Allyson Stephens
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
I’m glad you are here. There is a reason you are here, and I understand how vulnerable this can be. It is so brave that you are here and ready to start your healing journey. My name is Allyson Stephens and I specialize in trauma informed care. I have personally healed from generational trauma and done my work in order to better understand myself and how trauma impacts the body and mind.
I am trained in trauma interventions and in the process of getting EMDR certified. I can help you explore what your body is telling you and help explore how to heal from past experiences. I can offer support through trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, trouble having emotions, and many more.
When you come into my office, I want you to be able to be your true self and not have to mask your authenticity. I want you to feel heard, safe, and understood. I look forward to starting this journey with you.

Samire Qosaj
Counselor/Therapist, Licensed practicing counselor
I strive to create a space where you can show up as your full self whether you feel loud, quiet, curious, or uncertain. If you are an immigrant, a first-generation American, or a neurodivergent individual navigating the intersections of culture, faith, and identity, you are not alone. As a first-generation Muslim American, with English as my second language, I have personally experienced many of these layered identities and continue to reflect on them in my own journey. I understand how complex, challenging, and meaningful this process can be.

Dr Todd Giardina
Psychologist, PhD, Counseling Psychology
Have you felt "stuck" and unable to make that change you so desire? Do you hear from people that you're "not living up to your potential" or "you're so great," but you just don't feel it? Are your relationships plagued by anxiety or distress? These are the things I am expert in managing. I focus largely on work with women, being that I can "speak" the male and female language and navigate relationship issues. I also take a feminist, empowerment focus in our work - we build on your specific strengths, and take into account your objective limitations. Everyone can find happiness, let's find yours, together!

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.
