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.

Dr. Cynthia Edwards-Hawver
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Are you a high-functioning, driven mom who’s often managing it all—career, family, relationships—but finding yourself feeling exhausted, stretched thin, and unsure of how to prioritize yourself? I get it. With over 25 years of experience as a licensed psychologist and certified coach, I specialize in supporting women like you: high-achieving moms balancing both career success and the intense demands of parenting, often while navigating other challenges like anxiety, depression, burnout, toxic relationships, divorce, and/or grief.
I bring a compassionate, practical approach that includes both therapy and coaching and therapeutic tools. I take a holistic approach where we will focus on every part of your life and encorporate actionable steps for reclaiming control, reconnecting with your needs, and rebuilding energy and joy. We'll work together to develop a plan that empowers you to prioritize your mental health and establish boundaries so you can show up fully for both yourself and others without guilt.
And if you’re ready to dive deeper, I offer hypnosis services, designed to help you break through patterns that may be holding you back. Hypnosis offers an effective way to explore issues like burnout, anxiety, or decision-making, providing clarity and relief in a deeply relaxed state. I will tailor the hypnosis to match your specific need.
It’s time to care for yourself with the same commitment you give others. Reach out, and together, we can carve a path to a renewed, empowered life.

Karen Baumstark, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., CMHIMP, CTACC
In searching for a therapist, you are taking the first step in what could be the most important journey of your life. It is definitely possible to make important, lasting improvements in your life and levels of happiness, satisfaction, and success. Therapy is often an effective way to attain these goals. With almost 40 years of experience working as a counselor and then a psychologist, I am well-qualified to help you identify what is standing in the way of increased life satisfaction, and help you effectively work towards your goals. People often get stuck in old patterns that make them unhappy, want to change them, but don't know how. I work together with my clients to understand how old patterns in thought, feeling, and behavior got established, and then explore how best to change those patterns. I enjoy doing longer term, deeper work with clients, to create significant, meaningful, and lasting change. I often employ a holistic approach, exploring personal history, thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and relationship history and issues, as well as issues including medical history, self-care habits, and experiences of spirituality. I view the therapy relationship as a partnership, respecting the pace and timing that the client requires.
