In Today's World, we often find ourselves in really complex issues. If you are feeling a bit lost, that’s ok. Struggles with overwhelm, feeling burdened, searching for self and relational complexities are a normal part of living. Navigating Modern Challenges with Compassion and Insight is Key. It is important to have healthy strategies in place and create a way forward. Regardless of the challenges, therapy isn't just about coping; it's about thriving.

Hannah Brumbaum

Often, we're taught to shy away from the uncomfortable: the wounds, the hurt places. We label them as “bad” or “problems”, and do whatever we can to cope, instead of healing that pain. I specialize in working with folks who have experienced trauma, feel they don’t fit into society’s boxes, or seek deeper self-exploration. Together, we reconnect to your body and emotions, break out of old patterns that aren’t serving you, and move into the life you want.

Tamala Poljak

People seek therapy for so many reasons, but mostly we all want to feel loved, safe & understood. We want to feel a sense purpose & feel good enough as we are & yet so many of us struggle to feel these ways. Sometimes our lives look very different than we imagined & we need help making sense out of things. We might be feeling disconnected or numb, uncertain or alone. We might be questioning who we are or the direction we are heading & need to find some clarity, perspective or hope.

Laurie Ebbe-Wheeler

I work with clients to help them better navigate their experiences so that they can feel more authentic and aligned as they move through the world. Societal and cultural pressures affect each of us differently. I practice in a way that acknowledges the impact of systemic oppression and intergenerational trauma on individuals and communities. I know that when you walk into the room, you bring with you experiences I've never had and I believe that you are the expert on your own lived experience.

Liz Michaud

I specialize in helping my clients to build healthier relationships with themselves, inside of themselves. I believe that the most important relationship that you'll ever have is the one you have with yourself. Our relationship with ourselves often influences how we relate to other people, how we make choices and how confident we feel about our ability to achieve our dreams. If you experience anxiety, depression, and/or you have experienced trauma, I encourage you to consider reaching out to me.
