Sara Pavel
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, especially when you’re used to handling things on your own. My goal is to create a space where you can be honest about what’s going on without feeling like you have to have everything figured out first. I believe therapy should be practical, collaborative, and connected to your real life—not just a place to talk about problems.
Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck in your own thoughts, struggling with confidence, or navigating a major transition, we’ll work together to understand what’s getting in the way and find ways forward. I’ll meet you where you are while also challenging you when it can help you grow. You don’t have to wait until things feel unbearable to reach out. If something in your life isn’t working the way you want it to, therapy can be a place to start making a change.

Dr. Ashley Geerts-Perry
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
As a licensed psychologist, I am deeply passionate about supporting my clients in enhancing their self-worth and building on their inherent strengths. I believe in the power of rewriting personal narratives, helping clients reframe maladaptive beliefs about themselves and embrace a more empowering story. My approach is rooted in fostering emotional acceptance and guiding clients toward a life that aligns with their values.
I work from a family systems and attachment perspective, recognizing the profound impact relationships and early experiences have on one’s sense of self. I integrate psychodynamic and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) principles to create a therapeutic space that promotes self-compassion, growth, and resilience. My goal is to help clients not only understand their past but also move forward with a renewed sense of purpose and emotional well-being.
