Kelly McAleer
Psychologist, Psy.D.
You may be accomplished, capable, and the person others rely on, yet still find yourself overthinking, second-guessing, or feeling like what you do is never quite enough. I offer thoughtful, engaged therapy that goes beyond simply managing symptoms to understand the patterns, relationships, and experiences that keep you stuck. With nearly nearly 20 years of experience, I provide a warm, down-to-earth, and inclusive space where people of all identities and backgrounds are welcomed and respected.

Bold Expressions Therapy
Psychologist, Psy.D.
As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, a trauma survivor, and someone with a chronic pain disorder; I approach the work that I do from a place of empathy and personal understanding. I have an intense passion for understanding personal identity and the way race, culture, class, and sexuality come together to form what we believe about ourselves and what we feel we can accomplish in our lives. Anxiety and trauma can live in our bodies - together we will create a relationship that fosters dynamic and lasting growth, tapping into undiscovered reserves of resiliency that will help navigate the past and prepare for a more hopeful future.

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.

Dr. Jason Wang, Inflection Points Therapy
Psychologist, PhD
Transitions in life and work can bring both possibility and uncertainty. You may be preparing for a new chapter, weighing an important personal, career, or financial decision, or struggling with a sense of being stuck. You may also be considering how to create a life that feels more fulfilling, sustainable, and aligned with your values. The decisions you make and circumstances you face during such periods can meaningfully shape what comes next. Although these moments can be stressful, they can also invite deeper reflection on identity, relationships, mental health, and how you want to live. You do not have to work through them alone.

I welcome clients of all identities and have particular experience working with LGBTQ+ folks, college students and young adults, older adults, and Veterans.
