James Neumann, LCSW

Therapy

Born and raised in Wisconsin. Graduated with a Master's Degree in Social Work with a clinical focus. I started my therapy career in a psychiatric hospital and after about three years relocated to Alaska where I spent twenty years. Much of my Behavioral Health experience was conducted with the Alaska Native population along with other ethnic groups. I believe cultural aspects are an integral part of an individual's life and experiences. I focus the therapy experience on being client centered and individualized since I do not think one path is the same for all. In my free time I enjoy outdoor activities.

Kathryn Klein, LCPC

Therapy

Hello - I would first like to say I'm not a conventional therapist. I do have professional training and professional experience and degrees, but really, I consider myself a fellow human being here to help another fellow human being.  I pull from my knowledge, professional and personal experiences to provide you with insights and guidance.   I mostly like to listen, provide feedback and offer solutions in a conversational manner.   I feel strongly that this is your healing journey so if you find that my style doesn't work for you, that's okay; but if you want to give me a chance, I'd love to hear your story.
