Octavia Macklin, LMFT
Therapy asks us to be vulnerable, but it can also be a space to explore, reflect, and grow at your own pace. My goal is to make that process feel welcoming and supportive. I work with clients navigating life changes, relationship challenges, identity, purpose, and mental health concerns. My approach is direct, experiential, humanistic, and grounded in authenticity and compassion. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can feel seen,heard and understood.

Laurel Lass, LCSW
Welcome! My name is Laurel Lass and I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) since 2002. I offer on-line therapy to adult individuals and couples. Caring about our pain is the beginning of the healing process. Care supports us in embracing the "unknown” in spite of our fears. It helps us to heal and to explore what we really want in life and to create that. I work with individuals and couples to support them on their path to look within and discover their inherent value. And to learn how to engage with others in more meaningful and satisfying ways. Let me know if I can support you.

We’ll celebrate progress and foster growth while exploring patterns and healing past wounds, while finding new belief in yourself.
