety, relationship stress, or feeling overwhelmed? You don’t have to navigate it alone. At Dr. Mazmanyan & Associates, we provide attachment-based and relational therapy for individuals, couples, and families. We believe emotional healing and a sense of self develop through relationships and are shaped by early experiences, family dynamics, and cultural contexts. Therapy focuses on understanding how these patterns formed, honoring how they once served a purpose, and gently reshaping them to better support current relationships, emotional well-being, and self-trust.
