Lindsey Lucius
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-S
I'm so glad you're here! I specialize in working with adults navigating chronic health conditions, trauma, people-pleasing, and emotional exhaustion. I help people connect with their inner world so they can grow kinder to themselves and live more authentically.
People living with chronic health conditions or a disability can carry experiences of medical trauma, emotional invalidation, burnout, anxiety, or feeling deeply misunderstood by others. As a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP) living with hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS), Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS), I understand firsthand the complexity of living in a body that can feel misunderstood. My approach is warm, relational and trauma-informed, integrating IFS and EMDR to help you develop a more compassionate relationship with your inner world, and a more authentic relationship to your external world.

Kevin Brown, Therapy in Mindfulness
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
You're here because you're feeling stressed, stuck, or simply wanting to grow—and I’m here to help. Together, we will navigate the internal and external challenges you’re facing, so you can move through them with greater ease and clarity. In our work, your feelings, process, and perspective will be validated and supported in a safe, compassionate space. And sometimes, we don’t always see or understand what we truly need. My approach to therapy helps you develop the skills to navigate relational and emotional challenges while deepening your understanding of what may be missing and how to meet those needs. Life is already hard enough—you don’t have to do it alone. I’m here to offer you a safe, skillful, and supportive space so you don’t have to.

Haley Busch
Psychologist, Ph.D., L.P.
My life’s work is helping clients slow down and truly be with themselves long enough to understand who they are, what they need, and how they want to move forward. It's an honor to walk alongside professionals and parents navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship difficulties, including attachment-related patterns. I also specialize in perinatal mental health: pregnancy-related and postpartum anxiety and depression, infertility, miscarriage, and pregnancy after loss. I'm especially well-matched for high-achieving adults who sense there's something deeper going on and feel ready to dig in.

I have a passion for helping clients reduce anxiety, stress, confusion, sadness, and pain - so that they can live more fulfilling, authentic, and happy lives. Many of my clients have stated that coming to therapy has helped to catapult them out of their stagnation - enabling them to reach their full potential. For clients who have had difficulty finding a therapist who can understand their complex and intersecting identities, I can be a breath of fresh air. I work with folks ages 15 and up.

Courtney Loyola
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
Becoming — Not Broken.
You've found yourself researching 'Am I a narcissist?' in the middle of the night, you have constant questions as to 'How did I get here?' and 'Why do these things keep happening to me?' You've lost someone very close to you and now you are spinning out and can't seem to find your feet. You keep repeating patterns that bring the same people into your life and leave you in pieces after they've left. You're ready to change, you just don't know how or where to start.
I believe healing is not about fixing what’s wrong with you, but uncovering the strength and resilience that have always been there. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by complex trauma, narcissistic abuse, or deep grief. Together, we create a safe, grounded space where painful experiences can be processed and integrated — not avoided. Our work is centered on helping you reconnect with your voice, your clarity, and your capacity for secure relationships.

Amority Health - Rachel Cooper - Therapy for High-Achieving Women
Therapist, MS, LPC Associate
If you’re a high-achieving woman in the HFHA loop of constant striving to get things “right,” struggling to say no, or feeling anxious and exhausted from relentlessly trying to keep up with everything, you understand firsthand how overwhelming it's becoming to maintain the mask.
You may find yourself overthinking decisions, being highly self-critical, or feeling like you can’t quite settle, even when things are going well. Over time, these patterns can become mentally exhausting and difficult to shift.
In session, we focus on understanding what’s driving these patterns and aim to develop a more flexible, sustainable way of thinking, responding, and relating to yourself.

After 25 years as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in CA, TX & FL. I know conflict is not the problem. Conflict is natural in close relationships. What matters most is HOW couples talk to each other when emotions run high. That’s why I created the research-based Happily Partnered Playbook — to help couples end negative cycles and grow closer.

Dr. Jacob Lebar
Psychologist, PhD, JD
Figuring out how to create meaningful change in your life can feel overwhelming, especially if you aren't sure where to start. I work with and for adults to manage the daily realities of anxiety, OCD, panic, and comorbid depression. My practice is explicitly neurodiversity-affirming; I dedicate a significant portion of my work to helping adults unpack the impact of living with overlooked ADHD or Autism into adulthood. Additionally, my background as a former lawyer gives me a grounded, firsthand perspective on the unique stressors faced by individuals in highly technical, high-pressure professional fields. If you are ready to explore what therapy can do for you, we may be a great fit.

Christine Fatherree @ Unwritten In Stone Psychotherapy PLLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker
I believe I have 2 superpowers. One is listening and the other is being curious. These create a powerful amalgam for change when used with proven therapeutic tools. Change can be scary, but sometimes we take a step into the unknown in spite of our fear. I believe this is being brave. That is the step that can move you toward the change and understanding you want.

Madison Short Conteh - Joy in the Morning Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, RPT
I've been practicing as a Licensed Professional Counselor and Registered Play Therapist for nearly a decade now, and I love this work because it is so full of hope. Usually, when people come to see me, they're not feeling very hopeful, because the problem feels too big to handle. It's sucking the joy out of their relationships, or their life, and they're overwhelmed. Life has let them down, they've been disappointed, and now they're stuck in a spiral of the worst feelings. Some part of them though, knows there is hope out there, that things can be better and they can have relief. That's where therapy, and my role in your story, comes in. I get to hold the hope for you, because I know this path. I've been walking it with people just like you for years. I know that parts of this path are hard, or scary, or beautiful, or relaxing, and I know that all of it is heading towards you experiencing freedom. We walk it together so that you don't have to hold your own burdens,
I have special skills that help us along the path like EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). This is a way we use the brain's natural ability to process information, and alleviate feeling stuck in a past experience or experiences. It's especially useful for trauma.
I use Person Centered Talk Therapy. We create the space to sit together with what's on your mind or your heart, to give it what it needs, and move through it.
I use Child Centered Play Therapy so that kids can have the same benefits of therapy as adults, but in a child-attuned way. Kids aren't ready to talk through things, they express them through behaviors. Play therapy gives kids the opportunity to play through those behaviors and find healing.
With parents I offer Child Parent Relationship Therapy training, where I give you the same tools I use as a therapist, but to use within your own home.
In all of this, I often integrate things like somatic work, parts work, and sandtray work.

Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
I'm not your ordinary therapist. I have 26 + years of experience as a therapist, plus I have the life experience of a wife of 46 years, mother of two, and grandmother of four. I am the therapist that people come in and say, "Wow, you helped me more in one session than I got out of years with several other therapists." I am fun, direct, empathetic, but direct so that you can have the results you are looking for in a short amount of time. I love what I do, so it's not work to me. I'm very interactive in sessions so there won't be many times where I just sit there and don't provide feedback. I'm the type of therapist that will call you out on your stuff so I can help you meet your goals and have better relationships with others. I love talking with potential clients to see if I'm a good fit. After a phone call with me you will be able to get a sense if I'm a good fit for you. Please give me a call and let's chat!
