Dr. Joe Rustum
Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
Are you a high achiever that is overwhelmed and burnt out? Are you upset at not meeting your goals and expectations? Do you constantly struggle with managing your work-life balance? People might think that you have it all together, but on the inside, you are critical of yourself and disappointed. You also might lack confidence and often find yourself second guessing you decisions. I commonly see high achievers and executives that are afraid of criticism, feel like imposters, and worry about upsetting others.

Allison Freeman
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHCA
I specialize in helping high-achievers, perfectionists, and people-pleasers who are feeling stuck in life by guiding them to discover what's not working and how to find more fulfillment in life, work, and relationships. I find fulfillment in supporting high-achieving professional women and parents who grapple with overwhelm, exhaustion, and burnout in daily life become unstuck. In therapy sessions, I integrate a blend of techniques rooted in Coherence Therapy, which includes parts work and 'bottom-up' therapy, alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). This dual approach enables me to explore with my clients both deep-seated issues that may have developed in childhood and are still at play in ways they may not realize as well as current unmet core needs. By employing these methods, we can access a range of strategies tailored to assist each client in overcoming the challenges brought to each session.

Ameenah Ikram
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Hi, I’m Dr. Ameenah Ikram, and I’m a clinical psychologist dedicated to helping people heal, grow, and live in alignment with their values. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process where we work together to explore your experiences, emotions, and challenges. My goal is to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel comfortable sharing your story and finding new ways to move forward.
I use evidence-based approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Time-Limited Dynamic Psychotherapy (TLDP) to help you process your emotions, shift unhelpful patterns, and develop skills for managing life’s difficulties. I especially enjoy working with individuals who may be navigating relationship challenges, emotional struggles, or identity issues. I’m also passionate about women’s health and work closely with women experiencing perinatal mood disorders, reproductive health concerns, and trauma related to pregnancy or birth.
I understand that each person’s journey is unique, and I value the opportunity to tailor therapy to fit your individual needs. I approach therapy with cultural humility and a deep respect for your background, recognizing the impact of systemic oppression and multicultural issues. Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back, process past traumas, and find ways to build the life you want.
My approach is warm, compassionate, and collaborative. I believe that you are the expert in your life, and my role is to support you in discovering the tools and insights that will help you live more fully. Let’s work together to help you feel more empowered, more connected, and more hopeful about your future.
