Jennifer Pinkerton
Therapist, M.S., LMFT, CTP, C-PD
If you have unresolved trauma it can prevent you from having connections with others and inhibit your ability to function optimally in relationships. Trauma responses can force you into adaptive functions that leave you feeling stuck. In therapy, the emotional healing work can be done on your inner child to create new narratives and establish positive self-regard. Often people are driven by unprocessed emotions that keep you in a reactive cycle when you are merely seeking secure and loving connections. We can work together to resolve the pain you are feeling and address what you want and need out of your life, your relationships, and yourself. It is never too late to develop resiliency and transform your life. I provide a non-judgmental space to share with safety and compassion and consider it I privilege to understand your experience.

Rizaldy R Ferrer
Psychologist, PHD
I’m a clinical psychologist who believes therapy works best when it feels thoughtful, collaborative, and genuinely human. I work with adults who may be navigating stress, life transitions, relationship difficulties, emotional patterns, questions of identity or direction, or simply a sense that something in their lives is no longer working as well as they would like.
My approach is grounded in evidence-based psychology, but I do not believe therapy should feel mechanical or overly clinical. I try to understand each person in the context of their experiences, relationships, values, and the ways they have learned to cope with life. Together, we look not only at what is difficult, but also at the patterns underneath those difficulties and the possibilities for responding differently.
I often help clients develop greater self-awareness, tolerate discomfort more effectively, challenge rigid or unhelpful ways of thinking, and make gradual changes that are realistic and sustainable. At the same time, I believe therapy is not simply about fixing problems. It can also be about understanding yourself more deeply, becoming more intentional in how you live, and creating a life that feels more aligned with what matters to you.
My practice is provided entirely through online therapy, allowing me to work with clients from the privacy and convenience of their own space. I currently provide teletherapy to clients in states where I am licensed or authorized to practice through PSYPACT.

Shawna Damiani
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Hi, I'm Shawna. I'm really glad you're here — and I know that finding the right therapist can feel like a lot. My hope is that by the time you finish reading this, you'll have a sense of who I am and whether we might be a good fit.
I work with adults who are carrying things that feel heavy — whether that's the weight of past trauma, the complexity of relationships that keep hitting the same walls, or the experience of moving through a world that wasn't quite designed for the way your brain works. I specialize in trauma and PTSD, relationship challenges, and supporting adults with ADHD and autism who are often figuring out a lot about themselves for the first time.
A lot of my clients come to me feeling like something is wrong with them. My job — and honestly, my passion — is helping people see that they've been responding to hard things in the most human ways possible. Healing isn't about fixing yourself. It's about understanding yourself.
My approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. I'm not going to sit silently and nod — I show up as a real person in the room with you. Therapy with me tends to feel like an honest, sometimes even humorous conversation, grounded in real tools and genuine care.
If any of this resonates, I'd love to hear from you. Reaching out is the hardest part — and you've already started.

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.

Jonathan Hock -- Men's Work
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I work with men who feel stuck, burned out, or disconnected from themselves, often after years of carrying responsibility, stress, or unresolved trauma alone. Many of the men I see have learned to keep pushing forward without stopping to reflect. As a U.S. Army veteran, I understand that mindset firsthand. Over time, this can lead to emotional numbness, irritability, and a loss of direction or purpose. My approach is existential, blending psychotherapy with enduring philosophical ideas to help you make sense of yourself, your relationships, and your place in the world.
Our work will focus on self-responsibility, recognizing your limitations, and enacting your personal freedom. I guide men to face what they’ve been avoiding, reconnect with their values, and respond to life with intention. With compassion and honesty, I offer no shortcuts. Together, we'll face difficult truths without ignoring the realities of your life.
Your distress isn’t evidence that something is wrong with you, it is often a signal that something meaningful is asking for your attention. Together, we slow down, make sense of it, and decide what kind of life you want to lead. If you’re ready to stop reacting to life, understand yourself more deeply, and take intentional steps forward, please reach out.

Nader Mikhail
Hypnotherapist, C.Ht.
If anxiety, fear or self-doubt has been running the show, and talking about it hasn't changed much, hypnotherapy offers a different route: working directly with the subconscious patterns that keep you stuck.
I'm Nader Mikhail, a certified hypnotherapist and High Honors graduate of the Hypnosis Motivation Institute. I help adults with anxiety and social anxiety, fears and phobias, low confidence, and resentment they can't seem to let go of. I'm LGBTQ+-affirming, and I tailor every session to how your mind responds best, using hypnosis, NLP, imagery and desensitization.
Sessions are by Zoom, with evening and weekend times. Start with a free 15-minute phone consultation: we'll talk about what you want to change and whether hypnotherapy is the right fit.

Hollie Pool
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Therapy that feels like you can finally exhale.
Life is hard enough without your brain turning every little thing into a full-blown investigation. If you’re stuck in overthinking mode, feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, or finding yourself in the same frustrating relationship patterns, I’m here to help you sort through the chaos.
My online therapy practice is a space where you can show up exactly as you are, messy thoughts, big feelings, awkward pauses, and all. No judgment, no pressure to have the perfect words, and no need to pretend you have everything figured out. Just real conversations, genuine connection, and support that meets you where you are.
I believe therapy should feel personal, practical, and even a little fun. Together, we’ll work to understand what’s keeping you stuck, build tools you can actually use in everyday life, and help you feel more confident, connected, and at peace with yourself. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, working through past experiences, or trying to build healthier relationships, you don’t have to figure it all out alone.
You don’t have to wait until things feel unbearable to ask for support. If you’re ready to stop just getting through the days and start feeling more like yourself again, I’d love to connect. Reach out to schedule a consultation, and let’s see if we’re a good fit. You bring the real-life stuff; we’ll figure out the next steps together.

Rachel Eddins
Counselor/Therapist, MEd, LPC
If you are looking for guidance with anxiety, fears, depression, or trauma and ptsd, it takes courage to ask for help. Admitting you can’t do everything on your own, is the first step toward achieving wellness in a fast-paced, demanding world.
You are an expert on your situation. You understand it better than anyone because you are always in it, but when was the last time you stepped away to look at it from a new perspective? My approach is focused on helping you feel that you are whole, capable, enough, and doing your best - because you are.
Maybe, you just need some new skills to cope with all that goes on in your life. What you have learned in life never covered this. Or, perhaps, you've been feeling stuck in the same cycle of symptoms and are ready to try new skills to gain relief. We will work together to implement practical skills, create new habits, and get you moving again.
My approach is more active. I will be an active participant in your healing journey. Together, we will identify your most important goals and needs and work on a plan to get you there.

Matthew Jones
Licensed Professional Counselor, MSCC, LPC
I began to pursue being a therapist because it is a source of healing and understanding and I want to help nurture that in others. I believe in paying it forward. There is a need to provide affordable and accessible mental health care. Therapy is a tool by which people can grow in the understanding of themselves and the world around them. IT is important to provide ethical and reliable care to those who want and need it. I try to guide the patient through the therapeutic experience by providing REST (Respect, Equality, Safety, and Trust.) This is one of the basic principles that I believe creates a healthy relationship. Come join me a safe space.

Dr. Vincent Dyer - Dyer Psychology, Inc
Psychologist, PsyD
Most of the people I work with are functioning — sometimes very well — but privately aware that something deserves real attention. That might be burnout, grief, anxiety that doesn't have an obvious source, a relationship under strain, or a growing sense that who they are and who they've become don't quite line up.
What they have in common isn't a career level or a specific presenting problem. It's that they're serious about understanding what's actually going on — not just getting through it.
My practice is private pay and selective. I also conduct comprehensive psychological evaluations for adults, including ADHD assessment and diagnostic clarification. I hold a PSYPACT license, meaning I'm authorized to provide telehealth therapy across 40+ states — the full list is above.
If this sounds like where you are, a brief consultation is a low-stakes way to find out if we're a good fit.
