Dr. Ellen Brackup
Psychologist, Ph.D.
So many therapists to choose from! It's overwhelming, right? What should you look for in picking a therapist? Someone who is enough like you that you can connect, and yet different enough that you can grow. It's hard to tell that from profiles, but you'll make the right decision.

Courtney Crooks
Psychologist, PhD, CTMH, CCTP, NATC
I am a licensed psychologist in private practice, with over 20 years of professional experience in psychological research and clinical practice. I specialize in psychodynamic/psychoanalytic psychotherapy for individual adults ages 18+. I can help you understand the underlying basis of your conflicts, then guide you on your journey toward meaningful, positive change according to your needs and goals. I will work with you to develop a customized psychotherapy plan depending on your specific needs and goals, which may include session packages that are intentionally short-term (12-16 sessions) or long-term (1-2 sessions per week spanning some months). I am a military veteran, and have received specialized training related to military and veteran's issues, so I also welcome persons from the military and veteran communities as prospective patients. I am a Certified Clinical Telemental Health Provider (CTMH), Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), and Certified Narcissistic Abuse Treatment Clinician (NATC), and hold an Authorization to Practice Interjurisdictional Telepsychology (APIT) from the PSYPACT Commission.

Kathy Giles
Counselor/Therapist, LAPC, NCC, MA
I believe people are unique, complex, and deeply impacted by their early relationships and experiences. Therefore, I desire to connect and journey with people as they pursue healing and wholeness in their lives through processing their past and coming to understand how it shows up in the present. I believe that the therapeutic process is collaborative and relational, and thus, the most impactful part of therapy is the bond created between the client and myself. If you would like someone to come alongside you as you process through your relationships and experiences, I would be honored to help you.

Alex Stachowski
Counselor/Therapist, APC, NCC, MA
You may look like you have everything together on the outside, but internally feel overwhelmed, disconnected, emotionally exhausted, or unsure of yourself. Maybe your mind never seems to slow down. You’re struggling to feel understood, questioning your relationships or direction in life, or simply tired of pushing through instead of genuinely enjoying the life you’re living.
I work with teens, young adults, and couples who want more than a quick fix. My approach combines practical tools for navigating the challenges you’re facing today with deeper exploration of the patterns, emotions, relationships, and experiences that may be keeping you stuck.
My style is warm, conversational, and collaborative, but I also believe compassion and gentle challenge can exist together. I won’t simply sit back and agree with everything you say. Together, we’ll approach your experiences with curiosity and compassion while honestly exploring whether your current patterns and choices are moving you toward—or away from—the life and relationships you want.
At the heart of my work is the belief that meaningful change is not about eliminating every difficult thought or emotion. It’s about better understanding yourself, strengthening your relationships, and learning to move toward what matters most, even when life feels uncertain or difficult.
Whether you’re a teen struggling to feel understood, a young adult navigating anxiety, relationships, identity, or life direction, or a couple longing to reconnect, you don’t have to have everything figured out before reaching out. Therapy can be a place to slow down, gain clarity, and begin creating meaningful change.

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.

Dr. Elizabeth Richards
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I’m a licensed, doctoral-level, PSYPACT-certified Clinical Psychologist who works thoughtfully and collaboratively with adults of all ages. My goal is to help you build greater insight into yourself and your relationships, connect past experiences with the present, and move through the internal barriers that may be keeping you from a deeper sense of well-being and satisfaction in life. After over a decade of practice in New York City, I’ve developed a particular understanding of individuals who are high-achieving yet often hard on themselves — people who appear to have it all together, but feel anxious, self-critical, or stuck beneath the surface. I work best with individuals who are curious about understanding themselves more deeply — those who may be thriving externally yet long for greater ease, meaning, and self-compassion. Together, we’ll create a space where you can be heard, understood, and supported as you explore the roots of how you think, feel, and relate to others. Feel free to reach out for a complementary 15-minute consultation if you think I might be the right therapist for you.

Matt Vaughn
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, LMHC
I keep therapy pretty down to earth, even though I have a solid theoretical training behind me. I use humor a lot because I genuinely believe that if you're laughing, you're learning. I can help you understand where your struggles come from, and I'll give you real steps you can take to reach your goals.
I'm confident I can help you work through whatever you're dealing with right now.
