Psychoanalytic
Eileen Griffin
Psychologist, PsyD
Welcome! I work with adults who are ready to look beneath the surface and understand what’s really driving their struggles. I’m particularly drawn to the complicated places where old experiences show up in current relationships, self-doubt, anxiety, grief, or the ways we protect ourselves.
I believe therapy should be a place where you can be honest without having to perform, explain everything perfectly, or make your pain more palatable. We’ll take your experience seriously while also being willing to question the stories you’ve been carrying about yourself.
The work can be challenging. It can also be surprisingly relieving to finally have somewhere to put all of it.

Sandra Lashley
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Psychoanalyst in private practice for the past 20 years. I obtained my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology in 2006 from Loyola University, Maryland and completed my internship training at John's Hopkins University Counseling Center. My style is collaborative, supportive and highly personalized to each individual. My training has been in a psychodynamic/ psychoanalytic and generalist model which means an emphasis on understanding you as a person and our looking at the process of understanding your unique mind together and the ways you are currently suffering. The ultimate goal is always growth, alleviation of suffering and a greater sense of emotional and psychological freedom.

Psychoanalytic
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.

Psychoanalytic
Sarah Gersick
Psychologist, Ph.D.
When new stressors arise, they can activate old patterns that make it hard to cope in a healthy way. It helps to have a place to talk through what is happening in your life today while also working to understand how the past is informing the present. I am an experienced psychodynamic psychologist who can help you do both, so you can reduce distress you are feeling now, and make deep changes that lead to better coping in the future.
