Dr. John Nelson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I believe effective therapy begins with understanding the whole person—not just the problem that brings someone to treatment. As a clinical psychologist with extensive experience in clinical, forensic, and organizational settings, I provide thoughtful, evidence-based care for concerns such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, work-related stress, relationship difficulties, sleep problems, substance use, and suicide-risk management. My goal is to create a respectful, collaborative environment where clients can develop practical skills, gain insight, and move toward meaningful change. If you are looking for a psychologist who combines professional expertise with compassion and individualized care, I invite you to contact me to discuss whether we may be a good fit.

Aaliyah Gilbert
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSW
I offer a therapy space where you don’t have to have it all together to be supported. I work with teens, young adults, adults, and couples navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, and identity shifts, including the perinatal period and concerns around intimacy. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in culturally responsive, trauma-informed care. Together, we’ll explore what’s beneath the surface, build practical tools, and create space for meaningful, lasting change. If you’re ready for a space where you can be honest, supported, and understood, I invite you to reach out.
