Sam Naimi
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Psychoanalyst, Psychotherapist, LCSW
I believe in the transformative power of psychotherapy. The therapy I offer is grounded in contemporary psychoanalysis—an approach that’s curious about your inner world and attuned to the unconscious patterns that shape how you think, feel, and relate. This kind of therapy doesn’t just reduce symptoms; it helps you understand yourself on an incredibly deep level, creating lasting change in how you experience yourself and how you show up in your relationships.

Dr. Ruth Viehoff
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP
Hello, I'm Dr. Ruth Viehoff, and it's a pleasure to virtually meet you! My practice is geared towards gen Z and millennial clients who struggle with anxiety, worry, perfectionism, and ADHD. My clients are often college students, graduate students, or are early in their careers as high-powered professionals. I have experience working with physicians and other medical professionals, engineers, high-stress business professionals, and lawyers. Often my clients over-schedule, over-optimize, and feel like they are working so hard to keep things in order in their lives. To other people, it may appear that you have it all together, but they don't see your internal struggle, your sense of overwhelm, and your hope that you will finally get a grasp on things tomorrow. Often my clients rely on achievement and external forms of validation and praise to feel like they are doing enough. They struggle to internally approve of themselves and their efforts. In therapy, I help my clients to cultivate self-compassion, re-evaluate and replace unhealthy personal standards, and increase attention to their own internal wants, needs, and opinions. Therapy is an opportunity to cultivate your own internal sense of knowing and increase your sense of agency in your own life. Reach out to me today to book a free consultation call!
