Daniel Pagano
Licensed Psychoanalyst, PhD, LP, SCC
Asking for help and finding safety with support is not easy, and I honor the courage it takes to begin. I offer a deeply caring and engaged relationship where you can expect a warm, non-judgmental place to freely express yourself, making the process of psychotherapy feel less intimidating. Our work together is a sacred, collaborative journey into the depths of your psyche, compassionately exploring unconscious patterns and shadow aspects to align you with your authentic Self and foster true spiritual wholeness.

Creative Now Therapy, Cris Maria Fort Garcés
Registered Psychotherapist, LCAT, ATR-BC, Gestalt Psychotherapy Certified, Developmental Somatic Psychotherapy Certified, Hakomi Somatic Practitioner
You are not too sensitive. You are not failing at healing. Your body has just been running an old survival program for a long time, and it’s tired. I work with sensitive women and queer adults who are done performing “fine” while quietly falling apart.

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.

Chrissie Chua- Ly van manh
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-D, LPC
I’m a therapist with over 10 years of experience helping people work through anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, and life challenges across many different settings and stages of life. I bring a warm, kind, and grounded approach to my work, and I use humor when it helps create ease and connection in the room.
I believe therapy should feel both safe and effective. My priority is building a strong, trusting relationship where you feel comfortable being yourself and talking about what’s really going on beneath the surface. I also value collaboration, and I welcome feedback from clients so we can shape the work together in a way that feels most helpful for you.
Together, we can explore the deeper history and past experiences you may still be carrying- especially the ones that continue to impact your stress, mood, relationships, and sense of self today. At the same time, I bring structure to our work so sessions feel focused, intentional, and productive, making sure your time is used in a meaningful and thoughtful way.
My goal is for you to feel more understood, supported, and connected to yourself as you move toward real and lasting change.

Dr. Erica Gardner-Schuster
Psychologist, PhD
I am a specialized trauma- & attachment-oriented group therapist committed to helping adults heal, grow and cultivate more fulfilling relationships and lives. In my groups, healing happens in the context of a safe therapeutic community of fellow travelers who can relate, help each other feel less alone, and support one another in making the changes needed to get more out of life. I also use a liberation psychology lens to help group members explore the intersection of cultural and identify factors and mental health and feel more confident and empowered in their lives.
Group therapy can help you find deeper meaning and connection through the practice of authenticity: "letting go of who we think we're supposed to be and embracing who we are" (Brené Brown). By helping you bring your full authentic self into connection, Group can help you transcend loneliness to find more fulfilling relationships. Group can help you lean into your life with more courage, compassion and vulnerability. Group can support your unique journey as you find your way home to where you belong, and to the relationships that sustain you.
