Jesse Osborn, LCSW
Life isn’t always easy, or fun. There are disappointments and victories, trying struggles and times of bliss and exhilaration. It doesn’t always unfold the way we expect. We encounter setbacks, stress, and at times painful experiences that leave a deeper impact than we realize. These moments can shape how we see ourselves, how we relate to others, and how we move through the world. The idea of therapy may be foreign or seem uncomfortable and stopping to take care of ourselves can seem like a sign weakness. Often though, it's simply a decision to stop suffering alone.

Soleil Minnella, LMHC
Hi! my name is Soleil (So-Lay) - I have been a Therapist for many years and have worked with an array of populations. However, though I have worked with different diagnoses, my main "skill" is to just be human-what does this mean? WELL, I get how hard life can be sometimes because I am human too! I want to be that person that you can go to just to "talk" and be that person "in your corner" which many people do not have, especially in communities such as the LGBTQ+ which I specialize in. However, if you are searching for "deeper" therapy, I have experience with that as well, such as Psychoanalysis!
