Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Edward Alderson
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC; NCC
Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of your next step? Do you want to make a change but do not know where to start?
Maybe you’re carrying stress, frustration, anxiety, depression, or a sense that something in your life just isn’t lining up the way you hoped. Those feelings are completely human—and they’re also signs that you’re ready for support. You don’t have to sort them out alone. I specialize in supporting clients dealing with mood & anxiety disorders, couples therapy, including emotional, physical, and sexual intimacy issues, ADHD, and men's mental health issues. I also work closely with LGBTQ clients.

Sarah Farris
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, LPC
I am trained in evidence-based practices for the treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), anxiety, panic and phobias, trichotillomania and skin picking (BFRBs), and athlete mental health. I offer a client-focused, non-judgmental environment where you can address feelings of uncertainty, learn and implement new skills, and make meaningful changes in your life. Together, we will examine the challenges you are facing, set clear goals, and develop a plan to minimize the impact of stress and anxiety on your daily functioning. Building trust is fundamental to the therapeutic relationship, and I strive to meet individuals where they are at the start of therapy. My approach is goal-oriented, supportive, and collaborative.

What makes therapy truly effective isn't just a technique — it's the relationship. I have spent over 20 years creating a space where clients feel genuinely seen, heard, and supported. My approach is warm, collaborative, and deeply personalized, blending cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness practices. I specialize in anxiety, depression, life transitions, and stress management. Whether you're facing a difficult season or simply ready to grow, I am committed to walking alongside you, helping you uncover your strengths and build the life you're working toward. If you're looking for a therapist who will truly invest in your journey, I'd love to connect.

Mary Gale Gurnsey
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I became passionate about this work because I've witnessed how deeply relationship trauma affects people's ability to trust themselves and others. Many of my clients come in feeling lost, unsure of what healthy actually looks like, and carrying the weight of past relationships where they lost their sense of self.
What I love most is helping people recognize that they're not broken — they're responding logically to what they've experienced. By understanding your attachment patterns and past dynamics, we can build a different future. My goal is to help you feel secure in yourself while building relationships where you're truly valued as an equal partner.
I believe therapy should be collaborative, non-judgmental, and respectful of your pace.

Nicole Houde
Pre-Licensed Professional
Many people come to therapy feeling stuck in relationships, life direction, or their sense of self, even when things appear fine on the outside. You may find yourself questioning who you are, repeating familiar relationship patterns, struggling to trust yourself, or feeling disconnected from parts of yourself. Therapy can be a place to slow down, make sense of what’s happening, and begin moving forward with greater clarity and confidence.
