Carolyn Murphy, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Counseling Psychology
My approach to therapy is interactive and supportive, with an overall goal of increasing self-awareness and coping skills to help promote the kind of changes that you would like to see. I believe that the quality of the therapist/client relationship is paramount to effective therapy. Because of this, I highly encourage you to choose a therapist that feels like a "good fit" for you. I always start with an initial consultation appointment where I can learn more about your background and reasons for seeking therapy, answer any questions you may have, and then plan together from there. Starting therapy can feel daunting or overwhelming for many people, so it is important that we work at a pace that feels comfortable to you.

Greta Carlson, Psy.D., ABPP
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
Welcome! I'm a clinical psychologist with nearly a decade of clinical experience working with children, adolescents, and adults of all ages. I see children, adolescents, and young adults aged 5 and up with depression, chronic PTSD and dissociation, anxiety, OCD, and ADHD. My clients present with a range of concerns, including anxiety, ruminative thoughts, shame feelings, and perfectionism. Having had extensive experience in both psychodynamic psychotherapy and Trauma Focused-CBT, I take an integrative approach when working with clients-I collaborate with you and your child to tailor your goals and address needs for treatment.
While we would tailor treatment to further draw out and address your goals, I work to help you get to know yourself-to name and regulate a range of feelings, identify negative beliefs about yourself, others, or the world, and find healthier ways to cope with strong feelings. I also consider how your past history is relevant to your present relationships.
The decision to seek therapy is such a courageous one. I think, oftentimes, we can tell ourselves that we can "think through" or "solve problems" entirely on our own-it's so difficult to reach out for support! I work at a pace that feels manageable for you or your child, focusing on creating a warm and collaborative alliance for therapy and assessment.

The Joy of You
Hypnotherapist, CCHt, NWP, EP, B.Msc
Hello, my name is Joy, and I am a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist. My area of expertise is helping individuals harness the power of their subconscious mind to create positive change.
Hypnotherapy is a type of therapy that involves hypnosis, which is a state of focused attention and heightened suggestibility. This type of therapy can address a variety of issues, including stress management, overcoming fears and phobias, improving sleep quality, and boosting self-confidence.
During our sessions, we will work together to identify your goals and create a personalized treatment plan. You will be guided into a relaxed state where you can access and influence your subconscious mind. It's important to note that you will always be in control during the process.
It's essential to understand that hypnotherapy is not about making you do things you don't want to do. Instead, it's about empowering you to make the changes you desire.
I look forward to working with you on your journey towards self-improvement.
