Justine Astacio | Lotus Theory LLC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
As a therapist, I approach this work through a somatic lens, recognizing that what we experience emotionally is often held in the body, not just in our thoughts.
I support clients in understanding their patterns while also helping them build a more regulated and grounded relationship with themselves. This means we’re not only talking about what’s happening, but also paying attention to how it’s showing up physically and how to shift those responses over time.
Whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or a major life transition, my goal is to create a space that feels steady, collaborative, and connected, where you can feel supported both in your internal experience and in how you relate to others in your life.

Colette Pauta
Counselor/Therapist
If you're looking for someone who will truly listen and help you feel heard and seen, my goal is to offer a space where you don't have to filter or perform. I take a warm, relational, and collaborative approach to therapy, meeting you where you're at with curiosity and care. I believe that humor has a place in healing, and when used thoughtfully, it can make difficult conversations feel less intimidating and more human. My work is trauma-informed and grounded in understanding how your experiences, relationships, and environment shape the challenging you're facing. Together, we'll explore patterns, build insight, and develop practical tools that feel relevant to your everyday life. Therapy with me is not about having all the answers, it's about creating space to slow down, reflect, and move forward with greater clarity and self-trust. Whether you're thinking about therapy for the first time, or have been in the counseling space before, I welcome the opportunity to get to know who you are at your core.

Lauree Berger Turman
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW 22044, LCSW 098456-01
To change, to grow, to connect, to stay connected, to be the very best of yourself are the reasons to come into therapy. Those issues are at the center of my work. Understanding how you got here, where you want to go, and how to get there. We begin with the here and now, and slowly, at your own pace, unpeel the proverbial onion (which is know to cause tears) and you create your life without barriers.
