Laura Anderson LPCC, Eff Shame Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
I started Eff Shame Therapy because I believe shame is at the root of most of what brings people to therapy — and because I think it deserves to be named directly rather than tiptoed around. We are living in a world that generates shame faster than most of us can process it, and many of us are carrying wounds from abuse, trauma, and systemic harm that have never had a real place to land and heal.
I work with adults who are ready to stop managing their pain and start actually moving through it. My approach is trauma-informed, shame-free, and genuinely collaborative — I bring some of the most effective healing tools available including EMDR, Flash Technique, and ketamine-assisted EMDR, and I meet you exactly where you are.
This work matters to me. Not as a concept but in the room, session by session, with real people who deserve more than survival.

Sydney Egan
Drug and Alcohol Counselor, AMFT, APCC
My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in attachment-based therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I support clients in understanding the “why” behind their emotional patterns, while also learning practical skills to regulate intense feelings, navigate relationships more effectively, and develop a stronger, more stable sense of self.
Together, we’ll work toward helping you feel more secure, connected, and in control of your emotional world. If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stuck in painful patterns, or unsure of who you are outside of your struggles, therapy can help. You deserve a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to create meaningful, lasting change.

David Sudyka
Marriage and Family Therapist, Marriage & Family Therapist, LMFT, MA
Therapy is a place to talk through what’s been weighing on you and start to understand it a little better. Whether it’s anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship stress, it can be hard to sort it out on your own.
In our work together, the focus is on helping you make sense of what you’re going through and finding ways to move forward that actually feel doable. I use approaches like EMDR and Gottman-informed therapy, but just as important is having a space where you can be open and feel understood.
You don’t need to have everything figured out to start. We can take it one step at a time and go from there.
