Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
Michele Koenes
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, JD
I am a neurodivergent therapist with a passion for working with others to help them to find a way forward through the difficult parts of life. I have been a licensed mental health professional for over 30 years and I love my job just as much today as I did when I began. I am attuned to my clients unique and individual personalities, situations and needs. I believe that empathy and letting the client set the pace of therapy is imperative to an effective process and the realization of desired outcomes. I offer a wide array of solutions and approaches, all based on current research, in order to find what specifically works for you. Everyone's feelings, circumstances and situation are unique. Similarly, therapy has to be individualized specifically for you. I offer a supportive, safe place where every aspect of you is welcome – even the parts that may be uncomfortable to share. I am ready to begin the process with you!

When life's challenges appear too daunting to handle alone, when you feel as though you have lost yourself, struggle to see the point, and feel overwhelmed it's ok to ask for some help. My mission is to walk with you in navigating the terrain of your thoughts, emotions, memories and behaviors , to harness these mechanisms and connect you with the inherent strength within you so you can live your life fully.

Follow Your Compass
Psychologist, PsyD
Jessica Silsby, PsyD opened FYC in 2016 as a gender affirming private practice focusing on Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Our comprehensive program treats adults and teens. We can also provide support for siblings, parents, partners, children, and other loved ones of individuals through either gender exploration or mental health crisis. Folx ages 8+ are welcome! A thread through all we do incorporates our awareness of the impacts of trauma, culture, and stigma from society. Whether this is in gender identity or expression, of mental illness, or of both. DBT is innately phenomenological (client-centered perspective) and it is our hope that you will find this influence across the type of care that you receive.

Lisa Andresen
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Getting sick of what's bothering you? Are your thoughts feeling tough to control? Been challenging to unwind, enjoy yourself, or get a good night's sleep? Feeling emotionally lonely, frustrated with family, or disappointed with your friends?
You may be successful professionally and still experience dips in your self-esteem, mood, and energy. Imposter syndrome goes hand in hand with perfectionism, procrastination, and productivity. The irony is you may be working harder than most people around you, and yet feel worse about yourself than they do.
You don't have to keep living like this. Therapy can help you understand how your mind works and optimize accordingly. For example, you can catch self-defeating negative thoughts and reframe them to be more helpful for you through CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy).
You have the right to feel better too.
