Dr. Christina Gerdes
Psychiatrist, MD
I am a Columbia University trained board-certified adult psychiatrist specializing in evidence-based psychopharmacology, psychotherapy, and culturally responsive mental-health care with over 14 years of experience. I combine my medical expertise with a warm, collaborative therapeutic approach to help individuals navigate a range of life events including but not limited to anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, life transitions, bipolar disorder, OCD, and substance use problems. I offer medication management and/or psychotherapy, allowing patients to receive integrative care within a single treatment setting.
I am skilled in psychopharmacology and a range of psychotherapies including supportive therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy. To begin treatment, we start by first completing a comprehensive evaluation to understand your concerns. Afterwards, we work together to develop a personalized treatment plan to meet your needs.
I believe healing begins when people feel seen, heard, and supported. My goal is to provide evidence-based, compassionate, comprehensive care that honors each person’s individual experience. I look forward to talking to you and understanding how we could work together.

Tiyahna M
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC,LPCMH,NCC,C-DBT
In a world that moves quickly and often demands more than we feel we can give, mental health is not a luxury—it's a necessity. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, or simply feeling stuck, therapy can offer a path forward. I’m glad you’re here.
As a licensed mental health therapist, my goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Everyone’s journey is unique, and so is the way we approach healing. Here’s what I offer in my practice:
1. Individual Therapy
I work one-on-one with adults and adolescents who are looking for support with:
Anxiety and stress management
Depression and mood disorders
Trauma and PTSD
Life transitions and identity issues
Self-esteem and personal growth
Our sessions are client-centered and collaborative. I draw from evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Solution-Focused Therapy, and trauma-informed care, tailoring my approach to what works best for you.
2. Couples & Relationship Counseling
Relationships can be both fulfilling and challenging. I offer therapy for couples seeking to:
Improve communication
Rebuild trust
Navigate conflict
Strengthen emotional connection
Whether you're in a long-term relationship, navigating new dynamics, or working through a separation, I help partners develop healthier patterns and a deeper understanding of each other.
Culturally Sensitive, Inclusive Care
I honor the diversity of every client I work with. My practice is inclusive and affirming of all identities—cultural, racial, sexual, and gender. I strive to create a space where you feel seen, heard, and respected.
Teletherapy Options
I offer secure virtual sessions for clients who prefer or require remote access. Teletherapy is a flexible, convenient option for those with busy schedules, mobility challenges, or who live outside the area.
Why Therapy? Why Now?
You don’t need to be in crisis to start therapy. Sometimes, just having a space to talk, reflect, and grow can make all the difference. Healing isn’t about “fixing” yourself—it’s about understanding yourself better and learning to live more fully and authentically.

Peace and Balance Counseling
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Justin Williams is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker committed to helping individuals across the lifespan build emotional wellness, resilience, and meaningful change. Based in Salt Lake City, Justin provides virtual therapy to clients throughout Utah and New Jersey, offering accessible, convenient care. Many clients begin therapy feeling stuck, overwhelmed by racing thoughts, weighed down by hopelessness, and unsure how to move forward. Justin partners closely with his clients to clarify concerns, examine unhelpful thoughts and beliefs about themselves, and regain a sense of confidence and direction.
Justin integrates evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, to help clients recognize and challenge judgments about themselves, others, and the world around them. Many of the individuals he works with experience intense stress, anxiety, depression, and persistent self-doubt that interferes with daily life. Through therapy, Justin supports clients in identifying their strengths, rebuilding self-worth, and moving ahead with a more balanced and hopeful perspective.
Creating a safe, supportive space is central to Justin’s work, allowing clients to explore anxiety and depression without judgment. With experience serving individuals from diverse backgrounds, his approach is both trauma-informed and culturally responsive. Justin understands that each client’s experiences are unique and believes their care should reflect individualized, thoughtful solutions rather than a one-size-fits-all model.
Justin understands that many clients feel constrained by the direction their lives have taken. He is committed to helping them gain clarity and a greater sense of freedom through professional support. In addition to the convenience of telehealth, he provides a flexible schedule with evening and weekend appointments to better accommodate his clients’ needs.

Dr. Mike Abrams
Psychologist, PhD, MBA, ABPP
My online therapy sessions are structures to be quite similar to in person counseling. Most clients I see remotely report that they have benefited as well as they would have in person. In addition, I have utilized Zoom and related media before COVID as I have taught psychology classes and continuing education courses online for many years.

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.
