Dr. Paige Hover
Psychologist, PsyD
If you are anxious and/or burnt out and are looking to go beyond fixing a problem or feeling better, I may be the psychologist for you. Think of me as a mental health personal trainer. I can provide some initial relief but also help you get a deeper understanding of yourself. I use a mix of mindfulness based coping skills and provide a form of cognitive behavioral therapy called Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Along with some other approaches, we can work together to help you sustain long-term mental health improvement. I specialize in working with people who identify as perfectionists, high-achievers and people pleasers. I don't accept insurance but superbills can provided for potential OON reimbursement upon request.

Matt McDavid
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, PLLC
Hi, I’m Matt, and I’m glad you found your way here. Everything you’ve already overcome to bring you to this moment, has given you all you need for the journey ahead. This path will lead you to who you were always meant to be. I'm here to provide you with a safe and supportive space where you can express yourself openly and honestly. When you allow yourself to be present with your feelings, you reconnect to your authentic self, opening the door for true joy in your life. You can learn to love yourself unconditionally, cultivate self-compassion, and feel at peace. Our strength-based work together will show you how!
I believe the journey is less about changing yourself and more about letting go of what isn’t true to who you are, unlearning how you’ve been conditioned to see yourself, and recognizing that you’ve been good enough all along. Your story doesn’t have to be ghostwritten by what happened to you. You can become the conscious author of your own life.
Moments of breakdown are also opportunities for breakthroughs. Like rays of light shining through the cracks of a vessel, our experiences of adversity can lead to profound growth and resilience. Together, we can embrace the journey of healing and transformation, finding strength and beauty in the very places where we once felt broken!

Creative Now Therapy, Cris Maria Fort Garcés
Registered Psychotherapist, LCAT, ATR-BC, Gestalt Psychotherapy Certified, Developmental Somatic Psychotherapy Certified, Hakomi Somatic Practitioner
Despite being connected to nature and on a spiritual path, you’re still experiencing shame and extremely negative self-talk or feeling ‘too late’ to pursue your desires. That tyrant in your brain is killing your joy, making you feel alone and overwhelmed. Unresolved trauma has made it difficult to get through a day or be present in your relationships. You painfully over-focus on all the shoulds and wonder if you could lobotomize yourself. You've tried it all, but when you live with untreated trauma, you age but struggle to grow.
I can help you turn that vocal but unhelpful tyrant into fierce inner support. You’ll learn to foster healing by grounding yourself in the present and allowing yourself to safely touch your pain because that's actually your inner gold. The muck is where the magic happens! Book your free 15-minute consultation today with Creative Now Therapy and start living with more ease and joy.

Donna M Torbico - HEAL & GROW for ACoAs
Counselor/Therapist, Recovery Therapist in Private Practice 39 years
FREE INTRO - to see if we're a good fit. My main focus is working with ACAs - adults who were raised in an alcoholic / narcissistic family. The long-term goal is to uncover your True Self, develop a Loving Parent voice, heal the Wounded Child, & encourage the Healthy Child to shine.
Together we identify the harsh beliefs you absorbed from your family, school & religion, and work on transforming them into positive do-able ‘rules’ to live by.
EXP: “I know what I know”, “I have a right to my needs”, “”There’s no such thing as perfect”…..
I also provide a safe place for you to experience painful or joyful emotions you weren't allowed to feel growing up. ACA Recovery work is about facing the reality of early damage, and working to overcome the after-effects.
“Trying to flourish in an atmosphere of criticism is like trying to get sober in a bar.”

Stephanie Davis
Hypnotherapist, Cht
Your mind is just as important as your body, vice versa. What if I told you your subconscious which is 88% of your brain is your body? Hypnosis enhances the mind to body connection, which helps to heal emotional turmoil as well as stress. Hypnosis has been scientifically proven to lower cortisol levels, and boost DHEAS levels directly linked to anti-aging. What I offer is not only a learning experience, but also a means of momentary peace.

Jenna Sackman - Online/Virtual Therapy
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LPC
I specialize in working with individuals (children, teens and adults) and couples, and I am incredibly passionate about the work I do and the people with whom I have the honor to work. My areas of expertise are anxiety / stress, relationship challenges, conflict resolution, intrusive negative thoughts and patterns, loss/grief and depression.
Most clients and couples choose to work with me because they are looking for nontraditional therapy that provides them with concrete skills to improve their everyday lives and/or address specific concerns. Holistic and integrative in my approach, I believe that there is no "one size fits all" in therapy. Therefore, I uniquely tailor therapy sessions to meet each client's needs and goals. With extensive experience and training in results oriented and solutions focused cognitive therapies, positive psychology, mindfulness, Buddhist Psychology, Gottman Method for Couples, meditation, and yoga, I offer creative approaches that result in meaningful change and growth.
Above all, I am committed to creating therapeutic relationships that are built on trust, respect, transparency, empathy, honesty, and equality, and I always counsel from a nonjudgmental place of understanding and compassion.
I am happy to offer a free 15 minute phone consultation to see how I can best support you! Why wait tomorrow when you can start today? Please reach out to schedule your free consultation on my calendar: https://calendly.com/jenna-sackman/phone-consultation
