Object Relations Therapy
Dr. Brian Sharpless
Psychologist, Ph.D., Clinical Psychology; M.A., Philosophy
Hi! I am a clinical psychologist (PhD) trained at Penn State and the University of Pennsylvania. Though I treat a number of conditions (e.g., anxiety, depression, trauma), I have a great deal of experience helping people with personality disorders, sleep disorders, rare/unusual psychological conditions, and clinical problems which have been formerly resistant to treatment. Along with my practice, I stay active in the field through research, publications (i.e., books and articles), and other professional work. I particularly enjoy living lectures for popular science organizations in the US and abroad. Please visit my website (linked below) for more information.

Object Relations Therapy
Ashley Mason
Counselor/Therapist, CMHC, LMHC
I work with thoughtful women who have built careers, families, and lives that look “put together” on the outside but quietly carry the old wounds of growing up with critical, narcissistic, or emotionally unavailable mothers. Even now, after all they’ve accomplished, many of my clients find themselves wrestling with guilt, people-pleasing, and an unshakable sense of never being enough.
My approach draws from 20 years of psychoanalytic training, finely tuned listening, and a spacious, non-intrusive presence. Together, we explore the hidden patterns that keep them stuck — the echoes of a mother’s voice that still shape their self-worth and choices — and create room for their own true voice to emerge.
Through this deeper work, my clients learn to set boundaries without collapse, let go of guilt that never belonged to them, and cultivate trust in themselves. The outcome is not just external success, but something more profound: the freedom to live authentically, with peace, confidence, and a genuine sense of being at home within themselves.

Linda Michlin Ludwig
Psychologist, Ph.D.
My training (Yale University Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology; four-year postdoctoral Certificate in Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy) is broad and varied. I currently practice individual therapy and group therapy, both online. My approach to working with you will depend to a great degree on what you are seeking. Some people benefit from brief treatment; others seek and benefit from a deeper and longer exploration. I believe the combination of individual and group therapy can be particularly beneficial for many people. My work is guided as much by my own years of personal therapy and psychoanalysis as by my formal education.

Object Relations Therapy
Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Something in you knows that what you're carrying runs deeper than the presenting problem.
Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable, and outwardly composed-yet internally they live with anxiety, depression, chronic tension or pain, relentless self-criticism, or a sense that something essential is blocked, muted, or just out of reach. These struggles may surface in mood, in the body, in behavior, or in relationships-including sexuality and intimacy-but they are rarely contained to any one area. They tend to reflect deeper emotional and relational patterns formed early in life, often before language, that continue to shape how a person approaches closeness, vulnerability, agency, pleasure, and self-expression.
My work centers on how early experience shapes the capacity for self-regulation, desire, connection, and meaning throughout life-and particularly on how people come to know what they need and want, how they learn to express or inhibit those impulses, and what happens when these capacities become conflicted, constricted, or difficult to sustain.
I integrate psychoanalytic hypnotherapy, somatic awareness, and clinical sexology within a reflective, depth-oriented process. Hypnosis functions as a central clinical tool-creating conditions for deeper internal contact with emotional, bodily, and unconscious experience that can be difficult to reach through conversation alone. The aim is not only relief from symptoms, but the development of a more coherent and compassionate relationship with one's inner life: sensations, emotions, impulses, and desires.
This work is oriented toward lasting psychological change-and toward greater freedom in how one relates to oneself, one's body, and one's capacity for connection, authenticity, and vitality. It is best suited to those ready to move beyond symptom management toward something more fundamental.

Object Relations Therapy
Resilient Counseling, Coaching & Consulting
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
My own childhood was marked by many challenges, and it was my determination to rise above those hardships that inspired my path into counseling. I earned my Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and Mental Health Counseling from Barry University while teaching full-time and raising three children. That experience deepened my understanding of balance, perseverance, and the power of compassion.
Throughout my training, I discovered the importance of nurturing the whole person—spirit, soul, and body. While addressing symptoms can provide temporary relief, lasting healing begins at the root. I often compare it to a gardener pulling out weeds: simply trimming the tops may make the garden look better for a while, but unless the roots are removed, they will return. In therapy, when we work together to uncover and resolve the deeper causes of distress, you can experience genuine growth and transformation.
My goal is to help you cultivate resilience and create meaningful change so you can move forward with renewed energy, healthier relationships, and a greater sense of fulfillment.
