Adriel D. Johnson, Jr.
Counselor/Therapist, DBH, LPC, NCC, CCMHC, BCC
I became a therapist because I believe that everyone deserves to have a gentle, non-judgemental listening ear while attempting to problem solve some of life's most difficult moments. For me, the therapeutic relationship is a special connection that allows for creativity, exploration, discovery, and empowerment.

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.

Christina Walthers
Counselor/Therapist, MS, APC
This is a space where you can exhale - where you don’t have to hold it all together. You’re welcome here as you are: messy, uncertain, grieving, hopeful, stuck, hurt, or in the middle of change. I often work with folks who feel disconnected from themselves or others as well as their own desires and needs. Together, we slow things down and listen for what’s happening beneath the surface (emotionally, relationally, and in the body).
I’ll meet you with steadiness and care, while also gently challenging the patterns that keep you feeling stuck. Our work is about deepening your relationship with yourself and others, and moving toward a life that feels more connected and intentional. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, grief, life transitions, or a general sense of disconnection, we’ll work together to understand what’s underneath and shift what no longer serves you. If this resonates, please reach out. Let's chat about how I can support you.

Annie Phannick
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
My path as a therapist is guided by a belief in the power of relationships, emotional connection, and the wisdom of the nervous system. I integrate attachment science with neuroscience-informed strategies to help you understand the language of your own nervous system. Whether we are using Internal Family Systems (IFS) to explore your internal world, EMDR to process past trauma, or Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) to strengthen your partnership, my goal is to help you create a sense of safety that lives in your body, not just your mind.
Ultimately, I am committed to helping you build resilience, foster healthy relationships, and achieve lasting change. I look forward to walking alongside you as you rediscover your path to connection.

Dr. Allison Williams
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I specialize in helping those who are anxious and overwhelmed learn to recognize and honor their needs - it may mean: giving yourself permission to slow down, scale back, set healthy boundaries, go after what you truly want, and be yourself (authentically and unapologetically). As your partner on this journey, I’ll help you muster your strength, foster your self-acceptance, and feel more at ease.
If you’ve always cast aside your own needs to give everyone and everything your all, I want to help you finally get what you deserve: better relationships, self-care, and greater life satisfaction.

Erika Gray
Psychologist, Psy.D
Why is it so hard to find a therapist? So many people arrive here exhausted from the search. I understand that your connection to your therapist is paramount to your healing. I offer a free consultation to give you a chance to see if we're a good "fit" with the hope that this can be a place to stop, rest and begin the process you've been longing to begin.

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.

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,

Allison Cava
Therapist, LMSW
With over 16 years of experience across diverse settings and populations, I bring a depth of perspective that allows me to meet people where they are. I often describe my work as “people service” — a genuine commitment to connecting with others in meaningful, human ways. As a therapist, I am committed to supporting emerging adults and adults navigating depression, anxiety, grief and loss, life transitions, trauma, self-image concerns, and personal growth. I work with individuals who feel stuck in repetitive or unhelpful thought patterns, overwhelmed by ongoing stress, or searching for clarity in the midst of major life adjustments. I provide particular support for those facing systemic challenges or significant transitions, helping clients strengthen their emotional, physical, and relational well-being in ways that feel sustainable and grounded. I am also deeply interested in exploring questions of life purpose and meaning — understanding how insight and clarity can guide your decisions, relationships, and overall direction.
