Amy L. Holdbrooks, LLC
Counselor/Therapist, MA, NCC, ALC, BSW
Many believe expressing your feelings is a sign of weakness, creating a stigma surrounding mental health. However, the exact opposite is true! Knowing when to ask for help shows courage, strength, and wisdom. Physical and emotional health are tightly intertwined. When we know precisely what is wrong, we can face the problem head-on, allowing us to see firsthand that knowledge is power!
I was first introduced to depression and anxiety through a wiry, slightly rumpled, highly cantankerous psychology professor when I was only 19 years old. I will never forget that lecture as long as I live. As he presented the 'day’s topic,' he peered intently around the room as if he could read our very thoughts. Then, he threw down his book and left the room without warning, leaving us there in stunned silence. After what seemed like an hour (probably only five minutes), he returned with 25 lb. weights strapped to each arm and leg and a pack filled with two 50 lbs. fastened to his back. As he began to lecture, he proceeded to pace up and down each row of the classroom. He was not a young man, and as he talked, he became winded and was forced to stop and catch his breath. He was an excellent orator, by history, but on this day, he seemed entirely out of his comfort zone. He was confused, preoccupied, stressed, and somewhat fragile. As the class concluded and we began to slowly make our way to the door, the professor said, “Oh, and by the way, living with depression and anxiety is much like trying to do a simple daily task with over 200 lbs. of weight strapped to your very soul. Now, go and have a good evening.”
Having struggled with depression and anxiety throughout my adult life, and now as a counselor, I will have to say that the professor’s illustration was prophetically spot on! In fact, it was brilliant!

David Houston Murphy
Psychologist, PhD, LP, PSYPACT
As an autistic psychologist in Colorado, I personally understand many of the personal challenges my neurodivergent (ASD/autism, ADHD, learning abilities) clients are facing. I excel by helping you get clarity about your current challenges through psychological testing and what next steps and recommendations may be helpful after testing is completed. Through therapy, I often help clients come to terms with a new diagnosis, unmask, understand differences between neurotypical and neurodivergent approaches, and come to accept your identity as a neurodivergent person.

Cindy Yu
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Cindy Yu is a bilingual (English and Mandarin Chinese) Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the states of Florida, Alabama, and Illinois. She is well-trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy, solution-focused therapy, Bowen’s theory, Gottman Method, CBT, and more. Cindy believes that each client is comprised of unique yet charismatic components such as personal upbringings, religious beliefs, and cultural backgrounds, that all contribute to narrate a cohesive personal story. This fundamental ideology has cultivated her into offering her clients unconditional positive regard and respect, while tailoring her treatment orientations to better serve each client’s individuality. Her passion is to help individuals, couples, and families to understand the misunderstood, to discover hope from the hopelessness, to speak the unspoken, and to seek possibilities through the impossible. Cindy also has a background in the medical field where she has obtained a strong foundational knowledge for medical diagnosis and medications. She understands the intricacy between medical burden and mental health.

Alan Jacobson, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, Nationally Registered Health Service Provider
I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years of experience working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families to create meaningful, measurable change in how they feel, function, and relate to others. My approach is evidence-based, empathic, and solution-focused, with therapy centered on helping you achieve clear goals so that progress is noticeable in daily life. I work with a wide range of concerns—including anxiety, low mood, loss, self-doubt, and life transitions—and have particular expertise in performance psychology, public speaking anxiety, panic attacks, fear of flying, and questions of purpose or meaning. If you’re unsure whether therapy is the right next step, I also offer a one-time consultation assessment to help clarify what may be contributing to your current stress and identify effective pathways forward, whether through therapy or other strategies.
