Mirjana Ivanisevic, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
In my therapy practice, I emphasize the use of empathetic listening, compassionate guidance, and a collaborative process to help my clients meet their goals for therapy. I use a combination of active listening, validation, and challenging unhealthy patterns to help clients develop insight into the psychological underpinnings of their distress, we couple this with strategy building to use healthier coping strategies to improve their quality of life. I emphasize solution-focused strategies (e.g., skill building, cognitive and emotional processing) to introduce healthier coping strategies, strengthen their psychological health, and improve their quality of life.

Dr. Nichole Vincent
Psychologist, PsyD
You’ve been pushing, pulling, and trying your damnedest to hold it all together. But let’s be real – deep down, you know something’s gotta give. Life wasn’t meant to feel this hard, this stuck, this… much.
And if you’re being honest? You’re SO over it.
Here’s the truth: you’re not broken. You’re navigating a world that doesn’t always make it easy to thrive. But that doesn’t mean you can’t reclaim your power, find your flow, and create a life that feels exactly right for YOU.
Let me guess…
• You’re caught in relationships that leave you feeling unseen, unheard, and unfulfilled.
• Your brain races at night like it’s training for a marathon – replaying every conversation, obsessing over
what you “should’ve” done, or worrying about what’s next.
• Your to-do list owns you. You make them, you lose them, and even when you cross things off, you still feel
like you’re falling short.
• Every day feels like you’re stuck on autopilot, and you can’t help but wonder: Is this it?
• You’re holding your sh*t together on the outside but are so effing drained on the inside.
• You thought you’d buried it, but those old painful memories still find ways to show up and shake your
foundation.
• You don’t let anyone in because you don’t want to “burden” them with your struggles.
What if it doesn’t have to be this way?
Therapy With Me Is More Than Just Talking – It’s About Transforming
I’m here to shake things up. To get to the root of what’s really holding you back – the stories, patterns and cycles that keep you stuck – and disrupt the sh*t out of them. To help you stop spinning your wheels and start moving toward a life that feels good.
You deserve a life that feels aligned with who you are – not just who you’re “supposed” to be. I’m here to help you:
• Finally figure out why you keep saying yes to less and start asking for (and getting) what you deserve.
• Turn off the mental replay and get the deep, restorative rest you’ve been craving.
• Stop letting your to-do list define your worth – and start finding joy in your days again.
• We’ll figure out what you really want and how to get it. Yes, even the big, scary, “am I allowed to want this?”
stuff.
• Heal the sh*t from your past so it doesn’t keep showing up in your present.
• You’ll feel free to show up fully as yourself. No more shrinking, silencing, or second-guessing.
You’re worthy of a life that feels spacious, joyful, and ease-filled – and I’m here to help you create it.
It’s Time to Step Into Your Mentally “Well-thy” Life
You’re not here to settle. You’re here to thrive. To rise. To reclaim what’s been waiting for you all along. And while this journey might feel scary, overwhelming, or even impossible right now, I promise you this: I’ll meet you where you are, but I won’t leave you there.
I see you. I’ve got you. Let’s do this.

Jennifer L Abel
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I've devoted my career to helping people effectively manage anxiety. Most of the tools you will learn are quick and easy strategies that require very little time out of your busy schedule. You'll learn why your prior methods have failed and what to do differently.
A unique service I provide is allowing you to answer three pages of questions and anything else you want me to know, prior to our first session. I read that, write it on paper, sometimes research (e.g. medications or disease), such that I know you pretty well before we even meet. This gives us a great head start before we meet!

Dr. Olivia Blandford
Psychologist, Ph.D.
The COVID crisis struck near the end of my formal training, which afforded me the opportunity to extensively train in the delivery of quality therapy using virtual technologies.

Whether you are down the street or hundreds of miles away, trust that you will feel the same warmth, connection, and attention from me over video as you would face-to-face.

Dr. Jennifer McManus
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist, PLLC
Does this sound familiar? You want to feel peaceful and content, but instead you are feeling: overwhelmed by stress, totally burned out, or even debilitated by anxiety. It’s been hard for you to manage the emotional toll of constant and often unrealistic demands. You can rarely find a moment to stop and catch your breath. Each day feels like you are being stretched a bit thinner and you wonder how much you have left to give. Life doesn’t have to go on this way. Hi, I’m Dr. Jennifer McManus and I help ambitious women find relief from stress, burnout, anxiety, and deep emotional pain. It is my mission to provide scientifically informed psychotherapy without sacrificing compassion and genuine concern.
