Ben Hedberg
Licensed Professional Counselor, MC, LPC, BCC
Life doesn’t always go how we planned. You might be dealing with stress, relationship issues, a loss of direction, or just feeling off and not sure why.
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and Board-Certified Life Coach with over 25 years of experience helping men navigate some of life’s toughest challenges. My approach is straightforward, supportive, and focused on real progress—not just talking, but creating meaningful change.
I specialize in working with men facing issues like major life transitions (divorce, career changes, loss of purpose), stress and anger management, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, sexual concerns, addiction, and low motivation or self-esteem. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just know something needs to change, I provide a space to get clear, rebuild confidence, and move forward with purpose.
If you’re considering getting support, I offer a free 15-minute consultation to answer your questions and see if we’re a good fit. You don’t have to have everything figured out before reaching out—sometimes a simple conversation is the first step toward getting back on track.

Shannon Gorres
Life Coach, MDiv, MA
Life has a way of shaping us through both beauty and heartbreak. I deeply understand anger, anxiety, and existential dilemmas. My own journey has been one of profound feeling, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to growth.
Growth begins when we are willing to meet ourselves with honesty, curiosity, and care. For two decades I cultivated knowledge and skills to help others move through intense emotional pain, life transitions, and spiritual questions with greater clarity, resilience, and purpose. I faced seasons that tested everything I thought I knew. Healing from a narcissistic relationship, navigating a challenging postpartum year, grieving the loss of my mother, and embracing unexpected identity changes~ this all became part of my awakening. These experiences- combined with years of dedicated study and personal reflection- have deepened my compassion and understanding of the healing process. My work honors both the unique human spirit and the sacredness woven into everyday life.
Today, as a Master of Divinity and Certified Nature and Forest Therapy Guide, I help people reconnect with their true selves, cultivate emotional healing, and explore a deeper relationship with the Divine. My work is grounded in authenticity, empathy, and meaningful transformation.
The values guiding my life are integrity, compassion, and wholehearted depth. I'd love to learn what values are leading you on your journey today.

Dr. Nichole Vincent
Psychologist, PsyD
Not your typical therapist. No passive nods, no distant “mm-hmm” moments.
You deserve a space where you can be your unfiltered self, explore your thoughts, and make meaningful progress without feeling like you're talking to a blank wall. That’s where I come in.
Think of our sessions like catching up with a good friend over your favorite drink. I’ll ask how your week’s been, what book has you hooked, or how that recent trip turned out, not out of obligation, but because I genuinely care. I’m here to celebrate your wins, sit with you in the tough moments, and challenge the narratives that keep you stuck. And when needed? I’ll give you the honest, compassionate feedback that helps you move forward.
Clients often tell me they feel instantly at ease with me, like they can finally breathe. I bring warmth, humor, and a down-to-earth approach that makes the therapy room feel like a safe, inviting space where vulnerability is welcome. No judgment. No pretense. Just real talk, real growth, and real support.
I believe you are the expert of your own life, my job is to help you see that, own it, and step into the life you deserve.
