Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC
I have been a therapist for over 10 years and running my own company for the last 2. I use a combination of Biblical therapy as well as CBT. I truly care for my clients and desire them to have a more joyful life free of anxiety and depression. I have worked with many individuals, families, and marriages and have seen growth and freedom from stress achieved. I have seen marriages put back together and families and individuals before stronger. I also host a podcast with my wife and we cover topics such as marriage, narcissism, relationships, etc.

Melissa Pickett, LPCC
Licensed Professional Counselor
I like to take a direct, open minded and humorous approach to therapy. There are times that don't allow for much humor and that's okay too...I will meet you where you are at!
Along the way, I like to come up with goals and ideas together, using a creative and collaborative approach.
