Emily Echeverria
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, MS
In childhood, we develop a number of coping mechanisms to adapt to the world we have been born into: people-pleasing, perfectionism, addiction, achievement, avoidance of conflict or uncomfortable feelings, codependency, etc. Usually, we seek therapy when these coping mechanisms that worked so well in our younger years are now actively harming us or our relationships, or are no longer successful in helping us deny our sadness, fear, anger, or loneliness.
My practice goes beyond symptom management and deep into the depths of the unconscious to help clients understand how unprocessed trauma and long forgotten stories are effecting their daily thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. We will use imagery, dreams, and story-telling to help you rediscover that which has been lost - hope, intuition, self-trust, confidence, safety, love. Our goal, if you allow me to travel alongside you, will not be for you to become a better version of yourself or just feel better, but instead to know yourself on a deeper level and love all the different parts of you so that you can move forward in life more authentically, whole-heartedly, and peacefully!

Daniela Bumann
Life Coach, Trauma-Informed Life & Career Coach | Mindfulness-Based Coaching
Life transitions, emotional overwhelm, difficult relationships, and inner self-doubt can leave us feeling disconnected from ourselves and uncertain about the future.
Many people come to me after years of trying to hold everything together while quietly struggling underneath the surface. You may appear “fine” on the outside while internally feeling emotionally exhausted, stuck, anxious, disconnected, or unsure of your next step.
You don’t have to navigate that alone.
I provide a compassionate, supportive, and judgment-free space where clients can slow down, gain clarity, process emotional challenges, and reconnect with themselves in a more grounded and authentic way.
My coaching style is intuitive, practical, trauma-informed, and mindfulness-based. Together, we work to better understand the patterns, stress, beliefs, and life experiences that may be impacting your confidence, relationships, emotional well-being, or sense of direction.
Whether you are navigating a life transition, relationship challenges, burnout, career uncertainty, or simply feeling lost or overwhelmed, my goal is to help you move forward with greater self-awareness, resilience, confidence, and inner balance.
Meaningful change begins from the inside out—and you don’t have to have everything figured out before reaching out.

Layla Ashley Psychotherapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Relationships can bring our deepest joy, but they can also surface painful patterns. If you and your partner find yourselves caught in the same arguments, struggling to truly hear one another, or feeling emotionally distant, you’re not alone. Many couples reach a point where communication breaks down and the connection they once felt begins to feel strained or uncertain. Sometimes earlier life experiences, family patterns, or stressors quietly shape the way we relate, making it harder to stay close even when the love is still there.
With more than two decades of experience working with couples, I help partners slow down the cycle of conflict and understand what’s really happening beneath the surface. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in relational and attachment-based work. I support couples in developing healthier communication, repairing emotional wounds, and building a stronger foundation of trust and intimacy. I’m also particularly attuned to the needs of highly sensitive people and those who want a thoughtful, depth-oriented approach to relationship growth.
Whether you’re preparing for a deeper commitment, working to repair trust after a rupture, or trying to rediscover connection after years together, therapy can offer a meaningful path forward. I also support individuals navigating dating, heartbreak, or relationship transitions. Together we’ll work toward clearer communication, emotional safety, and a relationship that feels more conscious, supportive, and alive.
