Who we are & whom we serve

We are a small relational trauma-responsive strengths-based psychotherapy practice that serves a diverse group of clients across Illinois, Maryland, Nebraska, Pennsylvania, and Vermont. We primarily serve clients on Medicaid.

 

We each have our own specialties, modalities, and service populations. But each one of us can see any type of client. We treat anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, etc. Please read through our profiles for more information.

Merak, Serbian noun:

 

A feeling of bliss and oneness with the universe that comes from the simple pleasures in life, the pursuit of small things that add up to a sense of happiness and fulfillment
