Dr. Trey Cole
Psychologist, Psy.D., ABPP, DAAETS
It is my belief that we all have an innate desire to connect, feel heard, and be understood. My therapeutic approach is grounded in this belief, and it is my hope that we will create a meaningful therapy that is validating and encouraging, yet simultaneously challenging enough to be a catalyst for meaningful growth.

Debra Alper, Life Transitions Counseling LLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Choosing a therapist is a highly subjective experience. Although education, good training and a comfortable environment all are important factors in the therapeutic experience, the most important quality to look for in a therapist is whether you feel that you can develop a trusting, open communication with them. Therapy ultimately is a relationship between you and your therapist. It is a different relationship than any other relationships you have in your life as it is bound by professional ethics, theory and it is not an equal give and take relationship. As a therapist, it is my job to help you create an environment that feels safe, supportive, and conducive to your self growth and insight. It is not my job to judge you, direct you, or impose my opinions onto your life. We work together to create a place for you in which you can discover what it is that you really need, want and feel outside of other's opinions and influences. It is my job to help you to strengthen your inner voice and the self awareness that allows you to find the answers to your own questions.

Relational Psychotherapy
Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
We often seek therapy because we are hurting and unhappy in our relationships with others and ourselves. Anxiety, sadness, restlessness, and loneliness are often the clues that we feel off-track. Whether you are new to it, or have been in it before, therapy presents the opportunity to invite a professional fellow human into your journey of meaningful living.
I provide evidence-based treatment for anxiety, relational, and trauma-related concerns for neurotypical and neurodivergent adults. I also work with individuals seeking to explore and understand their experiences of gender and sexuality. Our work begins with clarifying the nature of and sources of your concerns, setting a path forward, and working together to help you implement and maintain the changes you seek.
