Karen Conner-Wilson, LCSW
As we embrace this “new normal,” learning how to cope with change can be difficult, especially when the tools you used to cope no longer work. Friends and family misunderstand you. Switching environments, using substances and people to adapt to the change is not working and the feelings of stress, depression and anxiety remain. I believe that each person knows what they need, and the solutions lie within. If you are experiencing difficulties within your life, by approaching treatment through a CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution Focused perspective, I will guide you to finding a new balance in life

Ashwini Gupta, LMFT
Namaste, I'm Ashwini Gupta. For over 20 years, I've helped people break free from anxiety, depression, trauma, and the relationships and transitions that keep them stuck. My work blends the science of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with the ancient wisdom of Vedanta and mindfulness — so you don't just manage symptoms, you reconnect with what matters and build a life that actually feels like yours. Beyond traditional therapy, my private practice includes shamanic work, animal communication, and soul-level intuitive channeling. This deeper dimension shapes everything I do: you get a therapist who is fully present, deeply attuned, and grounded in something bigger than technique. Ready to stop coping and start living? Let's talk.
