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.

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.

Karen Nadel
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I believe therapy is most meaningful when it helps people develop a deeper understanding of themselves while creating practical change in their everyday lives. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, feeling stuck in a difficult transition, or trying to change patterns that have been affecting your relationships or well-being, therapy can offer a space to slow down, gain perspective, and move forward with greater clarity.
As a licensed clinical psychologist with more than 20 years of experience, I work with adolescents, adults, and families. My background includes inpatient and outpatient care, emergency settings, and university counseling environments. These experiences have shaped my belief that effective therapy requires both a thoughtful understanding of each person’s individual circumstances and a willingness to adapt treatment to their specific needs.
My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in evidence-based treatment. I integrate cognitive-behavioral strategies with Internal Family Systems and other therapeutic approaches when appropriate. I am interested not only in helping clients manage symptoms, but also in understanding the thoughts, emotions, relationships, and experiences that contribute to their difficulties. Together, we identify meaningful goals and develop strategies that support lasting growth.
I have particular experience working with anxiety, panic, OCD, insomnia, depression, trauma, grief, self-image concerns, and major life transitions. I also work with parents and families who are navigating challenges in communication, relationships, and emotional well-being.
I recognize that beginning therapy can feel unfamiliar or difficult, and finding the right therapist matters. My goal is to create an environment in which you feel respected, understood, and comfortable being honest. I see therapy as a partnership, one in which we work together to help you feel more capable, connected, and engaged in your life.
