Ilyssa Swartout
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I’m Dr. Ilyssa Swartout, a licensed psychologist dedicated to helping adults and couples heal from past wounds and create meaningful change. My approach blends warmth, presence, and evidence-based therapy to help you move beyond old patterns and reconnect with your sense of worth and wholeness.
My background includes over 20 years of mentorship with James Bugental, Ph.D., founder of Humanistic Psychotherapy, and advanced training in EMDR, Brainspotting, Gestalt Therapy, and Developmental Needs Meeting Strategy (DNMS). These approaches support healing from trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties by addressing both emotional and body-based experiences.
As an EMDR Consultant and Certified In-Depth Therapist, I guide clients and other professionals toward lasting transformation and self-understanding.
Therapy is a courageous step toward healing and growth. Together, we’ll create a safe and supportive space for you to explore, recover, and thrive.

Tracy Feldman-Ashdale
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
One of my greatest strengths is my ability to help clients create change in a way that feels realistic, compassionate, and sustainable. I combine accountability with warmth and support, helping women move beyond all-or-nothing thinking and develop habits that fit their real lives.
I also bring a highly personalized approach to each session. I understand that every woman’s relationship with health, stress, and self-care, and relationships is different, which is why I focus on helping clients build self-awareness, confidence, consistency, and trust in themselves—not just temporary motivation.
Clients often appreciate my ability to balance emotional insight with practical strategies, creating sessions that feel both supportive and empowering.

Maria Elizabeth LeBlanc
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, M.Ed MSW LICSW
A guiding principle in my work is the belief that the quality of the therapeutic relationship is of the utmost importance. Neuroscientific literature supports the curative powers of deep empathic attunement (limbic resonance), and the brain/body's ability to heal. As such, in addition to attending to you with the same level of respectful presence that I would expect in a therapist, I use both cognitive/emotional and mind/body tools to assist you in your healing. I think you will find me warm, genuine, empathic, and knowledgeable.
