Hi, I'm Dr. Alysha! Are you ready to Empower your Mental Health? By creating a safe place for processing and expression, I support persons on their unique healing journey to strengthen authenticity and resiliency. My overall approach uses psychodynamic talk therapy, offering space to those wanting to explore new perspectives, reframes, and change. When we internalize or suppress our emotions and experiences of adversity, we may be faced with lasting emotional trauma that impacts our entire well-being. However there is power in validation and relatability and that is why I utilize a client-centered, strengths-based method, with consideration for relational, intersectional, and social justice contexts. I don’t consider myself an advice giver, but instead, I will collaborate with you to recognize your choices and help you make the best one for yourself. My objective is for you to feel empowered by reducing emotional burdens, developing coping strategies, identifying resources, and enhancing your strengths. You will be treated with respectful, objective, non-biased assistance. I believe that with the right amount of support, guidance, and compassion, our capabilities are endless. **Please note Couples Therapy is Cash Only at $200 per session. Individual cash sessions are $150**

Hey there, I'm Veronika Hoover, LCSW. The foundation of my practice is around getting our mind and our spirit back into our heart and our body and going from there. One of my prior clients told me, "Thank you for walking with me in the dark, and not being afraid of what we will find." Shining a light where darkness once was is a hard thing to do, but when done in a safe place and with support, my hope is that you learn that you are truly worthy of shining brightly and being seen exactly how you are (and falling in love with yourself). My question is: what stops us from doing that?

I am an LPCC with a masters in clinical mental health counseling. I have been practicing therapy since 2019 and started my EMDR journey in 2020.

Hi! My name is Naomi! With over 25 years in the field of psychotherapy, I bring the education, experience, and skills to help you through the issues you're facing. With a vast array of modalities and techniques, I am able to guide you towards health and healing. Although my primary method of therapy is talk therapy, I often assign physical, creative, and educational homework to help advance your progress. I do not work with any one specific group or symptom and would never want to limit my practice to one specialty, so my profile may sound a little different. There are, however, several areas in which I have especially deep expertise and passion: Anxiety, Depression, Divorce, Loss and Grief, Recovery from Addiction, Empty Nest Syndrome, Anger Management, Boundary issues, Trauma, Feelings of Overwhelm, PTSD, Cancer, Aspergers, and Personality Disorders, to name a few. You will find me deeply caring, fully engaged, compassionate, insightful, and an active listener. You will get feedback in every session, and occasionally, I will suggest "homework" to reinforce lessons learned in the sessions. Using a mind-body approach, I am primarily a talk therapist, but additionally integrate techniques that reduce stress "from the bottom up," incorporating DBT (Dialectic Behavioral Therapy) and Polyvagal Exercises. I also practice what I preach and have built a full life with friends and family, gardening, reading, outdoor anything, dance, yoga, swimming, needlepoint, scrapbooking, and hiking. Let's get you back on track, process issues from your past, update the internal narrative, and find a way for you to feel more at peace with yourself, your life and your relationships.

So many of us go through life out of sync with what we truly want and who we are. We say yes when we mean no, avoid rocking the boat, and keep things simple for others—even when it comes at the cost of our own integrity. Over time, we become disconnected, not just from others but from ourselves. Hi, my name is Sienna, and I know this struggle well. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, with a Masters in Counseling, passionate about helping people cultivate deeper, more authentic relationships—with their partners, their communities, and themselves. Through my own journey, education, and professional practice, I have witnessed the ways in which we try to keep ourselves safe by throwing up walls and defenses. Healing isn’t about shutting these parts of ourselves down; it’s about meeting them with curiosity and learning how to move through the world in a way that feels whole, embodied, and aligned.
