Joslyn Justi, LMFT

“Hello! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist passionate about helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s meaningful and challenging seasons. I specialize in working with anxiety disorders, OCD, perfectionistic thought patterns, life transitions, and low self-worth, helping clients develop more balanced ways of thinking and responding to stress.

I also enjoy working with couples who want to strengthen communication, rebuild connection, and move through conflict with greater understanding and intention. In addition, I support women and families navigating postpartum depression and anxiety, as well as the emotional adjustments that often come with new parenthood and identity shifts. Parenthood can be exhausting and overwhelming, and having a supportive, nonjudgmental space to process these experiences can make a meaningful difference.

My approach is collaborative and evidence-based, grounded in the belief that healing happens within safe, supportive relationships. Together, we will focus on practical tools, emotional clarity, and lasting change so you can feel more confident, connected, and empowered.”

Alyssa Sutton, LCSW

Hi, I'm Alyssa. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I feel genuinely honored to walk alongside people during some of life's most tender moments — whether that's a child finding their footing, a family caring for an aging parent, or someone facing a health journey they never expected.

My path has taken me through behavioral health, grief and loss, chronic and life-limiting illness, caregiver support, and care coordination. Along the way, I've learned that everyone carries their story differently, and there's no one-size-fits-all approach to healing.

What matters most to me is creating a space where you can exhale — where you're met with warmth, not judgment, and where your pace is the right pace. Together, we'll work on building the resilience and coping tools that feel authentic to you, so you can move toward the kind of growth that actually sticks.

If you're going through something hard right now, please know: you don't have to carry it alone. I'd be glad to sit with you in it.

Specialties: Grief & loss, chronic and life limiting illness, care giver support, compassion fatigue.
