Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)
Dr. Ruth Viehoff
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP
Hello, I'm Dr. Ruth Viehoff, and it's a pleasure to virtually meet you! My practice is geared towards gen Z and millennial clients who struggle with anxiety, worry, perfectionism, and ADHD. My clients are often college students, graduate students, or are early in their careers as high-powered professionals. I have experience working with physicians and other medical professionals, engineers, high-stress business professionals, and lawyers. Often my clients over-schedule, over-optimize, and feel like they are working so hard to keep things in order in their lives. To other people, it may appear that you have it all together, but they don't see your internal struggle, your sense of overwhelm, and your hope that you will finally get a grasp on things tomorrow. Often my clients rely on achievement and external forms of validation and praise to feel like they are doing enough. They struggle to internally approve of themselves and their efforts. In therapy, I help my clients to cultivate self-compassion, re-evaluate and replace unhealthy personal standards, and increase attention to their own internal wants, needs, and opinions. Therapy is an opportunity to cultivate your own internal sense of knowing and increase your sense of agency in your own life. Reach out to me today to book a free consultation call!

Kristina Peck
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Let’s be honest—life is hard. Messy, beautiful, overwhelming, and at times downright ridiculous. If you’re struggling (like most of us are at some point), you deserve a space that feels safe, supportive, and—believe it or not—a little bit lighter.
I’m a seasoned therapist who brings clinical expertise and a human touch. That means evidence-based approaches grounded in years of experience, paired with humor, compassion, and real talk. I believe in validating your experience while gently helping you shift what’s not working.
Therapy with me isn’t about judgment—it’s about connection. I create a space where you can exhale, show up exactly as you are, and start untangling what’s holding you back. I normalize the human condition because, well, we’re all just trying to get through this thing called life. Let’s do it together—with insight, laughter, and a whole lot of heart.

Dr. Brittany Jacobson
Psychologist, PhD, CST
I specialize in trauma therapy, PTSD, relationship issues, sexual concerns, body image, self-esteem, stress, and nervous system dysregulation. Many of the clients I work with feel stuck in patterns that affect their relationships, self-worth, or ability to feel grounded in their body and daily life. My approach is trauma-informed, relational, and holistic, blending talk therapy with emotional processing and mind-body awareness to support meaningful and sustainable change.
In our work together, I focus on creating a safe and collaborative space where we can slow down and understand the deeper roots of what you’re experiencing. This often includes exploring how past experiences, stress responses, and relationship patterns are affecting you now. I will help you in healing the past and reducing worry about the future, so you can find more joy and peace in the present moment. Sessions will go at your pace and be personalized to your needs, with an emphasis on building self-trust, emotional regulation, and greater ease in your life. I'm always happy to talk more about how my approach can help with your specific concerns. Feel free to contact me to schedule a free 15 minute consultation!
