Dr. Kaj D. Kayij-Wint, PHD, LMFT - Clinical Director;
AAMFT Approved Supervisor
Accepting: Individuals, Couples, and Family
As a therapist, I believe that life is a journey, with each season bringing its own challenges and opportunities. Along the way, we all need support, and sometimes guidance from a professional can be especially helpful. I am passionate about listening, understanding, and walking alongside you on your journey toward emotional health. My goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore, heal, and grow.
As a clinical supervisor, I am committed to supporting the development of emerging mental health professionals. I provide guidance in a developmental and ethical manner, helping supervisees build confidence, strengthen their skills, and grow in self-efficacy as they work toward licensure.
As a consultant, I work with individuals, agencies, and organizations to identify challenges and create practical, effective solutions. My approach is collaborative, focused on helping clients and partners achieve meaningful results.
Eugene Leung, MA, LPC - Counselor
EMDR Certified Accepting: Individuals and Teens
It's an honor to be able to provide individuals with a space to be authentic, breathe, and process their experiences. I’m passionate about listening to people’s stories and walking alongside them as they find clarity and explore meaningful growth.
I use tailored and effective evidenced-based treatments such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing), CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy), and other therapeutic practices to help clients experience peace, security, and freedom from past wounds. Individuals often seek me for support with issues related to trauma, anxiety, OCD, depression, grief and loss, existential issues, spiritual issues, cultural issues, relationship issues, and habit formation and behavioral changes.
I believe in holistic wellbeing and I aim to equip clients with knowledge, tools, and strategies to establish new rhythms, change, and connection in their lives. Together we'll collaborate to find a plan that serves your needs and goals.
Shelley Maneveld, MA, LPC Res. - Counselor Accepting: Individuals and Teens
Life can sometimes feel heavier than expected. Stress, anxiety, difficult experiences, and major life changes can leave you feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of what to do next. You may be functioning on the outside while struggling internally, wondering how to feel more like yourself again. You do not have to navigate those challenges alone.
Therapy can be a place to slow down, feel heard, and make sense of what you are experiencing. I strive to create a welcoming and supportive environment where you can be honest about what is happening without fear of judgment. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and practical. Together, we will identify your needs, build on your strengths, and develop strategies that support meaningful and lasting change.
I work with individuals experiencing concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship difficulties, family concerns, self-esteem challenges, and life transitions. I recognize that every person brings a unique story, and I tailor therapy to your individual experiences, goals, and stage of life.
Beginning therapy is a personal decision, and reaching out for support can be an important first step. Whether you are seeking help with a specific challenge or simply know that something needs to change, I would be honored to walk alongside you as you work toward greater peace, resilience, growth, and well-being.
Dr. Yolanda Adwoa, PhD - MFT Intern Accepting: Individuals, Teens, Families
I am a compassionate clinician who works with individuals, including children, adolescents, and adults, as well as couples, and families, supporting clients as they navigate emotional, relational, behavioral, and life challenges.
My approach is holistic and collaborative, recognizing that every client brings a unique set of strengths, experiences, and goals to therapy. Whether you are an individual seeking support for a specific mental health concern, working through relationship or family difficulties, a child or teenager navigating emotional challenges, or simply feeling overwhelmed by the demands of life, I provide a supportive space to develop healthier patterns and meaningful change.
I understand that mental and physical health are deeply connected to the relationships and environments in which we live. My background in Health Psychology allows me to consider the whole person, mind, body, relationships, and environment, while my systemic perspective helps me understand how individual concerns can affect and be affected by family, personal, and professional relationships. I believes that meaningful change is possible when clients feel understood, supported, and empowered in the therapeutic process.
I also work with individuals, couples, and families navigating chronic health conditions, disability, autism, caregiving stress, family transitions, and the emotional impact of managing ongoing medical or behavioral health needs.
My goal is to help clients build resilience, strengthen relationships, improve well-being, and develop practical strategies for navigating life's challenges.
Tia Felton, MA, LPC Res. - Counselor Not accepting new clients
I have a heart for helping individuals, couples, and families live with greater clarity, resilience, and hope. I offer client-centered, trauma-informed, and evidence-based care, with particular attention to emotion-focused work and goal-oriented change.
I work with clients navigating concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship conflict, life transitions, identity development, faith-based struggles, and generational patterns of mental health challenges. I believe everyone deserves a safe and supportive space where they feel heard, understood, and empowered through nonjudgmental collaboration.
My therapeutic approach draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and family systems frameworks to support healing from past experiences while equipping clients with practical tools for meaningful change. When invited by the client, I also integrate faith-based perspectives, recognizing that spirituality can be a powerful source of strength and grounding. I deeply respect each client’s individuality, beliefs, and values, and tailor therapy accordingly.
I view growth and healing as a collaborative process and enjoy helping clients identify their strengths, clarify goals, and create sustainable pathways forward. Whether you are seeking support for day-to-day coping or deeper healing from emotional and relational wounds, I am honored to walk alongside you on your journey toward restoration and wholeness.
Natalia Iverson, MA, LMFT Res. - Therapist Accepting: Individuals, Couples, Families
I help couples reconnect, rebuild trust, and restore emotional intimacy by creating a safe and supportive space where both partners feel seen, heard, and understood. I work with couples to slow down reactive cycles, identify underlying emotional needs, and develop healthier ways of expressing vulnerability, needs, and boundaries. Together, we focus on repairing emotional ruptures and strengthening the bond that brought you together.
My therapeutic approach is grounded in the Satir Model, which emphasizes authenticity, emotional awareness, and growth through meaningful connection. I integrate Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and a biopsychosocial framework to help couples explore how emotions, attachment needs, personal history, and life context shape relationship patterns. This process allows partners to better understand not only each other, but also themselves within the relationship.
I also draw from the Gottman Method to strengthen communication, rebuild trust, and foster secure, lasting bonds. My work is compassionate, culturally responsive, and tailored to each couple’s unique story, values, and goals. Ultimately, I help partners move from cycles of disconnection and conflict toward emotional safety, mutual understanding, and deeper, more resilient intimacy.
