Hi, I'm Dr. Mark Schnose, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist. I specialize in helping individuals and couples navigate depression, marital challenges, trauma, and PTSD. Whether you are dealing with anxiety, grief, life transitions, or relationship conflicts, I am here to offer the highest level of professional care. I believe a good psychologist is not called to see through people, but rather, called to see people through their darkest moments. Working with teens, adults, and seniors, I strive to provide the empathetic support you need to heal and grow.

Are you struggling to have harmony in your relationships? Does having ease in your life seem like a far-fetched dream? Are you feeling overwhelmed with the state of the world and all you have to do? Welcome, you're in the right place! I have been in your shoes and the first (or twenty) step is always the hardest. As someone who has learned to balance multiple cultures, I know what it can feel like to straddle various parts of your identity. I have first hand experienced feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, angry, and at a complete loss for how to navigate the intensity of my emotions. This has informed my practice and work with clients where I strongly believe that our emotions guide us to understanding ourselves in a new light. Asking for help can be difficult, especially in a culture that values productivity over personality.
