Mira Cymerman
Psychologist, , Psy.D.
What makes therapy most successful is not necessarily the technique; it is the relationship that is shared between the clinician and client. I believe growth happens in a space where you feel seen and never judged. You are a whole person, rather than a diagnosis. The foundation of my practice is warm, collaborative care. Just a willingness to be curious together is more than enough to get started. There is never a timeline that we need to rush to meet. Our steady, collaborative process can help you to find your way back to hope, one step at a time.

Jesika Doty - Amphora Mental Health Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
Life can be full of twists and turns, ups and downs. Utilizing many modalities to provide a framework for your growth and learning by first meeting you exactly where you are, is the foundation of my practice. I help you navigate the twists and turns and the ups and downs by offering a safe space to explore your history of trauma, abuse, loss, grief, and transitions. I specialize in trauma and grief work as I have walked this path as a young widow. You've made this first step towards an abundant life - take the next step and reach out for a free consultation to make sure we're the right fit.

Abelee Groff
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
My practice is grounded in trauma-informed, attachment-based therapy that emphasizes emotional safety, collaboration, and respect for each client’s values and relationships. I work with adults navigating anxiety, complex trauma, emotional regulation challenges, and relationship stress among other issues.
I take an integrative, evidence-based approach that incorporates Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic and nervous system–informed therapy, attachment-focused work, and emotion-focused interventions. While my work is rooted in clinical research, I also recognize that not all healing can be fully explained by science alone. I remain open to the many ways the mind, body, and inner world interact, honoring intuition, meaning-making, and embodied experience as part of the therapeutic process.
I provide affirming, nonjudgmental care for clients from diverse backgrounds, including LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent adults. Many clients seek my practice for support around relationship dynamics, intimacy concerns, and navigating relationships that may not follow traditional models. I aim to create a space where clients feel understood without needing to educate their therapist.
My goal is to help clients develop greater emotional resilience, healthier relationships, and a more secure connection with themselves and others.

Authentically You Counseling
Treatment Center, LCMHC
Scheduling at AYC is easy - schedule an intake as soon as next week. Finding the courage to be true to yourself despite the challenges you have to overcome is the ultimate goal of therapy. I believe one of the greatest grievances is living an inauthentic life with who you are. Regardless of what you’ve been through, if something is stopping you from living your truth - if fear prevents you from engaging in life the way you want or you are attempting to live up to some societal or personal expectation so far out of reach it hurts - If something is preventing you from living your fullest life, you can make a difference!
I want to help you reach your fullest potential according to your personal truth, values and beliefs. If we embark on this journey together, you will be the driver. I will simply help you see the different paths to reaching your end goal. In the end, you must be true to yourself in choosing the path you wish to take - or none at all.
Finding your truth sometimes means making a decision about whether or not to live your full truth. We can work together to help you explore your options to make the right choice for You. Making the call (or email) to start your journey is the first step - Let us start your journey together!

Jillian Luz
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, ATR
I work from a non-pathologizing lens and strive to support my clients in exploring what past or current traumatic experiences, including personal/specific, cultural, and systemic, may be currently impacting their self-view and functioning.
I offer EMDR and IFS treatment to support processing past trauma (including chronic, relational, and childhood traumas) and grief & loss that may be causing current distress, unhappiness, relationship challenges, negative beliefs about one's self or abilities, and a lack of personal fulfillment. I also specialize in working with neurodivergent clients, especially late/adult diagnosis.
