Rick Brodsky
Psychologist, PsyD, MA
As a therapist, my approach is to create a supportive and empathetic environment that helps you feel comfortable engaging in the therapy process. By forming a genuine and trusting therapeutic relationship we can work together and strive for the outcomes you seek. To be truly effective, I believe it is essential that we work collaboratively to set priorities and develop strategies that are meaningful and aligned with your values. Several approaches can be implemented from my training and broad professional experience including psychodynamic relational approaches, Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), Mindfulness, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).

Allison Cava
Therapist, LMSW
This is an open and supportive space where you are welcome to be exactly who you are. Many people move through their days feeling unseen, unheard, or carrying more than they’re able to share. Therapy can be a place to pause, reflect, and explore your inner world with the support of someone offering a neutral, compassionate perspective — or simply a space to speak freely and be heard.

Rising Phoenix Therapy - Dempsey Young, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
I believe that one of the bravest things you can do is to begin to understand your own story. From this understanding and processing of your unique story, you can let go of traumas that control you, anxiety and depression road blocks, bad relationships, and overall the emotional pain that may prevent you from living a happy and fulfilling life that gets you excited to wake up to everyday. I want you to be free of that pain so that you can find meaning, excitement, and purpose in work, friendships, relationships, family, and really ALL areas of your life. You DESERVE this and I'm here to help you on this healing journey you deserve!
So what is it like working with me? Therapy should not be a one-sided conversation and I'm definitely not a smile-and-nod therapist. I want to work collaboratively WITH you and I can promise that I am as real as it gets. You may hear me swear (haha), laugh hard with you, and just be my authentic self. For you to be real with me, I also need to be real too!
I will work hard with you and to HEAR and SEE you starting your journey of healing. I work with most mental health concerns and have specialize in trauma recovery, working with LGBTQ+ individuals, relationship counseling, college mental health, and ADHD and Autism assessment just to name a few. I can usually get you in same week. Check out my website and lets connect!

Roderic Burks - Integrative Mental Health
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MS, MS HSc, MA, LMHC, LPC
I help clients build a deeper relationship with themselves by exploring the different “parts” within, grounded in a depth-oriented and trauma-informed approach. Together, we look beneath the surface to understand the patterns and experiences shaping anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles. Through curiosity, compassion, and insight, therapy becomes a space for meaningful healing—supporting greater clarity, self-trust, and more authentic ways of relating to yourself and others.

Alan Jacobson, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, Nationally Registered Health Service Provider
Taking the first step toward change can feel daunting—but the right support can make it genuinely transformative.

Alan Brandis, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., Licensed Psychologist
I am certified by PSYPACT for Interjurisdictional (Interstate) Telepsychology practice. I use HIPAA-compliant secure video conferencing, and most testing can be performed online as well. I have found that a video conference, in which masks are not needed, allow us to make more real connections than mask-to-mask in the office. Facial expressions can be read and responded to much more effectively in video conference, compared to wearing masks.

Christina Walthers
Counselor/Therapist, MS, APC
This is a space where you can exhale - where you don’t have to hold it all together. You’re welcome here as you are: messy, uncertain, grieving, hopeful, stuck, hurt, or in the middle of change. I often work with folks who feel disconnected from themselves or others as well as their own desires and needs. Together, we slow things down and listen for what’s happening beneath the surface (emotionally, relationally, and in the body).
My approach is somatic, relational, and psychodynamic, grounded in compassion, curiosity, and collaboration. I’ll meet you with steadiness and care, while also challenging the patterns that keep you feeling stuck. Our work is about deepening your relationship with yourself and others, and moving toward a life that feels more connected and intentional. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, grief, life transitions, or a general sense of disconnection, we’ll work together to understand what’s underneath and shift what no longer serves you. If this resonates, please reach out. Let's chat about how I can support you.
