Our Team
We support a diverse range of issues with an equally diverse range of tools and training. Although each practitioner will have their own approach, we all take an active role in the process of therapy, offering insight and reflection.
Our team is trauma trained and LGBTQIA+ affirming.
Ben Kennedy, MA, AMFT #148900
Works with: Individuals, Couples, and Families. I have experience supporting clients facing a wide range of problems in living, including depression, anxiety, relational difficulties and beyond.
Specialization & training: Brief and long-term talk therapy, Relational Psychoanalysis, Mentalization-Based Therapy, Neurodivergence, Developmental Trauma, EMDR.

Bio: I think of psychotherapy as a voyage into the unknown. I want to help you connect more deeply with your authentic self so that you can meet life’s challenges with greater presence and purpose. In our work together, we will help you discover choices that may have been hidden or previously unavailable. By cultivating a space for open-ended exploration, new forms of life take shape within. It is an emergent, spontaneous process of both knowing and unknowing, mystery and clarity.

Gabriella D’Urso, MA, APCC, AMFT #140147
Works with: Individuals, Couples. Adolescents/Teens, and Families.
Specialization & training: Jungian and Depth Psychology, Psychodynamic Psychology, Attachment Theory, Existentialism, Spirituality, Life Purpose, Highly Sensitive People (HSP), EMDR
Additional experience: End of Life Doula, Master's Level Reiki Certified, Psychedelic Integration, Dreamwork, Astrology and Human Design
Background: Fashion Design, Product Management
Bio: I work with clients who are seeking a deeper, more meaningful relationship with themselves and others. Often, inner conflicts get in the way and can present as depression and anxiety or coping mechanisms like perfectionism and procrastination. These issues can indicate a difficulty in experiencing opposing thoughts or feelings and can lead to suffering when parts of the self are repressed, often without conscious awareness. Therapy is an invitation to return to wholeness; to acknowledge, accept, and integrate the varied parts of yourself. The results can be a clearer sense of self, authenticity, and general well-being.
The variety and depth of our work will depend on your unique pacing, interests, and intuitive guidance system. I will honor and respect your process, while encouraging you to stretch into unknown territory. I am adept at creating a space for the exploration of your inner world while supporting your personal evolution. Please reach out for a free consultation to explore the possibilities.
Sonny Granade, MA, AMFT #141371
Works with: Individuals, Couples. Adolescents/Teens, and Families.
Specialization & training: EMDR, Strength-based relational therapy, psychodynamics, mindfulness; I specialize in periods of identity and relationship transition (i.e. parenthood, separation/divorce, career shifts, etc.), work/life balance, parent/child dynamics, and grief/loss.
Background: Gallery director, contemporary art curation and sales, nonprofit development and fundraising.
Bio: The story of our growth is often a story of change — in the layered identities we inhabit, the relationships that anchor us, and the responsibilities we are called to step into. In our work together we will explore the unique complexities, challenges, and opportunities for empowerment that lay within these vulnerable, vital periods of transition. Drawing on my training in relational therapy, I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space to explore and evolve your own thought processes, relationship patterns, and habitual responses. As fellow travelers and collaborators, we will source creative new approaches that better support your agency, resilience, and well-being throughout life’s inevitable changes.
Ben Bernstein, MA, AMFT #137573
Works with: Individuals, Teens and Couples. I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and family issues.
Specialization & training: Relational Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, Mindfulness
Additional experience: Mindfulness, Katonah Yoga
Background: Music, Technology, Film
Bio: I often felt confused before I went to therapy. Things looked good on paper but I couldn’t figure out why I felt stuck in a cycle. Even the good things in life seemed a little thin, a little tenuous, a little chaotic. In therapy, I began to realize that I often got trapped in a big feeling, felt overwhelmed, and moved away from it. With the right support, I came to understand that the depth in life doesn't come from avoiding hard feelings. It comes from truly holding and honoring them, difficult as that can be.
I work to help you better hold anxiety, depression, shame, doubt, intimacy and just wanting more from life. Research tells us that the quality of our relationships is the main predictor of a full and satisfying life. I believe therapy is a chance to get deep with your most important relationship: the one between you and yourself.

Rachel Rosenbaum, MA, AMFT #137373
Works with: Individuals and Couples. I specialize in working with trauma including but not limited to C-PTSD and sexual trauma.
Specialization & training: EMDR, Trauma, Somatic modalities, CRM, TRM, Internal Family Systems (IFS), attachment theory, humanistic approaches
Background: Chef
Bio: When venturing to heal our deepest wounds, we require safety and warmth before we can even begin our inward journey. As a trauma-informed therapist with personal experience in healing from the effects of relational wounds, narcissistic abuse, sexual & childhood trauma, I understand the need for warmth and safety on a deep level.
My training in various trauma-informed modalities as well as my personal experience in healing from C-PTSD grant me the ability to hold your hand as we navigate your healing journey with a deep, understanding of the insidious effects of trauma. You already possess the innate ability to heal. We all do. Together we will rediscover the parts of you that are capable of deep love, joy & curiosity.
Pam Soffer, MA, CMT, AMFT#136419
Works with: Individuals, Couples, Teens and Children
Specialization & training: Jungian & Depth Psychology, EMDR, Ecopsychology/Nature-Based, Mindfulness
Additional experience: Ayurvedic Medicine, Breathwork, Craniosacral Therapy
Background: Musician and Bodyworker
Bio: Just like a seed, we are all born with the intuitive wisdom we need to blossom. For many of us, personal and cultural traumas inhibit our ability to connect to this wisdom, making it difficult to access our sense of peace, joy and connectedness. With guidance, connecting to these tender places can become an invitation to discover a more whole, liberated self. In our work together, we will explore your inner life, identify limiting patterns and develop your mind-body-spirit connection so that you can connect more deeply to your present embodied experience and embrace life's challenges as opportunities for growth and transformation.

Founder of Inner Vision Psychotherapy and Clinical Supervisor
Works with: Individuals, Couples and Families. I am adept at working with artists and entrepreneurs, with a focus on trauma adaptations such as workaholism, perfectionism, co-dependency and attachment repair, and offer further specialization in working with spirituality and grief.
Specialization & training: Jungian & Depth Psychology, Trauma, EMDR, CRM/TRM, Mindfulness, Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Attachment Theory, Highly Sensitive People (HSP)
Additional experience: Yoga Teacher Training (RYT), Masters level Reiki Certified

Bio: I believe that we each possess an innate capacity for healing and flourishing that is waiting on the right emotional and relational conditions to access transformation. I am passionate about creating a safe and engaged space where my clients can expand into the fullest experience of the moment which, to me, means building a practice of embracing all the joys and the pains of being alive.
It is our birthright to be open, loving and connected to the world around us, and many of us lose touch with this inborn ability through the protective adaptations brought on by trauma , which have outstayed their welcome. The alchemical collaboration I have with my clients makes way for deeper levels of self-acceptance and self-respect, resulting in an expanded capacity for connection with the world around them.
