Ema Grant
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS LPC
I specialize in treating men's mental health, adjustment to change, as well as grief and loss. Typically, my clients are coming to therapy because their life is simply not going how it's supposed to. Something has changed in their life and they can no longer manage their responsibilities and stressors like they used to. Maybe at work, they are lacking motivation or failing to perform. Maybe at home there's a conflict and tension in their relationships. Often, these changes bring out a part of themselves they aren't proud of or comfortable with. Being in this place is hard and scary, and starting therapy feels like a last resort. But often, it's at the end of our rope that we find the skills, insight, and strength we need to build a more fulfilling life and future. My hope is to partner with each client as they develop skills to become more fearless, authentic, resilient, and hopeful.

Gayle MacBride
Psychologist, PhD, LP
Clients work best with someone they trust and feel comfortable with. One of the most consistent pieces of feedback I get is how easy it is to talk with me and they appreciate that I'm "real". I believe that a pinch of empathy and a dash of compassion makes the perfect recipe to provide you an accurate reflection needed to do meaningful therapy work.

Telespera Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor
Does this sound familiar? You’re always pushing yourself to do more, chasing perfection, and going out of your way to make everyone else happy. If that resonates, you might just be an overachieving, perfectionistic people-pleaser.
But let’s be real for a moment. Behind all that drive and ambition, there’s often a hidden struggle. It’s like you’re juggling a million things, projecting success to the world while quietly battling doubts and worries when no one’s looking. It’s exhausting, isn’t it?
And then there’s your past. Sure, you might not call it trauma, but there are moments that still stick with you. They linger, shaping how you approach life and relationships today. You can feel their impact, even if you try to push them aside.
So here’s the big question: Are you reaching the point where it’s all just too much to handle on your own? If so, you don’t have to do it alone. Let’s talk.

Suzanne Sanders
Counselor/Therapist, LAC
I work to approach therapy based on being collaborative and established in openness, trust, honesty and humor. I believe that our work has roots in the relationship and we build together and should build upon your strengths and uniqueness. I find it a privilege for me to be invited to work with my clients as they go through transitions and challenges. I am very passionate about providing a safe, compassionate and non-judgmental space where you can feel supported and understood. My aim is to help you feel empowered, live authentically and freely, thrive in your relationships with yourself and others, and experience healing and change.
I have experience in working with adults and teens struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and loss. Each client receives a unique approach specific to their situation and needs. My therapeutic approach is to integrate a variety of modalities to help you connect with your healthiest self, I utilize evidence-based, trauma-informed, approaches with clients.
Healing can be uncomfortable and challenging, and it is my hope to co-create a space where you can begin to create meaningful and lasting change. Healing hearts, transforming minds, finding balance.

Jo Anna Sena
Marriage and Family Therapist, LAC
Everyone needs care and support. I believe treatment is more successful when there is an openness and a willingness to work together and collaborate. You do not have to know where to begin but if we work together we can help you reach deeper levels of understanding and healing. Whether it is struggling with the stresses of life or life transitions I want you to feel supported and empowered to be bold in living your best life.
I find effective practices that include focusing on the whole person, being present with you and helping you connect to your mind, body and emotions. Though I can assist you in a variety of ways, I find methods such as Gestalt and mindfulness based to be very useful in helping you better connect to yourself and make sense of what you are experiencing.
Life is full of challenges and part of what makes life beautiful is our ability to see beyond the challenges and find the skills to make the human experience worthwhile. I would love to connect with you. I honor the sacred space you invite me into and I hope to build a collaborative partnership with you in a way that you feel the most supported.
