Elena Duong
Psychologist, Psy.D.
As a fellow highly sensitive person and recovering perfectionist, I understand how difficult it can be to navigate through today’s demanding, extroverted, and cis/hetero-normative society. In addition, I have a soft spot for those who tried your best and are often struggling to stay afloat since you were likely taught to suffer in silence.

Briana Gonzalez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I'm a Biracial psychotherapist passionate about working with BIPOC* professionals, creatives and other adults struggling with anxiety, depression, unresolved emotional pain and trauma from the past, and discouragements that has impacted confidence, self-esteem, motivation, and pursuit of dreams and passions. I want to help my clients reconnect with hope and explore ways to redefine and take control of their life so they can live meaningfully and fully!
Sometimes, therapy can be a challenge because we deal with real emotions and thoughts that we deeply feel and experience everyday, especially when those thoughts and feelings get in the way of us living the life we would prefer to live. Uncovering those thoughts emotions that seem to keep you hooked is not an easy process. But as your therapist, I commit to being a part of that process with you by empowering you to understand your relationship with your thoughts and emotions so that they don't control your life, as well as redirect you a healthier sense of control in the midst of tragedies and difficult situations. I love helping my clients reconnect with their sense of self, and would love to help you as well if this desire resonates with you!
* While my experience and niches are catered towards serving women of color struggling with mental health concerns, I’ve both worked with and continue to welcome all genders and ethnicities to my practice, as well as non-working/non-”creatives”-identified persons, especially if the concerns I’ve mentioned that I help treat resonate with you. *

Brad Byrum
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, MBA, LMFT
Has your relationship become an angry, sad, or scary place leaving you feeling alone, hurt, and discouraged? Are you and your partner feeling lost in conflict cycles you don’t understand and desperately want to change? Many of the couples I work with come to therapy feeling just like you. I understand how much courage it takes to reach out for help and to let another person get inside your relationship, especially when you are feeling so vulnerable. If you are searching for a safe place to explore what's not working in your relationship, and support in creating solutions, I can help. My practice focuses exclusively on couple therapy. In addition to thousands of hours working with couples in distress, I have completed hundreds of hours of clinical training specific to couples therapy, including advanced training in both Emotion Focused Therapy and the Gottman Method Couple Therapy. I am truly passionate about helping couples heal and flourish.
