Hii I’m Asia, and congratulations on completing the biggest step of this process... the search. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a passion in guiding clients on their unique paths of healing and self-discovery. While I have experience working with all age groups, I find my specialty lies within the young adult population. I truly believe this is such a unique period in our lives full of life lessons.
I’m Dr. Moya O’Leary, PsyD, LPC, a licensed therapist specializing in perinatal and maternal mental health. I help women and families navigate the emotional challenges of pregnancy, postpartum adjustment, fertility struggles, and pregnancy loss. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices like CBT and trauma-informed care. I believe therapy should feel supportive, practical, and tailored to your real life — not a one-size-fits-all process.
Janet “Jan” Yager is a board certified nurse practitioner with over 20 years of nursing experience in psychiatric, adult, and family health. After earning her Doctorate in Nursing Practice (DNP) from Stony Brook University, Jan took special interest in the disconnect between physical and mental health services.

For more than twenty years, I have had the privilege of walking alongside adolescents, adults, and couples during some of the most difficult and meaningful seasons of their lives. I believe that sometimes it can be difficult to see beyond the darkness in front of us. My role is to listen without judgement while helping you find your way toward the light again.
You may be feeling overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or stuck in patterns that no longer feel aligned with who you are. Many of my clients are insightful, sensitive, and capable, yet struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, attachment wounds, ADHD, or relationship challenges. You may be used to caring for others, masking your needs, or pushing through instead of feeling supported. You’re looking for therapy that feels safe, real, and validating — not judgmental or distant — and you want to better understand yourself, your emotions, and your relationships.
I offer relational, trauma-informed therapy grounded in attachment-based and emotionally focused approaches. I work collaboratively to help clients understand emotional and relational patterns, regulate their nervous systems, and build self-trust and healthier connections. My practice is affirming of neurodivergent and LGBTQ+ identities.
Therapy doesn’t have to feel cold or clinical. I offer a supportive, honest, and affirming space where you don’t have to mask or explain yourself. Whether you’re navigating trauma, relationships, identity, or emotional overwhelm, you deserve therapy that feels human, safe, and respectful of who you are.
