Our approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to each individual—focused on helping you slow down, set boundaries, and feel more in control without sacrificing your goals.

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.

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.

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.
