Dr. Nicole Parkes
Psychologist, PsyD
Are you sick and tired of feeling down, anxious, stressed out, or out of sorts? Do you feel like you can’t talk to the people in your life about your problems because they brush you off or they just don’t get it? I specialize in helping people get through the rough patches. Depression, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma—whatever it is pulling you down, I can help bring you back up. Healing is possible and you have everything inside of you to heal and to live a really beautiful life, that’s just perfect for you. Sometimes we get stuck and have old, unresolved pain that prevents us from living in our own truth and light.

Sara Smith
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
“The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago, the second-best time is today!” It is both a passion and a privilege to be invited into people's lives and relationships, and to help them become better versions of themselves and better connected to themselves and those they love. I work with couples who feel disconnected in their relationships to help them find their way back to each other. I also help individuals who are in a difficult season of life find their way back to themselves.
