Amy L. Holdbrooks, LLC
Counselor/Therapist, MA, NCC, ALC, BSW
Many believe expressing your feelings is a sign of weakness, creating a stigma surrounding mental health. However, the exact opposite is true! Knowing when to ask for help shows courage, strength, and wisdom. Physical and emotional health are tightly intertwined. When we know precisely what is wrong, we can face the problem head-on, allowing us to see firsthand that knowledge is power!
I was first introduced to depression and anxiety through a wiry, slightly rumpled, highly cantankerous psychology professor when I was only 19 years old. I will never forget that lecture as long as I live. As he presented the 'day’s topic,' he peered intently around the room as if he could read our very thoughts. Then, he threw down his book and left the room without warning, leaving us there in stunned silence. After what seemed like an hour (probably only five minutes), he returned with 25 lb. weights strapped to each arm and leg and a pack filled with two 50 lbs. fastened to his back. As he began to lecture, he proceeded to pace up and down each row of the classroom. He was not a young man, and as he talked, he became winded and was forced to stop and catch his breath. He was an excellent orator, by history, but on this day, he seemed entirely out of his comfort zone. He was confused, preoccupied, stressed, and somewhat fragile. As the class concluded and we began to slowly make our way to the door, the professor said, “Oh, and by the way, living with depression and anxiety is much like trying to do a simple daily task with over 200 lbs. of weight strapped to your very soul. Now, go and have a good evening.”
Having struggled with depression and anxiety throughout my adult life, and now as a counselor, I will have to say that the professor’s illustration was prophetically spot on! In fact, it was brilliant!

Anna DiNoto
Psychologist, PsyD, LMHC, PSYPACT - Licensed Psychologist
While many view mental health assessment and treatment as a way to identify a diagnosis someone else (i.e., a psychologist) assigns, we view it as an engaging and empowering process. A diagnosis may be met, and if this is true our hope is you will have words to understand who you are, how your brain (and body) sees and interacts with the world, and what you could potentially do about it based on honoring your input.

Ilana Lane
Psychologist, Ph.D., therapy for anxious overachievers
Are you an overachiever who is feeling anxious, burned out, stressed, and/or just generally "out of alignment"? Is this impacting your ability to show up in your various life roles (whether that be as parent, employee, caregiver, etc.) in the ways that you'd like? I am passionate about working with adults who are feeling overwhelmed by juggling life's various roles and are looking to get back into alignment with what matters most to them. Together, my clients and I work on identifying their priorities and values, addressing what's been getting in the way, and implementing concrete skills and tools to get them feeling back to themselves. I only implement psychological approaches that have been proven to work, while also having a treatment approach that is highly individualized and holistic - rather than viewing you as a diagnosis, I recognize that you are a unique person with your own unique goals, dreams, and values, and my goal is to partner with you as you move closer and closer to living a life that is in alignment with those things that matter most to you. As a psychologist who is authorized under PSYPACT, I am able to provide Telehealth services to clients in over 40 states. If you are interested in seeing if we might be a good fit, please feel free to reach out to schedule a free initial 15-minute consultation call.

Dr. Kimberlyann Marsden
Psychologist
Sometimes life can be overwhelming and you may want to make changes but not know how. You may even have tried different things but nothing has worked consistently or enabled you to live the life you envision for yourself. I work with teens, young adults and adults many who seek therapy to address anxiety, depression, trauma and life transitions. I also work with with athletes and high performing executives to enhance performance, vitality and overall well-being.
My journey has included being a collegiate Academic and Athletic All-American Swimmer, psychologist, teacher, parent, and coach. I've spent over 25 years studying and practicing psychology and holistic healing including: energy medicine, healing arts, Reiki, meditation, and astrology. I take all of that and customize treatment to facilitate your well-being. We look at where you are in life right now in comparison to where you want to be and I help empower you on your journey to mindfully creating the life you desire.
