Jason Powell
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CST
I work with individuals and couples navigating sexual concerns, infidelity, and shifts in trust, desire, or emotional closeness that leave relationships feeling strained or uncertain. Many still want intimacy and connection, but feel unsure how to move toward one another without repeating familiar patterns. Sessions focus on what unfolds between people in real time, with attention to responsiveness, clarity, and emotional presence.

Forest Williams
Life Coach, ICF
If you are spiritual, but not religious and need relationship support, you've come to the right place. Relationship Coaching helps you make tangible changes in your day to day relationship dynamic so you're not getting stuck on the same triggers and repeating the same patterns. This isn't about processing in circles endlessly, but implementing tangible change so you can heal, grow and deepen intimacy. Schedule a free curiosity call.

Everlight recovery
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, spiritual certified, D.D.I.V, D.H.L
I believe that healing begins when we are truly seen, heard, and understood. My path as a counselor and ordained minister has been shaped by a deep calling to help others reconnect with their inner strength and sense of purpose. With advanced degrees in Divinity and Humane Letters, my approach combines spiritual insight with compassionate listening, creating a sacred space where transformation can occur. I work with individuals from all walks of life who are seeking clarity, peace, or healing—whether through grief, transition, spiritual questioning, or emotional pain. My goal is to walk beside you, not ahead of you, offering support that is grounded, respectful, and tailored to your unique journey.

Pattie Vargas
Counselor/Therapist, CBC®️Certified Provider, Kessler Certified Grief Educator
After facing the heart-wrenching challenges of having two of my three children struggle with Substance Use Disorder, my world was further shaken when my son, Joel, lost his decades-long battle with the disease in 2017. In the wake of this profound loss, I was determined to better understand the family experience of addiction, and have since used this lived experience to support and guide others who are navigating the isolating and stigmatizing road of addiction and loss.
As a Compassionate Bereavement Care®️ Certified Provider and Kessler Certified Grief Educator, I work with individuals, families, and communities impacted by loss. I am a Peer Parent Coach with the Partnership to End Addiction, and co-facilitate their online grief support community, and is the host of Finding Hope After Loss, Grief Support groups for The Happier Life Project. As an advocate for recovery policies, I am a California State Organizer with the Recovery Advocacy Project, serve on the RCO/RCC Advisory Committee, and was named the 2022 Architect of Recovery by CCAPP (CA Consortium of Addiction Professionals.) My book, Secrets, Scars and Heart Shaped Jars, shares my family’s journey through addiction, loss and recovery.

Rebecca Castle-Waller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
CURRENTLY ACCEPTING WAITLIST CLIENTS
Hey Survivor, are you tired of feeling guilty and overwhelmed all the time? Everyone else seems so together and you're stuck battling your past? I get it. My name is Rebecca Castle-Waller and I help badass women with trauma become present in their lives and in their relationships, so you can actually enjoy this life you've built.
Many of my clients grew up in chaotic and unstable homes where from a young age they started taking care of others. Making meals, waking their parents up for work, getting their siblings off to school. From there, you went on to take care of your partner and your kiddos while also working hard to keep everything running smoothly. Now with work and relationships and family drama and life you feel constantly stressed out and like you should be doing more. Oh, and you're doing all of this while facing nightmares, flashbacks, numbness, random waves of anger, and the like. Who's taking care of you?
Let's give you a space where you can be your messy, imperfect self so you can finally take care of you. It's time to heal your trauma, you've built an amazing life and you deserve to actually live it.

Anchorage is the most geographically isolated major city in the United States, and this isolation — combined with Alaska's extreme seasonal light variation — contributes to elevated rates of seasonal affective disorder, depression, and substance use that therapists here address as recurring priorities. The city has a significant Alaska Native and American Indian population, and therapists offering trauma-informed, culturally grounded care that engages with Indigenous mental health, subsistence culture, and historical trauma from colonial policies are an especially important part of the local landscape. Alaska Native Medical Center, Providence Alaska Medical Center, and Alaska Regional Hospital provide institutional mental health resources, while the private therapy community serves a population spread across a physically vast metropolitan area. Telehealth plays a critical access role for Anchorage residents and those across Alaska's broader geography seeking care beyond what is available locally.
