Dr. Samantha Kallberg
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
I strive to create a compassionate space where you feel supported that promotes healing and growth. I specialize in working with those struggling with anxiety, binge eating, emotional eating, body image distress, body dysmorphic disorder, OCD, trauma, and life transitions. I do not believe in a one-sized fits all treatment approach, thus an implement several treatment modalities to tailor to the needs of each client. I have specialized training in Internal Family Systems (IFS) as a level one provider.

Psychodynamic
Alexey Tolchinsky
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I apply the principles of affective neuroscience to help high-achieving professionals navigate complex emotional landscapes. As a Clinical Fellow of the Neuropsychoanalysis Association and a researcher, I offer a personalized, comprehensive, and compassionate approach that moves beyond reductive "cookie-cutter" treatments and saccharine AI advice. I focus on deep human connection and clinical accuracy, aiming to help you reach stable results, growth, and emotional freedom. I accept complex cases that other practitioners may find challenging.
I specialize in working with neurodiverse clients from a strength-based, complexity-aware perspective rather than a "disorder" perspective.

Psychodynamic
Asher Lipner
Psychologist, Ph.D., SRT
I believe good therapy is more than symptom management. It’s about helping people understand themselves more honestly, develop greater emotional awareness, and build a life that feels more grounded, connected, and authentic.
Many of the people I work with feel stuck in patterns they don’t fully understand — anxiety, shame, compulsive behaviors, emotional disconnection, relationship struggles, or cycles of secrecy and self-criticism. Often, these struggles are not simply about “bad habits” or lack of willpower, but about deeper emotional and relational dynamics that have never been fully understood or addressed.
My style is warm, direct, thoughtful, and engaged. I aim to create a space where people can speak openly about subjects that are difficult to discuss elsewhere, without feeling judged, dismissed, or reduced to a diagnosis. I believe meaningful therapy requires both compassion and honesty: the ability to understand pain without losing sight of accountability, growth, and change.
I have particular experience helping individuals and couples struggling with compulsive sexual behavior, pornography addiction, betrayal trauma, intimacy difficulties, anxiety, shame, and trauma-related issues. I also work extensively with clients from religious and culturally sensitive communities, where these struggles often carry additional layers of secrecy, fear, and isolation.
Therapy can help people move from surviving on autopilot toward living with greater clarity, presence, integrity, and connection — both to themselves and to the people they care about most.
