Andrea Grimes, LCPC
Hi, I'm Andrea! We all know what it's like to need a shoulder during tough times. I have spent the last twelve years in the deeply meaningful work of mental health, and before that I worked in the field of biology. To me, therapy is a wonderful combination of putting the pieces together and building human connection. Together, we will explore all the big and small questions that make up a life of mental and emotional wellness. Whether you need a plan of action on specific issues, or general support as you face up to life's many challenges, I am excited to be your reliable partner on the journey!

James Neumann, LCSW
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.
