Gestalt Therapy
Kristin Robert
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
I came to this work through a deep respect for the complexity of human experience and the ways people adapt in order to survive. Over the years, I have seen how pain, loss, and conflict can quietly shape a person’s inner world, often long before they have language for it. I am continually moved by the courage it takes to look at these experiences honestly and to ask for support when something no longer feels sustainable.
What draws me to this work is the opportunity to sit with people at meaningful crossroads in their lives. I value conversations that are real, reflective, and grounded, and I believe healing happens not through quick answers, but through understanding, presence, and trust built over time. I approach therapy with curiosity and humility, holding space for complexity rather than certainty.
At a personal level, I believe in accountability without shame, depth without intensity for its own sake, and care that respects autonomy. I am committed to showing up thoughtfully and consistently, honoring the responsibility that comes with being invited into someone’s inner life. This work matters to me because it offers the possibility of greater clarity, connection, and integrity, both within ourselves and in how we relate to others.

Shirley Johnson,
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CYT
“I would rather be whole than good.” – Carl Jung
If you’re ready to move beyond performing, pleasing, or simply surviving and step into a more whole, honest version of yourself, I’d be honored to work with you. My approach blends psychodynamic depth, relational therapy, Gestalt awareness, and certified sex therapy to support meaningful, lasting change. I specialize in working with Black and POC adults and couples who want deeper connection, authenticity, and fulfillment. When you’re ready to choose wholeness, I invite you to reach out.

Gestalt Therapy
Kelsi McMartin
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
My clients often say.. "you nailed it!" when I offer my sense of things. Maybe its my 20 plus years in the field, maybe its pattern recognition, or maybe its intuition... hard to say. I have a way of getting to the heart of things with my clients. In these days of so much outside noise, it can be hard to tune in to what's really important, what's really needed. I help my clients connect with this and with the unlived parts of themselves.

Gestalt Therapy
Talia Chanoff
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Hello! Client's seeking therapy with me are met with dignity, warmth, attunement and deep care for their stories. I have a strong foundation in community mental health and ongoing work as a solo practitioner in private practice. I have also lived with a chronic illness for more than twenty years, a journey that has deeply shaped how I understand self-care, resilience, and what it means to show up for oneself—even in the presence of ongoing pain and discomfort. I understand how pain--both physical and emotional--can shape our inner worlds and influence how we move through our lives, sometimes leaving us feeling stuck in patterns that no longer reflect our values or our visions for the future. I love supporting people who are navigating similar terrain—whether that includes chronic illness or chronic pain, substance use and harm reduction, a complicated relationship to food and body, or experiences of anxiety, loneliness, depression, and a broader sense of dis-ease—offering a space for reflection, compassion, and meaningful change.
