Leandra Desinord
Marriage and Family Therapist, LPC
Who are you when no one’s around?
If you struggle to answer that question, you're not alone.
Maybe you've become really good at being who everyone else needs you to be. The dependable daughter. The successful professional. The partner who holds everything together. The woman who can handle just about anything — until you're alone with yourself and realize you don't quite know what you need anymore.
You don't have to arrive with everything figured out. You just have to be willing to get curious about yourself.
Who are you when no one's around?
Let's find out.

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.

Rabia Subhani
Psychologist, Psy.D.
As a late-diagnosed ADHD neuropsychologist, I am happy to offer neuro-affirming evaluations for adults seeking assessment for autism and/or ADHD. My goal is to assess you in your own safe space while I am in mine! Testing sessions and reports are strengths-based, focusing on your unique neurotype instead of pathologizing traits. My hope is that you will feel seen, heard, and appreciated - it is my honor to hold this space for you.

Amenah Arman
Therapist, MS-CLINICAL MENTAL HEALTH COUNSELING, Nationally Certified Counselor
Many people come to therapy feeling misunderstood or “othered,” even in spaces meant to support them. You may have tried therapy before and found yourself explaining your identity, culture, ambition, or creative life just to be understood. If you’ve struggled to trust that someone could truly “get it,” you’re not alone. I provide trauma-informed online therapy for founders, creatives, and high-performing professionals navigating burnout, anxiety, and chronic pressure.

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.
