Abelee Groff
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
My practice is grounded in trauma-informed, attachment-based therapy that emphasizes emotional safety, collaboration, and respect for each client’s values and relationships. I work with adults navigating anxiety, complex trauma, emotional regulation challenges, and relationship stress among other issues.
I take an integrative, evidence-based approach that incorporates Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic and nervous system–informed therapy, attachment-focused work, and emotion-focused interventions. While my work is rooted in clinical research, I also recognize that not all healing can be fully explained by science alone. I remain open to the many ways the mind, body, and inner world interact, honoring intuition, meaning-making, and embodied experience as part of the therapeutic process.
I provide affirming, nonjudgmental care for clients from diverse backgrounds, including LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent adults. Many clients seek my practice for support around relationship dynamics, intimacy concerns, and navigating relationships that may not follow traditional models. I aim to create a space where clients feel understood without needing to educate their therapist.
My goal is to help clients develop greater emotional resilience, healthier relationships, and a more secure connection with themselves and others.

Kerline Theodore
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
From the outside, life may look successful, but internally you may feel overwhelmed, burned out, emotionally exhausted, or stuck in cycles of overthinking and self-doubt. Through a trauma-informed, evidence-based approach (CBT, DBT, and EMDR), I help clients break free from patterns of stress and perfectionism so they can feel more grounded, confident, and in control of their lives.

Shaelyn Cataldo
Counselor/Therapist, LMHC-A, PMH-C
I believe symptoms are often messages, not flaws. Anxiety, perfectionism, people-pleasing, emotional overwhelm, and relationship struggles are frequently adaptations developed in response to earlier experiences and environments. My role is to help clients understand these patterns with compassion rather than criticism.
I provide a warm, honest, and direct therapeutic space where insight is paired with meaningful action. Together, we explore how your past experiences continue to shape your present relationships, nervous system, and sense of self while gently building new ways of relating to yourself and others.
I integrate EMDR, somatic therapy, attachment-focused work, and parts work to help clients heal at the root, reconnect with their inner wisdom, and create lasting change.
