Sulonda Smith, LPC
Imagine waking up feeling calm, happier, and more confident because you've mastered coping skills that decrease anxiety, anger, frustration, and fear! For almost 30 years, in a nonjudgmental and nurturing way, I've helped people live happier lives. Pain has been normalized and we get locked into toxic cycles, then suffer. Learning to love and accept yourself through tough experiences can seem hard to do; but once you learn to change how you think and feel, the situation will change too. I use humor and care as a healing tool. I've helped hundreds of men & women including from racially diverse backgrounds.

Dr. D'Ann Downey, Psychologist
I have been a practicing psychotherapist for over 40 years, 20 of that as a licensed clinical social worker and 20+ as a clinical psychologist. The combination of those two degrees has been invaluable for me. With my social work background I learned much about family systems theory. With my doctorate in psychology I obtained more knowledge in depth of personality development. I think in terms of the early developmental years and how they impact who we are and our life choices. We may not be able to change others but we can change ourselves and therefore feel happier and more fulfilled.

Kimberly Chance, LMFT
As the therapist, my role is to provide support and facilitate greater awareness and thereby foster a more enriching experience. I believe a person enters therapy when their life's circumstances outweigh their ability to cope and the right support can allow them to feel more equipped to manage the challenges they may face. I see therapy as a journey in which a person can explore more about themselves and process their experiences; with the ultimate destination being more than a specific outcome but all the revelations that are gained along the way. I look forward to joining the various journeys of life.
