Symonne Kennedy

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW

I believe in a holistic approach that can encompass many dynamic dimensions of the self. As a Black, Neurodivergent, Queer, Femme, I know that a person can hold many identities, some more front-facing than others. I work with clients who experience anxiety, high stress, depression, ADHD, trauma, low self-esteem, relationship issues and coparenting challenges. Whether you are struggling with your mental health, your relationships, your own identity or a loved one’s, my goal is to establish an open and compassionate space for you to feel trusting enough to share your experiences. Together we will work to build a supportive, enjoyable and sustainable way of living and relating that works for you.

Caroline Yopes

Licensed Creative Arts Therapist, LCAT, ATR-BC

As a couples therapist and creative arts therapist, I help partners and individuals explore their inner worlds with curiosity and compassion. Together, we’ll work to understand the origins of your struggles, illuminate unconscious patterns that shape your relationships, and cultivate new ways of relating—to yourself, to others, and to your life.​ My work is grounded in psychodynamic, attachment-based, and trauma-informed therapy, with an emphasis on creating a thoughtful, supportive, and collaborative therapeutic space.

In couples therapy, I work with partners experiencing recurring conflict, emotional distance, attachment injury, or difficulty reconnecting. My approach helps couples slow down reactive patterns, understand what’s happening beneath conflict or withdrawal, and move toward greater emotional clarity, repair, and intimacy, particularly during periods of rupture or life transition. I have helped couples navigate fertility, loss, sexual intimacy, gender transition, affairs, non-monogamy, financial stress, parenting, and trauma.

I also offer individual psychotherapy and creative arts therapy for adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and relational challenges. Creative arts therapy is integrated as a clinical tool to support emotional processing and insight when words alone feel limiting.
