Aliya Amarshi
Registered Psychotherapist, PhD (Sociology)
I offer warm, attuned, and inclusive online therapy for adults navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, and the complexities of identity, family, and work. My approach integrates Gestalt, IFS (parts work), and somatic strategies to support nervous system regulation and deeper self-understanding. I hold space for the full range of your experience—without judgment—and tailor our work to what feels most supportive and effective for you. Healing, to me, is not just personal—it’s also a step toward creating a more compassionate world.

Rose laure Agbazan
Hypnotherapist, Clinical hypnotherapist, Clinical Aromatherapist CAHP
I work with individuals who look capable on the outside but feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or never quite “enough” on the inside.
My approach is rooted in one core belief: healing begins when your nervous system feels safe. Many of the struggles my clients carry — anxiety, overachievement, people-pleasing, emotional shutdown, addictive coping — started as intelligent survival responses. Rather than trying to fix you, I help you understand and gently unwind the patterns that once protected you.
My work blends trauma-informed hypnotherapy with grounded, compassionate guidance. You remain aware and in control at all times. Together, we work at a pace that respects your body’s wisdom. We focus on rebuilding self-trust, strengthening emotional regulation, and cultivating a sense of inner safety that is not dependent on performance, productivity, or approval.
I am especially passionate about supporting those who have spent years proving, holding everything together, or caring for everyone else — while quietly feeling exhausted inside. You do not have to earn rest. You do not have to achieve to be worthy. Healing is not about becoming someone new. It is about returning to yourself.
If you are ready to feel steady, supported, and more at home within your own body, I would be honored to walk alongside you. Contact me for a free consultation.

Kate E. Stephenson
Life Coach, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Holistic Life, Career & Executive
Have you made time and space for you today? Most of us haven't—and therapy isn't the only way to do it. Consider Holistic Life Coaching instead. As a certified professional coach, I am here to encourage you to take a breath, take a beat to consider who you are, where you are, and if you are feeling satisfaction in your own success. If you aren't, I invite you to have a conversation with yourself about what can be done differently—allow me to moderate that conversation. Together we can help you live into your own definition of success and begin to feel it deeply. To breathe it in and live.

Wayne Dewhurst
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, CAMFT
When life or relationships become difficult, having someone who can help you step back, make sense of what is happening, and find a way forward can make a real difference. Wayne brings a down-to-earth and thoughtful approach to therapy. He believes meaningful change starts with being able to speak honestly about what is going on and feeling genuinely heard along the way. His goal is to help clients gain perspective, have more productive conversations, and develop practical ways to move forward. If something in your life or relationship isn't working the way you want it to, Wayne offers a place to start.
