Brie Chandler
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
You may be feeling lost, anxious, and don't know why everything that used to work to feel better isn't now. Maybe it feels like your relationships are suffering, like you've never even had a healthy one, or could never share your desires with your partner or partners. Every little thing added to your plate feels so overwhelming and it might be easier just to shut down or hide parts of yourself. You might worry you're "too much" or feel like you can't do anything right. You tell yourself "no one could ever understand or accept me," or "everyone has childhood stuff, I'm fine," ...right? One thing you’re sure of is you want to feel better, safe, and like you have direction. You’re ready to have quality relationships and leave behind old patterns. Most of all, you’re ready to feel good enough and embrace all parts of your identity.

Carter Doyle
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP-BC, EMT-P
I work with adults who feel worn down by trauma, spiritual or religious harm, and identity-related stress. Many clients arrive feeling “functional” but internally stuck in fear, shutdown, shame, or exhaustion. My office is a place to bring the real story without needing to minimize it.
I’m a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who blends psychotherapy with careful, collaborative medication support when useful. Sessions often include parts work informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS) and EMDR principles, with practical skills from ACT to help you move toward values, not just symptom control. I welcome LGBTQ+ clients and people recovering from SOGICE experiences with special care and respect. We move at your pace and build change meant to last.

Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
I have a passion for helping clients reduce anxiety, stress, confusion, sadness, and pain - so that they can live more fulfilling, authentic, and happy lives. Many of my clients have stated that coming to therapy has helped to catapult them out of their stagnation - enabling them to reach their full potential. For clients who have had difficulty finding a therapist who can understand their complex and intersecting identities, I can be a breath of fresh air. I work with folks ages 15 and up.

Amy Look
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Exhausted by overthinking, people-pleasing, and holding yourself to impossible standards? From the outside, it looks like you’ve got it all together - you're thoughtful, capable, and high-achieving. But inside, you feel uncertain, overwhelmed, and stuck. If this resonates, I can help! I specialize in skills-focused therapy for adults who want real change, not just support. Our work together will empower you toward a life that's defined by your values, not your critical inner voice. I’ll use evidence-based strategies to teach you how to calm your mind, cope with stress, build confidence, and strengthen relationships. Call or send me a message to discuss more about what it would be like to work together.
