Dr. Nnenna Nwankwo
Psychologist, PsyD
Over my 15+ years of clinical experience, I have come to appreciate therapy as an opportunity to go within and connect to what matters most, emerging at the end of that journey with self compassion, increased self awareness and self concept, as well as clarity for moving forward. My clinical approach is integrative and grounded in existential-humanistic psychology which is a style that helps one explore how to live authentically, creating meaning from life's challenges and chaos. My specialities include high achieving BIPOC with intersecting identities, first and second generation immigrants, and individuals navigating infertility and challenges with family building.

Erika Barrington
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, BC-DMT
Hi! I’m Erika (they/them). I’m guided by curiosity, play, and the belief that there's always a reason why we act the way we do. Even if it doesn't make sense to us at first, I find that when I help clients explore their internal world with curiosity, we discover how resourceful and creative they had to be to get to this point. I also believe strongly that inside of us we embody a microcosm of larger systems around us. Once we bring awareness to these internal dynamics, we then have the opportunity to release and relearn ways to show up in the world that center our innate gifts and our connection to all living things.
Social Location:
I am a white, queer, genderqueer, neurodivergent, a non-gestational parent, and am not living with a physical disability right now. I hold awareness of the ways that my class privilege, college education, and white body privilege have shaped my experience of various mental health struggles and ADHD.
I feel most excited about life when I’m doing something creative and intentional with people (line dancing, singing, making collages) and most aligned with my purpose when I’m helping adults to play/move/create as part of their healing/recovery.
