Carly McDade, LMFT, PMH-C, TCTSY-F
PSYCHOTHERAPY, YOGA, REIKI
SVC CO-FOUNDERCarly is a systemically-trained therapist, serving adults & couples. Many folks she works with are navigating anxiety, stress, grief/loss and complex trauma. A mother herself, she honors the joys, difficulties and ambivalence that comes with parenting / caregiving. Carly is curious about the intersections of your lived experiences across societal, familial, cultural & political constructs — especially those in which you have been oppressed or marginalized. She also provides somatic modalities including Mindfulness, Brainspotting and Ketamine-Assisted therapy.
Carly enjoys exploring frameworks of the nervous system and unconscious mind, as she believes their integration can support sustainable healing. She finds that humans are best nurtured when the whole-person is connected to mind, body, relationships & the natural world — of which we are all a part.

Trudy Gregson, MS, LPC
PSYCHOTHERAPY
As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I help people who are feeling stuck in some way - in their relationships, their work, making a decision, anything that’s important to them. People sometimes notice this “stuckness” as feelings of anxiety or depression, and it sometimes becomes most noticeable during a transitional time in one’s life. Past trauma or self-esteem issues can also lend to these feelings.
I work with my clients to help them discover what’s keeping them stuck. I ask questions that make them think about themselves in a different way, and I listen deeply, without judgment. I use a strengths-based perspective and my approach is empathic, person-centered and non-pathologizing. By this I mean, I don't see people as their problems - I see their resourcefulness and their innate resilience. This empowers them to trust their own internal wisdom. Through our work together, my clients gain insights and identify ways to help them get unstuck, as well as gain greater clarity and a sense of confidence in their ability to get what they need from their relationships and their lives.
I have a Master’s degree in Clinical and Counseling Psychology from Chestnut Hill College and I’m trained in Internal Family Systems therapy Levels 1 & 2 through the IFS Institute. I am experienced working with people of diverse backgrounds and customize my approach according to each person’s individual needs.
