Dr. L A McCrae
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCADC, FOT, CCTP, CCTSA
"Not everything that is faced can be changed. But nothing can be changed until it is faced." - James Baldwin
As a Black, queer, transmasculine, and neurodivergent scholar-practitioner, I view therapy as an act of radical liberation rather than social compliance. Grounded in the Black radical tradition, I partner with "Deep-Sea Divers"—scholars, activists, and survivors—to move beyond traditional talk therapy and into the realm of spiritual reclamation. My approach is direct and somatic, utilizing Sandplay, Somatic Focusing, and Bibliotherapy to map your internal geography and dismantle the "head trash" of carceral systems. Whether navigating neurodivergence, TBI recovery, or the cycles of dependency, we work collaboratively to honor your lived experience without moralistic shame. I do not sit as a detached observer, but as a witness to your evolution and a partner in your resistance against a broken world. My goal is your absolute autonomy, facilitating the heavy, holy work of unmasking and rewriting your testimony. If you are seeking a sanctuary where your identity is celebrated and your liberation is the priority, I am ready to dive with you.

Serenity Coaching & Counseling LLC
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC, LICSW, PsyD, LADC, LMFT, LCSW, MA
Counseling & Coaching compliment each other. Therapy focuses on addressing past traumas & mental health concerns, while coaching focuses on helping individuals achieve future goals & optimize their performance in specific areas. One often involves exploring the root causes of problems, helping clients process emotions & develop coping mechanisms and the other focuses on setting & achieving goals in the present & future, leveraging strengths, action-oriented strategies & resources for personal & professional development.

Kristy Harrington
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
My approach to therapy is relational, grounded and not overly clinical or directive. I approach our sessions with curiosity and relatability. I will help you gain a solid understanding of the root of your problems, to develop realistic expectations of yourself and others, and to ultimately be kinder and less harsh towards yourself. With greater self-awareness, you will have a greater capacity to decide what in your life needs to change and what may require gentle acceptance.

Beth Kurland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
As a licensed clinical psychologist, I draw on mind-body approaches and other evidence-based therapies to help people navigate anxiety, stress, stress related health challenges, life transitions, depression, grief, relationship issues, and times of feeling stuck. Over more than three decades in practice, I’ve witnessed the profound capacity we each have to heal and grow through therapy. I view this work as a collaborative process—one grounded in safety, trust, and genuine connection—where together we can explore how to help you move toward greater balance, resilience, and fulfillment. When the mind, body, and heart come into alignment, new possibilities for living fully begin to emerge.

Glenn Klein
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC
I approach each client with the assumption that you are coming to me with an intention to alleviate discontentment or suffering. I see my job as helping you articulate your reasons for seeking therapy, to understand the source of your issues, and to find strategies that bring relief.
