Dr. Sophia Aguirre
Psychologist, Ph.D., CGP, F-AGPA
I am a Licensed Psychologist and founder of the Aguirre Center of Inclusive Psychotherapy, a group practiced dedicated to providing culturally-affirming psychotherapy. I have a passion for working with folks who hold marginalized identities including Latinx, BIPOC, LGBTQ+ and relationship-structure minorities.
I have over a decade of experience of providing psychotherapy to individuals, couples, and groups with a wide-range of concerns and struggles, but a common focus in my clinical work is helping individuals establishing healthier, more authentic relationships with themselves and with others.

Dr. Adam Shafer
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
I do my best to listen in the service of understanding and provide thoughtful responsiveness, which I have found helps my clients connect to their inner life and with others. Using gentle honesty and compassion, I value autonomy and collaboration to help people feel less alone while finding a sense of purpose within their lives and in the world.

Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
I'm not your ordinary therapist. I have 20 + years of experience as a therapist, plus I have the life experience of a wife of 43 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!

Janet Scarborough Civitelli
Psychologist, Ph.D., L.P.
One of my favorite questions is, "Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?" by Mary Oliver. I view therapy as a gift to yourself to create more meaningful experiences and develop resilience to overcome life's obstacles.

Rachel Ann Dine
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC, LPC
High functioning anxiety in women looks like: perfectionism, high achieving tendencies, and people-pleasing. Feeling overwhelmed, experiencing worries that keep you from sleeping well, and having difficulty saying no are also common. My expertise is in helping high achieving, ambitious women (who may recognize these symptoms of high functioning anxiety in themselves) learn to manage anxious thoughts, feel more content and at peace with self, and create healthy, reciprocal relationships. Learn to create self-trust, cease the second guessing of self, and feel confident to set healthy boundaries and live life in a way that honors you. Helping women create healthy, fulfilling romantic relationships, feel more confident in the dating and relationship choices you make, and heal from previous hurts in romantic relationships (i.e. infidelity, feeling let down by partners, domestic abuse) using a compassionate trauma informed approach is my subset therapeutic passion. You are so incredibly worthy of knowing what you deserve and feeling empowered to live life in a way that honors your emotional and physical needs.
