I believe that the greatest source of suffering is trying to avoid feeling feelings. Together, we can demonstrate that you are capable of tolerating sadness, anxiety, anger, guilt and shame.

Nicole Fontenot, LMSW
Therapy is a powerful way to fulfill your potential to live a deeply satisfying life. My strengths-based approach is inclusive, empathetic, and grounded in evidence-based practice. I aim to create a compassionate and judgment-free space where your goals and desires are central to our work together.
I believe therapy should be a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. My goal is to ensure you feel valued, heard, and supported through life’s challenges—no matter the circumstances.
Cheyenne Lewis, LMSW
I am a dedicated therapist who prioritizes creating a safe, comfortable, and judgment-free environment. I want each client to feel they can speak openly and honestly about their experiences, feelings, and challenges.
Carrie Pollack, LMSW
Mariam Rahyab, LCSW
My approach is grounded in cognitive-behavioral therapy and other research-supported treatments that help people build skills, shift unhelpful patterns, and feel more in control of their day-to-day lives.
Using a collaborative approach, I walk alongside clients as they heal from painful experiences, empowering them to write the next chapter of their life. Even in life’s most challenging moments, every individual has the capacity to heal and grow.
Shauna Rychcik, LMSW
The foundation of my therapeutic approach is the science of modern psychology. From that foundation, I draw on my experiences over the years to provide a personalized therapeutic experience aimed at producing real results in my clients’ lives. Meaningful change is possible!
Travis Tanner, LCSW
I believe therapy should be both compassionate and practical. My approach is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and guided by empathy and pragmatism. I aim to help clients recognize their strengths, challenge unhelpful thought patterns, and build strategies that feel realistic and sustainable.
Elaine Wang, Graduate Student Therapist
By supporting you to develop coping skills and foster a more positive sense of self-worth, I want to encourage you to move confidently toward your goals. I employ a multi-disciplinary approach that includes DBT and CBT techniques. My therapeutic style is collaborative, authentic, and compassionate.
