  • Founder

    Clinical Social Worker/Therapist Melissa Hoon works with teenagers (14-19), adults, and families as individuals and in groups. She has worked in a variety of settings – residential, inpatient psychiatric unit, emergency room, and K-12 schools.

    I use either person-centered language or identity-first language when referring to autism, depending on individual preference.


  • Kristen Naes (she/her), a spiritually-focused therapist who supports women and LGBTQIA+ folks in coming home to themselves. I offer inclusive, affirming, and trauma-informed therapy for those ready to break free from old patterns, reconnect with their inner wisdom, and create lives rooted in self-trust, clarity, and purpose.
