Kristina Anzell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CPSC
You are a mom who is struggling. You are used to having it all together and since baby, it just seems to be a little too much. Things are dropping like they never used to, you are reacting rather than responding and you can feel things slipping, with no space leftover for you. I know because I have been there! Come get the support you need from someone who you do not have to explain things to.

Gwendolyn Evans, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
My life mission is to create Inner Peace, one person at a time, one couple at a time. Are you anxious or depressed? Struggling with emotional or physical infidelity? Feeling lonely, overwhelmed or undervalued in your life and relationships? Are you struggling with racial or cross-cultural issues? I've worked with all of these issues and experienced many of them myself, as a mixed-race person: African-American/Irish-Apache. There are ways to make peace with yourself while walking through our world of challenges.

With over 15 years of clinical experience, I support clients in deepening self-understanding, strengthening emotional well-being, and creating more fulfilling relationships. My work focuses on helping people move beyond limiting beliefs and patterns that no longer serve them, so they can build healthier habits, greater self-compassion, and a stronger sense of purpose.
I believe growth is possible at every stage of life. Whether someone is navigating a transition, healing from past experiences, or striving toward personal or relational goals, I’m honored to walk alongside them as they move toward lasting change and a life that feels more aligned and satisfying.
