I work with people who feel disconnected from themselves and unsure whether they can really trust anyone. If you often feel out of control, overwhelmed, or like something must be wrong with you because of how others respond—you’re not alone, and you’re not broken.

Ben Marchman, APC
I help men and adults who feel disconnected or emotionally stuck find their way back to themselves—without pressure, judgment, or pretense. If you’ve been carrying things alone for too long, you don’t have to keep doing it that way.

Kristine Stangle, CMHC-I
It’s easy to lose yourself when you’re always caring for others. If you’re feeling stuck or unsure of what’s next, therapy can be a space to focus on you. When you’re ready, I’m here to walk with you.

Annie Gonzalez, MFT-I
When big emotions or challenging behavior take over at home, it can feel exhausting. I help kids and caregivers understand what’s going on and build more calm, connection, and confidence—without judgment.

Christy Butler, MFT-I
If it’s hard to express yourself or feel connected in your relationships, you might feel stuck or misunderstood. I work with individuals, couples, and families to build confidence, improve communication, and create stronger, more meaningful connections.

Jade Vest, CMHC-I
If your child’s big emotions or challenging behavior feel overwhelming, it can be hard to know what to do next. I help kids and caregivers understand what’s driving the behavior and work toward more calm, connection, and confidence at home—in a space free of judgment.
