Theo Kuczek
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, MFT #123769, CPT
In order for therapy to be effective, you need to trust and like your therapist. My style leans toward being both compassionate and direct. I like to educate my clients on the process of healing and personal growth to empower them to make the changes they want in their lives. Whether you're looking to alleviate your symptoms of anxiety or depression, looking for a new perspective on things, or desiring more confidence, my style adapts to accommodate your unique situation. I think it’s important to not only help clients alleviate symptoms and fix problems, but also cultivate enthusiasm for the self-reflection process and inspire their personal growth.

Michelle Roberts
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I help folks recover from trauma by befriending the body. Trauma is simply anything that your system experienced as too much, too fast, or too soon (or too little for too long, or too much for too long). You may find that while talking about an issue helps to an extent, that you're still looking to feel more free. If you've been feeling disconnected from yourself, or way too connected & overstimulated by everything, it's likely because your nervous system is working hard trying to make sense of your environment & experiences. Let's learn to care for your unique system as a whole so you can invite more peace into your life.
I am so looking forward to meeting you! I admire your courage in getting to this point. It can be helpful to connect prior to your first session to make sure your initial impression tells you we'd be a good fit! Reach out to me to schedule your free, 15-minute phone consultation where you can ask me any questions you like about the therapy process.
