Melissa Gummeson (she/her)

Registered Psychotherapist

Do you struggle with racing thoughts or intense emotional reactions that constantly pull your focus away from what’s important to you? Are you constantly stressed, rushed, or on edge, when all you want is a sense of calm? Does it sometimes feel impossible to get started on tasks, so things pile up until they feel overwhelming?

Shayesteh Zarieh

Registered Psychotherapist

Let’s be honest—starting therapy isn’t always a bold, empowered choice. Sometimes it’s a quiet, messy, or reluctant one. Maybe you’re simply tired of pretending everything’s fine. This space is for the parts of you that don’t have to be impressive, productive, or put-together. The parts that are unsure, grieving, angry, numb, or just curious about what else is possible.

Questions about identity, values, and purpose often sit quietly underneath these experi…
