Nes Pinar Psychotherapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
My practice is especially supportive for people navigating transitions, burnout, identity shifts, or the quiet sense that something in life needs to change. I bring steadiness, creativity, and a deep respect for your lived experience, offering a space where you don’t have to perform or hold it all together. You get to arrive as you are, and we move at a pace that feels safe, honest, and sustainable. If you’re longing for clarity, connection, or a more spacious relationship with yourself, I’m here to walk with you as you find your way forward.

Sean Brennan
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
I do therapy for men and for couples. If you've never been in therapy before, or therapy hasn't worked well for you in the past, you've come to the right place! Since the beginning of my training, I've worked almost exclusively with men and couples on the brink of disaster. My success with clients comes from taking a direct, goal-oriented approach to therapy that will enable us to move quickly and overcome those obstacles that have you feeling 'stuck'. My number one goal is to get you out of therapy as soon as we can.

Dr. Trevor Alleman
Psychologist, PsyD, MA
Pain is an inevitable part of life, but mental suffering can be reduced. Suffering occurs when anxiety takes over our thoughts and actions. We become anxious about facing our fears, so we avoid them. We're anxious about letting others get close, so we isolate ourselves. Psychotherapy offers way out of these avoidant patterns. While we can't prevent difficulties and tragedies, we can learn to manage our emotional reactions to external events and relationships. Self-empowerment comes from finding the courage to confront our inner world, regardless of how complicated and messy it may be.
