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.

Dr. John Nelson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I believe effective therapy begins with understanding the whole person—not just the problem that brings someone to treatment. As a clinical psychologist with extensive experience in clinical, forensic, and organizational settings, I provide thoughtful, evidence-based care for concerns such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, work-related stress, relationship difficulties, sleep problems, substance use, and suicide-risk management. My goal is to create a respectful, collaborative environment where clients can develop practical skills, gain insight, and move toward meaningful change. If you are looking for a psychologist who combines professional expertise with compassion and individualized care, I invite you to contact me to discuss whether we may be a good fit.

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.
