I use evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), tailoring each method to your unique needs and goals.

Matthew Heintz
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Life can be overwhelming can't it? Feelings of anxiety, self criticism and low or no motivation don't come from no where. I work with clients to create a space where they can be themselves and understand how to work with these overwhelming feelings. It is important to me to know the people I work with as more than their symptoms, I want to know what you value, who you care for and what you just find nifty. I won't act as just a therapist in our work. We are allowed to joke, cry, and talk about how cute your pets are, it's all a part of the process.

Dr. Jillian Neill
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
Growth and change are hard for everyone. They are even harder if we do not have the insight and the tools to help us navigate them. My goal as a therapist is to help you live the life you want to be leading: a life aligned with your values and focused on what is important to you. The road to adult "success" can be full of unexpected detours and barriers. Sometimes, we need support overcoming those barriers or even charting an entirely new path from our previous notions of what it means to be happy, whole, or fulfilled.
Using a variety of approaches, I work with clients to heal old wounds, understand their patterns, and examine the present and the future to build towards their goals. I am trained in EMDR to treat trauma, and also use talk therapy approaches to help clients achieve healing and balance in their lives.

It would be a privilege and an honor to accompany you on your mental health journey.
I'm a licensed psychologist with over 18 years in the field. I have expertise in the treatment of PTSD, trauma, and stress and in the understanding of veteran and military culture. Other areas of specialty include anxiety, phobias, panic, depression, insomnia, and addiction. I work with teens and adults, as well as the spouses, partners and family members of those struggling.

Alan Jacobson, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, Nationally Registered Health Service Provider
I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years of experience working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families to create meaningful, measurable change in how they feel, function, and relate to others. My approach is evidence-based, empathic, and solution-focused, with therapy centered on helping you achieve clear goals so that progress is noticeable in daily life. I work with a wide range of concerns—including anxiety, low mood, loss, self-doubt, and life transitions—and have particular expertise in performance psychology, public speaking anxiety, panic attacks, fear of flying, and questions of purpose or meaning. If you’re unsure whether therapy is the right next step, I also offer a one-time consultation assessment to help clarify what may be contributing to your current stress and identify effective pathways forward, whether through therapy or other strategies.

Alvina Anantram
Counselor/Therapist, M.A., LMHC
Hi, I’m Alvina! I work with teens and adults experiencing anxiety, relationship insecurity, low self-esteem, and patterns of overthinking, people-pleasing, or emotional dependence on others for reassurance and validation.
Many of my clients feel unchosen in relationships, become anxious around communication or connection, and over-extend themselves to feel worthy or secure. While these patterns may be familiar, they can still feel difficult to shift.
In therapy, we go beyond coping strategies and surface-level insight. We explore the root of relationship anxiety and attachment patterns, helping you develop emotional grounding, self-trust, and a more secure sense of self. This deeper work supports lasting change — allowing you to relate to yourself and others with greater clarity, confidence, and emotional stability.
If you’re looking for therapy that addresses the ‘why’ beneath your patterns and supports meaningful, long-term change, I invite you to send me a message today to get started!
