Dr. Jeannine Pablo
Psychologist, LP, LCMHC, MLADC
My life’s work is dedicated to helping individuals step out of survival mode and reclaim their autonomy, clarity, and peace. Throughout my two decades as a practicing clinician, I have learned that true growth requires moving far beyond traditional "talk therapy." Real, sustainable change happens when we actively bridge the gap between clinical insight and daily, practical action.
Living with deep-seated anxiety, complex trauma, ADHD, or the heavy weight of addiction can make your world feel incredibly small, exhausting, and isolated. My mission is to provide you with an entirely safe, collaborative, and non-judgmental space where your story is met with deep clinical expertise and genuine human reverence. Because no two individuals share the same path, I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Whether we are utilizing EMDR to safely reprocess traumatic triggers, implementing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to disarm intrusive thought patterns, or applying holistic strategies to regulate a highly stressed nervous system, our work will be entirely tailored to your unique biology, history, and goals.
As a dually licensed Clinical Psychologist and Master Level Alcohol and Other Drug Counselor (MLADC), I specialize in untangling co-occurring disorders. I am uniquely equipped to help you heal the psychological pain and trauma that so often drive compulsive or self-sabotaging behaviors. I look at your mental health through an integrative lens, honoring the profound connection between your mind, your physical body, and your lifestyle.
By transitioning my practice to a fully virtual, telehealth format, I have intentionally removed the logistical barriers of traditional therapy. You no longer have to navigate commutes, traffic, or crowded waiting rooms to access elite psychological care. Our sessions take place entirely online, allowing you to process your most vulnerable challenges from the absolute safety, comfort, and anonymity of your own chosen space. You do not have to walk the path of recovery or self-discovery alone. Together, we will uncover your inherent strengths, quiet your inner critic, and build the concrete, daily tools you need to live a life aligned with your true values and authentic potential.

Dr. Caroline Hicks
Psychologist, PhD, LP
You deserve a space where you don’t have to explain or shrink who you are. I work from a queer-affirming, trans-affirming, and trauma-informed lens to support individuals navigating identity, transition, relationships, and major life changes. Many of my clients come in feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from their authenticity, or unsure of the next step. Together we create space to slow down, explore, and reconnect with yourself.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in empowerment. Whether you're questioning, in transition, or working through old patterns, I’m here to support you in building a life that feels aligned with your truth. Therapy with me isn’t about “fixing” you. It’s about helping you feel seen, grounded, and understood.

Dr. Kelsi Clayson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and grounded in genuine connection—with a touch of humor along the way. I support clients through life’s challenges, including anxiety, depression, unresolved trauma, relational struggles, and major transitions. Together, we’ll explore the patterns that support your well-being and those that may be holding you back, always with a focus on your unique values, needs, and goals. Drawing from evidence-based therapies, I tailor our work to help you feel empowered, deepen self-understanding, and move toward meaningful change. Taking this step toward healing is courageous, and I’m here to walk alongside you as you create the life you want.

Soma Aloia, SoulWork Somatics & Somatic Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LCST, HES
Healing isn't about fixing what's wrong with you - there is nothing wrong with you. Healing is permission to your nervous system to experience the safety, support, and connection it may have missed earlier in life. When the body begins to feel safe, many symptoms that once seemed unrelated can begin to make sense. Then you begin to heal and develop into your full potential. I create a safe space for you to slow down, settle, and be yourself. I help you make sense of complex experiences that seem disconnected so you can heal into wholeness.
