Nekea Strong (Abundant Life Therapy)
Pre-Licensed Professional, AMFT, APCC
Hi my name is Nekea (nuh-key-yah).
As a woman of color, I understand how the different parts of “who we are”, such as our experiences, identities, and relationships, shape the way we see and move through the world. I strive to create a space that feels safe, supportive, and real, where you can show up fully without judgment.
Give me a call now for a free 20-minute consultation.

Elena Duong
Psychologist, Psy.D.
You might be here because you’ve been called “too sensitive,” feel easily overwhelmed, or aren’t sure where you fit—especially as someone who is queer and/or asexual. You’re seeking connection with people who “get it” and a therapist who doesn’t need you to explain your culture, sensitivity, or identity just to be understood.
As a Highly Sensitive therapist, I enjoy working with asexual, gray‑ace, demisexual, questioning folks, and sensitive introverts. My style is warm, collaborative, and validating. In our work, we’ll create a gentler space, where your boundaries are honored, your quirks are welcomed, and you’re treated as enough exactly as you are.

Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Individual, Marriage, and Family Therapist (LMFT)
Creating lasting change is hard but you don't have to figure it out alone. After our first session, we will have a clear plan for our work together and identify practical ways to start moving forward. I bring nearly 10 years of mental health experience to our work together and am always engaged in ongoing continuing education. Whether you're looking for individual or couple's therapy, there are options to improve your situation and meet your needs.

Phillip McCulley
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, CSAT
If you’re looking for a therapist who can help you strengthen your relationships, reconnect with yourself, and feel more confident in who you are, you’re in the right place. I have specialized training in working with relationship challenges, sex addiction, sexual concerns, trauma, and identity-related stress, and I work with both individuals and couples who want meaningful, lasting change.
I also provide LGBTQ+ affirming therapy and support clients in a wide range of relationship styles, including non-monogamous relationships. Offering online therapy allows me to work with clients who might otherwise struggle to find the right fit.
Whether you’re working to improve communication, heal from past experiences, or better understand yourself and your relationships, I’m here to offer a supportive space where real change can happen in your personal life and in your relationships.
