Jane Bennett-Elias
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC
In my years in practice, I have heard from many clients that they have struggled to find a good therapist. Many have said that they didn't feel understood or get interactive feedback in their previous experiences. I believe that the client/therapist relationship is a partnership. We will work together to help you get to the solutions that work for your life.

Dr. Evette Addai
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Accepting new clients! Are you or your child finding it hard to cope with a medical diagnosis? Are you noticing changes where your child is having more tantrums, cannot follow instructions unless you repeat yourself, seems to be overthinking, spends more time in their room, or blows up over small things? We can work together to use evidence-based solutions to improve stress, change behaviors, and help create a hopeful future for you and/or your child. I have worked with many youth, adults, and families around healing from burnout, finding space for self-care when there's little time, and dealing with larger social stressors related to race/ethnicity, gender, or sexual orientation.

Emily Zibell
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, NCC
One of the hardest parts of the therapy journey is just getting started. After that, I believe in focusing on the relationship to help individuals work towards their goals and manage the everchanging challenges of life and stress. I value creating an authentic and personable environment where you will be able to process and learn new skills to regain functioning and be the person you are meant to be. I know life can be challenging and we don't always ask for the difficulties we face, but I believe we all have the capability to move through them with the right support. Welcome and I am honored to be a part of your journey.

Dr. Paige Hover
Psychologist, PsyD
If you are anxious and/or burnt out and are looking to go beyond fixing a problem or feeling better, I may be the psychologist for you. Think of me as a mental health personal trainer. I can provide some initial relief but also help you get a deeper understanding of yourself. I use a mix of mindfulness based coping skills and provide a form of cognitive behavioral therapy called Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Along with some other approaches, we can work together to help you sustain long-term mental health improvement. I specialize in working with people who identify as perfectionists, high-achievers and people pleasers. I don't accept insurance but superbills can provided for potential OON reimbursement upon request.

Craig Mead
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LCPC
Most people experience some form of stress, anxiety, overwhelm at some point in their lives. Persistent chronic stress in particular can lead to depression and even become traumatic. Many are seeing the advantage of talking to a professional to sort out their problems and also avoid overburdening their partner, family, and friends. Some issues are just easier to talk with a non-related third party. Therapy is a valuable opportunity to process through your thoughts and feeling and gain understanding of yourself, relationship problems, and family conflicts. I genuinely enjoy helping others work through their struggles and learn more about the roots of their current problems.

Matthew Brown, DO, MBA
Psychiatrist
Dr. Brown is a double board certified psychiatrist and treats children, adolescents and adults. Dr. Brown is an expert in the treatment of OCD. He will also work with clients regarding issues with PTSD, Panic Disorder, Generalized Anxiety, Depression, and ADHD. Dr. Brown focuses largely on using supplements and other natural treatments such as a behavioral change to find a path forward. However, he does prescribe medications as well when needed. The goal of treatment is the less medication overall the better as long as the person is doing ok.
In addition to supplements and medication management, unlike most psychiatrists, Dr. Brown also offers psychotherapy services for those who are interested. His open-ended approach aims to help clients find a deeper connection with themselves and for OCD folks is meant to be a compliment to their exposure treatment.

Sushma Cheturvedula
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
In moments we feel inadequate, uncertain, or even confused, we often look for a helping hand. As a therapist, I perfectly understand that we all need a little extra support at some point in our lives. Together, we will work out solutions that could help you grow as an individual. Working with me can help improve your emotional well-being, make peace with your past, and live the life you’ve always wanted. Our minds can get overwhelmed sometimes, but I will help you unravel what’s causing you stress. Whether it is anxiety, grief, abuse, or even a tough breakup – there will be no judgment from me. Help is just a phone call away.
I use an eclectic approach influenced by Person-Centered therapy, so expect our sessions to be conversational. I also draw inspiration from Gestalt methods, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, and other forms of trauma support I learned from working with people of all ages. I want to explore your history and understand the root causes of your stress.
Our counseling sessions will allow you to express freely and get the most out of therapy. Hopefully, my methods could help you find your voice, value your authenticity and uniqueness, and eventually reach your goals. I also believe in the power of introspection and self-acceptance, two ingredients necessary for growth and healing. I hope to hear from you!

Orli Firestein
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Are you struggling to connect with others or feel alone? Perhaps this leads to frustration or alienation. Or maybe you find yourself frequently putting others' needs above your own, to the point where you feel run-down and emotionally exhausted. You may be facing a major life change or decision, either for yourself or for your family. In these situations, it can be challenging to tap into your own thoughts or cope with overwhelming emotions. It can be hard to know where to start, but you don't have to do it on your own!
