Contemplative Psychotherapy
Pleshe Counseling Services
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I truly care about my clients and believe therapy works best when it’s built on trust, honesty, and respect. I’m known for my direct but compassionate approach—I’ll gently encourage you to explore those deeper parts of yourself, because I know that’s where real healing and transformation begin!
I also believe that growth is a lifelong process. I challenge myself both personally and professionally to stay connected to my own growth, knowing that as I continue to learn, I can better support you. My role isn’t to “fix” you, but to help you tap into your inner wisdom and strength, so you can weather life’s storms and reconnect with the wholeness that’s already within you.Like many of my clients, I’ve had moments in my life when I felt lost, vulnerable, and unsure how to move forward. It was through my own journey—especially with Imago Therapy—that I realized lasting change starts within. Healing isn’t about changing everything around us; it’s about tending to what’s inside and learning how to grow, even in difficult seasons!
This work has shown me the beauty of conscious relationships, where we can stand strong as individuals while still growing together. It’s a delicate balance—one I’ve had to learn for myself—and it’s something I’m passionate about helping others find. If you’re ready to tend to your roots and begin your own journey toward healing and connection, I’d be honored to walk alongside you!

Contemplative Psychotherapy
Nancy Hayes-Gary, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, MD , Psy.D.
I have been a psychologist in trauma work for many years, thus I can tailor my approach to meet your needs. Different ages and developmental stages throughout the life span require differing approaches. People generally wait to start therapy until their symptoms are really bothersome. I am currently accepting new patients, with no waiting list.

Contemplative Psychotherapy
Dr. Stéphanie Gamache, PhD
Hypnotherapist, PhD
Something in you knows that what you're carrying runs deeper than the presenting problem.
Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, capable, and outwardly composed-yet internally they live with anxiety, depression, chronic tension or pain, relentless self-criticism, or a sense that something essential is blocked, muted, or just out of reach. These struggles may surface in mood, in the body, in behavior, or in relationships-including sexuality and intimacy-but they are rarely contained to any one area. They tend to reflect deeper emotional and relational patterns formed early in life, often before language, that continue to shape how a person approaches closeness, vulnerability, agency, pleasure, and self-expression.
My work centers on how early experience shapes the capacity for self-regulation, desire, connection, and meaning throughout life-and particularly on how people come to know what they need and want, how they learn to express or inhibit those impulses, and what happens when these capacities become conflicted, constricted, or difficult to sustain.
I integrate psychoanalytic hypnotherapy, somatic awareness, and clinical sexology within a reflective, depth-oriented process. Hypnosis functions as a central clinical tool-creating conditions for deeper internal contact with emotional, bodily, and unconscious experience that can be difficult to reach through conversation alone. The aim is not only relief from symptoms, but the development of a more coherent and compassionate relationship with one's inner life: sensations, emotions, impulses, and desires.
This work is oriented toward lasting psychological change-and toward greater freedom in how one relates to oneself, one's body, and one's capacity for connection, authenticity, and vitality. It is best suited to those ready to move beyond symptom management toward something more fundamental.
