Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Something in you knows that what you're carrying runs deeper than the presenting problem.
Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable, and outwardly composed-yet internally they live with anxiety, depression, chronic tension or pain, relentless self-criticism, or a sense that something essential is blocked, muted, or just out of reach. These struggles may surface in mood, in the body, in behavior, or in relationships-including sexuality and intimacy-but they are rarely contained to any one area. They tend to reflect deeper emotional and relational patterns formed early in life, often before language, that continue to shape how a person approaches closeness, vulnerability, agency, pleasure, and self-expression.
My work centers on how early experience shapes the capacity for self-regulation, desire, connection, and meaning throughout life-and particularly on how people come to know what they need and want, how they learn to express or inhibit those impulses, and what happens when these capacities become conflicted, constricted, or difficult to sustain.
I integrate psychoanalytic hypnotherapy, somatic awareness, and clinical sexology within a reflective, depth-oriented process. Hypnosis functions as a central clinical tool-creating conditions for deeper internal contact with emotional, bodily, and unconscious experience that can be difficult to reach through conversation alone. The aim is not only relief from symptoms, but the development of a more coherent and compassionate relationship with one's inner life: sensations, emotions, impulses, and desires.
This work is oriented toward lasting psychological change-and toward greater freedom in how one relates to oneself, one's body, and one's capacity for connection, authenticity, and vitality. It is best suited to those ready to move beyond symptom management toward something more fundamental.

Dr. Danielle Goodwin
Psychologist, Psy.D.
As an experienced psychologist with over 20 years of experience, it is my honor to assist you in working towards your journey to psychological wellness. At the heart of my practice is a dedication to helping others to heal, grow and empower you to find hope from the most difficult experiences. Great emphasis is placed on building a trustworthy relationship and providing compassionate care so individuals can access their inner wisdom, change ineffective thoughts and behaviors, process emotions, problem-solve challenging situations, and learn tools to help you cope. While Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is often utilized, strategies are tailored to meet each individual's unique needs and desires. Focus is placed on the whole individual (mind, body, emotional and spiritual/faith for those who desire). I look forward to providing guidance and support every step of the way on your journey to wellness so you can learn action-oriented tools to help you and/or your family create effective change and become the best version you are meant to be. Please call via telephone for a free consultation today to see if we would work well together and if I can meet your needs.

Maria T. Alonso, Ph.D.
Psychologist
I believe that psychotherapy offers you an opportunity to examine your life story and in the process, gain new perspective and insight to re-write it and create a new narrative. While you may come to therapy with a problem to explore and address, I will also help you identify your personal character strengths and ways to nurture them, in order to support your personal growth and achieve your goals. I am a warm and supportive psychotherapist with an eclectic therapuetic approach, using both Western evidence based interventions as well as Eastern treatment approaches to help promote your healing and growth. I believe that collaboration, openness, curiosity and humor are key ingredients to a successful therapeutic experience. Psychotherapy is an adventure and I look forward to walking by your side on your chosen journey.

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.

Dr. Michael M. Grant
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist PhD, MBA
I have been working with people for over 25 years and love to see people take flight and fly again in their lives. I never judge you or what you have done or who you tell me you are. Rather, I help you discern what you WANT to be and what you want to do and work to help you be and do that. My job is to help you become the very best you you can be. I encourage, support, comfort, challenge, and do all of these with humor and warmth. I simply don't think there is any other way for me to work.
