Dr. John Monopoli
Psychologist, PhD
If you’re feeling stuck, isolated, irritable, frustrated, doing things you don't want to, and seeking change -- let's talk. I see clients for individual therapy, and work primarily with millennials and Gen Z'ers who are experiencing anxiety, depression, and/or ADHD. Many of my clients are early or mid-career professionals balancing work and family demands, dealing with relationship stress, and working through challenging family dynamics. My specialties go along with associated challenges in this group: establishing healthy boundaries, listening to your instincts, and taking care of your self. I also have specific training working with social anxiety and ADHD.

Blair Pallas
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
If you’re exhausted from chasing certainty and living a life shaped by "what-ifs," you're doing more than just worrying—you’re watching your world shrink to fit your fears. Safety shouldn't feel like a prison. Instead of staying locked in a losing battle with your thoughts and anxious feelings, I help you change how you respond to them. By pivoting from managing symptoms and avoiding triggers to utilizing evidence based strategies, we will work together to regain your footing. We won't just quiet the noise; we’ll redirect your energy toward the goals and values that actually matter to you.

Jill Verofsky
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.S., L.P.C., N.C.C.
Let’s be honest: if reading self-help books, taking deep breaths, or telling yourself "it is what it is" was going to fix things, you’d be cured by now.
I offer evidence-based mental health care with zero fluff, zero clinical gaslighting, and absolutely no nod-and-smile clichés. I combine serious expertise with a very necessary sense of humor because working on your mental health is hard enough—it shouldn't feel like a punishment.
My job isn’t to stare at you silently and ask "how does that make you feel?" endlessly. My job is to listen, call out the chaotic brain loops keeping you stuck, and give you actual, concrete tools to navigate real life. I bring the clinical framework; you bring your actual self, minus the pressure to pretend you have everything under control.
Healing takes work, but it doesn't have to be miserable. We'll tackle the heavy, complicated stuff head-on, but we’ll also laugh when life is absurd.
