Internal Family Systems
Kim Gengler
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Do you often feel “unworthy,” “not good enough” or like “there’s something wrong with me?” Are you stuck in self defeat? If this sounds familiar, I’m here to help. I support people who want to live bigger and brighter, but have struggled with self-esteem, sexual assault/abuse, PTSD, and body-image issues. By showing you how to bring compassion to these issues, and the overwhelm they cause, I can help you learn to love yourself and others for a more satisfying life.

Psychologist, Ed.D., LP, LBA, LMHC
Our journeys into the mental health field began from places of deep empathy. Witnessing the impacts of unaddressed mental health challenges within our communities ignited our shared passion to make a difference. This inspired our desire to create spaces where individuals and families can access the personalized, whole-person care they deserve.

Jillian Luz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, ATR
I work from a non-pathologizing lens and strive to support my clients in exploring what past or current traumatic experiences, including personal/specific, cultural, and systemic, may be currently impacting their self-view and functioning.
I offer a trauma assessment, EMDR treatment, and IFS to support processing past trauma (including chronic and childhood traumas) and grief & loss that may be causing current distress, unhappiness, relationship challenges, negative beliefs about one's self or abilities, and a lack of personal fulfillment.
