Cassie Smeltzer, LCSW
director & psychotherapist
I believe therapy doesn’t have to be intimidating, I strive to bring warmth, humor, and a practical approach to every session, creating a space where clients feel empowered to navigate dating, love, and personal challenges with confidence.
I have a strong desire to help people build the meaningful relationships they long for. I'm dedicated to making personal growth and connection both effective and enjoyable.
My background, which seems a bit random at first glance includes international work/study and years of experience helping individuals from all walks of life. It has given me the insight to understand the complexities of human connection across cultures. Studying in post-Katrina New Orleans and Mumbai, India further shaped my perspective, offering firsthand insight into the power of resilience, adaptability, and the human spirit.
Whether I'm guiding clients through dating struggles, relationship roadblocks, or personal growth, I am committed to helping people find joy, authenticity, and lasting fulfillment in love and life.

Taylor Anderson
marriage & family therapist registered intern
Hi there! I'm Taylor, I have my master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and pre-licensed clinical experience in working with couples and families.
I consider it a privilege to support couples as they prepare for their wedding and marriage! Often, so much focus is dedicated to the Big Day, but not near enough time and energy is devoted to preparing for the marriage afterward. I love premarital coaching because I can offer couples the knowledge, skills and tools to truly thrive in marriage and navigate challenges in the best way possible. Through coaching, we will identify your strength and growth areas as a couple, explore common and important issues in marriage, and work together to reach your goals so you leave coaching feeling confident, connected and prepared.
As a human, I've been married for over five years and I'm a mom to my 1.5 year old daughter. I enjoy a good cup of coffee, the sunshine, and being creative. I love to travel and have lived in several different states in the U.S. and in a few different countries as well.
I look forward to getting to know you and supporting you in your goals as a couple!
