MEET US

NANCY FRY, PhD, MBA
In both my professional and personal life, I believe that every person is worthy of respect and deserves to be treated in a caring, compassionate, and non-judgmental manner. As a therapist, I have a collaborative style and strive to create a warm, safe space where clients feel heard and understood. This environment enables you to learn and practice new skills in order to achieve your goals. I use an integrated approach to therapy that relies on interpersonal strategies but integrates other evidence-based theories based on your presenting concerns and individual needs. I am a strong advocate of the power of human strengths and the effectiveness of positive psychology to help you heal, overcome obstacles, and flourish.
​
Having made a major career change from being a finance executive to licensed psychologist, I have a passion for helping people thrive at work as well as in life. I specialize in helping you manage workplace stress including workplace bullying, juggling work/life balance, and more.

KRISTINE McIVER JOHNSON, PhD
My approach to therapeutic counseling is to ensure you feel safe, accepted and appreciated and that we share a common goal to achieve a renewal to wholeness of your thoughts, feelings and sense of self. This necessitates a collaborative approach in which I do a lot of listening and you feel heard.
I can't think of a greater privilege than to be allowed to enter another's world and walk through their pain and confusion in search of hope and healing. I am so very fortunate to be in a position that matches my life-long fascination with, and curiosity about, people. We human beings are amazingly complex and varied!
I work with a variety of therapeutic approaches, from a foundation of Attachment Theory, to match your individual needs. I look forward to working with you in pursuing a greater sense of well-being!

KRISTIN TEASDALE, PhD
I believe in the power of a hopeful, nonjudgmental healing environment, where clients can feel comfortable even when addressing difficult topics. I work largely from cognitive behavioral and positive psychology approaches, helping people develop their own strengths to make positive changes in their lives. I also am trained in EMDR and exposure therapies.
​
In my undergraduate and graduate work, I studied contributors to happy, healthy individuals and relationships. I enjoy the challenge of applying this knowledge both in the therapeutic realm and at home as a mom to three boys.
