Dan Walinsky
Psychologist, PhD
Thanks for stopping to look at my page! I am a licensed psychologist who loves to work with clients who are working through life changes, who’ve experienced painful past experiences in family and relationships, issues related to identity, traumatic experiences, career and work issues, anxiety and depression, relationship experiences among monogamous, poly/ENM/CNM people, LGBTQIA+ clients. For both those who are new to therapy, and those who've had lots of experience, I try to build a supportive, respectful, and compassionate environment where we have the opportunity to explore solutions to problems as they uniquely impact your life.

Sanela Solak
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
Welcome. I offer a relational, attuned, and integrative approach to therapy that is tailored to each client’s unique needs.
My first intention is to create a safe, judgment-free space where each client can show up exactly as they are in the present moment. I believe we all have a deep need to feel seen, to know that we are enough, and to experience belonging without having to sacrifice our needs or our authentic selves. Unfortunately, for many of us, these fundamental needs were not adequately met early in life. As a result, we often experience suffering in our relationships with others and in the way we relate to ourselves.
I believe that, given the right conditions, along with time and nourishment, our inner intelligence can build upon our current level of development, heal what has been wounded, and integrate into a more evolved and whole version of ourselves.
I also believe that personal, ancestral, and collective conditioning shape our physical, emotional, relational, and mental well-being. These dimensions cannot truly be separated. When we gain insight into their impact, we can develop a deeper understanding of our present condition, cultivate greater self-compassion, and ultimately expand our capacity to choose how we live in the present and shape our future.
It is one of my deepest honors and greatest joys to accompany people on their courageous and vulnerable journeys toward healing, connection, and a more integrated, whole sense of self.
