Rick Rodgers
Counselor/Therapist, MSW, LCSW, CADC, CCTP, RYT 500
My journey as an Afghanistan veteran and licensed psychotherapist has instilled a profound understanding of trauma's impact. Driven by this experience, I offer a holistic approach that weaves together talk therapy with somatic practices like mindfulness and meditation, fostering healing and resilience. I am passionate about helping individuals navigate trauma recovery, addiction, and narcissistic abuse. Additionally, I provide DOT SAP evaluations for transportation professionals. I believe in a collaborative therapeutic relationship where we work together to uncover your inner strength and create a path towards wholeness.
If you experience any of these symptoms—hyperarousal, irritability, chronic fatigue, chronic shame, overeating, substance abuse, difficulties trusting others or yourself, trouble relating to others, avoidance of certain situations or memories, or physical symptoms like tightness in your shoulders, jaw, or stomach—you may be dealing with the aftermath of abuse.
I specialize in helping individuals who are victims of abuse. However, if your relationship involves active emotional or physical abuse, and one partner is predominantly abusive, individual counseling for each of you may be more suitable. My approach is most effective when both partners have experienced abuse but are not in an antagonistic dynamic where one person is the primary abuser.

Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In the intricate tapestry of our lives, the pursuit of happiness, safety, and love is a universal quest. Yet, for many, the journey toward emotional wellness is fraught with challenges beyond their control. Trauma, familial history, and the burdens of life can cast shadows that obscure life's inherent beauty. I believe that each individual deserves to uncover, rediscover, and reclaim life's joy and purpose.
As a compassionate and dedicated psychoanalytical therapist, I aim to guide you through this transformative process with warmth and understanding. Through welcoming and conversational counseling services, I aim to create a space where you can explore the intricate connections between your mind, body, and spirit. This holistic approach seeks to assist you in reconnecting with your higher purpose, allowing you to navigate life unburdened by emotional pain.

Mason Greenwood
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC, NCC
I believe everyone deserves the opportunity to heal and achieve their personal goals. I truly value the counseling experience and find that individuals who are open to it make the most progress. I firmly believe that therapy is a collaborative effort, and the more you invest in it, the more you get out of it. My approach is all about finding the right balance between validating experiences, increasing awareness, and challenging you to grow from it all. My clients describe me as supportive, reliable, thought-provoking, and funny. I consider each characteristic to be of great value in counseling.
I aim to create a safe space that encourages trust, openness, reflection, and the courage to challenge yourself in your pursuit of personal growth. I use various methods such as trauma-focused, Adlerian, humanistic, and other therapeutic approaches, which are personalized to each client's needs.
It can be difficult making the first step in starting counseling. By taking interest in the possibility of counseling, you are already halfway there. It’s okay to have questions or not know about services. I will meet you where you are on your journey, and we will work together on how to continue growth and healing.

Terry Turner
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC
Everyone should be encouraged to work through any problem or issue they face with the right person to achieve the best outcome. With my support, I look forward to helping you become strong again. I help clients set goals, track progress, feel supported, get feedback, and be appreciated for their hard work, skills, and talents. My work experience is vast and wide-ranging. For example, I have spent many years in the military (VFW), police department, and elite sports competition, supporting individuals as they dealt with career development, performance improvement, addiction, mental illness, and crisis.
My clients describe me as generous, motivational, and dedicated to improving their lives. I'm here as a resource to discuss your needs, and I am fully committed to helping you overcome your struggles. My style is practical, reality-based, and evidenced-based. I treat clients and families with dignity and respect, ensuring a positive atmosphere for growth.
Everyone, regardless of their background or circumstances, is encouraged to address and work through any problem or issue they are facing. If you allow me to join your therapeutic journey, you will be met with honest, forward-thinking discussions so that we can uncover the best approach to helping you achieve the brightest future imaginable.

Nefertiti Nowell
Therapist, Dr.
While a person can feel better after a good talk with a friend or relative, for moderate or severe emotional distress, this relief is only temporary. Talking with a trained listener helps alleviate emotional distress for good. The clinicians in our practice are trained and ready to help you.
