Dr. Meara Queen
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
Therapy should be hard. Not terrifying, but hard enough that you're actually getting somewhere different. My style is warm and nonjudgmental, but I'm also not afraid to let you know when you're getting in your own way and give you evidence-based guidance to help you understand how you can more toward what you actually want.

Haley Busch
Psychologist, Ph.D., L.P.
My life’s work is helping clients slow down and truly be with themselves long enough to understand who they are, what they need, and how they want to move forward. It's an honor to walk alongside professionals and parents navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship difficulties, including attachment-related patterns. I also specialize in perinatal mental health: pregnancy-related and postpartum anxiety and depression, infertility, miscarriage, and pregnancy after loss. I'm especially well-matched for high-achieving adults who sense there's something deeper going on and feel ready to dig in.

Kristina Peck
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Let’s be honest—life is hard. Messy, beautiful, overwhelming, and at times downright ridiculous. If you’re struggling (like most of us are at some point), you deserve a space that feels safe, supportive, and—believe it or not—a little bit lighter.
I’m a seasoned therapist who brings clinical expertise and a human touch. That means evidence-based approaches grounded in years of experience, paired with humor, compassion, and real talk. I believe in validating your experience while gently helping you shift what’s not working.
Therapy with me isn’t about judgment—it’s about connection. I create a space where you can exhale, show up exactly as you are, and start untangling what’s holding you back. I normalize the human condition because, well, we’re all just trying to get through this thing called life. Let’s do it together—with insight, laughter, and a whole lot of heart.

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.

Margie Melaniphy
Psychologist, PsyD
I have been in private practice as a licensed clinical psychologist since 2013. I earned my PsyD in Clinical Psychology and a Master’s in Clinical Psychology from the Illinois School of Professional Psychology at National Louis University. Before that, I completed my undergraduate degree in journalism at Northwestern University. I worked in magazine publishing for 10 years before returning to graduate school to study psychology. During that part of my career, I gained a wide range of professional experiences, including hiring and firing staff, managing a departmental budget, frequent business travel (and feeling its effects on my personal life), being laid off, and having to lay off others. I can absolutely relate to people who struggle to find meaning in their professional and personal lives.
After the events of 9/11 and some difficult experiences that followed, I decided to go back to school because I wanted to do something that felt more personally meaningful. I love my work as a clinical psychologist. Over the years, I have developed a particular interest in working with people with anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety, OCD, perfectionism anxiety, panic disorder, and trauma. This is a very anxious world we all live in, but anxiety and avoidance don’t have to dictate the choices you make in your life!
