Kaijah Bjorklund
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LMHC
I'm Kaijah Bjorklund, a Licensed Professional Counselor with 12 years of experience helping adults move out of survival mode and into genuine freedom. My path to this work wasn't a straight line. Before becoming a therapist, I worked as an Outward Bound wilderness instructor and counselor, studied holistic health and bodywork, and spent years developing a deep understanding of how the nervous system holds and releases pain. That whole-person foundation shapes everything I do.
I show up as my genuine self in every session — approachable, grounded, empathetic, and not easily shaken. I've heard it all, and I can help you hold it. We may laugh together, cry together, or simply sit with what's real. Whatever comes up, I'm here for it.This is an inclusive practice. My clients come from a wide range of backgrounds, including LGBTQ+ individuals and communities that are often marginalized or underserved. You don't have to edit yourself here. All of who you are is welcomed.If you're ready to stop surviving and start living,

Dr. Cheryl D La Rotta
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Ph.D, LMHC
I believe that healing isn’t about being 'fixed'; it’s about rediscovering the person you were before challenges told you who to be. My practice is built on the belief that a safe, non-judgmental space is the ultimate catalyst for change. Here, we move at your pace, trading 'shoulds' for self-compassion. Together, we’ll navigate your unique story with a blend of professional expertise and genuine human connection, ensuring you feel seen, heard, and empowered to lead a more authentic life. Your journey will not be alone.

Tania Feres
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, MA.,LMHC
I offer a safe place for clients to be themselves to share and process their feelings in a non-judgmental environment. It is not easy to find a therapist that you can connect with. If you are new or returning to therapy, I will make this process less overwhelming for you. I assist individuals, couples and families to reach their best potential. If you are struggling with communication issues with your loved ones or in a work place, counseling can help. I help clients who are struggling with their relationships, body image, low self-esteem, parenting, co-parenting, divorce, process trauma, and more. You are worth it!

Brighter Day Psychological Services
Psychologist, Psy.D
At Brighter Day Psychological Services, understanding your mind is the first step toward healing and growth. As a licensed Clinical and School Psychologist, I specialize in neuropsychological and psychological evaluations that help people gain clarity about how they think, learn, and cope with life’s challenges. Many of my clients come to me feeling confused or overwhelmed, wondering why they struggle with focus, memory, learning, or mood. Through compassionate, thorough assessment, I help uncover the “why” behind these challenges and create a clear plan for moving forward. My evaluations explore areas such as ADHD, learning difficulties, anxiety, depression, trauma, memory changes, and executive functioning, always tailored to each individual’s unique story. My approach is warm, collaborative, and deeply respectful. Every report I provide translates complex information into practical insights that can make everyday life easier—whether that’s at school, work, or home. My goal is for every person I work with to leave feeling seen, understood, and equipped with tools for a brighter day ahead.
