Christopher Schamber
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
There is a reason why we encounter particular challenges in life. Our experiences feed and deplete our soul, then inform how we respond to ourselves and others. Those events get seared into our brain and set the stage for what we do next. All of our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected, feeding into one another.
I often work with creative and ambitious people living with sadness or anxiety. Thinking big and taking on complex projects is the life blood and identity for many creative people. While others might look on from the outside and comment on how exciting it looks, these endeavors often lend themselves to problems like imposter syndrome, fear of failure, and existential questions.
But you are not your productivity. Through my collaborative approach, we will use therapy to explore your ideas, thoughts, and emotions. Let’s work together to find the you that you want to be, and figure out how to lead a purposeful and fulfilled life in this world.

Daniel Lazar
Marriage and Family Therapist, AMFT, MA, MBA
Anger is tough to manage on your own. It shows up unannounced, can quickly become aggression and rage, and alienates the people we care about most. But it doesn't have to be that way. I will work with you to change your relationship with anger. You'll explore the roots of your anger, build the skills to manage it, and learn strategies for repairing relationships. By the end, you'll have mastered the tools to keep your progress going. It's hard work, and I stand with you, shoulder-to-shoulder, ever step of the way.

Timothy Walker
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Where within you does conflict persist?
Is it in the body, a swirling energy the surges without explanation, keeping you spinning in thought circles and struggling to sleep or relax (ANXIETY)?
Is it in the heart, the whistling emptiness of grief, or the stabbing pain of ruptured relationships, and lost connections (DEPRESSION)?
Is it in the head, thoughts that won’t stop reciting their well worn verses of what-ifs and should-haves (OCD/ADHD)?
Is it in the spirit, an anguish of being, the unknown outnumbering the known to a paralyzing degree, questions of WHY swirling intangible as mist, existential questions, the ground beneath our feet uneven and unsteady (BELIEF/MEANING)?
Is it in all of the above, and in your dreams as well, impacting ability to connect with others, to be still with yourself, to be intimate, to give and receive love, to accept what was, embrace what will be, and surrender to the now (TRAUMA)?

Michelle Parrella
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
As a feminist therapist, I help examine stressors experienced as a result of biases, oppression and discrimination. I love working with folks who want to dig deep into the disconnects they’re experiencing: where stress, anxiety, or overwhelm is causing them to feel out of balance. I will give you the tools to take control of your life and uncover who you truly are, so you can resurface empowered and confident and live authentically.

Peggy Barrett
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, OTR/L
The best gifts you can give, are deeper relationships with yourself and others. When depression, anxiety, trauma or grief interfere with your life, your relationships may suffer internally and externally. If your life seems chaotic or lacks meaning it can be daunting to deal with these on your own. Together we can deal with these challenges. The courage to ask for help and enter into a therapeutic relationship is a powerful first step. It empowers you to discover your essence and begin to find meaning and purpose in your life. It takes courage to ask for help. These are challenging times with this pandemic. I want to create a safe haven for you to express your desires and needs.
I have worked over 30 years in health care with adults who are physically and mentally challenged. I have facilitated groups using SoulCollage® and journaling to help people connect with deeper parts of themselves. My professional and life experiences have allowed me to understand and nurture those gifts that lie deep within each of us. It is these gifts which define your essence and provide meaning to your life.
