Dr. Alisha Desai
Psychologist, PhD
I am a firm believer that we are all capable of change. At the same time, I understand how difficult and scary change can be - even if it's what we want most. My goal is to help others build the confidence to see themselves fully and move through life based on their own inner compass.
My approach is collaborative, practical, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I aim to create a space where you can be honest about what you’re experiencing, without judgment, while developing concrete tools to navigate challenges, build resilience, and live a life that feels more meaningful and aligned with your values.

Marina Harris, Bloom Psychology Group
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P, CMPC
Whether you're dealing with big stress, big feelings, or big competitions, I can help. Most teen and adult clients come to see me for anxiety, sport psychology, and eating disorders. Our work will help you feel more confident in yourself, more poised under pressure, and more capable. You will feel free from rules and perfectionism. You won't let your weight define you. You will know your worth isn't dependent on your achievements. You will finally eliminate that voice in your head telling you that you aren't enough.
I understand the pressure felt by high achievers and perfectionists because I've been there. I know what it's like to have mental blocks in sport, to run a business, to feel so anxious that you feel paralyzed - but I also know the way out. I blend my expertise as a former Division I athlete and a doctoral-level psychologist to bring you an elite level of training, expertise, and lived experience. I help clients feel heard and understood in meetings, and use strategies that actually get clients results in their life outside of meetings. Clients can feel empowered knowing they are using their values to achieve maximum performance and well-being. You can learn more about me, my work, and how it will help you live a more fulfilling life at www.bloompsychologync.com.

Taj Maddox
Counselor/Therapist, Associate Professional Counselor
You’ve spent a lot of your life being the strong one. Maybe you’ve learned to push through difficult emotions because slowing down never felt like an option. Maybe you’re the person everyone depends on, yet you struggle to feel deeply known, supported, or chosen in your relationships. If you’re exhausted from holding everything together, caught in perfectionism or people-pleasing, or stuck in the same relationship patterns, you don’t have to keep pushing through. Therapy can offer a soft, safe place to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and build relationships that feel more connected and fulfilling.
Taj is an Associate Professional Counselor under the supervision of Dr. Latrice Love, LPC-S (LPC009331).
