Megan Bearce

In my online private practice I currently see individuals and couples and I have a few unique specialties: reducing feelings of overwhelm, perfectionism, or burnout and super commuters or road warriors and/or their spouses. I am a LGBTQIA+ ally and use she/her pronouns.

Jen Atherton

Amanda Wirth

As a therapist it is my goal to give you the space, time, and support to overcome the struggles you may be facing. I work hard to help you find your own empowerment to work through the difficulties that life throws your way. I am gentle, yet direct when needed, in therapy. My ideal populations include: anxiety/depression, postpartum moms and dads, infertility, grief/loss, LGBTQPIA+, trans affirming therapy, blended families, couples work, body image/self esteem, self harm/suicidality.

Claudia Wood

I serve 3 main types of clients: 1) This client has believed they've been in the wrong body their whole life. I help them come to terms with their preferred gender and build their confidence to live their life fully. 2) This client was raised in the church and likely has been negatively affected by purity culture. They are realizing how being taught "sex is bad" can be severely impairing. 3) This client is pregnant/a new parent and is freaking out about this little stranger they popped out.

Jesika Austad

You are experiencing feelings of worthlessness and questions about if you deserve love and genuine connection, wondering if anyone would love you if they truly “knew” you. Your experiences of trauma in childhood and/or adulthood are starting to catch up with you. You are struggling in relationships, noticing difficulties with expressing yourself or being understood. You find yourself drawn to partners and friendships that push the same buttons your parents and childhood relationships did.

Rachel Surratt

I work closely with folks that are actively interested in understanding themselves and the others in their lives. Do you struggle with anxiety, trauma, or are having difficulty in your interpersonal relationships? Has your sense of self been rocked by the recent years of hardship and strife? I want to help you carry the load of existing and healing with supportive tools and empathy. All I ask is that you come to therapy with a drive to improve and are ready to take a holistic look at your life!

Sam Anderson

I have immediate openings and respond to all inquires within 24 hours. I specialize in working with individuals that experience depression, anxiety, anger, safety concerns, interpersonal conflict, and difficulty managing stressors. I work with teens / adolescents and adults of any age. Please see my website for more information regarding those that I serve: www.invictuspsychotherapy.com

Dennis Hannon

While my specialties include working with folks living with chronic pain and persistent mental illness, I enjoy supporting people from all walks of life. Whether you're experiencing burnout, depression, anxiety, chronic pain, chronic illness, cancer, trauma, relationships issues, professional issues, or other concerns, my goal is to support you in finding meaning, self-respect, growth, and resilience. I'm passionate about helping you manage stress and create a life you want to live.

Tessa Gittleman

People who think I'm a fit are often high-achieving individuals who find it grating to be so acutely aware of their problem(s) or symptom(s), have tried all the solutions they can think of, and are giving therapy “one last chance.” I successfully get clients “unstuck” by challenging them in new, surprising, and unconventional ways that are intended to push people 20% beyond where they are comfortable (because that’s where the growth happens!).

Samantha Shepherd

While pain is inevitable, I believe that suffering is not. My hope as a therapist is to create a warm and open space for folks to show up as they are and find new ways to cope. I enjoy supporting my clients in deconstructing unhelpful narratives while creating a life aligned with their values. Along with this, I support integrating mindfulness and mind-body practices into session.

Jess Vail

My clients are varied as I have a few non-related specialties. I specialize in reproductive mental health (pregnancy, postpartum, loss and infertility), perfectionistic women, and adults with ADHD. I'm passionate about serving people who feel marginalized in society or live outside the box; LGBTQIA+, those in non-nuclear relationships, gamers/nerds, neurodivergent folks, single parents, and anyone else who has interest or identities that society doesn't affirm/welcome.

Patricia Holdahl

People that come to see me have a variety of concerns. Maybe you have just recently experienced something profound. Maybe you have a long history of intermittent, disturbing or less than pleasant experiences, to say the least. Nevertheless, you are doing the best you can to cope. My clients are seeking long-lasting benefits and a new way to be; both with themselves and with others.

Marguerite Ohrtman

I am passionate about helping clients achieve their goals, build self confidence, and regain control, with a special focus on high-functioning adults working toward greater happiness and fulfillment. Success in our therapeutic process is achieved through an open, authentic, and collaborative counseling relationship.

Taylor Lawson

Therapy to me means leaning in to yourself - your own truth, values, relationships, and goals. And no one should have to do this alone. I support clients in finding their path, getting rid of blocks, and finding the space to enjoy the present moment.

CAROL STRAND

My interests include ADHD, Anxiety, Autism, Depression, supporting members of the LGBTQIA+ community, Gender Exploration and Parent Education. In addition to my listed areas of interest I am also sex and kink positive, a supporter of Health at Every Size (HAES), women transitioning in life and chronic health concerns. I work with children, teens, adults and families. I use art therapy to foster self-esteem, self-awareness and promote insight.

Carolyn Fritz

Carolyn works primarily with adults, and has experience working with chemical dependency, people living with HIV, LGBTQ+ folks, life transitions, people in non-traditional relationship models (such as polyamory and people belonging to kink communities) and mood disorders.

Linnea Logas

If you long for a deeper connection with yourself or your loved ones but feel stuck, unsure of how to find inner-peace due to the deep-seated shackles of shame manifesting as anxiety, body-image issues, or communication and boundary struggles in your relationships, you've come to the right place.
