Alexis Smith
Pre-Licensed Professional, MHC-LP
What makes my practice unique is the way I integrate evidence-based care with a deeply collaborative, person-centered approach. I believe meaningful change happens when clients feel safe enough to be fully themselves, understood without judgment, and supported in a way that honors their autonomy, values, and lived experience.
I work from a place of curiosity, respect, and cultural sensitivity. I always meeting clients where they are and moving at a pace that feels safe and sustainable. Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model, I tailor therapy using various modalities to fit each person’s needs, goals, and emotional experiences.
Clients often come to me feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or unsure how to navigate what they are going through. My role is not to “fix” you, but to help you better understand yourself, your patterns, and your emotional world so that you can begin responding to life with more clarity, confidence, and self-compassion.
I also prioritize accessibility and convenience by offering fully virtual therapy, allowing you to access care from the comfort and privacy of your own space. With flexible scheduling, therapy can be integrated into your life in a way that feels realistic and supportive rather than overwhelming.
If you are looking for a therapeutic space where you can slow down, feel understood, and begin creating meaningful change that aligns with who you are and what matters to you, I would be honored to work with you.

Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
I have been a therapist for many years and in many settings. In describing my practice to prospective clients, I like them to know that we work in three intersecting and overlapping domains-present, past and process. In the present, we focus on how you are able to care for yourself and for others, cultivate relationships with self and other in ways that are enriching and not depleting. Using the past, we can come to understand how you show up in relationships, as informed by patterns laid out in your family of origin but in the hopes that you can come to understand and then do differently if you want, rather than acting from a place of default and habit. And finally, we can use process therapies such as EMDR and Deep Brain Reorienting, to help you truly process and move past your past experiences and help you to shed the weight of past trauma. I use a pragmatic and interactive style to collaborate with clients to assist them in choosing the therapeutic path that fits best for them. Therapy is about healing and I value using trusted and effective approaches to help you reach your goals in therapy in a timely way that allows you to move on from our relationship into living your life fully and completely. I offer a free, 30-minute initial consult call so we can connect and see how we might be a good fit. Email me to schedule that today!

Wayne Ayers
Psychologist, PhD
Psychotherapy can be challenging, but it is a rewarding process. Most people come in to discuss the problems in their lives. They often forget about what is going well, and what are their natural talents and abilities. I train and supervise psychologists at area hospitals. Because of this I am sensitive to ethical concerns: honesty, integrity and practicality. I strive to create a very kind and safe atmosphere where personal exploration is possible. Psychotherapy should be collaborative. I am active and vocal and give my clients ongoing feedback, inquiry and support.

Rose Snyder, EdM, PsyD, LLC
Psychologist, PsyD
I have worked in the field of psychology for more than 25 years across a variety of settings, including children's group homes, community mental health centers, and private practice. I also served for many years as Director of Mental Health at a large urban preschool, experience that deepened my understanding of child development, family systems, and the complexities of supporting children and their families.
In recent years, my clinical work has increasingly included EMDR for processing specific traumatic experiences, along with nervous-system-informed approaches drawing from Polyvagal Theory. I work with adolescents and adults and also provide parent consultation across developmental stages, with particular interest in supporting parents of neurodivergent children, including autistic children and children with a demand-avoidant/PDA profile.
I have also provided clinical supervision to psychology trainees and marriage and family therapy interns. I love the work I do and remain committed to ongoing learning and professional development so that I can continue to offer thoughtful, individualized support.
