Michael Montero
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW
You may have spent years trying to make sense of who you are, yet still feel like something is missing. Maybe you've wondered where you fit, why it can feel difficult to connect with others, or whether there's room to fully be yourself.
Many of the clients I work with are reexamining long-held assumptions about themselves, exploring their relationship patterns, or navigating their evolving sense of their own identity, including culture, sexuality, or neurodivergence. Some have spent so long adapting to expectations that they find it difficult to recognize what feels most authentic to them. If any of this feels familiar, you don't have to keep searching for answers on your own.
Whether you're starting therapy for the first time or looking for something different, my goal is to create a space where you can show up as you are — without feeling like you need to over-explain or defend your experiences. Together, we'll better understand what has shaped you and find practical, sustainable ways to move forward with the life you want.
If this sounds like what you're looking for, I offer a Free 15-minute Video Consultation so we can talk about what's bringing you to therapy and see if working together feels like a good fit.

Dr. Jeffrey Spodak
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I specialize in working with people who are depressed or dealing with addiction, (alcohol abuse and compulsive sexual behaviors in particular). Sometimes even just beginning to speak out loud about your struggles can start the process of change. In our work together, we won't just manage your symptoms; we will look deeper. By exploring how these challenges first took root, you can gain the clarity needed to make empowered decisions today. This combination of insight and action can create powerful and lasting change.

Chelsie Ciminelli
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Holistic Health Practitioner
I believe that the work we do with others is deeply influenced by the work we are willing to do within ourselves. My own healing journey has profoundly shaped the therapist I am today. I have experienced my own process of moving through old patterns, becoming more deeply connected to myself, learning to listen to my body and intuition, and discovering that healing is not about becoming someone different. It is about coming home to who we truly are. I consider myself both a therapist and an intuitive healer and guide. I bring my clinical training and professional experience together with a deep trust in intuition, the wisdom of the body, and the idea that there is often more happening beneath the surface than what we can immediately see or explain. I pay attention not only to what you tell me, but also to what I sense may be asking for attention within the therapeutic space.
My hope is that you feel deeply seen, heard, and accepted when you are with me. You do not need to have the right words, understand exactly what is wrong, or arrive with everything figured out. We can begin wherever you are.
I feel honored to walk alongside people during some of the most vulnerable and transformative chapters of their lives. I don't see myself as someone who has all the answers, but rather as someone who can help you listen more deeply to your own inner wisdom and reconnect with the parts of yourself that already know the way forward.
