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.

Chris Scarberry
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
I co-own Healing Reflections Therapy: Diversity, Trauma, and Wellness Services with my partner Megan Garza. We each have over twenty-five years of experience working as therapists. We integrate those values into everything we do. I love the work that I do and especially enjoy helping to empower clients and help them to make their therapy goals and dreams a reality. I have a genuine and transparent approach with clients. I balance active listening with interpretations and feedback, while treating therapy as a fluid, nuanced conversation. I meet people where they are at and am informed, open and affirming of LGBTQ+ identities, chronic illness, kink and non-monogamous relationship dynamics. I welcome clients from all walks of life and marginalized communities. I enjoy meeting with people from a variety of spiritual backgrounds, atheists, Christians, Muslims, Jewish people etc, but do not reference mine or impose any spiritual agenda with my clients. In short, we only talk about it if it's important to you. My Masters Degree is in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy which enables me to skillfully work with individuals, couples, and adult family members. I view treatment as both of us collaboratively working toward your goals, utilizing your own insights and strengths as a basis for further development.

I do my best to listen in the service of understanding and provide thoughtful responsiveness, which I have found helps my clients connect to their inner life and with others. Using gentle honesty and compassion, I value autonomy and collaboration to help people feel less alone while finding a sense of purpose within their lives and in the world.

I offer compassionate, trauma-informed online therapy for individuals seeking healing, clarity, and meaningful change. My practice is rooted in mindfulness, somatic awareness, and evidence-based therapy, and I am certified in Compassionate Inquiry®, a trauma-informed approach developed by Dr. Gabor Maté that supports deep emotional processing and nervous system regulation. Clients often reach out when they feel overwhelmed, disconnected from themselves, or ready to move beyond survival patterns related to anxiety, depression, addiction recovery, grief, or trauma. Therapy with me is collaborative, culturally sensitive, and grounded in safety, helping clients reconnect with their inner wisdom and build lasting emotional resilience.
