Melanie Bettes
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC, Coach
Therapy should be as unique as you are. As a therapist, I try to make sure you feel as comfortable as you need to feel in order to discuss the difficult stuff. I draw from my previous career, my education, and my own lived experience in order to make a connection with you, and help you be comfortable. I love to just have a conversation with my clients, getting to know who they are and how their challenges affect them, and subsequently, how to best approach each challenge to address it most effectively.

Alicia Polk
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC, BC-TMH, CCTP-II
One of my greatest joys is to see my people growing, healing, and living their lives more fully. My people know better than anyone else what is right for them, which means it is crucial for me to work collaboratively with them. A core belief of mine is that healing from trauma should not require people to relive their traumas; I do not focus on trauma details in my work with people. I am neurodivergent (ADHD), have a neurodiverse family (ADHD, autism) and I welcome working with people who are also neurodivergent. Additionally, I am an ally of the LGBTQ community and have a child who is trans. In a world that so often feels unsafe and uncaring, I strive to provide a place of safety where people are heard, seen, and accepted.

Dr. Abrielle Conway, Rooted in Grace Psychological Services
Psychologist, Psy.D., Licensed Psychologist
Hi, I'm a licensed psychologist who is passionate about improving women's mental health, addressing sources of anxiety/stress, perfectionism, grief/loss, and trauma. I'm sensitive to the unique challenges women face, particularly related to societal expectations of wives/ mothers, women in the workforce, and other social organizations (like church). Women often come to me when they have exhausted all of their resources and are at the end of the rope in managing their anxiety and stress. I often hear that despite a strong desire to break through their circumstances, they often feel overwhelmed and stuck. They share that they need practical, hands-on strategies to help them overcome their problems.
I take a highly collaborative approach in our work, meaning that while I give clients necessary information to make an educated decision, clients are in control of their treatment throughout the entire process.
To get a feel for my style, I've included several pieces of feedback I've heard from clients who have enjoyed working with me:
1. "You see me and you hear me. I'm not alone anymore. This is the first time I've felt so understood."
2. "You are a safe place to just be myself with all my imperfections. I don't have to worry about putting on a mask."
3. "You give me practical tools to help me deal with my problems. I've made so much more progress in working with you over the past month than I did with my last therapist in years."

Bill Hoekstra
Psychologist, Psy.D., LP DBSM
Sleep troubles and emotional challenges can be overwhelming. Getting the right help shouldn't add to your stress. I am passionate about improving sleep and mood for my clients! I'm a board-certified diplomate specializing in sleep disorders. I also specialize in the treatment of psychological trauma, anxiety, depression, and personality issues.
For sleep issues, I focus on evidence-based approaches, including CBT-I, a gold-standard therapy that effectively addresses insomnia, nightmares, and sleep routine disruptions.
For trauma, anxiety, and depression, I offer effective treatments such as:
CBT: This well-established therapy provides valuable skills for managing negative thoughts and behaviors.
A.R.T. (Accelerated Resolution Therapy): This evidence-based approach helps process and resolve troubling experiences efficiently.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing): This therapy can help alleviate the emotional impact of trauma or other distressful events.
