Paul T. Haefner, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
I came to this work by two roads that turned out to be one. I trained as a clinical psychologist with a physics degree behind me and a lifelong love of horses beside me and for more than 30 years I've helped people change in ways that last.
When I founded Riding Far, I expected to coach elite competitors chasing a mental edge. Instead, the people who walked through my door were often carrying something heavier: fear after a bad fall, the ache of an injury, the sting of a relationship — human or equine — that had gone wrong. That taught me what my work is really about. Not fixing people, but helping them feel safe enough to be fully themselves again, and to stay connected while they do it.
Whether you sit across from me by video or beside me at the office, my promise is the same: I'll meet you where you are, take your story seriously, and help you find your way forward with honesty, warmth, and courage.

Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
We often seek therapy because we are hurting and unhappy in our relationships with others and ourselves. Anxiety, sadness, restlessness, and loneliness are often the clues that we feel off-track. Whether you are new to it, or have been in it before, therapy presents the opportunity to invite a professional fellow human into your journey of meaningful living.
I provide evidence-based treatment for anxiety, relational, and trauma-related concerns for neurotypical and neurodivergent adults. I also work with individuals seeking to explore and understand their experiences of gender and sexuality. Our work begins with clarifying the nature of and sources of your concerns, setting a path forward, and working together to help you implement and maintain the changes you seek.

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.

Johanna Wood, Leap Counseling and Consultation
Psychologist, PhD
I specialize in exposure-based therapies for OCD and anxiety disorders. My clients typically have tried therapy before, but have not seen much improvement. They continue living in fear, anxiety, and guilt, as their lives continue getting smaller and smaller. This is because OCD and most anxiety disorders require specialized treatment. Coping skills are great, but they can only get you so far. The good news is, there are science-backed treatments for OCD and for anxiety that actually work. If you're ready to stop coping and start living, take a leap of faith and reach out.
My style is structured and balances use of the latest science with compassion and understanding. My goal is to make you feel heard, and feel challenged. I serve adults with primary issues of OCD and anxiety, and I also address co-occurring depression, insomnia, body-focused repetitive behaviors, and trauma, using cognitive-behavioral therapies. I address all forms of OCD and anxiety, but I have a special interest in scrupulosity (religious- and moral-based) OCD. I love helping people stop letting their OCD hijack their sources of meaning and get back to having faith in faith again.
