Angie Yemma
Therapist, LCAT, BCDMT
From the outside, it may look like you’re doing everything right. You work hard, care deeply, show up for others, and hold yourself to high standards. You notice the details, strive to do your best, and rarely settle for “good enough.” These qualities can be powerful strengths—but they can also leave you exhausted when the pressure to get it right starts taking over.
Maybe you overthink decisions, replay conversations, worry about disappointing people, or constantly wonder if you’re doing enough. Maybe you’ve accomplished a lot but still feel like you should be doing more.
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and there’s nothing wrong with you.
I specialize in working with perfectionist and high-achieving teens and young adults who are navigating anxiety, self-doubt, overthinking, people-pleasing, academic pressure, and the expectations they place on themselves. I don’t believe perfectionism is something you need to get rid of. I see it as a superpower.
Therapy is an opportunity to understand your perfectionism, recognize the strengths underneath it, and learn how to use those strengths in ways that support the life you actually want. Together, we’ll build self-trust, confidence, flexibility, and self-compassion—without asking you to become less ambitious or care less.
As a therapist and dance/movement therapist, I believe your body has important information that your mind may be overlooking. My approach is warm, collaborative, creative, and practical, combining talk therapy with mindfulness and body-based techniques.
Therapy with me isn’t about becoming a different person. It’s about feeling more comfortable being the person you already are.
You don’t have to choose between being successful and feeling good. You can keep your drive, your high standards, and the parts of perfectionism that make you who you are—while creating more space for confidence, connection, flexibility, and joy.

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.
