Are you grieving a recent loss? Or struggling to get by for reasons that are hard to pinpoint? I work with clients to identify areas of suffering and bring relief to the whole self.

Counselor, MA, LPCC

Are you living your best life possible? Do you feel trapped in a cycle you can't break? As a counselor, I help people identify and change the unhealthy coping habits that hold them back from living the life they want; I am experienced working with couples struggling in their relationship, challenged with infidelity, or contemplating separation. The counseling process is a journey of self exploration and can result in increased self-awareness and understanding. I believe we all have the ability to change and achieve our goals.
Judy L. Thornhill
Marriage & Family Therapist, LMFT, MS
Verified
Have you experienced neglect or trauma? Is your kid struggling to relate to today's world or your family grappling with arguments? Sometimes these experiences can cause anxiety, depression and body symptoms. I work with young people and adults to feel more joy, increase self esteem and develop the self-compassion needed to heal. We each have unique gifts to share with the world and these can often be drowned out by expectations as we grow up or by others' needs. I am passionate about helping people see and create their own vision of wholeness and happiness, and to hear and express their authentic voice.

Amanda Whitten
Counselor, BA, MA, APCC
Verified
I offer a genuine, non-judgmental, safe space for individuals to explore all areas of their lives they would like support in. I enjoy working with all types of clients and especially those who are goal-oriented, open-minded and motivated to work toward change they want to see in their lives. I begin the therapeutic process with attachment-based interventions by exploring childhood and how it has shaped the personality and views of the individual. While attachment-based methods are a favorite of mine, I do also tailor the methods used based on what I believe is best for the individual to reach their goals.

Fatin Alhadi
Psychologist, PsyD

I will be accepting new clients in September 2022 - Our experiences can lead us to struggle with difficult feelings interfering with how we want to live our lives. We can have difficulty in relationships, feel unsure about who we are or what we want, or feel stuck and find it difficult to move forward. People typically seek out therapy to live a happier, more fulfilled life, or feel better in the relationships they have with others. Therapy can help you develop a better understanding of yourself, understand why you feel how you feel, learn how to cope with difficult or overwhelming feelings, and how to move forward.

Peter Kirchner

I tailor my treatment to the specific needs of each client. I work at establishing a therapeutic alliance so that clients become more able to observe, assess and reflect on their emotions and symptoms, gaining awareness to their true feelings. Results are achieved in a collaberative atmosphere of emotional safety, trust and unconditional acceptance that leads to understanding and healing.
