Richard (Rick) Brodsky
Psychologist, PsyD, MA
Are you thriving on paper, but the pressure to constantly perform in a high-stakes corporate career or survive the relentless hustle of the music and entertainment industry is quietly grinding you down. High performance shouldn't cost you your mental health.
As a psychologist with over 20 years of experience—and an active touring musician in a successful bluegrass band with a background spanning roles as a production manager, sound engineer, and event producer—I intimately understand the intense anxiety, perfectionism, and erratic lifestyles of high-pressure environments. Whether you are navigating a grueling corporate ladder, managing a chaotic tour, or engineering an intense studio mix, you don’t need to waste time translating industry pressure or life on the road to me; I live it. Specializing in high-achieving 25-to-35+ professionals, I combine deep clinical expertise with real-world, action-oriented solutions.

Michelle Peacock
Psychologist, PhD
We will work together to help you make positive changes to your life—healthier, more stable, productive and fulfilling! With each of my clients, I work to build a relationship based in trust and authenticity where you can feel both safe and challenged—safe knowing you can talk openly and will be heard and understood, not judged, but also challenged to make the changes you want to make. Making those changes is more likely when you find a therapist who is empathetic—someone with whom you can connect and trust. Your full potential is always within reach and a therapeutic relationship based in sincere, empathetic, and authentic dialogue is healing. Call me today for a free, phone consultation and get started on a better and brighter present and future.

Johanna Wood
Psychologist, PhD
I specialize in exposure-based therapies for OCD and anxiety disorders. My clients typically have tried therapy before, but have not seen much improvement. They continue living in fear, anxiety, and guilt, as their lives continue getting smaller and smaller. This is because OCD and most anxiety disorders require specialized treatment. Coping skills are great, but they can only get you so far. The good news is, there are science-backed treatments for OCD and for anxiety that actually work. If you're ready to stop coping and start living, take a leap of faith and reach out.
My style is structured and balances use of the latest science with compassion and understanding. My goal is to make you feel heard, and feel challenged. I serve adults with primary issues of OCD and anxiety, and I also address co-occurring depression, insomnia, body-focused repetitive behaviors, and trauma, using cognitive-behavioral therapies. I address all forms of OCD and anxiety, but I have a special interest in scrupulosity (religious- and moral-based) OCD. I love helping people stop letting their OCD hijack their sources of meaning and get back to having faith in faith again.
