Humble Steps Psychotherapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW, APHSW-C
I often hear from clients and colleagues that my love for this work is palpable. This passion grew from my roots in Hospice and Palliative Care, where I considered it a profound privilege to be invited into the most intimate moments of a person's life. While tending to patients, I noticed that physical symptoms like insomnia, chronic pain, and fatigue often persisted despite medication. This sent me down a path of deep research into the link between traumatic experiences and physical suffering, ultimately leading me to specialize in EMDR, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, and AEDP.
Because of this background, it is imperative for me to tend to the entirety of a person. I believe that being safely seen and felt by another, releasing traumatic burdens from the mind, and reclaiming the body are all integral to thriving. This is a journey I join alongside you, rooted in deep respect for the tenacity of the human spirit.

Dr. Max Hurley-Dorof
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I am a licensed clinical psychologist providing individual, couples, family, and group psychotherapy through secure telehealth. My style is warm, collaborative, and engaged. I work to create a space where clients can speak openly, feel understood, and examine difficult experiences without judgment.
My work is grounded in psychodynamic and relational therapy, which means that we pay attention to the experiences and relationship patterns shaping your present life. I also incorporate practical strategies from other approaches when they can help.

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

Ashika Dickerson
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC
At On Mental Health Matters, I believe that exceptional mental health care is built on trust, compassion, and individualized treatment. My goal is to create a welcoming, judgment-free environment where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to take meaningful steps toward lasting emotional wellness.
I'm passionate about caring for the whole person, and I understand how daunting seeking mental healthcare can be. With more than 25 years of healthcare experience and advanced training as a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I provide evidence-based medication management and supportive psychotherapy tailored to your unique needs. Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all approach, I take the time to understand your story, identify the root causes of your symptoms, and develop a treatment plan that aligns with your goals, values, and lifestyle.
