Self Psychology
Paulina Birgiolaite
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW, CMNCS
Does setting boundaries feel uncomfortable or even unsafe? Do you find yourself overthinking, people-pleasing, or striving for perfection while quietly feeling exhausted? I specialize in helping women and helping professionals break free from burnout and reclaim their time, energy, and sense of self. Using evidence-based approaches like CBT and REBT, I offer a supportive space where real, practical change happens. If you’re ready for therapy that actually helps you move forward, I invite you to schedule a free 15-minute consultation.

Self Psychology
Michael Losoff
Psychologist, PhD
True change often requires more than just learning new coping skills; it requires an environment where you can safely explore the deeper layers of your experience. With over three decades of clinical practice, my approach is rooted in the belief that the relationship between therapist and client is the primary engine for lasting transformation. I specialize in a developmental psychodynamic model, which means, though our relationship, we explore what factors stand behind patterns that have been interfering with experiencing life in the way you really want, whether it be in relationships, at work or in leisure pursuits. If you have the interest or inclination, this exploration can also take place within a Jungian framework, looking at ways to understand ourselves more deeply, such as through dreams or creative productions, and to better integrate conscious and unconscious life.
I have particular expertise and experience working with trauma in a way that integrates emotional safety, the capacity for self-regulation and the mind-body connection. I also am well experienced working with late adolescents and young adults as they (and their families) navigate greater independence and autonomy, including when this navigation stalls, leaving the young person stuck and struggling to move forward or take steps to leave the parental home.
Whether we are working through the challenges of a major life transition or diving into the symbolic language of dreams through a Jungian lens, my goal is to help you move beyond temporary relief toward a more integrated, meaningful life. Whether you are a parent seeking support for your child or an adult looking to rediscover purpose in mid-life or retirement, I approach psychotherapy as a quintessential tool and the therapy relationship as a grounding and growth-oriented connection.

Beck Gardner
Pre-Licensed Professional, M.A.
I work alongside my clients to help them feel curious and gain understanding about the things they struggle with and themselves as people. My hope is that our collaborative effort to understand all of you will allow you to find solutions to the challenges you face in your own unique way. I know this can be a intimidating task; I try hard to help you feel supported in it, so you have the space to be curious about parts of yourself that might be hard to face alone.

Rachel Honaker, Depth Counseling Services
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I started working with clients 10 years ago while in grad school. I also became a client 10 years ago! Over the years as I’ve worked on both sides of the proverbial couch, I’ve learned that therapy can look different depending on who I am sitting with. Because it is who you are and what you bring that helps shape the space. There is no “one size fits all” therapy approach, it’s about YOU. That can be intimidating, and that’s why I’m here. No matter who you are, where you’re at, and what you bring, we’re going to co-create a space where you get to meaningfully connect with yourself and the people in your life by putting your needs and wellbeing front and center.
