I work with clients who recognize the importance of their mental and emotional well-being and are motivated to actively engage in the therapeutic process. They may experience challenges such as anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or life transitions. They seek a safe and non-judgmental space to explore their emotions, gain insight into their thoughts and behaviors, and develop healthier coping mechanisms. Their goals include finding inner peace, enhancing self-awareness, improving relationships, and fostering personal growth. They desire to overcome obstacles, cultivate resilience, and create a fulfilling and meaningful life.

Feel the depth of grief and grandeur. Existentialism is your path toward envisioning less stress and more fulfilling relationships to maximize your inner visionary. You are homesick, for yourself and for a world that feels out of reach. Let's long and find it together.
Our therapy is rooted in co-creation, reflection, and a relational process that helps you explore where you are and where you want to be. You are in a continual process of seeking, evolving, and experimenting with different ways of Being. Life is both precious and precarious. We will explore your grand visions for what the lattice of meaning is for you.

Gail Holler-Kennedy, LMHC. I believe the therapeutic relationship and comfort is of utmost importance. I have an easygoing personality and incorporate humor when appropriate.

Therapy has the ability to create a new perspective. Maybe what you've tried so far hasn't worked and you realize now that you can't do this all on your own. That's ok, in fact, it's completely normal. Life changes around us. Obligations stretch us between caring for ourselves and others, losses and even wins can make us feel exhausted. Life throws us things that derail us. When this happens, all we can do is pause, take a deep breath and just start from where we are.

As a psychodynamic therapist, I hold that exploring our motivations, inner conflicts and personal histories in a safe context can mobilize greater self-awareness, flexibility, and changes to problematic or painful modes of relating to ourselves and to others. I aim to foster a collaborative and responsive therapeutic environment informed by the specific needs and goals of each of my patients. I take a strengths-based approach and work to scaffold and reinforce the resources that each client brings with them.

Many of the people I work with are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or the lingering impact of loss. Often, they’ve tried therapy before or have worked hard to manage things on their own, but keep finding themselves stuck in familiar patterns.
In our sessions, we’ll explore how your emotions, thoughts, and relationships have been shaped over time, and what it feels like to try something new.
Therapy becomes more than conversation—it’s a space to experiment, take risks, and to gradually shift the way you relate to yourself and others.

I am a psychotherapist in private practice for over twenty years. I treat families, adolescents and adults, especially those seeking help with depression, eating problems, trauma, anxiety, relationship problems, low self-esteem, LGBTQ issues, career decisions, cult involvement and feelings of isolation.

I use varied approaches in my practice, such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to treat trauma victims and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples.

Hi, I'm Becca! I’m so glad you’re here.
