Regardless of how we approach therapy together, nothing surpasses the importance of safety, comfort, trust, security, and vulnerability. My role is to guide and support you without any fluff. Feedback is crucial; if something isn't effective, we'll collaborate to find a better approach. You already possess self-awareness; our aim is to unlock your potential. Though therapy can be challenging, we'll embrace discomfort and even find moments of enjoyment. My objective is to empower you to live a fulfilling life. Together, we'll explore every aspect, leaving no stone unturned. In my free time, I enjoy video games, nature, reality TV, spending time with loved ones, and my cat Charlie.

I am a human first, and a therapist second. I believe in the power of positive psychology, encouraging you to uncover and cultivate your character strengths in addition to overcoming mental health obstacles. Fundamental to this practice is shifting recurrent, unproductive negative mindsets to a more positive outlook that enhances your quality of life in a realistic manner. I am passionate about music and making playlists for different occasions, especially to help others discover underground artists. I love going to concerts and working out. When I’m not devouring books about positive psychology, I enjoy reading contemporary sci-fi and playing video games. A quote I live by is "Survival is insufficient."

I strive to foster the mindset of “observe, not absorb.” Our feelings, thoughts, and experiences are parts of us, but not our entire self. When parts of us feel uncomfortable, it often feels overwhelming to acknowledge them. I desire for you to observe your various parts from a place of compassion and acceptance. I think of the therapy process like soil, where you can plant your seeds; through nurturance and patience, I can help you blossom in various areas of your life. Together, we can pull the weeds, water the garden, and shine light and warmth in the growing process. Outside of the therapy, I enjoy yoga, art, nature, and spending time with my cats.

LIZ CARSON

People often say that “kids [and teens] are resilient,” but I understand that resilience is not always a guarantee. My goal is to meet my clients where they are, work with them to recognize their strengths, and support them on their path to resilience and post-traumatic growth. I am committed to ensuring clients feel safe, understood, and accepted for who they are (and for who they’re not!). For those who do not think of themselves as "talkers," I like to incorporate creative techniques into my therapeutic approach. Outside of therapy, you’ll find me cooking, spending time outside, or art journaling.

SHEQUITA CAMPBELL

I truly believe that healing is an ongoing process of discovering YOU, embracing YOU, and daring to re-introduce yourself to a world that is unfamiliar with the “new” you. Wherever you are in your journey of discovering your identity, it is valid and absolutely fluid, and I am happy to meet you exactly where you are. My therapeutic style centers around creating a safe and authentic relationship. I will ask you to explore your strengths, your childhood experiences, and your inner guide to reach the goals you want to achieve. You can expect honest conversations that emphasize self-determination to empower you to reach your desired self. When I am away from the office I love listening to a wide range of music, cuddling with my two fur babies, and finding a river or lake to go fishing.

KATIE BARILLAS

My deepest conviction is that every single person deserves to have a safe space to process their experiences and feelings without judgment. Unfortunately, our loved ones cannot always provide those spaces and we might not feel capable of safety within ourselves, yet. That’s where I come in! When we have lived for a long time in a difficult place, positive emotions can feel foreign and uncomfortable. I would love to help clear out what hasn’t been working for you in order to create room for new patterns of well-being. My ultimate goal is to support you with acceptance and understanding as you practice giving yourself the permission to lean into joy and ease. Some ways I like to personally recharge when I’m out of the office include taking long walks with friends, playing with my kids at the park, driving around with my music up loud, and daydreaming about future vacations!

DIONE HUNTER

When you think of the phrase “Keeping it real.” I want you to see my face. This is what I live by everyday. I desire to create a REAL space for you to be yourself, get a breakthrough, and to make the best decisions for you. We all have our challenges and changes; just know that I am here for and with you. To me LIFE stands for Living In Freedom Everyday and I fully intend on helping you find that freedom, regardless of how the process looks. When I’m not working, I love spending traveling the world with my family. I am intentional about my self care, healthy eating/physical lifestyle, and I love the beach (so very much! Lol). The core of me thrives with God being the head of my life and my tribe (family, friends, and those who make me a better person).

JUSTIN HO

My role is to create a space where you can feel safe, confident and free to be yourself. Counseling can be a scary and daunting endeavor, but I hope to make the process as comfortable and inviting as possible. My approach to therapy is centered on you and who you are. You are the ultimate expert on yourself. Together, we will work toward setting your goals and creating long-lasting change to get to where you want to be. Personally, I enjoy traveling, catching up on the latest TV shows and movies or following sports. More often than not, you’ll probably find me scrolling through Netflix or planning my next adventure!

BRITTANY MCGRADY

I’m proud of you for taking this first step! Now that you’re here, we will work collaboratively to identify your social/emotional needs, implement tools that will help you better manage your thoughts and emotions and strive to make positive decisions. You’re safe to be your true and authentic self. Your journey to peace and understanding will happen by consistently utilizing the tools learned in sessions, patience and time. Some fun facts about me are that I love line dancing, hiking, traveling and music (preferably Hip Hop, R&B and Gospel).

SYDNEY CHRISTIAN

One of the most common phrases I say in therapy is "“Healing is not linear.” It is so important to invite grace and acceptance to the therapeutic environment. This may mean you have to allow yourself to feel vulnerable in the therapy space while processing, learning, and growing. My desire is to foster a space that allows just that through empathy, honesty, and without judgment. No matter what, I aim to meet you where you are. A few fun facts about me are that I love to watch TV and learn new things. I am also rebooting my love for reading.

JULIANNA ROBINSON

Even though we can be mired in the depths of suffering, I believe we are bestowed with life-giving hope, healing and resiliency that can bud and grow through the therapeutic process. I will walk with you as you are surmounting the suffering and begin to experience a fulfilling life of recovery and restoration. You are worthy of freedom and wholeness. As a therapist, I demonstrate a gentle and empathetic connection with clients and understand that each client has individual needs and goals. When I’m not in the office, I’m hanging out with my sweet little doodle, exploring outdoors and hiking, or reading a novel with a warm mug of coffee.

CONNOR LINEY

I strive to create a space where my clients not only feel comfortable being their authentic selves, but a space they actually enjoy coming to. My goal is to create a strong relationship with you so we can work through the tough stuff while leaving space for humor. Life can be hard, so I want to provide you with a place where you are free to be your true self without fear of judgement. My communication style is direct because I don’t believe in sugar coating things (unless it is cookies)! When you’re ready, I will gently guide you outside of your comfort zone to face and overcome whatever is holding you back. Outside of the office, you can find me playing volleyball, hanging out with friends or family, playing video games, learning about a new culture, or sleeping.

Sarah Erdman

There will be curveballs thrown your way in every stage of life. It is my goal to remind you of your strength and resilience in a way that empowers you to face those difficult times head on, and with the support you need. Beginning therapy is a brave step in your journey, and I look forward to celebrating your victories along the way. I am an eclectic clinician who enjoys incorporating creativity into therapy through art, play, humor, music, and other expressive techniques. You can expect therapy with me to be open, genuine, and real. Outside of the therapeutic space, you can find me in the kitchen, experimenting with new recipes, spending quality time with loved ones, and loving on every dog I see.

BEN HEATH

While finding a therapist can be a stressful task, I believe my job is to make the new connection as smooth as possible. My style is relaxed and comfortable. You can expect to receive support and encouragement, along with being challenged to try new things and see yourself and the world in a different way.  My hope is for you to feel seen, heard, and accepted without judgment as we pursue the growth and progress that you desire. When I’m off the clock, I am most likely at the park with my dog, Gertrude, or trying out a new recipe in the kitchen.

Katherine Penuela

Things can get hard at times, but you do not have to face it alone. I work side by side with my clients so they may reconnect with their essence and explore new possibilities along the journey of growth. I believe in the importance of uncovering strengths and underlying challenges to promote change. Through curiosity and genuine exploration, together we will walk through this journey to a more fulfilling life. When I am not at the office, you can catch me at the park enjoying nature or at a dance studio releasing energy to Latin rhythms. 

Jamie Hall

I believe that true change occurs when a person challenges their discomfort and confronts it with honesty, personal reflection, and acceptance that you are exactly where you are supposed to be. I believe that we are all entitled to the pursuit of happiness, but that pursuit takes hard work! So if you're ready to work hard, explore your authentic self, and take massive action, consider working with me because I promise to always show up. When I’m not at the office, you can usually find me somewhere outside (or Home Depot). My self-care rituals include hiking the trails with my husband and Great Dane, Apollo, gardening, puzzling, and listening to true crime podcasts.

Daron Elam

I love to invite my clients into a space where they can explore their most authentic self. My therapeutic tone is largely holistic by observing the mind, body and spirit as they function together to achieve lasting change. I hope to create opportunities for learning and personal development that spark introspection and meaningful connection. I truly believe that peace comes in the ability to let go of what you can't control. I'm a business owner, a loving partner and mother {of Dragons}. I enjoy a good balance of running, yoga, meditation and rest. I enjoy traveling to new places, engaging with my spiritual practices and conjuring new recipes for the people I love most.

MICHAEL vENEZIA

My approach to therapy is to do whatever is best for that person. At the end of the day, people do best when they are heard, can go at their own pace, and be themselves on their way to finding some relief or reach their goals. My job is to help in whatever capacity I can and use any approach I know how to help you get where you want to go. Sometimes that means my job is to support and validate, and at other times challenge and encourage you to try new things. However, we can find a way to get there. In my free time, I am usually binge watching some tv show, playing any sport I can, and looking for something new to try.
