Solution-Focused Brief Therapy
Debra Nelson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I understand that your life is complex and there are various demands and expectations at different life stages that can be impacted by situational and mental health struggles. It's important to be mindful of the interaction between those demands and your stage of life.
My experiences are diverse. I have worked for over twenty years with individuals, couples, and groups across the lifespan and socioeconomic spectrum by providing a range of clinical services including assessment, consultation, and psychotherapy. I know how challenging asking for help can be and I strive to work collaboratively with clients, both validating your feelings and experiences while helping you to uncover patterns and obstacles that are holding you back from reaching your goals.
I seek to provide treatment in an integrative way, utilizing Solution-Focused, Interpersonal, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Using these modalities we will focus not just on difficulties, but on areas of strength and positive coping mechanisms. As part of my work, I am always happy to collaborate with medical doctors, attorneys, in-home therapeutic teams, and school systems to ensure that all providers working with you or your family are in sync with the goals you are striving to achieve.

Alistair Highet
Licensed Psychoanalyst, MA, LP, NCPsyA
Being a therapist is a great privilege. I enjoy working with anyone who is eager to understand what is happening in their life and why they are struggling. Together, we'll try to understand what is creating the trouble - including perhaps some unconscious patterns that are at work - and then we'll put them in perspective, cut them down to size, and work through what can be done. I create a safe, empathic, and comfortable environment for counseling where we can talk about anything at all without judgment, and in total privacy.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
I know choosing a therapist can be difficult. I like to provide an atmosphere that is collaborative, nurturing, and focused on helping you achieve your goals. I do this using therapeutic techniques that are evidenced-based which means these methods have consistently been shown effective through research. I make every effort to balance kindness with a focus on getting you to where you want to be. This balance results in people feeling understood while creating meaningful change.

Sometimes, even the strongest people need support to work through challenges. My work focuses on providing an empathic space to help clients move through their pain and struggles, so they can live a fulfilling life every day, not just when the sun is shining. Whatever is troubling you, whether it’s anxiety, depression, relationships, school, work, self-confidence, grief, or trauma, I can help. I draw on a range of evidence-based practices and have extensive experience working with, adults, children, adolescents, and families. I care deeply about the people I work with and offer a personable and warm approach to psychotherapy.

Baumann Psychology
Psychologist, PhD
I am passionate about helping clients improve their well-being, their relationships, and their overall functioning. Together, my clients and I develop a deeper understanding of what they would like their life to look like and what is getting in the way. As we progress in therapy, we will build on personal strengths that clients bring to their own lives as well as shed light on areas that could be impacting their mental health concerns. I work from a bio-psycho-social perspective, which seeks to understand biological, psychological, and social factors that are impacting functioning as well as implement treatment to both alleviate and reduce overall distress or impairment. Together, we build tools to help the client thrive.
