Know Thyself Healing & Therapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW, LPCC, LGSW
Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, trauma, family changes, or emotional struggles that leave them feeling stuck or unsure of themselves. If you’ve been carrying these challenges on your own, you’re not alone.
As both a therapist and the founder of Know Thyself Healing & Therapy, I believe healing happens in safe, honest, and supportive relationships. My own journey—through adoption, trauma, parenting a child with mental health challenges, divorce, remarriage, and spiritual growth—deeply informs the way I show up for clients with compassion, understanding, and respect.
While I work directly with many clients, I also lead a team of dedicated clinicians who share this same commitment. Together, we create a space where you can feel truly seen, build insight, and develop the skills needed to move forward. Whether you work with me or another member of our team, our goal is the same: to help you reconnect with your strengths and create meaningful, lasting change.

Dr. Katy Crone
Psychologist, Psy.D., LCP
My approach to therapy is collaborative and is aimed at helping you develop long-lasting health (both as an individual and in your relationships). I'll help you address individual concerns such as anxiety, depression, self-esteem, panic, sleep issues, job fulfillment, and family stress. Initial sessions will involve a thorough intake so I can be sure I understand the breadth of your background and current problems. I will help you construct individualized goals for therapy, and we will agree on how to best work together. I utilize a variety of approaches and techniques including psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral therapies.
People struggling with emotional or relational problems have often had painful experiences with others. Therapy offers a safe place to revisit these experiences and break patterns that cause you sadness, fear, or anger. Therapy can help you solve problems in relationships and all types of life transitions, while remaining true to yourself.

Self Psychology
Michael Brustein
Psychologist, Psy.D
Often, perfectionistic and high-striving individuals are both curious about therapy and ambivalent about seeking it. They may feel excited by the possibility of understanding themselves more deeply, while also unsettled by the idea of asking for help with one’s own mind. For people who are used to being competent, self-reliant, and in control, therapy can feel exposing at first.
Michael helps clients understand this hesitation not as resistance, but as part of the work itself: the wish to grow alongside the fear of needing anything at all. Many clients become more comfortable once they see that therapy is not simply about “talking about feelings,” but about learning to observe the mind with more honesty and precision.
Therapy becomes a disciplined space for reflection, which itself can be a powerful tool for developing emotional clarity, self-awareness, and greater freedom in how one responds to pressure, relationships, and oneself. Michael is also attentive to the ways thoughtful, high-striving people can use insight, analysis, mindfulness, or even spiritual ideas to move around painful emotional material rather than through it. When this pattern is noticed early, it can be addressed directly and compassionately, helping therapy remain grounded, emotionally honest, and clinically useful.

Julie Griffin
Psychologist, PsyD
I pride myself on my ability to connect with others easily and create a sense of comfort when interacting. I recognize that speaking to a complete stranger about your private experiences can feel uncomfortable and even scary. I seek to invite you into a shared space in which we can become curious together about whatever is causing you distress. Hopefully, the relationship you build with me can empower you to heal and transform the relationship you have with yourself and significant others in your life. I can help you understand what it is that you are experiencing, how you learned to navigate stressors over time, and identify ways to adjust your responses to stress in order to prioritize healthy coping and valued choices.
