Blake Bullock, LCSW
I work with teens, young adults, and middle-aged adults looking to explore what areas of their lives are "working" and which are not. I have extensive experience working with neurodivergent, queer/trans, and BiPOC clients looking for a therapist who will examine their intricate and intersecting identities with care and humility. My clients also often seek "geek therapy" - an approach utilizing a client's fandoms, special interests, and hobbies in treatment. After all, the best approach to connection is often through the things we love.

Sarah Spurling, LCSW
You might be feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or emotionally stuck — like everything takes more effort than it should. Maybe your thoughts won’t slow down, your motivation is low, or you’re going through the motions without feeling fully present. Many of the adults I work with live with anxiety, depression, trauma, or are navigating major life transitions. I believe therapy works best when you feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely understood. Our work together isn’t about fixing you or pushing you to change before you’re ready. It’s about building a trusting relationship where you can show up as yourself.
