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.

Olga Mikhnyuk
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
I see therapy as a space to better understand yourself, your experiences, and the patterns that shape how you move through life. My approach is supportive and compassionate, while also being direct and honest. I value genuine conversation and creating a space where you can be open, curious, and honest about what’s going on.
Together, we can explore the patterns that may be contributing to what you’re experiencing and consider practical ways to make things feel more manageable. My hope is that you leave therapy feeling heard and understood, with a better understanding of yourself and tools that you can actually use in everyday life.

Kristina Risola
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA, LMHC, LPC, CRC, NBC-HWC
If you are autistic, neurodivergent, and/or LGBTQIA+ and tired of therapy that feels designed for everyone but you, we might click. I'm an autistic therapist who supports fellow neurodivergent and LGBTQIA+ adults through trauma, anxiety, chronic illness, and the day-to-day challenges of navigating a world that feels incompatible with who we are. I aim to create a space where you can drop the mask and discover what it means to be unapologetically yourself.
