Angel U. Seymour, LPC
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC, CCTP
When emotional pain, constant self-criticism, or the overwhelming weight of life begins to feel like too much, it is easy to feel isolated. But as human beings, we weren't meant to carry everything on our own. Whether you are navigating a major life transition, trying to break free from anxiety or depression, or struggling to let go of past events, you need a safe space to process and heal. With over 26 years of experience as a Licensed Professional Counselor, my goal is to provide a collaborative, deeply compassionate environment where you feel truly heard and understood.

Charonda P. Gardner
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, CPCS
I work with individuals to heal and recover from childhood trauma, codependency, people pleasing, self-abandonment, poor boundaries, and low self-worth. I especially enjoy working with those who identify as Empath or Highly Sensitive, those who have experienced an “awakening”, those attempting to understand their purpose, and those in search of their authentic selves. I also enjoy working with other therapists, helpers, and healers as a therapist supervisor and consultant.

Kelli Tahaney
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist, Ph.D.
Hi! I'm Dr. Tahaney and I'm a Psychologist based in Boulder, CO. I moved to Colorado from Boston in 2020 to complete my residency training and start my clinical practice. I have about ten years of clinical experience working with clients from a range of demographic backgrounds and with a variety of presenting problems and symptoms. I have particularly specialized in treating alcohol and drug use disorders, anxiety disorders, depression, trauma, ADHD and life transition stress.
I feel passionately about creating a supportive, nonjudgmental, and validating environment and utilizing my extensive background and training in evidence-based practices (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Processing Therapy) to help clients work through their pain and distress to live less inhibited and more fulling lives.
