Allaire Ross
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
My name is Allaire Ross, I often work with individuals who feel stuck in cycles of anxiety, self-doubt, depression, or relationship difficulties. My approach integrates CBT with an attachment-focused lens to help you understand the patterns—both behavioral and relational—that may be keeping you stuck. Together, we’ll explore these patterns with warmth, curiosity, and a bit of humor, while building practical skills you can use in your daily life. Drawing from CBT, DBT, and somatic mindfulness practices, I aim to help you create a tangible toolbox for emotional regulation, clearer thinking, and stronger relationships. The goal isn’t just insight—it’s meaningful, lasting change that extends well beyond the therapy room.

Diane Vaillancourt
Pre-Licensed Professional, M.A., psychotherapist, Life Coach
I believe healing takes place when the core of the emotions/feelings is identified and then expressed. Our emotions and behavior are mostly covered and protected to avoid pain. There is no healing without feeling the pain but it's only temporary. Once the pain is felt and released the door for Joy has opened. I also use EFT, Spirituality and Energy Healing as it complements the process of therapy.

Jenn Coonce
Licensed Psychoanalyst, Licensed Psychoanalyst, New York State
Often times, people find that they experience unhappiness, anxiety, or repeated obstacles to getting what they want. This can lead to problems with relationships, work, or other areas of our lives.
Through a cooperative, supportive relationship with a therapist you trust and feel comfortable with, you can learn how to cope with what the "universe" throws your way, and choose behaviors and habits that can help you get more of what you want from life. By talking with someone you trust and feel comfortable with, I believe anyone can learn to know themselves better and to live more consciously and deliberately.
