Daniel Johnson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPCC, NCC
I have over 10 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate mental health; and have been in private practice for 5 years as Gossamer Psychotherapy, LLC. I want to help you access the fulfilling life you desire and aim to address your specific issues. Together we will find value, meaning, and purpose in your life; and collaborate toward building a strong inner ally aligned with your best interest.
It is no mystery that we experience anxiety, depression, worry, feel stuck, struggle with relationships, and are burdened by life. As such, mental wellness does not have to be a mystery either. Maybe you struggle with decision making and doing what is best for you. Perhaps you find it hard to know what you want in life, and just keep living life like there are no problems which perpetuates your unease and sense of distress. Maybe you feel overwhelmed by negative emotions, and that hinders your ability to be honest with yourself and the people in your life or appropriately express your needs.
Email me, and I will help you change your life in a way that restores peace within you, honors your sovereignty, and helps you contribute your best to society. After all, empowered, balanced individuals are the foundation of strong families and communities- and I want to help you access the fulfilling life you desire.

Dr. Nnenna Nwankwo
Psychologist, PsyD
Over my 15+ years of clinical experience, I have come to appreciate therapy as an opportunity to go within and connect to what matters most, emerging at the end of that journey with self compassion, increased self awareness and self concept, as well as clarity for moving forward. My clinical approach is integrative and grounded in existential-humanistic psychology which is a style that helps one explore how to live authentically, creating meaning from life's challenges and chaos. My specialities include high achieving BIPOC with intersecting identities, first and second generation immigrants, and individuals navigating infertility and challenges with family building.

Tara Murphy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I believe every human being has inherent value, yet so many of us carry deep shame from past experiences that tell us otherwise—messages like “I’m bad,” “I’m too much,” “I’m unlovable,” or “If I show myself, I’ll be rejected.” These beliefs can quietly shape how we see ourselves, our relationships, and what we think is possible. In therapy, I work to help uncover and soften these old burdens so they no longer hold you back. My style is warm, collaborative, and deeply respectful of the courage it takes to show up. Together, we’ll build a space where you can feel seen in your wholeness, reconnect with your own inner wisdom, and move toward a life that feels freer and more grounded.

Ema Thoen
Psychologist, Student Intern, LPCC candidate
Hi! I’m Ema (pronounced like Emma) (she/they) - and I'm so glad you’re here.
Have you ever felt like you don’t quite belong in life? Do feelings of being overwhelmed, anxious, ungrounded, or unmotivated sometimes take over? These are all normal human emotions, and I am dedicated to understanding the “why” behind them. I believe those uncomfortable feelings and moments are here to communicate important messages to us.
Having an affinity for the unconventional, I value the unique strengths and differences that shape who we are. As a late-diagnosed neurodivergent human and someone who developed an invisible physical disability later in life, I understand the challenges of navigating a world not designed with differences in mind. My background as a maker and creator—rooted in multidisciplinary fine arts, teaching, and supporting non-profit communities—informs how I foster a safe, creative, and inspiring space for therapy. I aim to build a genuine, collaborative partnership where you feel understood, empowered, and curious to explore new ways of being. I approach this work with compassion and an integrative mindset, celebrating your individuality while supporting resilience in the face of life’s challenges. I have a heartfelt interest in working with late-diagnosed neurodivergent individuals, as well as those experiencing anxiety, panic, depression, and life transitions.
With a deep commitment to disability advocacy, accessibility, inclusion, and safety, these values guide the foundations of my practice. For transparency, I am accompanied by my mobility assistance service dog during in-person sessions, as part of my own accessibility needs.
I am currently under the supervision of Taylor Ryan (Baez), working towards my LPCC licensure. I would love to meet you for a 15-minute consultation!

I’m Dr. Ilyssa Swartout, a licensed psychologist dedicated to helping adults and couples heal from past wounds and create meaningful change. My approach blends warmth, presence, and evidence-based therapy to help you move beyond old patterns and reconnect with your sense of worth and wholeness.
