Louis Hoffman
Psychologist, PhD
I believe psychotherapy is most effective when it is grounded in a genuine, collaborative relationship characterized by empathy, authenticity, and respect. My approach is existential-humanistic and relational, recognizing that each person brings a unique history, perspective, and way of experiencing the world. Rather than viewing people primarily through the lens of symptoms or diagnoses, I seek to empathetically understand the whole person, including their struggles, strengths, relationships, values, and aspirations.
I see therapy as an opportunity not only to address emotional distress but also to deepen self-understanding, explore life's challenges, and discover new possibilities for living more authentically and meaningfully. I strive to create a therapeutic space where clients feel genuinely heard, understood, and challenged in ways that support growth. I believe meaningful change emerges through authentic encounter, increased awareness, and the courage to engage more fully with ourselves, others, and the world.

Emily Hurlin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LISW, LCSW
Most couples who reach out to me have already tried talking it through, sometimes for years, and they're worn out from having the same fight in slightly different words. I work differently. Drawing on PACT, Somatic Experiencing, and EMDR, I help partners notice what's happening in their bodies and nervous systems when things go sideways, so change sticks where insight alone hasn't. I work with betrayal, gridlocked conflict, intimacy struggles, blended families, and couples preparing for marriage. If you're ready for something more than communication tips, I'd be glad to hear from you.

Annie Harton Kassell
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
You know how to hold everyone else together, and somewhere in the years of being a wife, a mother, the person everyone leans on, you lost track of yourself. I work with women who look fine on paper and are quietly aching underneath: the marriage that runs on logistics, the postpartum season no one warned you about, the identity that went missing after the wedding or the baby. I will not hand you a five-step plan. I sit with what is actually true and we work from there, whether that is couples work, steady individual work, or faith woven in when you want it and left aside when you do not. If any of this sounds like your life, reach out and we can talk about whether we are a good fit.

Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LMHC, LCPC
Are you looking to better manage stress? To improve your self-esteem, relationships, or emotion regulation? To heal from trauma or loss? To move away from avoidance, people pleasing, perfectionism or other habits that hold you back? Whether you seek to work on a specific goal or to focus more generally on self-exploration and growth, I am happy you are considering working with me. I am confident that we all possess a deep capacity for healing, resiliency, and connection. I strive to continually learn from and integrate multi-faceted modalities and theories of counseling to provide therapy that aligns with your individual needs and goals.
I work with clients affected by depression; anxiety; systems of oppression, any form of trauma or abuse; life transition difficulties; emotion dysregulation; attachment and relationship concerns; disordered eating patterns, body image issues; obsessive compulsive tendencies; phobias; gender dysphoria; and identity concerns.
