Andrea Meier, LLC | Holistic Wellness Collective
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.S., LPC, LAC
Welcome! My passion is supporting and guiding individuals, couples and families overwhelmed by anxiety, trauma, addictions and relational challenges so that they can heal from what is keeping them stuck, find calm and peace in the present and build confidence in the future. I specialize in offering holistic, integrative and evidence-based approaches, including EMDR, IFS, CBT, Somatic, KAP and Gottman. My clients find that they feel comfortable, trusting and relaxed with me allowing them to work more deeply. I'm a real person with personal and professional expertise that brings compassion, flexibility and humor, when appropriate.
With 25 years of experience, I have found personalized, integrative approaches to be most effective, helping clients get unstuck from points they've hit in months or years of previous talk therapy or self-help. I bring this expertise to my holistic wellness collective where our holistic therapists specialize in targeting anxiety, trauma and relationships.
I would be happy to chat to learn more about your personal goals. I encourage you to trust yourself as you explore who feels like a good fit. If you are interested in working with me or a therapist at the Collective (varying rates by therapist and approach), please reach out to set up a free consultation. We would be thrilled to welcome you!

Dr. Rosy Saenz-Sierzega
Psychologist, PhD, MA, NBCC
Life is hard, and sometimes life gets messy. Relationships get complicated, emotions get overwhelming, and even when you know something needs to change, you may not know where to start. That's where therapy can help.
My goal is not simply to give you a place to vent (although there is certainly a time and place for that!). I want to help you understand why you're feeling the way you do, identify the patterns that are keeping you stuck, and figure out what you can actually do differently. Therapy should give you insight, but it should also give you tools you can use in real life- to make life easier.
I work with individuals and couples experiencing a wide range of emotional concerns, including anxiety, depression, anger, grief, fear, jealousy, negativity, and feeling overwhelmed or confused. I also have extensive experience working with compulsive and addictive behaviors, including sex and love addiction, codependency, and impulsive behaviors.
Relationships are another major area of my practice. I help people work through conflict, communication problems, infidelity, broken trust, intimacy concerns, breakups, and relationship recovery. I also offer premarital and pre-divorce counseling for couples who want to make thoughtful decisions about their future rather than simply react to what's happening in the moment.
I also work with families who have reached an impasse—situations where communication has broken down, hurt and resentment have accumulated, or family members simply cannot seem to agree on how to move forward. Sometimes everyone involved has a different version of what happened, and everyone feels justified in their position. My role is not to decide who is right or wrong, but to help family members communicate more effectively, understand one another's perspectives, establish healthier boundaries, and determine whether there is a path forward. When families have been stuck for a long time, even finding a way to have a productive conversation can be meaningful progress.
I work with social and personal issues as well, including assertiveness, self-esteem, external validation, peer pressure, bullying, communication, forgiveness, and other challenges that can make it difficult to feel confident and comfortable in your own life.
My approach is primarily Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and solution-focused therapy. In practical terms, that means we'll look at the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors while focusing on what can be changed moving forward. I don't believe you need to spend years analyzing every detail of your past in order to make meaningful progress. Understanding where your patterns came from can be helpful, but learning how to change them is what ultimately creates a different future.
Therapy isn't about being perfect, and it's definitely not about pretending that problems don't exist. We all make mistakes, get stuck in unhealthy patterns, and occasionally make choices we wish we could take back. The important part is what you do next.
My job is to help you move from feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain toward greater clarity, healthier relationships, and a stronger sense of control over your life. You don't have to have everything figured out before you walk through the door. That's part of what we're here to figure out together.

Dr. Sarah Pouliot
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Psychotherapy is most effective when two people (therapist and client) work together to develop a type of therapeutic relationship that not only seeks to make sense of unfolding dynamics but also provides a safe place from which to explore both the known and unknown. In other words, psychotherapy or counseling should offer a meaningful experience, offering new ways of being, relating, and experiencing. Lasting change becomes possible when we are able to find and apply new ways of thinking and feeling about ourselves and others - new ways of relating or responding to the world in which we live and engage.
