We are all drawn to therapy for a variety of reasons, such as navigating life’s transitions and exploring our interpersonal relationships further. You may be considering how you navigate the world based on your past experiences, while keeping in mind how larger systems impact how we think, feel, and
act
. Our social identities inform how we experience the world - and how the world perceives us.

Rachael Graham
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LMSW

Beginning therapy is a brave and beautiful step. My goal as a therapist is to help my patients utilize their existing internal strengths to navigate difficulties in their lives in ways that promote self-compassion,
acceptance
, and positive change. My clients have diverse lived experiences and backgrounds. As such, I approach my practice with an intersectional perspective, understanding there is no “one size fits all” approach for successful therapy. I enjoy working with a diverse group of patients and have particular interests in depression, anxiety, trauma, eating disorders, relationship issues, and low self-esteem.

acceptance
strategies.
I have extensive training in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), an evidence based approach to treating overwhelming emotions, like anxiety and depression, that can hold us back in life. I work with adolescents, young adults and adults. My practice specializes in treating anxiety, depression, obsessions and compulsions, trauma, and relationship difficulties. My approach is to help you explore and modify behaviors and thought patterns that are hindering your personal growth. I will work with you to develop practical coping strategies you can use to feel better and live your life with more freedom.
Dustin Arnold
Psychologist
Verified
Throughout our lives, we carry within us the voices, the gaze,
acceptance
or disapproval, the expectations, and the praise or criticism of those who have raised us and occupied our lives. Therapy can help us discover and clarify these powerful experiences and grow in our understanding of how they motivate us, giving us freedom to make more authentic decisions in our daily lives. I view therapy as an opportunity to heal, receive support, solve problems, improve relationships, and escape problems and patterns that seem to reappear over time.
Marybeth Dartley
Psychologist, PhD

Most of us, at some point in our lives, feel stuck or face problems that feel overwhelming. Whether you are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, relationships, school/career, loss or health issues, I will work to ease you through this difficult period. Learning to live more fully and take better care of ourselves should be positive, fulfilling and empowering. Using your strengths, my aim is to help you build a healthier, more satisfying life. This may involve changing thoughts, habits and emotional patterns that no longer serve you, while cultivating self-compassion and
acceptance
for those things you cannot change.
Sara R Nichols
Psychologist, PhD
Verified
My training is in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and
Acceptance
and Commitment Therapy (
ACT
).
I employ evidence-based interventions with adolescents and adults who are struggling with worry, depression, identity, and navigating relationships (with themselves and others). Many of my clients are "high functioning" in that they get up each day, go to work or school (or both) and "white knuckle" it through the day. Yet, they also contend with issues like pervasive negative thoughts, overwhelming feelings of anxiety or loneliness, struggles with eating behavior and body image, overcoming trauma and managing difficult relationships. I work with clients to lessen the effects of these struggles on their lives.

Sara Sadek
Psychologist, PsyD
Research based modalities include cbt, ipt, dbt, and
act
, to aid in adaptive and healing responses to emotional pain.
As a clinical psychologist, I believe that knowledge, awareness, and insight are the cornerstones of therapy. By helping increase emotional awareness and identifying their related thoughts and behaviors, I facilitate understanding of causes and triggers for anxiety, depression, and interpersonal conflict. An appreciation of each individual's unique background and encounters is crucial in comprehending how one relates to new information and experiences. I tailor empirically supported treatment to address emotional distress, and believe we are all active participants in our health and wellness. With the correct tools and insight, we can lead emotionally healthy, successful, and meaningful lives.
