Jazmin Melendez
Pre-Licensed Professional, LMSW
I believe every person deserves to feel seen, heard, and respected for who they are and the experiences that have shaped them. As someone who identifies as queer and is part of the LGBTQ+ community, I understand the importance of having spaces where you can show up as your full self without judgment or the need to explain who you are. I value culturally responsive, LGBTQ+ affirming, and identity-affirming care, and recognize that culture, family, identity, and lived experience are important parts of each person’s story. I approach therapy with curiosity, compassion, honesty, and humanity, while honoring both the challenges you’re carrying and the strengths that have helped you navigate them. I also believe there should be room for humor and genuine connection in therapy. My hope is that our work helps you feel more understood, connected to yourself, and empowered to move forward in a way that feels authentic to you.
I work with children, teens, adults, and couples navigating anxiety, trauma, depression, grief, relationships, identity, stress, neurodivergence, and life transitions. You may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or unsure of what comes next. My goal is to create a space where you can be honest about what’s happening, feel understood, and work together toward greater clarity, confidence, and meaningful change.

Neha Chawla
Licensed Psychoanalyst, MA, ATR-BC, LCAT, LP, FIPA
I believe that taking the time and effort to self-reflect, observe ourselves and delve deeper into the root causes of our conflicts, challenges, painful relationships and difficult realities is a worthwhile endeavor. The process of turning inward, inquiring into yourself and getting to know your own mind is a vital self-investment that can help you experience this life with more depth, freedom and contentment. Together we can discover important insights, new coping strategies and engender a sense of clarity and purpose in a safe, meaningful and non-judgmental therapeutic space.
I have experience working with individuals and couples, often but not limited to issues around stress, depression or anxiety, burnout, career conflicts, unhealthy relationships patterns, communication issues, divorce, family conflicts, parenting challenges, creative blocks, social anxiety, sexuality, loss/grief, child and adult trauma and illness (chronic or terminal). Having served as a therapist in multiple settings from mental health clinics, hospitals, schools, universities and hospice care, my practice has spanned a wide variety of ages, settings and demographics.
I am passionate about my work and supporting people as they heal and grow and so, I invite you to meet with me for an initial consultation and decide for yourself whether we are a good working match.

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.

Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC-D,CCATP, CAMAS-II, CCTP
Hi there and welcome to your journey into therapy. I am Jessica and have been in this field for almost 18 years in a variety of settings. I have experience working in a clinic , emergency room, hospital, schools, family court, jails, and in private practice. I have provided individual therapy from adolescence through late adulthood for a variety of issues. I believe therapy should be a personal journey for each patient . We collaborate side by side to develop a treatment plan that helps you achieve your goals. Healing is possible even though we may not believe that in the beginning. I believe that true healing begins by looking at the root of where a problem comes from and seeing how that problem affects our present lives. We begin making connections and building insight so that we can work together to recover and heal each broken pathway. Your journey can start here if you wish. Please reach out when you are ready.
