Kristin Orbin

Resident in Counseling

Pronouns: She/Her

I am a queer, neuro-spicey Resident in Counseling, impassioned with providing a therapeutic environment that embodies safety, acceptance, and listening with intention.

As an advocate for social justice, I want my clients to know that no matter who they are and what their experiences have been, they deserve to feel safe, and that safe spaces are vital to healing. Bessel A. van der Kolk says, “being able to feel safe with other people is probably the most important aspect of mental health; safe connections are fundamental to meaningful and satisfying lives.” My desire is for every client to feel validated and supported in treatment. My sessions often involve my “co-counselor” Elly the elephant, a puppet that embraces the teachings of love, boundaries, and healing ooey gooey emotions.

Deedra Everett

Supervisee in Social Work

Pronouns: She/Her


I see play as the language children use to express and process their experiences and big emotions. To help your child grow through play I create a safe space for them to explore their inner world and move toward healing.

I specialize in working with children ages 4-12 struggling with low self-esteem, anxiety, and self-regulation as well as adjusting to new or difficult situations including separation and divorce, a change in school, sibling relationships, and social/peer issues. I also provide parent coaching and therapy.

I primarily work as a child-centered play therapist, with the additional perspective of relational, psychodynamic, expressive, attachment-based, and family systems approaches. My goal is to gently and compassionately help your child explore their inner world, develop coping skills, and work through trauma.
