Cassandra Gustama
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
What sets my practice apart is the space I create for you to slow down, be yourself, and feel understood without judgment. I work with adults who are tired of carrying everything alone and are looking for a supportive yet challenging, collaborative approach to navigating life's challenges. My hope is that each session leaves you feeling more connected to yourself, more hopeful, and a little less alone.

Jennifer Masters
Life Coach, Ba Psychology, CF Thanatology, D Kessler – Grief Grief Coach Certif,M Devine – Grief Coach Certif
Hi, I'm Jennifer, a Certified Thanatologist and Grief Coach. I've dedicated my profession to companioning people who are moving through bereavement and grief.
Personally, I experienced complicated, traumatic, and prolonged grief from caring for my father through his illness and his passing in 2019. His death inspired me to become a grief coach — I wanted to provide the unwavering support to other grieving hearts that I received, which helped me heal. It also allows me to honour him.
It was through the wisdom, understanding, and coping tools I gained as a griever that I've been able to hold space for others and walk beside them as they grieve. My goal is to help my clients feel seen, heard, and accepted — and to begin discovering answers, regaining a sense of control, and finding balance, peace, and hope.

Allyse Teltser
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Some people come to therapy carrying years of pain they have never had the words for. Others come in the middle of a crisis, trying to hold themselves or their family together. Wherever you are starting from, this is a place where you do not have to minimize what you are going through or rush toward being okay.
I work with preteens, teens, adults, and families facing some of the hardest things a person can face — trauma, intense emotions, self-harm, depression, and the kind of suffering that does not show up neatly on the outside. My approach is direct, warm, and grounded in treatments that actually work. I will not shy away from the hard stuff, and I will not ask you to be further along than you are.

Dr. John E. N. Daniel
Marriage and Family Therapist, EdD; EdS; MA; MA; LCMFT#0404011018; BCCLC#0131
I utilize "eclectic/integrated" approaches for clients in need of life change. Some of my specialties include: life coaching, marriage/couple & family therapy, anger/career management, depression, anxiety and PTSD. We provide a safe, trusted & confidential client environment. I help clients improve their stress management, coping skills, work-life balance and emotional stability. Many desire "inner healing" from life crisis situations. I also guide clients seeking direction, transformation and accountability by helping them to self-discover their core values, destiny, life purpose, sense of worth, creativity and untapped potential.

Christina Song
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT-S
I believe therapy works best when it feels human, collaborative, and deeply respectful of your lived experience. I offer online therapy grounded in trauma-informed, systemic, and strengths-based care, with a strong commitment to affirming queer, polyamorous, and non-traditional relationship structures.
My approach centers safety, curiosity, and consent—both in the therapeutic relationship and in the pace of our work. I work with individuals and relationships navigating trauma, identity exploration, relational stress, and the impacts of burnout or chronic overwhelm. I also have a particular appreciation for working with helpers and clinicians, especially those carrying the weight of caring for others while trying to care for themselves.
In our work together, I aim to create a space where you don’t have to perform, explain, or justify who you are. Therapy with me is about building insight, strengthening resilience, and reconnecting with parts of yourself that may have been shaped by survival but are ready for something more sustainable and compassionate.
