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.

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.

Dr. Kelly Scherger
Psychologist, PhD, CST
As a licensed psychologist and certified sex therapist, I believe therapy is a collaborative and meaningful process that can help you reconnect with yourself, strengthen your relationships, and create a life that is in line with your personal values. My approach is compassionate, individualized, evidence-based, and grounded in the understanding that emotional well-being, physical health, sexual wellness, and relationships are deeply interconnected.
In my practice, I work with individual adults and couples navigating concerns related to intimacy and sexual health, anxiety, depression, chronic health conditions, chronic pain, sleep difficulties, and life and relationship stress. I understand how easily your own needs, confidence, and sense of connection can become secondary to the stress and demands of everyday life. Therapy offers an opportunity to slow down, gain perspective, and explore meaningful ways to move forward.
My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to make changes that align with your values. Whether you are seeking deeper intimacy, improved emotional well-being, more restful sleep, or a stronger connection with yourself and your partner, I would be honored to support your journey.

Lauren Green
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.S., LPC
“I should have known better” “I’m never good enough.” “What’s wrong with me?”
Does this sound like you? People who experience anxiety and depression can have negative self-talk and overly high expectations of self that can impact quality of life. Therapy is a welcoming environment to work on identify these messages and build the ability to separate the thought from the belief as well as challenging the stories we tell ourselves. Once you are able to see that the core beliefs you feel are inaccurate, you are more equipped to rewrite the narrative you have been carrying for many years.
