Kymberly Kremnitzer

Therapist

Virtual • Michigan


You might look like you have it together, but internally you’re overthinking everything, overgiving in relationships, and second-guessing yourself constantly. Many of my clients learned early on to prioritize others’ emotions, and now feel stuck, anxious, or unsure of what they actually want. I help you understand these patterns and break out of them so you can feel more confident, grounded, and clear in your relationships.

Barbara Nasser-Gulch

Therapist

Virtual • Michigan


My work is trauma-informed, attachment-focused, and relational. I begin with “What happened and how did your nervous system learn to survive it?” Emotional neglect is painful precisely because it is invisible. I create a space where your inner experience is met with steadiness, clarity, and care. Healing attachment wounds requires presence that stays.
