Que Sí. Hablamos Español para servirles bien! I’m Bilingual/ Bi-cultural and have over 25 years of experience. Grateful for my Smith College mentors, my learning via volunteerism in Central America, and mentoring new Therapists. My evidence-based approaches honor intersections of identity and lived experiences unique to each client. Your healing, wellbeing are my priority, and the reason why I chose this second career. Are you ready to take the next step (leave fear, pain, shame, etc, behind) ? It can be a little scary. And you are worth it. We can move at a pace that feels safe, comfortable for you, toward your goal attainment.

Sometimes the parts of our lives that promise the most happiness become sources of anxiety, disappointment, or frustration. As a therapist at Potter Counseling, I aim to create a warm, welcoming space where you can speak openly about these things and be taken seriously. I will invite you to tell your story, to reflect on formative relationships and experiences, and to grow in awareness of current thought patterns, emotions, and behaviors. Together, we will set values-oriented goals, and you will experiment with new skills and ways of thinking to leave you feeling more confident and effective in important roles and relationships.

I offer individual virtual therapy for LGBTQIA+ teens, adults, and caregivers of queer youth. I work with neurocurious and neurocomplex clients exploring or affirming their identity across the gender and sexuality spectrums. My clients are often navigating anxiety, burnout, and relationship tension in a marginalizing and overwhelming world. Many are working to overcome perfectionism, people-pleasing, and emotional dysregulation, while building resilience and self-compassion. I especially enjoy supporting those questioning dominant social narratives (such as poly/ENM) in creating lives that feel authentic, empowered, and fulfilling.

My approach is deeply body- and mind-based, integrating Brainspotting, somatic healing, parts work, narrative therapy, and attachment-based therapy.
You are not broken—you are unfolding. You don’t need to “fix” yourself—you need a space where all parts of you feel seen, understood, and supported. I help individuals untangle deep-seated patterns, wounds, and beliefs that keep them stuck in cycles of self-doubt, overwhelm, and disconnection. In my practice, I focus on helping those experiencing depression, anxiety, stress, burnout, relationship dynamic issues, self-esteem struggles, and life transitions. I am passionate about providing an environment that feels collaborative, welcoming, and supportive—a space where you can heal, learn, and grow at your own pace.

You're the one that holds the room. You’re strong for everyone, but when it’s your turn, your body won't fully let go. Even in the quiet, your system stays "on," carrying a weight that isn't yours. At some point, your system learned that no one was coming, so you had to be the strong, responsible, capable one. That survival wiring now dictates how you make decisions, your relationships, and your work. You’ve mastered the coping skills, but the tension remains. It’s the physiological toll of being the "strong one." I provide somatic healing for professionals ready to stop managing symptoms and start unburdening.

You've been carrying a lot, maybe for a long time. Whether you're a healer, activist, or leader running on empty; navigating identity and belonging; or simply ready to stop circling the same patterns, you are welcome here. I work with adults ready for authentic connection and meaningful change: LGBTQ+ people, people of color, women, and all intersections of these identities. I love working with folks exploring spirituality and spiritual practice, especially those who don't connect with or have been harmed by faith institutions.

My name is Savannah Corey (she/her) and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I utilize a person-centered approach to meet clients where they are, and believe we are the expert in our own lives. Therapy should be a place where you feel really safe to talk about anything, and I believe that the relationship between a therapist and client is a partnership where all people involved strive to reach the same goals. As a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist, I help clients connect thoughts, feelings, or behaviors to "stuck points" in thoughts processes so that negative thoughts can be reframed.

My approach is integrative, drawing from effective treatments (DBT, CBT, attachment-based) to meet your particular needs.
Often, having space to speak difficult words aloud in the presence of another is healing. Other times, it is helpful to have someone join in nonjudgmental problem-solving. Effective therapy addresses our hearts, minds, and bodies. We explore what is going on in your life now, as well as the influences from your past, and, your relationship with the future.
