Nathan Duff
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.Ed., LPC (CCTP, CYMHS, C-DBT, C-PD)
So every therapist will say they want clients to feel genuinely understood, and I think they do, but I've watched a few whole anime series that I don't personally like just to get more insight on a teen client, and I've read books and research journals for adult clients with unusual circumstances. I only mention it to point out that I'm highly motivated to "get" someone's experience, whatever that may be. I’m committed to honoring each client’s right to self-determination, guiding them toward their own goals rather than imposing my personal views. Part of that is also letting clients in on my thought process "behind the scenes" as much as I can.

Jordan Johnson, Creating Connection PLC
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC(WI), LPC(VA), LPCC(MN)
Individuals and couples that work with me find that they are able to better understand complicated dynamics that occur in their relationships, including insecure attachment, negative core beliefs, and effects of past traumas on current relationships. I also help individuals process through fears, depression, and other mental health concerns from a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) approach.

Dr. Anna Smith
Psychologist, PsyD, MEd, MA
I'm Dr. Anna Smith (she/her), a Licensed Psychologist and Certified Sex Therapist. I offer online sex therapy, couples therapy, & relationship counseling across the US in 40+ states — for people who want deeper intimacy, more honest communication, & relationships that feel good.
What makes my practice different is that it’s built entirely around deep relational and sexual intimacy—nothing else. With over a decade focused exclusively on couples and sex therapy, AASECT certification, and advanced training in Emotionally Focused Therapy and trauma-informed care, I’m not a generalist who happens to see couples; this is the work I love.
Clients tell me they finally feel seen, supported, and gently challenged in the exact ways they need. If you care deeply about your relationship (or your relationship with yourself) but feel stuck, exhausted by the same patterns, or unsure how to talk about sex without shame, I’d be honored to help. You deserve a therapist who specializes in exactly what you’re struggling with—and who can help you create the safety, closeness, and pleasure you’ve been longing for. Let’s talk.
**Note: I'm a private-pay clinician and don't bill insurance directly or accept insurance. Sessions are $225, and I'm happy to provide a superbill you can submit for possible out-of-network reimbursement.

Jerrod Johnson
Psychologist, PsyD
Being human means having anxiety, doubt, and painful experiences, but it also means having the capacity to grow, heal, and choose how we want to live. I work with people who want to better understand what’s getting in the way and start living more fully as the person they want to be.
