Paul Culbertson
Counselor/Therapist, LPCC
My typical client has been damaged during their childhood by caretakers. They are left hurt, confused, repeating destructive patterns, and not knowing who they truly are. We work together to reverse the harm, low self-imagine, and create the condition where the client's true identity can emerge.

Dr. Ruth Viehoff
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP
Hello, I'm Dr. Ruth Viehoff, and it's a pleasure to virtually meet you! My practice is geared towards gen Z and millennial clients who struggle with anxiety, worry, perfectionism, and ADHD. My clients are often college students, graduate students, or are early in their careers as high-powered professionals. I have experience working with physicians and other medical professionals, engineers, high-stress business professionals, and lawyers. Often my clients over-schedule, over-optimize, and feel like they are working so hard to keep things in order in their lives. To other people, it may appear that you have it all together, but they don't see your internal struggle, your sense of overwhelm, and your hope that you will finally get a grasp on things tomorrow. Often my clients rely on achievement and external forms of validation and praise to feel like they are doing enough. They struggle to internally approve of themselves and their efforts. In therapy, I help my clients to cultivate self-compassion, re-evaluate and replace unhealthy personal standards, and increase attention to their own internal wants, needs, and opinions. Therapy is an opportunity to cultivate your own internal sense of knowing and increase your sense of agency in your own life. Reach out to me today to book a free consultation call!

Mallory Lamb
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Many of my clients have anxiety that presents as overthinking, self-criticism, perfectionism, or overwhelm. This may show up in relationships, self-esteem, or practical daily life (procrastination, avoiding events). Together we will lean into anxiety to re-expand your life, and change patterns keeping you stuck. I take an active approach in session, with prompts, challenges, and encouragement. I primarily utilize relationally and developmentally informed Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT). My style is a blend of process and practical, to gain insight and make change.

Kate Winderman
Psychologist, Ph.D., LP
From the outside, people might think you have it all together. But on the inside, it's a different story. Maybe you feel like your mind is a never ending loop of obsessive and anxious thoughts. Perhaps you feel completely stuck and a romantic relationship that is no longer serving you in its current state, but don't know how to fix it. Maybe you have noticed something isn't working well in your sex life, but feel too ashamed or embarrassed to know how to address it. Maybe you're a queer person, and need an affirming space to process your experience. Perhaps your history of trauma is holding you back from the life you want to live. Or maybe you just feel completely overwhelmed with all the responsibilities you carry, and just need a safe place to set down some of your mental load.
My hope is that if any of these resonate with you, you will reach out. Together, we can explore the issues that are currently bothering you by unpacking things at your own pace. Therapy with a non-judgmental, safe, and validating therapist can be a huge help in tackling life's difficulties. Your most authentic self is welcome here.
