Internal Family Systems
Dr. Ashley Gulden
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Life can be challenging, but with support, it can also be beautiful and meaningful. I’m a compassionate, action-oriented licensed psychologist specializing in stress, anxiety, and trauma, with a passion for helping parents/caregivers with their mental health and stressors that come with raising children. I work with individuals and parents to identify beliefs and behaviors that may be holding them back from being the parent they aspire to be and living the life they envision. Together, we’ll set goals, take action, and celebrate your successes. If you’d like to learn more about working together, please reach out—I’m excited to hear from you and look forward to supporting you in this journey of change.

Internal Family Systems
Sara Johnson-Cardona
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Hi! I am a Certified Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapist and am also trained in EMDR and Sensorimotor psychotherapy (L1). My highest value when it comes to providing therapy is you deserve the absolute best quality, and I am dedicated to my own training and consultation in order to provide you with the care you deserve. I am passionate about guiding people towards their own healing, and believe in each individual's capacity to live a life that is most true to themselves and that feels peaceful and balanced. I understand that may sound impossible right now, and all you need to start is the tinest hope that a different way of living and that healing could be possible. People sometimes ask how I can do this job, and repeatedly hear the darkest moments of people's lives, and my answer is simple, I get to see people heal every single day. Being a witness to that is sacred to me and is a tremendous honor. I cannot wait to support you. I have found (and research supports) that online therapy is extremely convenient and effective way of providing therapy, and can actually be less intimidating for many.

Merritt Posten Benz
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSCSW, CDWF, MCLC
I am drawn to raw unfiltered courage. Going to therapy a brave choice and it takes tenacity and grit to feel differently and make changes in our lives. When we deny our stories, they define us. When we own our stories, we become the author who writes the brave new ending. Together we will examine the thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that are holding you back identify the new choices and practices that will move you toward more authentic and wholehearted living. Rarely is that decision a whim or an impulse, and most likely you've been thinking about this for a while. Now here you are; being curious and maybe nervous and scared at the same time. In my opinion - that is bravery and brave things are rarely comfortable, but always worth trying.
Whether you are looking to make a shift in your relationships, provide help and guidance for your children, or you have reached a point in your own life where you no longer want to "figure it out alone"- you have come to a good place to get moving. It can get better.
We all struggle at times - with anxiety, depression, and stress - along with the circumstances in our lives that contribute to these feelings. The "feelings" themselves are never wrong. Where we get into trouble (and can feel stuck in them) is when we can't make sense of it all and isolation creeps in. You're not in this alone.

Allen Wood
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I'm a psychologist with expertise in working with anxiety, depression, dissociation, and the full range of traumatic experiences and specialize in supporting clients who feel that therapy isn't for them. In working with me you can expect a high level of collaboration, dedication to your success, and lots of nerdy metaphors. I draw from interpersonal neurobiology, developmental psychology, and attachment theory to make evidence-based therapy models less generic and more useful for your specific situation.
