Dr. Tinatin Surguladze
Psychologist, PhD
Are you in emotional pain? Do you feel stuck and unsure of what your next steps should be? I believe that you have the resources to change, to self-actualize, and that you want your life to be meaningful. In order to activate these resources, I focus on values work to help you become more aware of what matters most to you. We will work together to shift your focus from your current suffering to the present moment. We will also address your avoidance and I will challenge you to try things differently, in ways that align with your values. I believe that you drive your healing process, and I serve as a catalyst.

Allen Wood
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I'm a psychologist with expertise in working with anxiety, depression, dissociation, and the full range of traumatic experiences and specialize in supporting clients who feel that therapy isn't for them. In working with me you can expect a high level of collaboration, dedication to your success, and lots of nerdy metaphors. I draw from interpersonal neurobiology, developmental psychology, and attachment theory to make evidence-based therapy models less generic and more useful for your specific situation.

Sarah Malavenda
Registered Social Worker, LSW
As a therapist, my goal is to work together to find the healing process that works best for you. Since we all have unique needs and experiences, I like to meet clients where they are, whatever that looks like.
My style is compassionate, calm, and curious. In session, I offer an interactive approach based on trust and respect so you don’t feel alone when things get messy. I also bring my genuine & authentic self to sessions, which means that I am there for you when things are heavy or when you need a bit of humor to brighten your day.
I specialize in life transitions, burnout, anxiety, depression, trauma, sex therapy, couples therapy, and more. I use a trauma-informed, strengths-based approach and a variety of therapeutic techniques to cater to each client’s unique needs.
If you’d like to learn more about myself or therapy generally, I’m happy to hop on a quick call to share more information!
