Kaitlin Joyce Therapy & Consulting, LLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW, NATC, TCTSY-F
I specialize in working with high-achieving adults (18+) who are outwardly thriving, but carry the invisible wounds of narcisstic abuse, complex trauma, emotional neglect, or early attachment ruptures. You may be someone who’s loving, thoughtful, and aware—but feels stuck in patterns of self-criticism, doubt, unstable emotions, or people-pleasing.
You are not broken! Together, we’ll uncover the roots of your distress to help you reclaim your inner peace, regulate your nervous system, and create healthy relationships. I offer a safe, collaborative space for you to learn how to manage your feelings, find your voice and heal from the past.

Jacqueline Elster
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP, LP
Professionally, I have advanced training and experience in treating trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, substance use disorders, and insomnia. For six years, I worked for the VA, helping veterans heal the invisible wounds of combat and other traumatic experiences. Now, I offer therapy to the wider community, including veterans.
I love what I do, and that shine through in my work. Please feel free to contact me to learn more about my practice and to set up an appointment.

Kate E. Stephenson
Life Coach, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Holistic Life, Career & Executive
Have you made time and space for you today? Most of us haven't—and therapy isn't the only way to do it. Consider Holistic Life Coaching instead. As a certified professional coach, I am here to encourage you to take a breath, take a beat to consider who you are, where you are, and if you are feeling satisfaction in your own success. If you aren't, I invite you to have a conversation with yourself about what can be done differently—allow me to moderate that conversation. Together we can help you live into your own definition of success and begin to feel it deeply. To breathe it in and live.

Jason Powell
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CST
I work with individuals and couples navigating sexual concerns, infidelity, and shifts in trust, desire, or emotional closeness that leave relationships feeling strained or uncertain. Many still want intimacy and connection, but feel unsure how to move toward one another without repeating familiar patterns. Sessions focus on what unfolds between people in real time, with attention to responsiveness, clarity, and emotional presence.
