Aaliyah Gilbert
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSW
Life transitions can bring uncertainty, stress, and a mix of emotions—even when the change is expected or positive. I support clients as they navigate major shifts such as career changes, relationship changes, identity development, and new stages of adulthood. In our work together, we focus on processing what is shifting, making sense of emotional responses, and identifying what stability and direction look like for you moving forward. My goal is to help you feel more grounded and confident as you adjust to change, while building clarity, resilience, and self-trust along the way.

Margaret Shouse
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Life can be so unpredictable, and it is difficult to navigate these changes alone. I am here on this journey with you to figure out the struggles you are facing and how to best make this time as manageable and as smooth as we can. That does not mean there wont be bumps in the road- thats life. However, I am here to help bring you back up and to work collaboratively on how you want your life to be.

Anne Zakaras
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC, ATR-BC, PMH-C
Change—even when it is chosen or positive—can completely disrupt our sense of stability, leaving us feeling untethered, anxious, or unsure of who we are anymore. Anne provides a warm, open, and collaborative space to help you safely ground yourself during periods of significant life transition. As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, she partners with individuals to navigate the shifting landscapes of identity, routine, and expectation, helping them move through uncertainty with clarity and confidence.
Anne’s integrative approach is uniquely designed for seasons of change. By combining traditional talk therapy with Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and creative art therapy, she helps clients process complex emotions that are often hard to articulate. Whether you are navigating the profound shift into parenthood (maternal, paternal, or parental mental health), weathering a new medical diagnosis, processing deep grief and bereavement, or restructuring your life after professional burnout or a career pivot, Anne will help you build practical coping strategies to bridge the gap between where you’ve been and where you are going.
