Alan Jacobson, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, Nationally Registered Health Service Provider
I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years of experience working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families to create meaningful, measurable change in how they feel, function, and relate to others. My approach is evidence-based, empathic, and solution-focused, with therapy centered on helping you achieve clear goals so that progress is noticeable in daily life. I work with a wide range of concerns—including anxiety, low mood, loss, self-doubt, and life transitions—and have particular expertise in performance psychology, public speaking anxiety, panic attacks, fear of flying, and questions of purpose or meaning. If you’re unsure whether therapy is the right next step, I also offer a one-time consultation assessment to help clarify what may be contributing to your current stress and identify effective pathways forward, whether through therapy or other strategies.

Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Something in you knows that what you're carrying runs deeper than the presenting problem.
Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable, and outwardly composed-yet internally they live with anxiety, depression, chronic tension or pain, relentless self-criticism, or a sense that something essential is blocked, muted, or just out of reach. These struggles may surface in mood, in the body, in behavior, or in relationships-including sexuality and intimacy-but they are rarely contained to any one area. They tend to reflect deeper emotional and relational patterns formed early in life, often before language, that continue to shape how a person approaches closeness, vulnerability, agency, pleasure, and self-expression.
My work centers on how early experience shapes the capacity for self-regulation, desire, connection, and meaning throughout life-and particularly on how people come to know what they need and want, how they learn to express or inhibit those impulses, and what happens when these capacities become conflicted, constricted, or difficult to sustain.
I integrate psychoanalytic hypnotherapy, somatic awareness, and clinical sexology within a reflective, depth-oriented process. Hypnosis functions as a central clinical tool-creating conditions for deeper internal contact with emotional, bodily, and unconscious experience that can be difficult to reach through conversation alone. The aim is not only relief from symptoms, but the development of a more coherent and compassionate relationship with one's inner life: sensations, emotions, impulses, and desires.
This work is oriented toward lasting psychological change-and toward greater freedom in how one relates to oneself, one's body, and one's capacity for connection, authenticity, and vitality. It is best suited to those ready to move beyond symptom management toward something more fundamental.

Sarah Eisenhauer Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHC, LCPC, LPC, AADC
I work with adults using a psychodynamic, depth approach (looking at how the past effects the present and considering root causes, not just symptoms), while also taking into account thoughts and behaviors (CBT & DBT) in order to help individuals make change. I work with individuals who are experiencing effects from trauma, who want to improve their relationships, further explore themselves and the roles they play in their world, women’s issues, anxiety, and life transitions. I also offer Ketamine Assisted Therapy for appropriate individuals who may be looking to deepen their work.
Our relationship provides a safe, authentic and nonjudgmental place for you to explore reactions, thoughts, and feelings about relationships and experiences in your life, and your place within this system. I believe that each individual has a unique view of the world based on their personal experiences, and we incorporate this as we work toward your goals.

Nancy Hayes-Gary, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, MD , Psy.D.
I have been a psychologist in trauma work for many years, thus I can tailor my approach to meet your needs. Different ages and developmental stages throughout the life span require differing approaches. People generally wait to start therapy until their symptoms are really bothersome. I am currently accepting new patients, with no waiting list.
