I utilize evidence-based interventions to help you overcome mental health challenges - whether it is due to social situations, life changes, trauma, or just something you've always dealt with - we can create a treatment plan specialized to fit your unique needs. Therapies include Cognitive Processing Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy which I combine with a collaborative approach based on your level of need, in addition to educating you on the how's and why's of each intervention we use. I believe empowering and educating people is the key to success when it comes to creating lasting change in our lives. ~~~
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. Helping others discover and become more confident in who they are so they can shine is one of my passions. ~~~
I create a safe environment via video conferencing where you can attend therapy from the comfort of your own home, in a space without judgment where you can truly be yourself.

Telehealth is delivered through a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform that allows me to provide therapy to my clients via live video conferencing.

Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Psychotherapist & Psychoanalyst
Trauma is profound: it shapes how we organize our experiences, relate to other people, and respond to life's ebbs and flows. It can also leave us feeling stuck and painfully limited. Together we can make sense of your story, identify unconscious patterns that no longer suit you, and create room in your mind to live with greater freedom. If you're looking to effect deep change in your life, I welcome you to reach out for a free consultation.

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.

Katie Blake
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I work with individuals and couples who are feeling the lasting effects of past trauma and are ready to begin the healing process and move forward. With more than 12 years of experience treating complex trauma (C-PTSD), I bring extensive knowledge and care to this work. I am certified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and trained in Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS). I consider both approaches to be highly effective in addressing and resolving trauma.
As a trauma-informed therapist, I prioritize creating a safe and supportive environment, moving at a pace that feels comfortable for you. Throughout our work together, I offer compassion, guidance, and steady support.

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.
