Kiersten Lipinski
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-C
I strive to provide quality care to all my clients. I do this by holding these three strong values for my practice:
Compassion: Demonstrating kindness and understanding, especially during difficult times. I support my clients in feeling cared for and valued as they embark on their wellness journey
Authenticity: It’s important to be vulnerable in therapy. I embrace uncomfortable conversations and strive to be honest with all my clients to best support you with your needs and goals
Empowerment: I help my clients develop their own skills, strengths, and coping mechanisms. I understand that you know your life and challenges better than anyone else. I am simply a third party person to encourage self-efficacy and autonomy.

Jeannette Craigfeld
Psychologist, Psy.D., Licensed Psychologist
I tend to work particularly well with clients who struggle with being compassionate towards themselves and have spent much of their life focused on what others expect of them, getting further away from their own inner voice. My aim is to help clients discover and embrace their authentic selves so they can pursue what they truly value in life. My therapy style is strengths-based, collaborative, and flexible, integrating multiple approaches to therapy. I am excited to get to know you as an individual and figure out what approach to therapy will best fit your unique needs. I know that reaching out for therapy can be a vulnerable experience. I hope you are giving yourself credit for taking this first step.

Through a collaborative, creative style we will approach sessions as a mindful opportunity to model ideal well-being and interpersonal practices so that you can feel confident in who you are.

Developing a strong therapeutic relationship is essential to achieving positive and lasting outcomes for clients.

Shelby Willoughby
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LMSW
Are you experiencing difficulty with life adjustments or social connectedness? I am passionate about working with those who are struggling with eating disorders, trauma, anxiety, grief, relational and social difficulties, and members of the LQBTQIA+ community. I believe that the foundation of developing an authentic self is understanding the body's response to life experiences and understanding how it functions under stress. Together, we will create a safe, supportive, and trauma-aware space to begin healing.
In settings such as partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient, and outpatient, I have worked with adults and teens experiencing binge eating, purging, anorexia, orthorexia, excessive exercise, OSFED, ARFID, and body image issues. Throughout sessions, I complete evaluations to determine whether you or a loved one requires more intensive/supportive eating disorder treatment.
In addition, I complete bariatric evaluations that are required for the surgical process. This service helps determine readiness, address any concerns about underlying eating disorder behavior, provide pre/post therapeutic support, and explore alternatives to surgery. I am trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to assist patient's needs and use collaborative methodologies to facilitate supportive communication, reconnection, problem solving, and positive decision-making with teens, adults, and families. I hope to hear from you and look forward to jump starting your mental health journey.
