Ariana Marciniak
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA
Ariana is passionate about working with populations holding intersectional identities. She supports adolescence and young adults in navigating their identity, relationships, and life transitions. As a queer, multiethnic therapist, she also has a passion for working with LGBTQ+ folks and people of color, holding space for the ways oppression, intergenerational trauma, and systemic barriers intersect with mental health.
As a multicultural, multiethnic therapist of Mexican and Polish heritage, I understand what it’s like to exist in the in-between—navigating identity, belonging, and the push and pull of different cultural expectations. I work closely with couples and those in non-monogamous relationships, using the Gottman Method, attachment-based therapy, and relational interventions to uncover disconnections and help you experience your relationships in their fullest, healthiest form. I also support couples working through sexual discrepancies, ineffective communication, and patterns of conflict that create distance rather than connection. Using Nonviolent Communication (NVC), I help partners develop deeper understanding, express needs with clarity, and cultivate emotional and physical intimacy in ways that feel safe and fulfilling for both partners.

I am a legally-blind counselor who listens carefully to client's needs to determine what works and what may not be effective. A collaborative approach is used to meet your needs. If you prefer a direct and interactive clinician that is my style. However, I'm flexible and integrate client preferences to achieve clients goals.

Joy Powell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MA Socio, MSW, LCSW
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a master’s degree in Sociology, my therapeutic practice is built on a deep understanding that healing does not happen in a vacuum, it is shaped by the systems we live within, the roles we are asked to play, and the identities we carry. This dual lens allows me to support clients in ways that are both deeply personal and socially aware, bridging emotional insight with an understanding of the wider cultural and structural influences on our lives.
In our work together, I will help you explore not only your internal landscape—your thoughts, emotions, and patterns—but also how your lived experiences have been shaped by family systems, societal expectations, and cultural norms. Together, we will cultivate a therapeutic space where your humanity is deeply acknowledged and your full self is supported and respected.
Clients often tell me they feel truly heard, not just for what they are going through, but for the context in which those struggles have taken root. This kind of care can be transformational, especially for those who have felt misunderstood or pressured to “fix” themselves without first feeling safe enough to truly BE themselves.
Therapy with me is not about offering quick fixes, it is about co-creating a relationship that is grounded in trust, reflection, and steady support. I offer a warm, down-to-earth, and thoughtful presence that invites curiosity, connection, and sustainable change. If you are seeking a therapist who honors both your personal story and the world that shaped it, I would be honored to walk alongside you on your journey toward deeper understanding and lasting well-being.
