Gary Bynum, LCSW
What kind of Therapist am I? I am compassionate. I listen without judgment. I acknowledge my client’s experiences. I encourage and support my clients without interrupting or interfering with their process of self-discovery that enables them to uncover what hurts and what is needed to repair it. From my many life experiences and educational background as a Therapist, Counselor, and Minister, I fully understand how-as a human being-our thoughts and feelings can be overwhelming, at times. And in those times is when help is most needed. That is the kind of Therapist, I am.

Rita Finta, LMHC
As a person-centered therapist, I believe that the most important predictor of successful therapy is the quality of the client-therapist relationship. By nature, we are all good, and growth will naturally occur in the right supportive environment. I have been working with adults with various life-transitioning and mental health challenges, as well as couples looking to reduce conflicts and enhance their intimate relationships. I draw from multiple psychoanalytic traditions emphasizing self-awareness and insight, mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral (CBT), coping strategies, and goal setting.
