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.

Candice Campbell, LCSW
I believe therapy is most powerful when it helps you bridge the gap between "just getting by" and living your personal truth. Therapy is a journey to explore the experiences, expectations, and patterns that have influenced your life, identify the areas that need attention, and develop the skills to navigate life's challenges. My passion is to support you on this journey and utilize interventions that facilitate healing. Wellness is not about perfection. It is about making intentional choices, one step at a time, toward greater clarity, confidence, and connection to the life you want to live.
