Navjoat Kaur
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSWAIC
What makes my therapy approach meaningful is the blend of warmth, cultural awareness, and practical support I bring into every session. Clients often tell me they feel genuinely seen and understood, sometimes for the first time, because I take the time to learn their story, honor their lived experiences, and meet them where they are. I focus on helping people make real, lasting shifts in how they relate to themselves and the people they care about, without judgment or pressure. If you're feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of your next step, reaching out is a powerful place to start. I’d be honored to support you in building clarity, confidence, and a stronger sense of emotional wellbeing.

Daniel Hong
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC
At times, life can feel heavy, uncertain, or disconnected from the sense of direction we long for. In those moments, it can be difficult to believe that change is possible, and you don’t have to navigate that experience alone. I support individuals facing depression, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem challenges, relationship concerns, existential questions, cultural stressors, neurodivergence, and other emotional difficulties. I view therapy as a collaborative space where new understanding can emerge, inner resources can be rediscovered, and hope can slowly take shape again. Within a compassionate and attuned relationship, growth can unfold in ways that honor who you are and the pace that feels right for you.
Reaching out for therapy can feel like a vulnerable step, yet it is also a meaningful investment in yourself. You don’t need perfect words or certainty to begin — simply showing up is enough. When you feel ready, I would welcome the opportunity to work alongside you as you move toward greater clarity, connection, and a life that feels more aligned with what matters to you.

Brittany Rine
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Welcome! I am thrilled that you are here and are considering getting the help that you need. I’m Brittany, Licensed Mental Health Counseling Associate. I received my MA in Clinical Mental Health from Northwest University in Kirkland, Washington. The bulk of my clinical experience has been with women and children who have experienced various types of trauma. Now having transitioned into private practice, I work primarily with individuals who want to see improvements in regards to their self-esteem.
You can find comfort in the fact that I have identified the work that is required of us to create a different reality for you from a personal and professional level. In this reality, you consider your feelings and needs, you have stopped the people pleasing, and you have the confidence that is required to achieve your dreams. Everyone’s journey through these struggles looks different, so ours won’t look the same, but we both have fought and are fighting the same battle.
As you already know, the fight isn’t an easy one. There will be work required from the both of us. I have nothing but the utmost confidence in you that you can and will win this battle, and when you do you’ll see the strength that has always been inside of you.

Ciera Coyan
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I love meeting clients exactly where they are at. I often work with folks who can be very self-critical, usually because they've learned to believe harmful messages about themselves. They might have heard that they aren't good enough because of their beliefs, their sexuality, their neurodivergent brains, or any number of reasons. I help my clients learn to change that narrative. To honestly and fearlessly look at themselves with compassion and acceptance. It's only from that place of compassionate acceptance that can we create meaningful, lasting change.

Alexzia Wagner
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LSWAIC
I specialize in helping couples, mothers, and young adults who feel like something in their life or relationships isn’t working the way they want. You might find yourselves having the same arguments on repeat, feeling overwhelmed or unlike yourself in motherhood, or questioning what direction your life is actually heading.
As a relational therapist, I focus on the deeper patterns shaping how you experience yourself and others. Many of my clients are thoughtful and self-aware, but still feel stuck in cycles they can’t seem to shift.
Together, we’ll slow things down and make sense of what’s happening underneath the surface so you can feel less anxious, more steady, and more connected in your relationships.
My approach is warm, direct, and collaborative. Therapy with me is active and engaged. I’m not just sitting back, we’re working together in real time to understand your patterns and try new ways of responding.
Whether you’re adjusting to parenthood, navigating a transition, or wanting to reconnect in your relationship, this is a space to be honest about what’s not working and begin creating something different.

I help adults who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or hard on themselves to feel more steady and self-trusting. I work with depression, anxiety, trauma, and substance use.
