Matthew Pieknik

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW

Online & In-PersonAccepting New Clients

You have a story about yourself — about who you are, what you're capable of, what you deserve. Chances are, you didn't write all of it. Parts came from your family, your culture, old wounds, expectations you never agreed to. And chances are, some of that story no longer fits. I come to psychotherapy from an unusual place: a background in literature and literary theory, and twenty years of teaching and counseling before I ever became a therapist. That means I listen differently. I pay close attention to the language you use, the stories you tell about yourself, and the larger narratives — familial, generational, cultural, even unconscious — that have been shaping you long before you had a say in the matter. Together, we co-author something new. Not by erasing your history, but by loosening its grip — finding the parts of the old story that were never really true, and uncovering resources you didn't know you had to build the life you actually want. Sexuality often has a central role in this work; it's rarely peripheral to who we are and who we're becoming, and I make room for it accordingly. I work most often with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, personality disorders, and relationship conflict — but more than any diagnosis, I'm interested in the story underneath it, and in helping you become its author instead of its subject. If this resonates, I'd love to talk.

Jacob Korenstein

LMHC

Online TherapyAccepting New Clients

I am an LMHC psychotherapist with almost two decades of experience. I work independently, primarily with adults and couples, while also working with children and adolescents. I am now offering couples intensives, which are one- to three-day focused psychotherapy sessions designed to give couples more time and space to work on their relationship in a shorter period of time. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical, while also making space to understand the deeper patterns that can keep people stuck. I draw from several modalities, including CBT, psychodynamic, attachment-based, Gottman-informed, systems-based, and existential therapies. Over the years, I have found that no single approach works for everyone, so I draw from my experience across different modalities to find what is most helpful for each client or couple. My goal is to help people better understand themselves and their relationships and make meaningful changes that last.

Christopher Cannon

psychotherapist

Online & In-PersonAccepting New Clients

I work with people navigating developmental trauma, addiction, depression, and the complicated work of couples relationships. My own path through these same struggles — trauma, addiction, and long-term depression — sparked a nearly twenty-year exploration into meditation and somatic psychotherapy, and shaped how I show up with clients now. I hold a master's in Mindfulness-Based Transpersonal Counseling from Naropa University and I'm a certified Somatic Experiencing Practitioner and Certified Addiction Specialist. I've worked in community mental health and private practice since 2014, with individuals and couples alike. What I care about most is helping people find real, felt change — not just insight, but a shift in the body and nervous system that actually sticks. Outside of sessions, you'll probably find me at the record store, on a trail, or dancing badly in my living room with my wife and daughter. I'd be glad to work with you.

Hi, I'm Emma. I work with people navigating anxiety, big life transitions, and the deeper process of becoming more authentically themselves.
