Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
I work with high achievers, professionals, executives, and driven individuals who look capable on the outside but feel overwhelmed, self-critical, or stuck in constant overthinking. You may be managing career pressure, anxiety, burnout, perfectionism, procrastination, relationship stress, or difficulty setting boundaries. Even when things look successful from the outside, it can feel exhausting to keep pushing while privately second-guessing yourself.
My approach is practical, direct, and focused on helping you make meaningful changes in your day-to-day life. We will work on understanding the patterns that keep you stuck, building confidence in your decisions, improving boundaries, managing stress more effectively, and creating a healthier relationship with work, achievement, and responsibility. The goal is not just insight, but real progress.

Dr. Tatiana Turo-Handy | Licensed Psychologist (CO) | Bilingual: Spanish & English | PSYPACT‑Authorized
Becoming a parent is one of the most profound transitions in life and it can also be one of the most challenging. I specialize in supporting individuals and families through the full spectrum of the perinatal journey, including fertility struggles, pregnancy and postpartum mood and anxiety disorders, birth trauma, perinatal grief and loss, and the complex emotional adjustment to parenthood.
I also work with adults experiencing generalized anxiety, depression, and interpersonal difficulties, offering a grounded, culturally responsive, and collaborative therapeutic space.
As a bilingual psychologist, I provide care in both Spanish and English. I also conduct comprehensive immigration psychological evaluations, including N‑648, T‑Visa, U‑Visa, VAWA, and Asylum evaluations.

Iam Jophiel, LCSW, SEP, CPAT, CCTP-II
Therapist, @ Embodied Sovereignty Therapy
I’m here to support you! I believe that you are more than what has happened to you, the roles you have learned to carry, or the ways you have adapted to survive. Therapy can offer a space to reconnect with yourself beneath those experiences, while honoring the wisdom, complexity, and humanity you already bring with you.
I approach my work with you with curiosity, compassion, intuition, and deep respect for your autonomy. My intention is to offer a relationship and space where you can feel seen and supported, listen more deeply to yourself, and explore what becomes possible when you have greater access to awareness, choice, and your own embodied wisdom.

Dr. Kristyn Neckles
Psychologist, Psy.D.
You may be successful, capable, and accustomed to handling a lot, yet still find yourself feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, anxious, or simply tired of holding everything together. Perhaps you are navigating burnout, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, a major life transition, or the pressure of being the person others consistently depend on.
I work with adults and couples who want more than a place to simply talk. Together, we make sense of the patterns keeping you stuck, strengthen the tools you already possess, and develop practical strategies for meaningful and lasting change. My approach is warm, collaborative, culturally responsive, and gently direct, with therapy tailored to your experiences, values, relationships, and goals.
You do not have to wait until life is falling apart to seek support. Therapy can also be a space to pause, gain clarity, strengthen your relationships, reconnect with yourself, and decide how you want to move forward. My goal is to help you move beyond simply managing life toward living with greater intention, connection, and resilience.
