David Schaffer, MSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (WV), Licensed Independent Social Worker (OH)
love to help people. I was an economics major as an undergraduate and worked in business for about five years. Each day the question: "What have I done to make the world a better place?" haunted me. Being a therapist gives me the opportunity to do that every day in a very direct way.
I get to see both the huge diversity of human experience and the remarkable commonality we all share. Most of all I get to see the difference that sharing a burden with another person, looking at things in a new way or making small changes in what you do, can make in a person's life.

Megan Noren
Psychologist, Psy.D.
If you are feeling stuck in the same emotional patterns, struggling to adjust to changing circumstances, or finding yourself overwhelmed by the demands of life, therapy can be a place to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and begin to make meaningful changes.
I'm Dr. Megan Noren, a licensed clinical psychologist and the owner of Maitri Therapy Services. My approach is grounded in compassion, curiosity, and the belief that understanding our emotions can help us develop a deeper sense of self and create healthier relationships. I strive to provide a warm, supportive space where you can feel understood without judgment and explore the experiences that have shaped who you are.
I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship concerns, life transitions, and the mental load that can come with balancing competing demands. I have a particular interest in maternal mental health, including perinatal depression and anxiety and the emotional and identity shifts that accompany parenthood. I also welcome clients exploring questions of identity, self-worth, boundaries, and connection.
In our work together, we'll explore the emotions and patterns that may be keeping you stuck, make sense of painful experiences, and identify what you need to feel more grounded and connected. I draw primarily from Emotion-Focused Therapy, with additional approaches tailored to your needs and goals. My hope is to help you develop greater self-compassion, strengthen your relationships, and build the confidence to live in a way that feels more aligned with your values.
Maitri is a Sanskrit word associated with loving-kindness and benevolence. These ideas reflect the heart of my practice: creating space for connection, trust, courage, and compassion as you work toward healing and growth.
You don't have to navigate everything on your own. I invite you to reach out for a free 15-minute consultation so we can connect, discuss what brings you to therapy, and explore whether working together feels like a good fit.

Dr. Ruth Viehoff
Psychologist, PsyD, HSPP
Hello, I'm Dr. Ruth Viehoff, and it's a pleasure to virtually meet you! My practice is geared towards gen Z and millennial clients who struggle with anxiety, worry, perfectionism, and ADHD. My clients are often college students, graduate students, or are early in their careers as high-powered professionals. I have experience working with physicians and other medical professionals, engineers, high-stress business professionals, and lawyers. Often my clients over-schedule, over-optimize, and feel like they are working so hard to keep things in order in their lives. To other people, it may appear that you have it all together, but they don't see your internal struggle, your sense of overwhelm, and your hope that you will finally get a grasp on things tomorrow. Often my clients rely on achievement and external forms of validation and praise to feel like they are doing enough. They struggle to internally approve of themselves and their efforts. In therapy, I help my clients to cultivate self-compassion, re-evaluate and replace unhealthy personal standards, and increase attention to their own internal wants, needs, and opinions. Therapy is an opportunity to cultivate your own internal sense of knowing and increase your sense of agency in your own life. Reach out to me today to book a free consultation call!
