Kelsey Ellis
Psychologist, Ph.D., LCP
Many of the women I work with are capable, caring, and used to holding everything together, even when it comes at the cost of their own bandwidth. From the outside, life may look steady, but internally there can be tension, exhaustion, or a quiet sense of disconnection. I offer trauma informed, relational therapy for women who are ready to understand themselves more deeply and find a way of living that feels more sustainable. My work is grounded in attachment and nervous system awareness, and I approach therapy as a collaborative process rooted in genuine conversation rather than quick fixes. If you are looking for a space where you can show up honestly and feel met as a whole person, I invite you to connect for a consultation.

Rebecca Castle-Waller
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
CURRENTLY ACCEPTING WAITLIST CLIENTS
Hey Survivor, are you tired of feeling guilty and overwhelmed all the time? Everyone else seems so together and you're stuck battling your past? I get it. My name is Rebecca Castle-Waller and I help badass women with trauma become present in their lives and in their relationships, so you can actually enjoy this life you've built.
Many of my clients grew up in chaotic and unstable homes where from a young age they started taking care of others. Making meals, waking their parents up for work, getting their siblings off to school. From there, you went on to take care of your partner and your kiddos while also working hard to keep everything running smoothly. Now with work and relationships and family drama and life you feel constantly stressed out and like you should be doing more. Oh, and you're doing all of this while facing nightmares, flashbacks, numbness, random waves of anger, and the like. Who's taking care of you?
Let's give you a space where you can be your messy, imperfect self so you can finally take care of you. It's time to heal your trauma, you've built an amazing life and you deserve to actually live it.

Andrea Kamins
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW, MSW
People often come to therapy feeling anxious, depressed, stuck or overwhelmed and aren't sure why. I specialize in treating anxiety disorders, depression, trauma/complex PTSD, and childhood emotional neglect (CEN). I particularly enjoy working with highly sensitive people (HSP), neurodiverse individuals, and adult survivors of childhood trauma. I enjoy working with adults age 21 and older who are motivated to create meaningful change in life and work, and deepen self-understanding. My clients enjoy my direct, warm style and sense of humor.

Marina Harris, Bloom Psychology Group
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P, CMPC
Whether you're dealing with big stress, big feelings, or big competitions, I can help. Most teen and adult clients come to see me for anxiety, sport psychology, and eating disorders. Our work will help you feel more confident in yourself, more poised under pressure, and more capable. You will feel free from rules and perfectionism. You won't let your weight define you. You will know your worth isn't dependent on your achievements. You will finally eliminate that voice in your head telling you that you aren't enough.
I understand the pressure felt by high achievers and perfectionists because I've been there. I know what it's like to have mental blocks in sport, to run a business, to feel so anxious that you feel paralyzed - but I also know the way out. I blend my expertise as a former Division I athlete and a doctoral-level psychologist to bring you an elite level of training, expertise, and lived experience. I help clients feel heard and understood in meetings, and use strategies that actually get clients results in their life outside of meetings. Clients can feel empowered knowing they are using their values to achieve maximum performance and well-being. You can learn more about me, my work, and how it will help you live a more fulfilling life at www.bloompsychologync.com.

Tricia Mazza
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
You’re not “too sensitive.” You’re responding to something that doesn’t make sense—and you’re trying to make sense of it alone. If you’ve found yourself questioning your reality, over-explaining your feelings, or wondering how you ended up in another one-sided or emotionally confusing relationship, you’re not the only one—and you’re not imagining it. I work with women who are beginning to recognize patterns of narcissistic or emotionally manipulative relationships—whether in romantic partnerships, family dynamics, or both. Many of the women I support are high-functioning, self-aware, and deeply empathetic. From the outside, it looks like you have it together. Internally, you may feel exhausted, stuck in overthinking, or unsure how to trust your own instincts anymore. This work is about helping you name what’s happening, not dismiss it.
