Ann Abbey
Limited License Psychologist, MA, LLP, RYT
Do you ever lie awake replaying conversations, wondering if you said the wrong thing, or wishing you could take care of everyone without feeling so depleted? Maybe you move through your days on autopilot, doing everything you’re “supposed” to do, yet still feeling an ache inside. You want to slow down, feel more present and experience real moments of connection and joy. But no matter how hard you try, something still feels off. You just want to know that you’re going to be okay.
Together, we’ll gently explore what’s keeping you up at night and what patterns aren’t serving you anymore. You’ll have a warm, grounded space to bring your worries, your exhaustion, your questions and the parts of yourself you’ve kept hidden. I’ll meet you there. With care, honesty, and the kind of support that lets you show up exactly as you are.
In our work, you’ll begin to reconnect with your inner steadiness, soften the fear and self-doubt that keep you stuck, strengthen the relationships that matter and make room for more ease and clarity.
Sessions are available by video or phone, making it simple to get the support you need. If this resonates, I’d love to talk. You can reach out through my website or give me a call. I look forward to connecting.

Carter Doyle
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP-BC, EMT-P
I work with adults who feel worn down by trauma, spiritual or religious harm, and identity-related stress. Many clients arrive feeling “functional” but internally stuck in fear, shutdown, shame, or exhaustion. My office is a place to bring the real story without needing to minimize it.
I’m a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who blends psychotherapy with careful, collaborative medication support when useful. Sessions often include parts work informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS) and EMDR principles, with practical skills from ACT to help you move toward values, not just symptom control. I welcome LGBTQ+ clients and people recovering from SOGICE experiences with special care and respect. We move at your pace and build change meant to last.

Kourtney Bennett
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Therapy can offer a space to better understand yourself and the experiences that have shaped you. I help adults make sense of trauma, neurodivergence, burnout, identity, and life transitions by understanding their experiences within the context of their relationships, environments, and the systems they have navigated. Together, we'll build practical skills, deepen self-understanding, and create meaningful, lasting change in a compassionate, collaborative space.

Paula Kirsch
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, CST
Some things are hard to say out loud. Maybe you've never quite found the words, or the right person to say them to. Maybe you've been carrying questions about your body, your desire, your relationship, or who you are, quietly and for a long time.
You don't have to do that here.
I'm Paula Kirsch, Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Sex Therapist, and I work with women navigating sexual health concerns, LGBTQ+ individuals and couples, and people in ENM and kink-engaged relationships. Not as a specialty I added on, but as the heart of my practice. I understand your world, your language, and the particular weight of the things you may have never said to anyone.
Whatever you bring into this space, I'm not going to flinch, rush you, or hand you a formula. We'll sit with it together and figure out where to go from there. That's the work, and I genuinely love doing it. Book your Free Consultation on my website.

Dharele Lewis
Therapist, LLMSW, EMDR-Trained
I help adults who are carrying quiet pressure like anxiety, overwhelm, identity shifts, grief, or emotional exhaustion and need a space that feels real, safe, and collaborative. My style is warm, direct, and culturally attuned. I believe therapy works best when you don’t have to shrink yourself or explain away your lived experiences.
In our work, we explore what’s happening beneath the surface, strengthen what’s already resilient in you, and build practical tools that support long-term change. I blend cognitive, somatic, and narrative approaches to help you understand your patterns and reconnect with parts of yourself you’ve had to put on pause to survive.
If you’re looking for a therapist who shows up with honesty, respect, and curiosity and who treats you like a whole person, not a diagnosis then I’d be honored to support your process.
