Julia Cannon
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW
As a therapist, my goal is to build a nurturing and inclusive environment where you feel genuinely heard and valued. In my practice, I’m dedicated to helping you navigate your challenges with a blend of evidence-based therapies and a holistic perspective. I use Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and mindfulness techniques, along with Liberation Health Theory, to support your personal growth. Whether you’re dealing with body image issues, relationship struggles, depression/anxiety, navigating neurodivergence, or trauma, my goal is to empower you to embrace your true self and make meaningful progress. I’m here to meet you where you are and guide you through your journey. I often use humor in our sessions to help make things feel a bit more relaxed. It’s all about finding a balance—supporting you through challenges while keeping things approachable. Nobody wants to feel like they’re talking to a wall! I show up authentically in sessions, hoping that you can too. I frequently discuss the effects of capitalism on mental health, acknowledging how it often exacerbates stress and inequality. We all need help navigating a system that undervalues rest and self-care. Understanding that systemic structures influence our lives, I strive to be a thoughtful ally, continually educating myself to offer the most supportive and empathetic care possible. I prioritize creating a supportive environment where authenticity and humor are key, making our sessions both effective and approachable. My goal is to guide you through your journey towards greater self-confidence and growth, meeting you wherever you are. If you're ready to take the next step in self-discovery and growth, let’s connect and see how we can work together. Book your first session with me today by visiting my website!

Join the Rebellion (JTR23 Inc)
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Life is tough. If you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or out of rhythm by the complexity and challenges life may present; I can and will help you. My name is Damon Neely. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and veteran who is most passionate about helping men navigate the challenges of 21st century manhood. I specialize in working with young-adult and middle-aged men struggling with anxiety and depressive symptoms related to past, present, and future stressors, or events. I left the managed care industry after six years to pursue a full-time career in mental health counseling. My pursuit in growing my practice has fulfilled my lifelong desire to help others. I had a desire to make an impact helping others from early childhood. I was the youngest of seven children and I believe that through that experience I developed the power of observation and curiosity. Those traits are fundamental to being a good therapist as well as a good client.
I have an existential focus in my practice that presumes that all individuals seek meaning, purpose, and self-actualization. I believe that anxiety and depression are symptoms that derive from a lack of meaning and purpose. I address men’s issues including perfectionism, unrealistic expectations, feelings of failure, low self-worth, self-acceptance, values towards life decisions, relational issues towards spouse/partner, social skills, anger management, emotional regulation, role specification, fatherhood, meaning/purpose, and identity. Moreover, I am a prior service veteran and I enjoy collaborating with veterans as they transition and adjust to civilian life.
My integrative approach is designed to help you achieve your goals/objectives and shine insight onto whatever issues are troubling you. Ultimately, I believe you are on a journey towards, self-compassion, self-acceptance, self-worth, and authenticity. Even though I am trained in several theoretical orientation, my best traits include empathy, compassion, and being non-judgmental.

They might be searching for a deeper sense of self-worth or seeking to understand and embrace their identity. I am eager to work with individuals whose goals are to find clarity, healing, and a renewed sense of direction. I also appreciate working with individuals who want to work through their past experiences and current difficulties to build a life that feels more authentic and fulfilling.

Leslie Bowman, Holistic Psychotherapist
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LPC, Over 18 years of successful experience
Open to a more holistic approach to therapy? Feel lost? Feel stuck? Having a hard time coping with a recent trauma? Going through a life transition?

My unique approach addresses the body, mind, and soul as they are all connected in the healing process. I have over 18 years of experience in helping clients with relationship issues, personal growth, trauma, loss, anxiety, depression, ADHD, addiction, abuse, eating disorders, personality disorders and career development. In addition to my MA, I have studied neuroscience, nutrition and epigenetics. I am passionate in making a difference in the lives of my clients.
