Rose Snyder, EdM, PsyD, LLC
Psychologist, PsyD
I have worked in the field of psychology for more than 25 years across a variety of settings, including children's group homes, community mental health centers, and private practice. I also served for many years as Director of Mental Health at a large urban preschool, experience that deepened my understanding of child development, family systems, and the complexities of supporting children and their families.
In recent years, my clinical work has increasingly included EMDR for processing specific traumatic experiences, along with nervous-system-informed approaches drawing from Polyvagal Theory. I work with adolescents and adults and also provide parent consultation across developmental stages, with particular interest in supporting parents of neurodivergent children, including autistic children and children with a demand-avoidant/PDA profile.
I have also provided clinical supervision to psychology trainees and marriage and family therapy interns. I love the work I do and remain committed to ongoing learning and professional development so that I can continue to offer thoughtful, individualized support.

Gary D. Alexander
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, MFT, NCC
Some of the concerns that bring us to psychotherapy can ease relatively quickly. Many, however, are more complex and require time and thoughtful attention. Our work together is not only about relieving distress, but about creating meaningful, lasting change — change that brings you closer to what you want for yourself. I strive to cultivate the connection, attunement, and care necessary for this work to unfold.

Dr. Shelby Kittinger
Psychologist, PsyD
I believe therapy is most healing when it feels like an authentic relationship—one where curiosity, honesty, and courage can coexist. My role is to help you slow down enough to hear yourself, challenge you to notice old patterns that no longer serve you, and offer the scaffolding to create space for new ways of relating to yourself and others. I work collaboratively, with a balance of compassion and directness, to help you gain clarity about your needs and build a greater sense of agency in your life. Together, we work toward a kind of transformation that feels both deeply personal and sustainably real. Reach out to schedule a free 20 minute consultation call to see if we are a good fit for your therapy needs.

Dr. Michael Marossy
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I am a licensed psychologist with a PhD providing therapy for adolescents, adults, and couples in California and Oregon. My approach is warm, collaborative, insight-oriented, and grounded in psychoanalytic/psychodynamic theory. I strive to create a therapeutic relationship where clients feel understood rather than judged, and where difficult emotions and experiences can be explored openly and thoughtfully.
I work with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, mood disorders, trauma, relationship issues, identity concerns, emotional regulation difficulties, and life transitions. I also have experience working with pastors, ministry leaders, and clients seeking therapy that thoughtfully integrates Christian faith and spirituality into the therapeutic process when desired.
I believe therapy is most effective when it helps people move beyond surface-level coping and toward deeper self-understanding, emotional freedom, healthier relationships, and a stronger sense of meaning and direction in life.

Vanessa Timmons
Life Coach, ACC, CPCC, MMT
As you move through life's many phases, it can be hard to hear your own voice clearly amid everyone else’s expectations. I coach people navigating transitions. Those shifts in career, relationships, identity, and purpose. Together, we make space to take stock, reconnect with your wisdom, and discover what feels true for your next chapter. My approach brings together deep listening, compassionate inquiry, mindfulness, and reflective writing. I offer a free consultation to explore what you’re looking for and whether coaching is a good fit.
