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.

Gaelle Vernet, LCPC
I am passionate about taking on the journey with people to assist them with identifying the interconnections of different parts of their lives. Once the relations are known, then it is easier to understand the way each part affects another. Since everyone is different and no specific modality can fit everyone, I work from a collaborative, strength-based approach, using modalities such as CBT, mindfulness therapy, reality therapy, and positive psychology. I encourage people to pursue a holistic approach to health, which incorporates exercise, sleep, nutrition, relationships, spiritual practices, and hobbies.
