Interpersonal Therapy (IPT)
Dr. Amber Thornton
Psychologist, PsyD
As a clinical psychologist and trauma expert, I help parents + adults heal from generational trauma and cultivate emotionally healthy families built on connection, peace, and intention. You deserve to show up as the person, partner, and parent you want to be—grounded, whole, and emotionally present.
I work with adults who are ready to heal old wounds, release survival-mode patterns, and create lives that feel balanced and emotionally fulfilling. Together, we focus on helping you prioritize your own wellness, so that you can experience more ease, connection, and joy in every part of your life.
You’ve spent so much of your life holding it all together. You’ve shown up for everyone else while quietly carrying the weight of old patterns, stress, or self-doubt. I’m here to help you heal what’s beneath the surface, so you can experience more ease, confidence, and connection within yourself and in your relationships.
My therapy and parent coaching services are designed to meet you exactly where you are in your journey toward emotional wellness, growth, and freedom. I'm excited to work with you!

Interpersonal Therapy (IPT)
Dr. Wayne Bullock
Psychologist, PsyD, MEd
Life is filled with challenges. We all approach these challenges in characteristic ways that are shaped by the life we have lived up until that moment. We learn how to respond to challenges based on what has been helpful in the past. As we grow and move through life, these ways of coping can become less advantageous. Sometimes we get stuck in our responses to stress, and this can exacerbate negative feelings. I can help you learn to notice these patterns, the ways they have helped, and the ways in which they no longer serve you. Together, we will work to create more options for you to respond to the challenges of life.

Interpersonal Therapy (IPT)
Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver
Psychologist, Psy.D.
If you're a high-achieving woman who looks strong on the outside but are quietly unraveling inside, you're not alone. I provide trauma informed therapy for women dealing with antagonistic, narcissistic, emotionally toxic and abusive relationships. Burnout is serious and not something you can just get over. I offer practical, solution focused strategies focused on recognizing the patterns, doing deep healing on yourself, set boundaries without guilt, and start protecting yourself (whether you stay or go). If your navigating a high conflict divorce, dealing with gaslighting, trying to coparent,(parallel parenting), and/or dealing with post-separation abuse, you need someone who understands these dynamics and supports you to stop questioning yourself, while building yourself back up. I help women move from surviving to thriving. Reach out today. You don't have to do this alone.

Interpersonal Therapy (IPT)
Dr. Jillian Neill
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
Growth and change are hard for everyone. They are even harder if we do not have the insight and the tools to help us navigate them. My goal as a therapist is to help you live the life you want to be leading: a life aligned with your values and focused on what is important to you. The road to adult "success" can be full of unexpected detours and barriers. Sometimes, we need support overcoming those barriers or even charting an entirely new path from our previous notions of what it means to be happy, whole, or fulfilled.
Using a variety of approaches, I work with clients to heal old wounds, understand their patterns, and examine the present and the future to build towards their goals. I am trained in EMDR to treat trauma, and also use talk therapy approaches to help clients achieve healing and balance in their lives.

Sharon Schonteich
Psychologist, PhD
I help clients who are feeling overwhelmed, stressed or depleted to make sense of their struggles and create an actionable, accessible plan for change. My approach combines tactical skill building with broader insight, helping you to develop more clearly defined personal goals and boundaries, and an increased sense of personal agency and self-acceptance. I strive for clients to feel seen, heard and supported as we build towards a greater sense of wellbeing, balance and more satisfying relationships.
I specialize in college students through mature adults, with a particular emphasis on individuals navigating life transitions or complex roles as individuals, partners, employees and family members. My areas of specialty include anxiety and depression, stress and work-life balance, life transitions, infertility and the perinatal period, somatic concerns/chronic illness, and family and relationships.
I am actively affirming and welcoming to individuals of all gender identities, ethnicities, sexual orientations and religions. Originally from South Africa, I worked in global consulting, government and industry before becoming a psychotherapist, and draw on these experiences in my work with clients.
