Calvin Fitch

Social interactions and performance situations can feel like landmines for disaster. The social anxiety "monster" tells you everything that is wrong with you and ruins your confidence. I help my clients feel mo empowered in these situations. I help them take the weight out of the anxiety by using research-supported strategies to enable them to dismantle negative internalized beliefs. Navigating life with the social anxiety monster in your ear is tricky. Let's work to rid you of that burden!

Nathan Fanton

People that I have found work best with me are those who are seeking to better understand themselves. "Why am I feeling this way, why am I struggling, who am I, I wish..." These are some of the questions that people who come to me often have. I have special interest in working with Veterans, LGBT expansive individuals, as children who have lived experiences as members of the LGBT or questioning community.

Danya Goodman

I find that any time you get to know someone intimately, it is impossible not to care about them and respect them. My clients are diverse, and often struggle with relationships, identity, and finding a place for themselves in this world.

Dr. Luana Bessa

I help individuals, couples, relationship partners, and adult family members build more confidence and trust in themselves and with others. Clients often begin treatment longing for more connection with themselves, and more effectiveness in their relationships. They may have experienced a chaotic upbringing or relationship traumas in the past, and are frustrated with their history continuing to impact their present. We work toward building increased freedom, meaning, and joy in their lives.

Are you looking for a partner to work with you and help guide you through your healing process? You may find yourself looking for support through a challenging life phase or internal conflict, new or ongoing symptoms of anxiety, depression, or other mental health concerns, or you may be looking to change habits that can be negatively affecting your life. All of these needs can be challenging to face alone, which is why working together in the context of a therapeutic alliance can be so helpful.

Oyenike Balogun-Mwangi

Many of my clients are hungry for genuine, deep, and meaningful relationships and are often motivated to come into therapy because of dissatisfaction or conflict in their salient relationships. While trauma is not always the primary presenting concern, I find that painful past experiences are often the most powerful influences on patterns of coping, relational patterns, and maladaptive ways of coping. I focus on building unrelenting safety and acceptance in the therapeutic space

I often hear from chronically ill people who have been in therapy before, but felt that their therapist “just didn’t get it.” As a person living with health challenges myself, I understand this frustration, and I'm glad that my lived experience helps me provide effective care for people like you. Some conditions I help with include Endometriosis, Lyme, CFS/ME, and Fibromyalgia. Even if you don’t see your illness listed, don’t lose hope! Contact me now and let's get the conversation started.

Meghan Walsh

Have you been wondering where all the anxiety, self doubt and heavy fog come from and how you can feel better? Do you suspect that trauma is holding you back, and wonder what you could accomplish without it? My clients want to understand themselves on a deeper level, discover their purpose, improve their relationships and empower themselves with evidence-based tools for trauma, anxiety, depression, chronic illness and communication. I honor the unique identity of all humans I serve.

Lee Kinsey

Some of my clients are working toward feeling more connected in their relationships. Some are working to heal from traumas of the past. Most are looking for an expert therapist, who having tried multiple therapists, need a more comprehensive, philosophically grounded, deeper, and richer experience of self-exploration and healing. My goal is for my clients to experience a connection they may have never felt that helps them build insight, understanding, and the courage and power to heal and grow.

Julia Wise Kofi

I provide identity-affirming therapy to adults, particularly to those who are queer, trans, neurodivergent, non-monogamous, as well as other marginalized identities. I also enjoy working with those who previously had poor experiences with therapy, first time therapy clients, and those who feel “different.” Together we explore how internalized oppression adds to our suffering. I support clients in unlearning this internalization, tapping into their inner wisdom, and embracing their true selves.

Rachel Stanton

You were sexually assaulted or experienced a disturbing sexual encounter. Now you feel jittery & anxious. Sometimes you have panic attacks. You can’t stop thinking about what happened and try really hard to avoid any reminders of it. You may feel really confused about how to label the experience and wonder if it was partly your fault. You have nightmares, trouble with intimacy, and are concerned you’re now permanently damaged or broken.

Have you ever wanted a drag queen as a therapist? Well you've come to the right place. In my spare time I'm a drag queen from New York, so I'm not afraid to call you out. Don't worry, I won't read you, though a client has said I snatched their wig once. I want sessions to be fun, while also helpful. Once we have a relationship built, I will happily call you out on patterns that I see haven't been working. We will work to have these patterns sashay away.

Cindy Blank-Edelman

You're smart and analytical but you can't seem to analyze your way around your painful feelings. So you end up feeling disconnected from others in your life, unsure about how to communicate and assert yourself, and frustrated that you can't think your way out of your problems. In therapy with me, we will tackle your challenges in new ways, with creativity and humor and emotion. We'll recognize your strengths and appreciate how you have learned to take care of yourself.

Ana Fernandez

Currently offering in-person appointments on Wednesdays, and teletherapy appointments on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays. If you feel out of touch with your own life, if people say that you worry “too much,” if a particular event has taken away your sense of well-being, psychotherapy can be an excellent resource and activator for change. But it takes courage to recognize when your coping strategies are no longer working and to reach out for support.
