Vida Mendez
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW, EMDR II
Time doesn’t heal all wounds. You may have moved forward with your life, but still find yourself reacting in ways that don’t fully make sense—overthinking, shutting down, feeling on edge, or carrying emotional weight that never fully lifted.
Trauma can continue to affect how you feel and respond long after the experience is over. I help clients work through traumatic experiences so they no longer have the same hold on them. Using EMDR, we help the brain fully process what happened so it no longer carries the same emotional and physiological impact.

Lance Kair
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, LPC
Lance Kair is a licensed therapist specializing in anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, life transitions, men's mental health, emotional regulation, and personal growth. He works with adults who are seeking more than symptom relief, helping them understand the underlying patterns that contribute to stress, depression, anxiety, relationship conflict, low self-esteem, and feelings of being stuck or disconnected.
He developed the YAM Approach (TM), a framework that helps clients develop greater self-awareness, emotional resilience, and personal agency. Lance believes that lasting change occurs when individuals learn to understand what is actually happening, their thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and nervous system responses, interactions, rather than simply trying to manage or suppress them.
Drawing from Somatic Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and trauma-informed care, Lance helps clients heal from past experiences, improve relationships, overcome self-defeating patterns, and build a stronger connection to their authentic selves. His work is especially effective for individuals struggling with anxiety, childhood trauma, relationship challenges, burnout, chronic stress, and questions of identity, purpose, and meaning.
Lance creates a compassionate, direct, and collaborative therapeutic environment where clients can safely explore difficult experiences while developing practical skills for everyday life. He views therapy as a process of empowerment, helping people move beyond survival mode and toward a life characterized by clarity, confidence, emotional flexibility, and meaningful connection.
Whether working with trauma, anxiety, relationship difficulties, or personal transformation, Lance's goal is to help clients cultivate lasting change by strengthening their ability to respond to life with intention, authenticity, and a deep sense of personal agency.
