Kourtney Bennett
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Therapy can offer a space to better understand yourself and the experiences that have shaped you. I help adults make sense of trauma, neurodivergence, burnout, identity, and life transitions by understanding their experiences within the context of their relationships, environments, and the systems they have navigated. Together, we'll build practical skills, deepen self-understanding, and create meaningful, lasting change in a compassionate, collaborative space.

Dr. Christopher Lowery, DHSc, CLCP
Clinical Health Practitioner, Board-Certified Life Care Planner
Dr. Christopher A. Lowery, DHSc, CLCP is board-certified, specializing in international telehealth life care planning with a focus on clinical health, rehabilitation counseling, biopsychosocial issues, and global health promotion and prevention issues through the use of holistic evidence-based approaches using a Biopsychosocial Health Consultation Model and the Universal Neurodiversity Continuum (UNC) Model™. Dr. Lowery is skilled in the use of targeted plans, assessments, and developing treatments for behavioral health disorders (e.g., anxiety, ADHD, depression, emotional regulation, employment, trauma, conduct disorder, anger, substance use, etc.), medical conditions (e.g., chronic pain, burns, high blood pressure, inflammation, lung diseases, and diabetes, etc.), and health behavior changes (e.g., weight management, informed health decisions, occupational health prevention, physical activity, disparities, preventive nutrition, tobacco cessation, risky sexual activity, accident prevention, etc.). Other services also provided are catastrophic and disability case management, and non-expert (lay) witness or non-testifying expert litigation support regarding associated disabilities and/or health impairments.
The Universal Neurodiversity Continuum (UNC) Model™ established by Dr. Lowery, is an evidence-informed framework that understands cognitive, emotional, and behavioral traits as existing along a continuum across all individuals. It shifts the focus from fixed diagnostic categories to how traits are expressed and how they impact daily functioning, allowing for more personalized practical, and inclusive approaches to support and well-being.
Dr. Lowery holds a board-certification in life care planning as a Certified Life Care Planner (CLCP) from the International Commission on Health Care Certification (ICHCC), which is accredited and recognized by the American National Standards Institute National Accreditation Board (ANAB). This prestigious certification attests to his qualifications and competence in the health care delivery systems. ANAB’s accreditation ensures that the certification process meets rigorous international standards, confirming his aptitude and expertise for his role as a practitioner.

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.
