Susan Estomin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
There are times in our lives when we all need help recognizing and understanding what life is trying to tell us, when we are faced with challenges, crises and conflicts that create stress and anxiety, and even sometimes make us feel like we are losing our minds.

Asher Lipner
Psychologist, Ph.D., SRT
I believe good therapy is more than symptom management. It’s about helping people understand themselves more honestly, develop greater emotional awareness, and build a life that feels more grounded, connected, and authentic.
Many of the people I work with feel stuck in patterns they don’t fully understand — anxiety, shame, compulsive behaviors, emotional disconnection, relationship struggles, or cycles of secrecy and self-criticism. Often, these struggles are not simply about “bad habits” or lack of willpower, but about deeper emotional and relational dynamics that have never been fully understood or addressed.
My style is warm, direct, thoughtful, and engaged. I aim to create a space where people can speak openly about subjects that are difficult to discuss elsewhere, without feeling judged, dismissed, or reduced to a diagnosis. I believe meaningful therapy requires both compassion and honesty: the ability to understand pain without losing sight of accountability, growth, and change.
I have particular experience helping individuals and couples struggling with compulsive sexual behavior, pornography addiction, betrayal trauma, intimacy difficulties, anxiety, shame, and trauma-related issues. I also work extensively with clients from religious and culturally sensitive communities, where these struggles often carry additional layers of secrecy, fear, and isolation.
Therapy can help people move from surviving on autopilot toward living with greater clarity, presence, integrity, and connection — both to themselves and to the people they care about most.

Hart Psychotherapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Welcome, it’s wonderful to meet you and thank you for taking the time to read my profile. If you are someone who feels alone in a crowd or when asked how they are doing always says “I’m fine”, we should talk. If you feel stuck, I can help. You don't have to continue feeling isolated or that you're the only person experiencing what you are going through. Having someone to talk to about your issue can be a tremendous relief and is the first step towards healing. Change is possible and can happen for anyone. As an LCSW I look at the whole person and where they are coming from. I try to meet people where they are at and try to assist and guide them towards their goals. If you are tired of struggling alone, and of life being more difficult than it has to be, maybe you would like to meet, and we can just talk about where you are at and where you want to be.
I offer free consultations to propective clients.

Libby Shaw
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, ATR-BC, LPAT, ACS
Whether this is your first time in therapy or you're returning to continue the work you started, something brought you to this search today. Starting therapy can feel intimidating, even if it isn't your first time. I believe that the foundation of counseling is the therapeutic relationship created between the therapist and client: we are creating a team, and that requires trust, transparency, and feeling safe. It will be my goal to meet you where you're at and work at your pace, while also pushing you to meet the goals you outline for your treatment. I understand that whatever has brought you here is deeply personal and sensitive, and I vow to treat our counseling space with honor and respect. Feel free to reach out to me through email or phone call and we can set up a time to have a free consultation to see if we would be a good match to work together.
