Dr. Kelly Smith
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I am here for the person who has seen and experienced events that are "not average" or healthy. Events that you cannot just “forget.”
In my life journey, I gained a lasting respect for the profession of healing and wanted to pass that same healing along to others. I worked hard to become a compassionate, understanding, and experienced psychologist. I have a wide range of skills and techniques that I use to help my clients heal, grow, and change. Change and growth are hard, but it is one of the most worthwhile experiences you can engage in.
I help people who want to change and grow, learn the skills to do so
Are you struggling with sleeplessness, having dreams of being there again, always trying to get your brain to shut down so you can relax, feeling shame, guilt, anger, and numbness? Are you having images just push their way into your brain reminding you of that thing, those people, that feeling? Do they teach you how to do your job, but not how to deal with the consequences? You are fine when surrounded by others who understand, but when you have to go home or lose that comradery... You feel inadequate, a disappointment, or a burden because you cannot explain to your family why you are not there for them or why you are so worried or angry about certain things.
Once you accept how much control you really can have in your recovery...and take responsibility to learn the tools... you can turn things around. You can do things that you want to do rather than accept that you are going to be damaged and struggle with certain things. You can connect with your family again and be happy. You can sleep soundly and think clearly.

Regina Lazarovich
Psychologist, PhD
If you’re tired of fear, anxiety, and insecurity running your life, I can help you take charge! I can help with anxiety, panic attacks, phobias, OCD, binge eating, emotional eating, negative body image, and perfectionism.
I create a safe and non-judgmental space where you can be yourself. My style is attentive, compassionate, and encouraging. Together, we'll understand how fear and self-judgment are getting in the way of the life you want. I'll equip you with tools to change unhelpful patterns of thought and behavior. As a result of our work together, you'll cultivate more peace, confidence, and joy.
I’ve helped hundreds of clients over the past fifteen years. I'm skilled in several evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Inference-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (I-CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC), Health at Every Size (HAES), and Intuitive Eating. I’ll tailor these approaches to your unique circumstances and needs. Together, we’ll set goals, and I will create a treatment plan to help you reach them. I'll help you take small steps to make positive changes in your life and support you every step of the way!

Whether you are encountering challenges in your relationship or dealing with anxiety, stress, or depression – there is still hope. We can work together. You don’t have to encounter it alone.

Russell Wilkie
Marriage and Family Therapist, MFT
Beginning March of 2025 I will exclusively be providing online therapy (tele-health) using video technology. Over the past 30 years I have specialized in helping marginalized people heal, evolve, and find their tribe. I’ve spent deep and significant time with: LGBTQIA+, polyamory, sexual kink and sex therapy, and existential depth therapy. I am solution focused, very practical and direct, while also providing deep empathy and understanding. I prefer massive behavior change and strategies over digging into our deep, dark, past issues — we can always figure out the reason for our struggles later.
