Robert dos Santos Teixeira
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, SMF, MPIA, MA, MSW, LCSW
When you lose the little self, you find the bigger Self. You are the Light Who shines through the eyes: You are Ancient, Eternal, Infinite, One, and Unchanging Light. My job is to help you step out of the little self (the flesh-and-blood self), which is experiencing the pain of addiction, anxiety, depression, trauma, etc., and into Who You really are. As a result, you will gain observer consciousness, which offers freedom, healing, transformation, and ultimately awakening.

Crystal Hoban, LMFT
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
Are you tired of having the same argument over and over again, with no resolution? Maybe conversations quickly turn into conflict quickly, one of you shuts down, or you both walk away feeling unheard, misunderstood, and disconnected. And the same fights seem to surface over and over again, like clock work. You may love each other deeply, but feel stuck in patterns that leave you both feeling lonely, frustrated, or emotionally distant. I specialize in helping couples improve communication, rebuild trust, and create a deeper emotional bond. Together, we’ll identify the negative patterns and behaviors keeping you stuck in cycles of conflict. In sessions I teach practical tools for managing strong emotional responses, and create a safe space where both partners can express themselves openly, honestly, and safely.

Amanda Martell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I have been in the social work field for the past decade in a myriad of settings. I truly believe this wide range of experience in areas such as preventive, clinical, schools, shelters, etc. has given me a holistic understanding of the various needs of my clients. I bring this knowledge, my own background and experiences, and my clinical experience into therapy in order to provide a safe, welcoming, and supportive environment that promotes healing - no matter what a person's need or trauma is.

Justine Astacio | Lotus Theory LLC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
As a therapist, I approach this work through a somatic lens, recognizing that what we experience emotionally is often held in the body, not just in our thoughts.
I support clients in understanding their patterns while also helping them build a more regulated and grounded relationship with themselves. This means we’re not only talking about what’s happening, but also paying attention to how it’s showing up physically and how to shift those responses over time.
Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or a major life transition, my goal is to create a space that feels steady, collaborative, and connected, where you can feel supported both in your internal experience and in how you relate to others in your life.
