Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In the intricate tapestry of our lives, the pursuit of happiness, safety, and love is a universal quest. Yet, for many, the journey toward emotional wellness is fraught with challenges beyond their control. Trauma, familial history, and the burdens of life can cast shadows that obscure life's inherent beauty. I believe that each individual deserves to uncover, rediscover, and reclaim life's joy and purpose.
As a compassionate and dedicated psychoanalytical therapist, I aim to guide you through this transformative process with warmth and understanding. Through welcoming and conversational counseling services, I aim to create a space where you can explore the intricate connections between your mind, body, and spirit. This holistic approach seeks to assist you in reconnecting with your higher purpose, allowing you to navigate life unburdened by emotional pain.

Dr. Christopher Lowery, DHSc, CLCP
Clinical Health Practitioner, Board-Certified Life Care Planner
Dr. Christopher A. Lowery, DHSc, CLCP is board-certified, specializing in international telehealth life care planning with a focus on clinical health, rehabilitation counseling, biopsychosocial issues, and global health promotion and prevention issues through the use of holistic evidence-based approaches using a Biopsychosocial Health Consultation Model and the Universal Neurodiversity Continuum (UNC) Model™. Dr. Lowery is skilled in the use of targeted plans, assessments, and developing treatments for behavioral health disorders (e.g., anxiety, ADHD, depression, emotional regulation, employment, trauma, conduct disorder, anger, substance use, etc.), medical conditions (e.g., chronic pain, burns, high blood pressure, inflammation, lung diseases, and diabetes, etc.), and health behavior changes (e.g., weight management, informed health decisions, occupational health prevention, physical activity, disparities, preventive nutrition, tobacco cessation, risky sexual activity, accident prevention, etc.). Other services also provided are catastrophic and disability case management, and non-expert (lay) witness or non-testifying expert litigation support regarding associated disabilities and/or health impairments.
The Universal Neurodiversity Continuum (UNC) Model™ established by Dr. Lowery, is an evidence-informed framework that understands cognitive, emotional, and behavioral traits as existing along a continuum across all individuals. It shifts the focus from fixed diagnostic categories to how traits are expressed and how they impact daily functioning, allowing for more personalized practical, and inclusive approaches to support and well-being.
Dr. Lowery holds a board-certification in life care planning as a Certified Life Care Planner (CLCP) from the International Commission on Health Care Certification (ICHCC), which is accredited and recognized by the American National Standards Institute National Accreditation Board (ANAB). This prestigious certification attests to his qualifications and competence in the health care delivery systems. ANAB’s accreditation ensures that the certification process meets rigorous international standards, confirming his aptitude and expertise for his role as a practitioner.

Emily Blitz
Psychologist, PsyD
Welcome! For me, this work is deeply relational in nature, as I find a steady, trusting relationship to be central for deeper exploration. Together, we can attend to both immediate concerns and deeper themes such as emotional experiences, attachment styles, and family-of-origin dynamics. I offer a warm, steady presence alongside attuned and practical feedback, supporting meaningful insight that can lead to lasting change. Online therapy offers us a wonderful opportunity to engage in this work from the comfort of your own space, while also offering flexibility when needed. Moves, new jobs, or growing families - our work can remain an anchor through the change. If you'd like to discuss working together, please reach out for a free consultation.
