Anna DiNoto
Psychologist, PsyD, LMHC, PSYPACT - Licensed Psychologist
Dr. Anna is a neurodivergent psychologist, which means her brain often thinks faster than she can keep up with and she spends far too much time on Spotify as well as running different marathons (Ragnar Relay is her favorite)! Dr. Anna is the owner of Sandbox Therapy Group, where fun is at the forefront of our mental health services model. Here, she channels her over two decades of expertise in the field of neurodiversity to her local community, and across the USA through her PSYPACT license, by carefully curating creative, compassionate, and collaborative mental health care.

Tara Thompson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Are you in need of a supportive and empathetic listener, who can provide feedback and
guidance and will tailor treatment to fit your individual needs? I work with individuals,
couples, and families. I see clients with anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, or low self-
esteem and many other issues. I also have experience working with people who have
various addiction problems and their families. Some of the issues that people that come to
see me are struggling with are relationship problems, communication difficulties,
loneliness, life transitions, and work-life balance.
Do you want to feel happier and more confident because you have been struggling with
negative emotions and low self-worth?
Do you want to cope with your loss or trauma because you have been feeling
overwhelmed and stuck in the past?
Do you want to communicate better and resolve conflicts with others in your life?
Are you struggling with marriage problems and not sure what to do to make your marriage
last?
We will first complete an assessment and then we will work collaboratively to produce a
treatment plan based on your specific individual needs. I see individuals, couples, and
families. I have day and evening appointment hours.
I use various approaches to treatment including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT),
Trauma-Focused Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive
Therapy (MBCT), Motivational Interviewing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
(ACT), and Narrative therapy. For couples therapy, I apply principles from the Gottman
method, emotionally focused couples therapy and narrative therapy.
I look forward to working with you to reduce distress and increase well-being, to improve
relationships and social skills, and to find meaning and purpose in your life. I am
passionate about all matters pertaining to mental and emotional health and well-being. I
enjoy helping my clients to be able to identify their own strengths and to start believing in
their capabilities to achieve their goals and realize their dreams. I feel that, often, the
necessary ingredient for this to happen is simply having someone believe in you and to
walk side-by-side in the journey.
I provide teletherapy services using secure video teleconferencing for the comfort,
convenience, added privacy and safety of my clients.

Psychologist, PhD
I strive to create a safe space to reflect on who you are and what you experience, learn to relate to difficult experiences in new ways, and empower you to make choices about how you want to be. Together we build awareness, compassion, and understanding and orient you towards living a full, vital, and connected life - as you define it. I’ve practiced telehealth using secure video conferencing for many years because I love helping people get the compassionate and cutting-edge care they deserve. Even if they live locally to my practice, many healthcare providers, busy professionals, caregivers, and those with limited mobility find this a welcome way to carve out some meaningful time for reflection, healing, and rejuvenation.

Hope I. Hills, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist in NC, Authorized PsyPact Practitioner in 40 states
Although I see clients in person if you live close to me in NC, I am "authorized" to see clients through Teletherapy by PsyPact, which lets me work with folks in all PsyPact states. I see individuals and couples (who sometimes aren't in the same place!) on my platform, and there is an "ease" that I don't think people expect. My core theory approach is Interpersonal Psychotherapy (combined with CBT, Gestalt, attention to lifestyle, spiritual life and career). I use testing to give us a "quickstart", namely the MBTI, FIRO/B, and Strong Interest Inventory. I also have a list of "handouts" (You wouldn't guess that I've been a professor in Counseling Psychology, would you?!) and a model called the Interpersonal Flexibility Circle that I've developed to more clearly see concretely how relationships really work. All of these methods support our work and are teletherapy friendly. All of them support both individual and relationship therapy (even your relationship with all ages of your SELF!) I use an approach that helps people to rather quickly recognize how their "stuck challenges" and defenses have been "safety maneuvers" for perhaps their whole lives. How enlightening and empowering!

Susan Spicer
Psychologist, PhD
In my online therapy practice, I specialize in EMDR therapy as a transformative approach to assist individuals in their journey towards healing from trauma and narcissistic abuse, ultimately guiding them back to a place of self-love and emotional equilibrium. The lingering effects of childhood physical, emotional, or sexual abuse, along with the enduring impact of narcissistic abuse, can become deeply entrenched within the body, leading to symptoms of depression, anxiety, hypervigilance, and challenges in navigating relationships and daily life.
I employ a video platform known as remotEMDR, which is specifically designed to facilitate EMDR therapy. This innovative approach aims to reshape the way these distressing memories are stored in the brain, fostering resolution and inner peace. To complement this therapy, I incorporate mind-body practices such as mindfulness, meditation, and breathwork, all of which serve to amplify the healing process.
Drawing on my background as a neuropsychologist, I possess the expertise to help individuals identify their blind spots, condition their thoughts, and ultimately rewire their brains for enduring happiness and success. My mission is to provide a comprehensive and holistic approach to healing that empowers individuals on their path to transformation and well-being.

Nefertiti Nowell
Therapist, Dr.
Seeking help is a powerful step to improving your quality of life. Talking to someone about whatever your concerns are is something that almost anyone can benefit from, but many people are afraid to reach out. If you are considering therapy or coaching, I applaud you, and I really do want to help you find what you need to feel POWERFUL and help you develop the tools to have peace in your life.
I enjoy working with diverse clients, and have treated patients on the inpatient as well as outpatient basis. I began providing therapy in 1996, and have worked full time in several local hospitals before deciding to work full time in outpatient private practice. Though I work with many populations, I enjoy helping individuals with issues of trauma as well as working with couples. I work with all age ranges and have helped clients with a range of diagnosis. I use a variety of techniques, including but not limited to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and EMDR. I am also a Certified Hypnotist and a trained mediator.
