Hattie Bluestone
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
You may be coming to therapy feeling stuck and exhausted by patterns you can’t seem to change—anxiety, self-criticism, difficulty connecting with others, or pushing through emotions rather than fully experiencing them. Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy offers a different approach. Rather than fighting against these parts of yourself, we turn toward them with curiosity and compassion, seeking to understand how they developed and the ways they have tried to protect you. Often, the patterns causing difficulties today began as creative adaptations to earlier challenges. When these parts feel understood, something naturally softens, creating the conditions for meaningful and lasting change. Beyond symptom relief, IFS can help you feel more grounded, connected, and at ease within yourself, allowing you to move through life with greater confidence, authenticity, and emotional freedom.

Soma Aloia, SoulWork Somatics & Somatic Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCST, HES
Healing isn't about fixing what's wrong with you - there is nothing wrong with you. Healing is permission to your nervous system to experience the safety, support, and connection it may have missed earlier in life. When the body begins to feel safe, many symptoms that once seemed unrelated can begin to make sense. Then you begin to heal and develop into your full potential. I create a safe space for you to slow down, settle, and be yourself. I help you make sense of complex experiences that seem disconnected so you can heal into wholeness.

Katie Blake
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I work with individuals and couples who are feeling the lasting effects of past trauma and are ready to begin the healing process and move forward. With more than 12 years of experience treating complex trauma (C-PTSD), I bring extensive knowledge and care to this work. I am certified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and am trained in Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS). I consider both approaches to be highly effective in addressing and resolving trauma.
As a trauma-informed therapist, I prioritize creating a safe and supportive environment, moving at a pace that feels comfortable for you. Throughout our work together, I offer compassion, guidance, and steady support.
