Dr. Christina Charlotin
Psychologist, Psy.D.
My goal in my work is to empower you to break away from the chronic emotions, thought patterns, behaviors and outcomes that do not serve you. When setting our treatment goals, we’ll discuss what you’d like to gain, what you’d like to keep, & what you’d choose to no longer experience. With that information, we’ll work towards creating your version of happiness.

Erika Shershun
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
I specialize in helping trauma survivors, especially survivors of childhood and/or adult sexual trauma, reclaim the life they were meant to live. If you're struggling with symptoms related to trauma, such as being easily triggered, anxiety or depression, dissociation (feeling spaced out, numb, unable to ground, or connect to your body's sensations) trouble sleeping, nightmares, or flashbacks and more, you're in the right place (for an extensive list of trauma symptoms check out my post https://www.healingsexualtrauma.com/post/what-are-trauma-symptoms). My goal is to help you get the results you're looking for while offering lots of needed compassion and understanding. I'm the author of the Healing Sexual Trauma Workbook, the upcoming Healing Sexual Trauma Guided Journal (2024), and teacher of the PESI Sexual Trauma Clinical Training. I'm dedicated to supporting my clients as they navigate their healing journey.

Ana Velouise, Perinatal Mental Health Specialist
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT
Why did no one warn you about how hard the transition to parenthood was going to be? You often feel that you’re not doing a “good enough” job and wonder why other parents seem to have it all figured out. You may not have had the pregnancy, birth, or postpartum experience that you wanted. You love your baby more than anything but you don’t always love being a parent.
I’ve been there. Therapy is a resource that helped me feel less alone as I navigated the immense changes that came with becoming a parent. I’m a queer, neurodivergent mother of twins and my lived experience with perinatal loss, birth trauma, NICU parenting, being postpartum in 2020, and perinatal mental health disorders drew me to this work.

Are you tired of fighting with your partner and being misunderstood? Do you feel like you are trying your best but nothing seems to work? Do you miss the person you first fell in love with? Or maybe you and your partner are thinking about marriage but want to work on some important things first? These are all signs that you could benefit from couple's therapy.
I am a bilingual Hispanic therapist who specializes in helping couples "speak the same language" so that they can better understand each other's needs and grow closer together.
I also have plenty of experience working with people with chronic illnesses and helping them and their family reduce the stress that the illness may have caused in the home.
