Kristen Jackson Banister
Counselor/Therapist, M.A. LPC SEP
My approach to therapy is somatic, holistic, and relational. This means we don’t just talk about your challenges—we work with how they live in your body, your nervous system, and your patterns of relating to yourself, to the world, to the people around you.
I help people move through anxiety, depression, self esteem struggles, trauma, and other life challenges by helping them to reconnect with their internal sense of clarity and stability. Together, we create space for you to slow down, feel supported, and begin to respond to life with more choice and self-trust. Therapy with me is warm, engaged, and grounded in real change—not just insight.

Samantha Kingma
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, LMFT
Overthinking, overanalyzing, ruminating, future-tripping, or analysis paralysis—whatever you call it, it can really keep you stuck. If you've been lying awake at night thinking through all the things you said today (or last year), if you've made 8 different to-do lists for the same task, or if you're always running late because it's difficult to organize your thoughts, let's chat. Anxiety, OCD, perfectionism, and burnout can significantly impact the way your brain handles the stress of day-to-day life. But there is hope – you don’t have to stay stuck. I'd love to talk to you about how you can begin to feel like yourself again. It is possible to feel like yourself again, and I'd love to talk to you about how you can get there. I provide specialized support for individuals and couples dealing with anxiety, OCD, trauma, and relationship difficulties. I will work with you to find the patterns in your life that may be causing problems and then collaborate with you to find new options and restorative solutions. You don’t have to walk through this difficulty alone, and I’d be honored to support you as you move toward healing. Visit my website or fill out the contact form to schedule a free phone consultation, and we can chat about what you’re looking for and whether I might be the right fit for you.

Karen Baumstark, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., CMHIMP, CTACC
In searching for a therapist, you are taking the first step in what could be the most important journey of your life. It is definitely possible to make important, lasting improvements in your life and levels of happiness, satisfaction, and success. Therapy is often an effective way to attain these goals. With almost 40 years of experience working as a counselor and then a psychologist, I am well-qualified to help you identify what is standing in the way of increased life satisfaction, and help you effectively work towards your goals. People often get stuck in old patterns that make them unhappy, want to change them, but don't know how. I work together with my clients to understand how old patterns in thought, feeling, and behavior got established, and then explore how best to change those patterns. I enjoy doing longer term, deeper work with clients, to create significant, meaningful, and lasting change. I often employ a holistic approach, exploring personal history, thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and relationship history and issues, as well as issues including medical history, self-care habits, and experiences of spirituality. I view the therapy relationship as a partnership, respecting the pace and timing that the client requires.

Elinor Nygren Szapiro
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA LPC, EMDR II, Brainspotting Certification, Hypnotherapy
I can help you get to the heart of your issues and make the lasting changes you’re longing for. Old patterns dissolve and new possibilities open up. My style is heartful, compassionate, down to earth and perceptive. When sitting with a client, I see ‘myself’ in them, and can feel what it’s like to be in your shoes. I’m then able to clearly sense exactly what is the most effective way to support you, in each moment. Having been in practice over 40 years, I'm a seasoned therapist and have the tools and experience to help resolve whatever is 'up' for you. In addition to talk, I use Brainspotting; EMDR; Body Centered therapy; Meditative approaches and Hypnotherapy.
