We are an online counseling group therapy practice where you can receive the mental health treatment you deserve from your comfy surroundings! We offer phone and video counseling, on your time.

*Exclusively online therapy sessions.* Are you adjusting to or do you anticipate a big life transition and it's causing you anxiety? Does school stress have you feeling overwhelmed? Maybe you are having difficulty connecting socially or you're feeling conflicted about how to approach a current relationship struggle and it's keeping you up at night with worry. Or do you have some negative experiences from the past that just keep you feeling stuck? I understand the struggles in finding a therapist who understands. You don't have to figure it out on your own or stay "stuck in your head" anymore. Within a safe therapeutic environment individuals have the possibility to connect experiences with emotions, learn healthy communication skills, and develop tools for managing life's challenges. I strive to help clients find empowerment in learning tools for self-advocacy and self-care. Sessions are conducted through an online secure video platform. I offer a free 30 minute consult to ensure we are a good fit. I am typically able to respond fastest to email inquiries. También ofrezco servicios de terapia en español.

My name is Kaite (they/them), and I am a queer, neurodivergent, nonbinary therapist. I specialize in working with other queer and neurodiverse individuals to heal from trauma, manage depression and anxiety, and find ways to thrive in a world that was not designed with you in mind. I help by utilizing a variety of approaches in my practice, working with you to find strategies and techniques that align with your goals. I am trained in EMDR and CPT, but I also use DBT, MBCBT, ACT, IFS, somatic techniques, and artistic expression as modalities to help you reprocess and heal from trauma. In our first few sessions, you can expect a therapeutic space that is empowering, sensitive to your needs, and based on collaboration rather than looking at you as a problem to be fixed. My practice is unique because I approach healing from a holistic framework that takes all of your identities, experiences, and goals in mind rather than choosing a one size fits all approach. I am passionate about this work because I also know what it’s like to struggle after experiencing trauma, especially when trying to navigate complex medical systems where other providers do not look or experience the world like you do. I firmly stand with all marginalized groups and actively work within an antiracist, feminist, neurodiverse, and gender-affirming lens. I look forward to meeting you and supporting you on your continued journey towards mental wellbeing!

Over the past eight years I have worked in the mental health field in a variety of capacities, including inpatient units, residential facilities, and day treatment settings. My experience and training with children, adults, and families in these settings has given me a practical knowledge and understanding when working alongside my clients to facilitate change. A significant part of my experience has been working with adults and children coping with past trauma to safely express their anger, manage their depression, and navigate difficult life events. I strive to meet my clients and their families in the circumstances that they are in and make a collaborative effort to overcome the challenges they face. Each client's history, perspective, and relationships are different which is why I believe each therapeutic approach should be unique to the client. In addition to outpatient therapy, I work part time with the social services department at Rogers Behavioral Health. Forming relationships with clients and being witness to their progress and resiliency is something that has been rewarding. Outside of work I enjoy playing ultimate Frisbee, hiking, reading, and swimming.

Hello, I’m Amanda Pecha, LCSW, CSAC. I’m a licensed clinical social worker and certified substance abuse counselor with specialized training in addiction recovery, trauma-informed care, and integrated mental health treatment. I also provide EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and CPT (Cognitive Processing Therapy) for individuals working through traumatic experiences, PTSD, and long-standing patterns connected to trauma. I work with individuals navigating the impact of trauma, substance use, anxiety, and patterns of self-doubt or overwhelm. My therapeutic style is warm, practical, and collaborative, focusing on helping clients understand their story, break cycles that no longer serve them, and build the skills and confidence needed for lasting change. I use evidence-based approaches—including EMDR, CPT, CBT, and motivational interviewing—to support healing, reduce distress, and strengthen resilience. My aim is always to create a safe, judgment-free space where you feel understood, validated, and empowered to move toward a more grounded and authentic version of yourself. Whether you're seeking support for addiction, processing trauma, or wanting to improve your overall mental and emotional wellbeing, I’d be honored to support you on your healing journey.

My name is Carissa Weber. I am an outdoor enthusiast dedicated to helping others return to enjoying their own lives. As a therapist, I use a blend of treatment modalities, neuroscience, and sarcasm to help clients build on their strengths to rediscover who they are. When we work together, you will have a safe place to share your experience in a judgment-free zone. Rather than "jump to conclusions'' and make uncomfortable treatment recommendations to you after the first session, I will take time to get to know who you are, understand what you are facing, and help you explore ways to relieve your anxiety, depression, and self-doubt. I’ve worked to create the kind of non-judgmental therapy space where I’d want to find myself as a client—where one can ugly cry & make dark-humored jokes within the same session.

I appreciate the time you are taking to choose the best person and process for your specific needs. Being a college student requires a lot of difficult choices, and I know finding a counselor can be hard as well. Here are some thoughts about how I work, but please contact me if you have other questions. My goal as a counselor is to shape our work around the needs, goals, and overall direction you want to take in your life. If you have very focused, concrete issues you want to address, we’ll use a solution-focused approach to create plans and strategies for focused change and growth. If you have more broad, complicated things to address, we talk about a deeper purpose and meaning for your life that can serve as a foundation for more significant changes. No matter what you would like to talk about in counseling, we will capitalize on your strengths as a whole person to create the change you seek.
