Charles Benincasa, PsyD – Founder, Executive Director, Clinical Training Director
I focus on individuals who have experienced complex trauma and dissociation. My primary speciality is working with individuals who have been abused or neglected in childhood. I practice from a feminist-multicultural lens and can provide services to clients with diverse backgrounds, including LGBTQ+, racially and ethnically diverse clients, and individuals with disabilities. I also work with individuals in polyamory, kink, and BDSM communities, and I identify as a sex-positive therapist. I am trained as a DBT and EMDR therapist.

Tyson Bailey, PsyD ABPP – Board Chair, Director of Operations, Assessment Coordinator
I primarily work with adults who have experienced one or more traumatic events. I have a particular interest in helping those with early, repeated trauma, including physical, sexual, or emotional abuse and neglect. I focus on honoring people’s identities and stories, including experience working with individuals who have been marginalized within our society. Please reach out with any questions you have so we can determine if we might be an effective match for creating a meaningful and healing relationship.

Elizabeth Scriven, PsyD SUDP – Director of Advancement, Access Coordinator
I think therapy is a partnership, and the process starts by building a relationship between us from which therapeutic change can sprout and grow. This is often easier said than done, as many of the people I share space with have been hurt in relationships. Therefore, we move through the process at a slow, comfortable pace while we identify the work that the person would like to do. I work from an integrative feminist approach, which leans into trauma-informed understanding, skills-based teaching for feeling better fast, and narrative therapy, which situates people as the authors of their stories. I work collaboratively with the other person in the room to best meet their unique needs and support them as they move towards their goals.

Heather Spence, PsyD
I work with teens (13+) and adults across the lifespan. I specialize in working with people who have experienced trauma, including childhood maltreatment. I also enjoy working with LGBTQ clients, including those folx who identify as transgender. That said, I work well with a broad range of concerns. If you are experiencing challenges like depression, anxiety, grief & loss, identity development, life transitions, or have challenges in your relationships, we might be a good fit!

Bill Heusler, PsyD
I have several specialty areas, including trauma informed therapy and assessment services for people suffering with the impact of overwhelming events in their lives. My approach to the therapy process is collaborative and integrative, which may include any combination of one or more techniques or therapeutic modalities that seem to be the best fit for the situation. I provide services for children, adolescents, and adults with individual, relationship, and/or family difficulties. I also provide specialized services for first responders including: firefighters, paramedics, law enforcement, and corrections personnel.

Michelle Brown, PsyD
I specialize in treating individuals who have experienced trauma, chronic pain, or illness. Many of my clients come to therapy still suffering despite prior treatments and are seeking innovative approaches to healing. After being in therapy together, my clients often say that their problems feel manageable, their behaviors have changed for the better, they have healthier relationships, and they have a sense of purpose in their lives.
