Dr. Kelsey George
Counselor/Therapist, PhD, LPC
I'm a licensed professional counselor, specializing in all things relationships and interpersonal dynamics, rooted from a mindfulness (MBCT), psychoanalytic, and ACT approach. As a certified yoga teacher for almost a decade, I also draw on yoga philosophy to inform my clinical work. I am an affiliate faculty at Regis University, where I mentor and educate future therapists, focusing on healthy confrontation and effective delivery. I consider myself a directive therapist, yet a collaborative one. I believe the magic happens from our therapeutic alliance.

Iris Bowen
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MBA
My orientation to therapy is grounded in liberatory, strengths-based, and relational frameworks. My goal is to partner with you against that which is preventing you from creating a meaningful, value-aligned life: A life full of vitality, where you maintain a balanced connection to both your inner world and your community. I consider the material conditions (social, political, economic) around you when offering coping strategies, and aim to support your healing while holding space for any active harms or atrocities you may be experiencing (direct and indirect).

Jacinda Andrews
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD-C, LPC, NCC
Seeking therapy is a courageous step, and you don't have to navigate life's challenges alone. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where we work together to better understand your experiences, build practical coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change. Using evidence-based approaches, I help adults move beyond anxiety, trauma, and unhelpful patterns toward greater confidence, resilience, and emotional well-being at a pace that feels right for you.

Jess Williams
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSS, LCSW
When you're living your life just a little bit differently from other people, it can feel like the world just wasn't made for you - and it sucks. Whether it's how or who you love, how your brain works, the way you seem to worry about absolutely everything, or the decisions you make about what your life to look like, it can feel super isolating and discouraging to not feel seen and understood by those around you. When I work with clients, that is my main goal - to help them feel seen, understood, and accepted for who they are. Sure, we will work on your anxiety, I'll give you new techniques to try and different ways to think about the world around you, and we'll explore practical advice for things like workplace stress, relationship issues, and family drama, but I also want to help you like YOU more than you ever have before. It might sound cliche (in fact, I know it does), but developing the ability to back yourself, accept your emotions without judgement, and make decisions that feel truly right to you can make all the difference in the world.
Starting therapy can be anxiety-provoking at times, which is why I offer free consultations to all prospective clients. You can book a free 20 minute phone call directly on my website, and I'll reach out to you right away to confirm. We can chat about what you're looking for support with AND make sure everything feels like a good fit before scheduling an intake. I can't wait to connect with you!

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.
