Our Leadership Team
Founder and CEO ~ Linda Zaffram, LCSW
As the founder and visionary of our company, I am deeply passionate about our mission of serving others who have been impacted by mental health issues stemming from my personal experience and specialty in perinatal mood disorders, perinatal loss and fertility. Through the pain of my own miscarriage and traumatic birth, I found through my own healing the passion to grow our practice to serve all in the community. Maternal mental health is a family issue that impacts the entire family. Here we are able to serve entire families as our team provides care for clients 4 years old throughout the lifespan. Our vision is to provide empathic and supportive care so that no one feels alone in their journey is the driving force behind everything we do. As a leader, I am passionate about creating a culture that cultivates where you will be seen, you will be heard and you will be nurtured. I am grateful to lead a team of heart centered, person centered staff who are committed to the mission, vision and values of our company and are stewards who empower the community to heal one day at a time.
In loving memory ~ Miri Eynan, LCSW
Miri was dedicated to fostering a supportive and compassionate environment where clinicians help clients heal and grow. Client’s care and wellbeing was her top priority. She was honored to lead, supervise, consult and support an amazing team of clinicians who offer high quality services where clients feel safe, understood, and empowered. She was committed to ensuring that HCC maintained a culture of excellence as well as the highest standards of ethical and clinical practice.
Practice Manager ~ Catherine Wells, BS
As the Practice Manager, I have the privilege of leading and supporting the daily operations of our company with a focus on heart-centered, compassionate care. Guided by our vision and values, I strive to ensure that every aspect of our work creates a welcoming space where clients feel seen, heard, and nurtured on their healing journey. In partnership with our leadership team, I strategically plan and monitor day-to-day processes to drive smooth progress and sustainable growth. I lead our dedicated administrative team—encompassing billing, scheduling, and our medication management program coordination—working together to create systems that foster ease, efficiency, and excellence for our clients and staff alike. At the heart of my role is a commitment to cultivating an atmosphere of warmth, care, and integrity. Through thoughtful leadership and collaboration, I aim to align our operations with our core values: delivering compassionate care, honoring cultural diversity, promoting social justice, serving our community, and embracing joy and playfulness in all that we do.
Community Engagement ~ Jasmine Sheffield, BA
As the Community Engagement and Marketing Coordinator, I am deeply passionate about sharing the healing work of our mental health providers and building meaningful connections with our community. Through creative storytelling, impactful events, and thoughtful campaigns, I highlight the compassionate care that helps our clients feel seen, heard, and supported. I take pride in fostering partnerships with those who share our commitment to inclusive, culturally competent care, creating opportunities to uplift and inspire vibrant, thriving communities.
Clinicial Director ~ Cristal Lake-Sanders, LPC
As the Clinical Director and one of the therapists at our practice, I am deeply honored to serve in both leadership and clinical roles. My passion extends beyond providing therapy to clients—I am equally committed to fostering a workplace culture where our clinicians feel supported, valued, and empowered to grow. I believe that when therapists are encouraged to develop their unique strengths, pursue their professional goals, and receive meaningful collaboration and guidance, they are better equipped to provide exceptional care, creating a more impactful therapeutic experience for the clients we serve. I also provide structured, high-quality clinical supervision for LPC Residents as they progress toward independent licensure. I value the opportunity to mentor emerging clinicians by helping them strengthen their clinical skills, develop confidence in their therapeutic approach, navigate ethical and professional challenges, and cultivate their own authentic identities as therapists. Watching clinicians grow into competent, compassionate professionals is one of the most rewarding aspects of my work. As a therapist, I remain deeply committed to providing evidence-based, individualized care within a warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental therapeutic environment. I believe that effective therapy begins with a strong therapeutic relationship built on trust, empathy, and respect. My approach is tailored to each client’s unique experiences, strengths, and goals, with the aim of helping individuals navigate life’s challenges, foster resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change. It is a privilege to walk alongside clients throughout their journey toward greater healing, self-understanding, and overall well-being.
