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.

Romina Schnelle
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Seeking therapy can feel overwhelming, especially if you've been carrying the weight of difficult experiences for a long time. My goal is to provide a compassionate, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to move toward meaningful change.
I specialize in working with adults experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions. As an EMDRIA Certified EMDR Therapist, I take an individualized approach to treatment because healing is not one-size-fits-all. Together, we'll identify your goals, build on your strengths, and determine the treatment approach that best fits your needs and readiness.
I also believe that emotional well-being is connected to the whole person. In addition to exploring thoughts, emotions, and past experiences, I consider factors such as stress, sleep, physical health, and lifestyle that may influence mental health. Whether you're processing painful experiences or navigating a difficult chapter in life, my hope is to help you feel more connected to yourself, more confident in your ability to cope, and better equipped to move forward.
