Dr. Trevor Alleman
Psychologist, PsyD, MA
Pain is an inevitable part of life, but mental suffering can be reduced. Suffering occurs when anxiety takes over our thoughts and actions. We become anxious about facing our fears, so we avoid them. We're anxious about letting others get close, so we isolate ourselves. Psychotherapy offers way out of these avoidant patterns. While we can't prevent difficulties and tragedies, we can learn to manage our emotional reactions to external events and relationships. Self-empowerment comes from finding the courage to confront our inner world, regardless of how complicated and messy it may be.

Michelle Roberts
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I help folks recover from trauma by befriending the body. Trauma is simply anything that your system experienced as too much, too fast, or too soon (or too little for too long, or too much for too long). You may find that while talking about an issue helps to an extent, that you're still looking to feel more free. If you've been feeling disconnected from yourself, or way too connected & overstimulated by everything, it's likely because your nervous system is working hard trying to make sense of your environment & experiences. Let's learn to care for your unique system as a whole so you can invite more peace into your life.
I am so looking forward to meeting you! I admire your courage in getting to this point. It can be helpful to connect prior to your first session to make sure your initial impression tells you we'd be a good fit! Reach out to me to schedule your free, 15-minute phone consultation where you can ask me any questions you like about the therapy process.

Matthew Kijak, LCSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Let's work through this together.
If you’re feeling worn out, anxious, and disconnected, and your current way of living feels off course, my therapeutic approach can provide the support you need. Much of our distress originates from deeply rooted, uncontrollable negative thoughts about ourselves and the world, embedded during our upbringing. Often, we remain unaware of what keeps us stuck, making it challenging to find a way out.
I've been fortunate to assist numerous individuals whose lives felt unsustainable and unfulfilling, guiding them to uncover their truest, most vibrant selves. This process is not about making minor adjustments; it's about profound transformation. The life you desire is closer than you realize, but the path to it isn’t always clear when traveled alone.
Together, we will explore evidence-based techniques, enriched with the wisdom of philosophy, the tranquility of Buddhism, the strength of Stoicism, the practice of Mindfulness, and the insights of the mind-body connection through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. This isn’t just about self-improvement; it’s a deep awakening, liberating you from the negative thoughts and emotions that have held you back."
