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.

Tricia Osterberger
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LCAS
I believe we are often made to feel defective or broken when we aren't born with the "proper default settings." Learning to navigate a world that doesn't feel like it was built for you can lead to burn out, anxiety, depression, attachment wounds, relationship challenges, and substance use just to name a few. I work with people who are trying to find a new way to be in the world and to relate to themselves and other people, who don't need "fixing" to fit into the dominant culture.

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.

Charity Hochberg
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) specializing in trauma, personality disorders, and neurodivergence, I utilize evidence-based modalities like Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Gottman-informed approaches to foster lasting change. My work integrates a strong interest in the mind-body connection, helping clients recognize how emotional pain can manifest physically and empowering them through integrated healing. I particularly enjoy working with couples, especially where unresolved trauma impacts their dynamics, guiding them towards mutual understanding and co-regulation, and transforming conflict into connection.

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.

Courtney Chaney
Counselor/Therapist, MS, NCC, APC
In this big world that we live in, we often find ourselves surrounded by people, but walking entirely alone. They don’t understand us and when we stop to think about it, we realize that we don’t really understand ourselves. The pain, fear, and other struggles become who you think you are, losing the true sense of the person you were meant to be. You’ve tried changing your personality or appearance to find the love and acceptance you crave, but it’s only left you feeling empty. Life keeps passing by, time keeps ticking and the pain becomes too much to handle and the feeling of being “stuck” has settled in.
Through our work together, you will find empowerment to face your struggles, strength to have ultimate freedom over your life and learn practical tools to apply to everyday life. My therapeutic approach is based on building a strong, healthy relationship with you and walking side by side through your journey of self-acceptance and healing.
You don’t have to do this alone. I can help you experience self-acceptance, worth beyond measure and ultimate freedom from self-judgment. I know seeking counseling can be hard, but help is within your reach. Together, we can walk through this journey to make meaningful and positive changes in your life. Call me for a free 15-minute phone consultation.
