Confluence Mind and Motion
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
At Confluence Mind and Motion, we help clients reconnect with the parts of themselves that feel distant, overwhelmed, or forgotten. We believe meaningful change happens when people feel emotionally safe and supported—both within their relationships and within themselves. Our work is grounded in Emotionally Focused Therapy and attachment science, guiding clients as they rebuild confidence, heal from disconnection, and rediscover their internal sources of strength. Whether someone is navigating anxiety, trauma, identity challenges, or the pressures of athletic performance, we offer a steady and collaborative space to explore what’s getting in the way and what’s possible next. Many people come to us feeling stuck, frustrated, or unsure how to return to the version of themselves they know they can be. Together, we work to uncover clarity, resilience, and renewed direction—so you can move forward with purpose and self-trust.

Jason Herr
Psychologist, Psy.D.
My approach to therapy is grounded in the belief that meaningful change begins with understanding—of ourselves, our patterns, and the biological and emotional systems that shape how we experience the world. I work with individuals, couples, and families across a wide range of concerns, integrating clinical experience, psychological insight, and education about how the brain and nervous system function under stress, trauma, and emotional strain.
Throughout my career in community mental health, private practice, medical settings, and teaching, I have worked with people facing complex emotional and relational challenges. These experiences have shaped a practical, compassionate, and direct style that focuses on helping clients understand why they feel and react the way they do, while developing concrete skills for change. I believe therapy is not only about symptom relief but about increasing self-awareness, emotional regulation, and the ability to navigate life with greater clarity and intention.
My work often includes helping clients understand the connection between thoughts, emotions, and physiological responses. By learning how to regulate the nervous system and tolerate uncertainty, individuals can respond more thoughtfully rather than react automatically. I aim to create a collaborative and respectful therapeutic environment where clients feel safe to explore difficult experiences, retell their stories when needed, and move toward a stronger sense of stability and self-understanding.
Therapy is a process of growth, accountability, and compassion. Whether someone is navigating anxiety, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or life transitions, my goal is to help them build insight, resilience, and a more grounded sense of who they are and how they want to live.

Michael Zamrin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MSW, MA
I have extensive experience providing psychotherapy to individuals and couples navigating a range of concerns, including relationship challenges, work-related stress, depression, and anxiety. In addition, I’ve completed advanced training in mind-body approaches for chronic pain, including many hours of study in Pain Reprocessing Therapy and related techniques aimed at reducing—and in some cases eliminating—chronic pain.
My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I support individuals and couples in working through life’s challenges with greater self-awareness, confidence, and purpose. Whether you’re going through a transition, feeling emotionally stuck, or seeking more clarity and direction, I provide a safe and supportive space to explore your goals and move past what’s holding you back.
With compassion, practical tools, and a deep respect for each client’s unique story, I help people tap into their strengths, clarify their values, and take meaningful steps toward a more fulfilling life.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Pennsylvania. I look forward to connecting and supporting you on your journey.

Alisia Ives at Status Therapy
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC
What you want to achieve is our goal. I am attentive and straightforward, as well as caring. In twenty years of practice, I am grateful that many clients have told me that our work together was really helpful. Some return as needed, often for a shorter period when something new comes up they want help to handle.
When we meet, you will tell me a bit about your life, what is causing dis-ease in your life, and how you want your life to be. We will brainstorm together about how you can begin working toward that goal. This means regardless of which treatment modality (therapy style) is used, I am aware and attending to your vocalized goals, your patterns of behavior, your feelings in relationships - including the one with yourself - and much more.
It is true that we are affected by our experiences and upbringing and that may or may not be affecting you in the present. There is much that goes into satisfying daily life: self-discipline, self-awareness, boundaries, how you talk to yourself and others, your relationships, money and work.
I am happy to talk with you on the phone for a few minutes. The cost of an appointment is listed with payment. If you would like to come in and financial circumstances are such that the regular cost makes therapy out of reach, I take on some clients at a lower rate. Please don't hesitate to ask if you are in need this way.
