Palmer McCluskey, LPC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
I am very passionate about helping other people as I believe that every person is inherently valuable and worthy of living a meaningful and balanced life.
As a therapist, I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental environment for my clients. Much of my clinical experience includes working with adults and adolescents who struggle with addiction, depression, and anxiety. I also enjoy working with those who are simply in the process of adjusting to challenging life circumstances and events (i.e., the loss of a loved one, starting a new job, coping with a global pandemic). In all of these cases, I believe that change and healing take place in the context of relationships with others, and I consider it a privilege to cultivate therapeutic relationships with people who are working towards making meaningful changes.
I draw from several theories of psychotherapy, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and person-centered therapy. As a clinician who also has an educational background in theological studies, I integrate spirituality and spiritual formation into counseling when desired by clients, always with the intention of helping clients achieve their goals.

Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
My goal as a therapist is to create a safe non-judgemental space for all clients, especially clients who may not click with other therapists such as LGBTQ+, gender diverse, polyamorous or non-monogamous, and kink practicing clients. During our sessions you can be your true self. You don't have to mask with me or hide things about you that you think are weird or unlikeable. Ideally I can help you learn to like those aspects of yourself. You never have to hide important parts of your identity with me because I will never judge you for any reason.

Eve Ruby
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW
Wherever you’ve been, however you’ve arrived, I’m glad you are here.
To me, therapy is about taking time and space to listen to our bodies and emotions, with the hope of allowing us to reconnect with our inherent wisdom. We don't lose touch with this wisdom by accident. Trauma, unhealed wounds, and oppression separate us from our wisdom and intuition, and impact our ability to access all parts of ourselves. You and your body carry so much, from the grief and resilience of those who came before you, to the stress of everyday life. You were never meant to carry it all on your own.

Allison Cordts - Sunrise Therapy for Mental Health
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.A., LPC
i have been a licensed therapist providing therapy since 2014. As all therapists will tell you, this career is very rewarding and most of us love what we do - helping people. What makes me different is I am laser-focused on helping each and every client learn their own personal power and how they can replace sadness and fear with joy and fulfillment. We'll do this by addressing your past trauma's, family dysfunction, as well as distorted thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that developed as a result of growing up and older in unhealthy relationships. Gaining awareness, changing these patterns, and learning effective coping skills, is key to stopping anxiety and depression (most common struggles) and any other issues that may be robbing you of the life you so desperately want and deserve. In addition to focusing on mental health, I'm currently working on another degree to get certified as a holistic practitioner, so I have a wealth of information regarding natural healing and steps toward physical wellness if a client wants or needs that type of information and support.

Elizabeth Banerjee
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
The first questions I often hear from new clients is - are you going to judge me? I have worked with clients from all backgrounds and experiences, and I will never judge you for who you are or what you've been through. Likewise, I'll never be offended if you tell me a particular tool isn't working for you or there's something else you'd like to try. Therapy is a partnership, and we'll work together to find the tools and insight you need to reach your goals.

Amber Creamer
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Are you a woman that looks like they have it all together on the outside, but on the inside you feel like you are struggling to hold things together? You pride yourself on being able to do all the things- excel at your career, manage family responsibilities, maintain an active social calendar, and more- but you have lost sight of what you actually enjoy doing. Your life is far from what you envisioned and you are unsure of where to start to get things back on track.
Or maybe you are a woman who experienced something that has been hard to leave in the past. You’ve been trying to hold onto moments of normalcy because it allows you to downplay what happened. In order to feel safe you have sought out control and predictability in your life and relationships. You are afraid of what will happen if you “open the door” to the past although you desperately want to live a life that isn’t shaped by what you have experienced, but you don’t know where to start.
Whether you are dealing with struggles with anxiety, perfectionism, or trauma, I will be with you every step of the way. I create a safe, non-judgmental space where every woman I work with can feel seen, heard, and valued. I will utilize my knowledge, training, and expertise to help you develop the necessary comping skills and accomplish your goals. Through our work together I want to help you learn to live your life more authentically, learn to quiet your inner critic, and live your life boldly without second guessing so you can cultivate a life you love.

Rena Diamond
Counselor/Therapist, MS, APC, NCC, CCH
Depression and anxiety can impede our judgment, making us feel disconnected from the world around us. This can result in feelings of paralysis, an inability to create necessary changes in our lives, and a persistent engagement in negative and damaging patterns of thoughts and behaviors. You don't have to go it alone. I can support you in your efforts to change.
I am an empathetic, compassionate, engaged therapist who has been extensively trained in anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, parenting, eating disorders, and more. I use evidence based modalities, such as CBT, ERP, and DBT. I fully believe that our minds and bodies are connected, and bring my knowledge, skills, and training as a yoga and meditation teacher into my sessions with client.

Shannon Shelton
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, CRC, NCC
Are you in an unsatisfying job and dreaming of a fulfilling career? Or, perhaps you exited the workforce to raise a family or re-evaluate your purpose and would like some guidance. Maybe you are graduating soon from college or a vocational program and wondering, what now? Is it possible that you like your career or your company, but you want to level up and need some guidance. Sometimes life's complicated circumstances can weigh you down. I understand how frustrating it can be to feel stuck or confused about where to turn next.
I can help. I have assisted many clients in understanding why their career is stalled and helped them get focused on what matters to them in their work, through the use of career assessment, career counseling, or reviewing their resume, practicing interviewing, and marketing themselves through networking and LinkedIn.
I'm ready when you are. Reach out today to set up a complimentary 15 minute virtual meeting. I look forward to hearing from you.
