Karen Hammack
Psychologist, Ph.D.
With over 17 years of experience, I offer treatment that focuses on building empathy, understanding, and acceptance, whether towards yourself, your children, or your partner. I am trained to work across the lifespan, including adults (from young to older), using evidence based therapeutic practices. In this way, we create space for healing, understanding, and for brainstorming solutions. I use evidence based therapies (Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Integrative Behavioral Couple Therapy for couples) to nurture healing and growth. This includes treatment for depression, anxiety, and trauma. Specialty areas include women's and maternal mental health across the lifespan, issues in fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, loss, as well as menopause, mid-life, or empty nest issues. I also frequently work with those with chronic or terminal medical conditions.

Kimberlee Zetocha Halverson
Psychologist, Ph.D, LP
I help people create more balance in their lives by learning when to pause, be present, and step out of the constant pressure of “what’s next.” Many individuals find themselves shaped by old patterns or past experiences that make it hard to move forward. My approach focuses on helping you ride the waves of life with greater resilience—navigating the unpredictable storms rather than feeling anchored in them. While we can’t prepare for every unexpected moment, we can build the tools and skills to manage whatever comes our way. Tides shift, storms pass, and calmer waters are possible.
I don’t believe in a one‑size‑fits‑all approach. I tailor treatment to your preferences, goals, schedule, and life circumstances. I also offer structured, evidence‑based therapies when a more guided path is helpful. With over 15 years of experience supporting individuals with a wide range of concerns, I bring both flexibility and clinical depth to the work we do together.
For more information, please visit my website. You’ll find a secure, private patient portal with built‑in video sessions, scheduling, communication, and payment options—all in one encrypted, easy‑to‑use platform, including a mobile app for added convenience.

Nicole Houde
Pre-Licensed Professional
Many people come to therapy feeling stuck in relationships, life direction, or their sense of self, even when things appear fine on the outside. You may find yourself questioning who you are, repeating familiar relationship patterns, struggling to trust yourself, or feeling disconnected from parts of yourself. Therapy can be a place to slow down, make sense of what’s happening, and begin moving forward with greater clarity and confidence.

Dr. Kelly Scherger
Psychologist, PhD, CST
As a licensed psychologist and certified sex therapist, I believe therapy is a collaborative and meaningful process that can help you reconnect with yourself, strengthen your relationships, and create a life that is in line with your personal values. My approach is compassionate, individualized, evidence-based, and grounded in the understanding that emotional well-being, physical health, sexual wellness, and relationships are deeply interconnected.
In my practice, I work with individual adults and couples navigating concerns related to intimacy and sexual health, anxiety, depression, chronic health conditions, chronic pain, sleep difficulties, and life and relationship stress. I understand how easily your own needs, confidence, and sense of connection can become secondary to the stress and demands of everyday life. Therapy offers an opportunity to slow down, gain perspective, and explore meaningful ways to move forward.
My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to make changes that align with your values. Whether you are seeking deeper intimacy, improved emotional well-being, more restful sleep, or a stronger connection with yourself and your partner, I would be honored to support your journey.
