I have a number of eight plus years of experience working in preventive services, crisis intervention and providing therapy services.

Hi! I'm Dr. Aleesha Grier-Rogers — a licensed, PSYPACT-authorized clinical psychologist with nearly 20 years of experience supporting adults through complex emotional, medical, and life transitions. I focus on working with women — especially women of color and LGBTQ+ women — navigating three deeply personal journeys: (1) building families through IVF, IUI, donor conception, surrogacy, or adoption; (2) perimenopause and menopause transitions; and (3) physician-assisted weight management via bariatric surgery or GLP-1 medications. I understand that identity and culture don't exist in the background — they shape every layer of these experiences. From navigating bias and dismissal from providers, to managing the expectations of partners and family, to reconciling your own values with the choices you're making, you deserve a space where all of that is seen, named, and held. -The journey through IVF, IUI, and donor conception is extremely challenging — I know firsthand. The uncertainty, isolation, fear, and grief that accompany each cycle, each loss, and each decision can be overwhelming. I help clients navigate the emotional highs and lows, challenge unhelpful thoughts, and strengthen self-trust at every step of their family-building journey. -Perimenopause and menopause are too often met with silence or judgment. I meet clients where they are, offering validation, clarity, and tools to navigate emotional, physical, and relational changes with confidence. -Weight loss/management — even with surgery or GLP-1s — is only half the battle. I help clients manage food noise, triggers, self-criticism, and fear of regain, while reconciling the "new you" in the mirror with the "you" they've carried inside. If you're tired of feeling alone, unseen, or misunderstood — you're in the right place. I help clients build resilience and agency while navigating bias, stigma, and the unique cultural and relational layers these journeys bring — turning frustration into growth, empowerment, and self-trust.

Hi, I’m Vivian Bruno, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I work best with people who are outwardly capable but inwardly overwhelmed. Most of my clients are the ones who 'have it all together' for the rest of the world—the reliable coworkers, the supportive friends, the pillars of the family. But privately, you’re exhausted.

I have a knack for spotting the 'invisible scripts'—the old patterns and systemic pressures—that keep you stuck in these loops. Using a mix of systems-informed and psychodynamic therapy, we’ll look at the big picture of your life to understand the 'why' and, more importantly, build a 'how' for moving forward. Taking the first step is often the hardest part, but you’ve already started by being here. Let’s see if we’re a good fit—reach out to schedule a consultation.

I have spent my career supporting children and families and truly believe that those core relationships are essential to a happy, healthy life.

As a social worker therapist grounded in mindfulness theory, my dream client embodies a spirit of openness and motivation for change. This individual recognizes the challenges that come with personal growth but approaches therapy with a willingness to explore and confront these difficulties. They appreciate the journey of self-discovery and are eager to gain insights that can lead to meaningful transformation in their life. In our sessions, I envision a collaborative environment where they feel safe to express their thoughts and emotions. They understand that progress may not always be linear, yet they remain committed to the process. This client values the therapeutic relationship and seeks guidance to cultivate greater self-awareness, resilience, and mindfulness in their daily life. What I cherish most about this ideal client is their ability to reflect on their experiences and actively engage in their healing journey. They inspire me with their courage to face discomfort and their desire to learn and grow. Together, we would explore various mindfulness practices and therapeutic techniques, fostering a deep connection that empowers them to embrace change with compassion and patience. Ultimately, my dream client is someone who is not only motivated to seek help but also appreciates the support and insight I can offer. In this partnership, we would work hand in hand to navigate the complexities of their experiences, celebrating each step toward a more fulfilled and mindful existence. This collaborative spirit of growth and understanding is what makes the therapeutic journey profoundly rewarding for both of us.

I will let people with whom I worked over the years tell you about me: "Joel focuses on the issues at hand, because he listens very intently. Doesn't get into any psychobabble and provides clear insight to moving forward. Joel encouraged positive takeaways from all sessions." "He s attentive, professional, personable, and kind." "We were able as a family to have Joel's ear as an outside observer. He could extract the most important take away from all that we were working on together and put them into concrete terms. It helped bring clarity and structure to all the things we were trying to do. Having appointments with Joel also helped us to be accountable for the work. Therapy is work. We have to consciously make changes to see the improvements... Joel helped us to stay accountable. " When I came to see Joel I was in a bad place - personally and professionally. I was dealing with unresolved grief and that was impacting my habits and behaviors. After a few short sessions with Joel I started the road back to being the person who I believe myself to be. It has been about 6 months since my first session with Joel - I am now working a good job, I have returned to a hobby that I love and I just completed my first semester of a degree program towards a more rewarding profession (and earned a 4.0 GPA!). Joel helped me realize that I had the ability to determine my own course in life and helped me develop positive habits to achieve my goals." If you want to know more you can visit www.0to10.net.
