Jo Sherrill, MA 
As a psychotherapist, I offer a positive supportive approach for resolving issues that get in the way of living the life you want. Together we create a safe place for you to speak your unspoken feelings, thoughts and dreams. I listen compassionately, and we take the time for you to listen to yourself and connect with your deep inner wisdom. Specialities include: Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), addictions, eating disorders, body image issues, support for living with illness, codependency and Enneagram. I received my MA in Psychology in 1983 and have more than 30 years experience in private practice. I offer sessions in Spanish. Soy bilingue y ofresco sessiones en espanol.

Dianne Drake Foss, MS
As a certified Gestalt Therapist, I enjoy working with children, adults, and facilitating support groups for both moderate drinking, and adult children of alcoholics. My private practice at People House is a caring, non-judgmental place to share your concerns about problems with alcohol, children's issues, self-esteem, grief, loss, anxiety, and the elderly. After listening to what's happening in your life, I often use Gestalt, play therapy, art, sand tray and cognitive techniques, depending on client needs. For low-income clients, I offer a sliding scale on a limited basis. I also offer a complementary 15-minute, get-to-know session, followed by an hour of therapy. See my website for more information about my practice at www.ddftherapy.com.

Katie Brown, Holistic Wellness Coach
Are you being challenged by ill-health? While aches, pains and other discomforts are not pleasant, they are actually a valuable wakeup call that you need to make dietary or lifestyle changes. For many, the vast array of alternative healing modalities, herbs, and ancient wisdoms can be a bit overwhelming. In addition to being a Certified Master Herbalist, I have additional training in Medical Qigong, Hand and Ear Acupressure and Emotional Release using Young Living Essential Oils. I would be honored to work with you to address your current symptoms and to be your guide as you embark on the journey back to radiant health. Sliding-fee-scale available.
