Somatic Therapy
Allyse Teltser
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Clients often share that they experience me as approachable, compassionate, and down-to-earth - someone who creates safety while also being willing to step into the hard conversations. In our work together, you can expect a trauma-informed, nonjudgmental space where your story is respected, along with concrete strategies to support behavior change, strengthen relationships, and clarify your identity and values.
You don’t have to navigate this alone. If you’re ready to take the next step, I welcome you to reach out for a consultation. I look forward to connecting with you and supporting your path forward.

Somatic Therapy
Mary Elizabeth Burns, MS, NCC, LPC
Counselor/Therapist, MS, NCC, LPC
What makes my work different is that I meet each client as a whole person—mind, body, and emotions. I blend evidence-based therapies like DBT with somatic approaches and breathwork to help clients not just talk through challenges, but feel and release the stress stored in their bodies. I work with teens, adults, couples, and families navigating trauma, PTSD, ADHD, disordered eating, perfectionism, and the pressures of high achievement, as well as divorce and co-parenting transitions. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and practical: I help clients feel seen, supported, and empowered to create lasting change in their relationships, their bodies, and their lives.

Somatic Therapy
Susan Liddy
Marriage and Family Therapist, MAMFT
Do you feel stuck in the same painful cycle—arguing, shutting down, or clinging tighter, only to end up more disconnected? You may lie awake replaying conversations, wondering if you’re “too much” or “not enough,” or fearing a relationship won’t last. Even when you care deeply, old wounds and attachment injuries can quietly erode closeness. What you long for is safety, trust & the feeling of being understood, accepted & loved.

Taya Larenkova Sanders
Counselor/Therapist, MS, NCC, LAPC, RPT
I believe that every one of my clients, regardless of age, has innate inner wisdom, beauty, strength, and self-direction to ameliorate or overcome their issues. I empower my client to find those innate sources to become healthy and content.

Somatic Therapy
Rena Diamond
Counselor/Therapist, MS, APC, NCC, CCH
Depression and anxiety can impede our judgment, making us feel disconnected from the world around us. This can result in feelings of paralysis, an inability to create necessary changes in our lives, and a persistent engagement in negative and damaging patterns of thoughts and behaviors. You don't have to go it alone. I can support you in your efforts to change.
I am an empathetic, compassionate, engaged therapist who has been extensively trained in anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, parenting, eating disorders, and more. I use evidence based modalities, such as CBT, ERP, and DBT. I fully believe that our minds and bodies are connected, and bring my knowledge, skills, and training as a yoga and meditation teacher into my sessions with client.

Somatic Therapy
Christina Walthers
Counselor/Therapist, MS, APC
This is a space where you can exhale and where you’re free to be fully yourself (messy, uncertain, hopeful, hurting, growing). My role is to walk alongside you with steady support and gentle challenge, helping you uncover clarity, deepen your relationships (including and especially the one with yourself), and move toward a life that feels more aligned and intentional. My approach is compassionate, transparent, and collaborative. I’m here to hold space for your story with care and curiosity, not judgment. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, grief, life transitions, or simply feeling stuck, we’ll work together to explore what’s underneath and work to shift what no longer serves you.
You deserve to feel seen and supported. If my bio resonates with you, I’d love to connect. Shoot me an email or text to schedule a free phone consultation. Let’s take that first step, together.

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,

Somatic Therapy
Banu Ibaoglu Vaughn
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC, LMHC, CIRT, CCH
I work with couples and individuals who are curious about their relationships. I am interested not only in what feels difficult, but in what those struggles may be revealing about who you are and how you want to live. I focus on how we love, how we defend against love, and what we long for when we cannot find our way back to each other. These patterns shape both our partnerships and our way of being in the world. Most conflicts that bring people to therapy nearly always point toward something that needs attention, a place where growth is trying to happen.
Relationships are living fields. They carry our histories, our cultural inheritances, and our unfinished emotional stories, but they also carry possibility. This is true of the relationships we have with others and the relationship we have with ourselves. Many of the individuals I work with feel a gap between their current reality and the life they sense is possible but have not yet been able to inhabit. I do not see this as pathology. It often signals that your development is asking for attention.
I am a clinical trainer and supervisor in Imago Relationship Therapy and have over twenty years of experience working across cultures and contexts. My orientation is dialogical, experiential, and psychodynamic. In sessions, I integrate somatic awareness and close attention to what unfolds in real time, such as shifts in tone, subtle contractions, or moments of distance. We slow these down so that reactions can become meaningful rather than automatic. We also make plenty of room for laughter. I find that humor is often the first sign of a pattern breaking, a way to hold the absurdity of the human experience while moving toward something more vital.
I work online with U.S. and international clients, including cross-cultural couples and expats navigating identity shifts and displacement. Culture, migration, and family history leave deep imprints on how we attach and how we imagine intimacy. These layers are always part of our conversation.
Therapy with me is steady, engaged, and deeply reflective. I trust that individuals and relationships carry an inner movement toward aliveness. My role is to help you recognize it, support it, and allow it to shape how you live, both together and individually.
If this resonates with you, I invite you to reach out to schedule an initial consultation.

Andrea Elkon
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Do you ever feel exhausted trying to figure out what "health and wellness" actually means? We are constantly bombarded by messages regarding the latest exercise trends, fad diets, and other quick-fix remedies that will supposedly make us feel better. But do you find that they actually make you more anxious, depressed, and worried about "failure"? I am a psychologist with 15+ years experience, and I help adults who are struggling with anxiety about their health. Whether you're worried about eating, fitness, sleep, chronic pain, or getting older, I will help you uncover the roots of your anxiety and feel more secure in your health. We will examine your unwritten rules around wellness and learn about how those rule affect how you feel and what you do. Together, we will help you improve your relationship with your health and equip you with a set of tools to manage whatever stressors life brings.

Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
My goal as a therapist is to create a safe non-judgemental space for all clients, especially clients who may not click with other therapists such as LGBTQ+, gender diverse, polyamorous or non-monogamous, and kink practicing clients. During our sessions you can be your true self. You don't have to mask with me or hide things about you that you think are weird or unlikeable. Ideally I can help you learn to like those aspects of yourself. You never have to hide important parts of your identity with me because I will never judge you for any reason.
