Brett Ryan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT #128956
At my therapy practice, I utilize various tools to help clients restore, heal, and move forward. I am a Certified EMDR Therapist who works with first responders, military, assault victims, trauma victims, and people experiencing anxiety. I use EMDR to help heal people with past traumas in their life that continue to disturb them.
I am also a Trained EFT Therapist (Emotionally Focused Therapy). I utilize this to help couples improve their communication, restore their relationship so that it will be fulfilling again, and heal from past wounds.

Dr. Trevor Alleman
Psychologist, PsyD, MA
Pain is inevitable in life but suffering doesn't have to be. Suffering arises when anxiety rules us. We are anxious about facing our fears, so we avoid them. We are anxious about letting others get close, so we isolate ourselves. Psychotherapy can provide a doorway out of these loops. We cannot prevent difficulties and tragedies. However, we can learn to manage our internal reactions to external circumstances and relationships. Self-empowerment comes from finding the courage to face our internal world in all its messiness and complexity.

Fiorella Chujutalli
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, AMFT
Are you tired of fighting with your partner and being misunderstood? Do you feel like you are trying your best but nothing seems to work? Do you miss the person you first fell in love with? Or maybe you and your partner are thinking about marriage but want to work on some important things first? These are all signs that you could benefit from couple's therapy.
I am a bilingual Hispanic therapist who specializes in helping couples "speak the same language" so that they can better understand each other's needs and grow closer together.
I also have plenty of experience working with people with chronic illnesses and helping them and their family reduce the stress that the illness may have caused in the home.
I get that seeking help is not always easy, but if you are wanting to start this journey towards a more healthy relationship and a life with more joy, I am only one call or email away. I am offering sessions in English or Spanish upon request. Call or email me for a free 15-min consultation!

Elaine Quattro
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Among my areas of expertise are assisting men and women to find their true strengths, improving communication in all types of relationships (including understanding the gender differences that affect relationships), providing direction with career transitions (I have a business background as well), using the power of cognitive beliefs to help with depression and anxiety, and guiding those who turn to food for comfort to gain freedom through intuitive eating principles.
In addition to being an experienced relationship therapist, I have presented at International conferences and to general audiences speaking on the topics of Couples Counseling using Christian Principles, Understanding and Appreciating Gender Differences, Mastering Emotional Wellness, and the Healing Power of Forgiveness.
I am an interactive, solution-focused therapist. My therapeutic approach is to provide support and practical feedback to help clients effectively address personal life challenges. I integrate complementary methodologies and techniques to offer a highly personalized approach tailored to each client. With compassion and understanding, I work with each individual to help them build on their strengths and attain the personal growth they are committed to accomplishing.
