David Schaffer, MSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (WV), Licensed Independent Social Worker (OH)
love to help people. I was an economics major as an undergraduate and worked in business for about five years. Each day the question: "What have I done to make the world a better place?" haunted me. Being a therapist gives me the opportunity to do that every day in a very direct way.
I get to see both the huge diversity of human experience and the remarkable commonality we all share. Most of all I get to see the difference that sharing a burden with another person, looking at things in a new way or making small changes in what you do, can make in a person's life.

Dr. Sheena Sikorski
Psychologist, PsyD, Licensed Psychologist
Do you constantly feel like you're never good enough? Do you feel like you compare yourself to other people and think they're so much better looking or smarter than you? Do you feel like you have to wear a mask and pretend you're someone you're not just to get people to like you, not leave you, or reject you? If you said 'yes' to any or all of these questions, you've come to the right place. These are common signs of perfectionism and people-pleasing, my specialty! If you're ready to roll up your sleeves and put in the work to find and use your voice to share your opinions and needs, feel safe being vulnerable to deepen your emotional connections, and learn how to compassionately hold yourself accountable when you make a mistake, this CAN be your reality with the scientifically based tools you'll learn working with me as your guide. To learn more about working together, reach out by sending me a message through my profile on here. I'm excited to hear from you!

Kayla Jarred
Psychologist, PsyD
As a psychologist, I am deeply committed to providing empathetic and person-centered care that fosters growth, self-discovery, and personal development. I believe that every individual has a unique story, and my role is to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where people can explore their emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. Through this process, I aim to help individuals better understand themselves and develop tools to navigate life's challenges with resilience and self-compassion.
My values as a therapist encompass compassion and respect, with a deep commitment to personal growth. I approach each therapeutic relationship with the belief that people have an inherent capacity for growth. My role is to support clients in unlocking their potential, helping them explore their values, identify their strengths, and make decisions that help them progress on personal goals. Utilizing a variety of techniques, I view therapy as a collaborative process, adapting to your needs and desired goals in therapy.
Ultimately, my goal is to support individuals encountering concerns related to depression, anxiety, anger, trauma/stress, emotional dysregulation, and other general concerns a person may encounter. I teach skills from ACT, DBT, CBT, CPT, and other evidenced based therapy techniques to give you the opportunity for customized skill building for your specific concerns.
