Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
You can’t pinpoint when it happened, but all of a sudden you don’t feel the same. You’re waking up feeling discontent and struggling to get out of bed. Sometimes, you find yourself wondering what you’re doing with yourself… You don’t feel fulfilled at all. You think you should feel great – You have the job, the friends, likes and follows from your connections… yet you still feel alone. Your inner voice is telling you something is missing.
You know something is off… but you don’t want to stay this way. You’re ready to make changes in your life. You want to feel refreshed, energized, healthy, and ready to tackle the day. You want more out of friendships, coupledom, parenthood, work, and life. You want to be back on track – like you again, but an expanded version. You want the fire back!
I’m here to help you with online consultation scheduling and services designed with you in mind. My clients appreciate my straightforward, no-jargon, real-world approach. If you are ready to feel better and get back on track, then let’s get to work. Schedule an appointment today, right now—no more waiting.

Psychoanalytic Therapy
Dr. Fernando Castrillon
Psychologist, Psy.D.
My way of helping people involves listening for and helping them articulate intimate aspects of themselves that they have not spoken and that they do not even know exist. It is both a process of discovery and invention, with an eye and ear towards real and lasting structural change.

Psychologist, Psy.D.
When you are feeling hopeless, confused, and dejected about your life, relationships, mood etc, I can help you understand what is happening, why it is happening, and what to do about it. You might need help problem solving. You might need help developing some self-compassion. You might need help deepening your understanding of yourself.

Psychoanalytic Therapy
Celeste Tomasulo
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
**Currently accepting new clients as of July 2025** Setting boundaries is hard. Saying 'No' feels impossible. You want to express your needs but stop yourself because you don't want to come across as rude or start an argument. Perhaps you have a chronic illness and are struggling with living the life you once loved due to limitations from symptoms. It's difficult to manage flair ups or even go to the store, let alone maintain a social life and engage in hobbies. Or maybe you're looking for extra support with overwhelming stress in your day-to-day life. During our initial sessions, we will explore who you are as a whole person, putting together the pieces of the puzzle that make you, you. My clients find success in decreasing the intensity of overwhelming thoughts and emotions, managing symptoms related to chronic illness to create a more meaningful way of life, and effectively changing negative behaviors that cause conflict and stress in their daily lives.

Samantha Schaefer
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PMH-C
Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or like life hasn’t turned out the way you thought it would? Maybe you’re in the middle of a big transition—becoming a parent, navigating a breakup, adjusting to a new role, or simply realizing that what used to work…doesn’t anymore. Change can stir up anxiety, self-doubt, and even grief for the versions of ourselves we’ve outgrown. You might find yourself questioning who you are or what comes next. These moments can feel isolating, but they’re also an invitation to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and begin again—with support along the way.
