Dr. Cristy Russo, PhD, MSCP, VSTCP is a pediatric and adult neuropsychologist with over 20 years experience. Her practice is grounded in the understanding that safety, nervous system regulation, and readiness matter. When the nervous system is supported, cognitive and emotional work can unfold naturally and without force. Care is shaped by what is present and unfolds at a pace that respects the specific needs of the person. She specializes in the integration of neuropsychology, mindfulness, neuro-somatic approaches, sound-based regulation, and cognitive behavioral therapy. Dr. Cristy's approach to care is informed by extensive experience in complex medical and psychological settings, with particular attention to trauma-responsive care, sensory processing, and nervous system regulation.
Jeff brings a calm, grounded presence to his approach, shaped by years of hands-on experience supporting both people and animals. His path has been guided by a deep respect for the body’s natural ability to restore balance when met with patience, safety, and attuned care. He has developed a unique sensitivity to subtle shifts in physical tension, emotional states, and energetic patterns, allowing him to support regulation and restoration in a way that feels gentle, respectful, and deeply supportive.
Jeff’s approach reflects a longstanding commitment to understanding connection, trust, and the ways in which steady presence helps both the nervous system and the body settle. Through years of working closely with animals, particularly dogs, he has developed a deep appreciation for attunement, consistency, and calm leadership, strengthening his ability to recognize subtle cues, support regulation, and help create environments where safety and trust can naturally emerge. His perspective is also grounded in a close connection to natural rhythms and environments, which informs his understanding of balance, resilience, and well-being. Jeff approaches each individual with humility, warmth, and genuine care, creating space for restoration, greater ease, and reconnection with the body’s own innate capacity for healing.
