Kristen Jackson Banister
Counselor/Therapist, M.A. LPC SEP
My approach to therapy is somatic, holistic, and relational. This means we don’t just talk about your challenges—we work with how they live in your body, your nervous system, and your patterns of relating to yourself, to the world, to the people around you.
I help people move through anxiety, depression, self esteem struggles, trauma, and other life challenges by helping them to reconnect with their internal sense of clarity and stability. Together, we create space for you to slow down, feel supported, and begin to respond to life with more choice and self-trust. Therapy with me is warm, engaged, and grounded in real change—not just insight.

Jennifer L Abel
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I have spent decades devoted to specializing in the treatment of anxiety. Worried? I am an expert at treating generalized anxiety disorder (GAD; the worry disorder). I'm also great at treating panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), insomnia, phobias, work stress, performance anxiety, depression and social anxiety. But you can talk to me about anything. For a sample of what I do, check me out on YouTube.

Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counselor, MS, CMHC, CLC
Life can feel so heavy when anxiety won’t let your mind rest, when fear wakes you at night, or when stress and self-doubt erode your confidence and faith. When burnout creeps in and relationships begin to crack, holding it all together can start to feel overwhelming.
At Rising Calm Center, we understand that weight. Our Christian counselors help young professionals, couples, and families find calm, rebuild trust, and walk in the peace Jesus promised—rather than performing under the pressures this world demands.
We integrate faith-based wisdom with evidence-based care, drawing from CBT, DBT, IFS, ACT, Gottman, EFT, Narrative Therapy, trauma-informed work, tapping, and breathwork. This combination helps you retrain your nervous system, heal emotional and spiritual wounds, and live with genuine peace.
Clients often come to us struggling with anxiety, insomnia, panic attacks, grief, burnout, relationship conflict, or a sense of spiritual disconnection. Here, you’ll find compassion, honesty, and practical tools to feel safe in your body and centered in your spirit again.
What we offer:
• Free consultations for new clients — relief can start now
• Same-week availability, including evenings (Mon–Thu until 8 p.m.)
• Sliding-scale rates for affordable care
• In-person, telehealth, or phone sessions
You don’t have to face the storm alone. There is calm on the other side—and together, we can find it.

Kelsey Ellis
Psychologist, Ph.D., LCP
Many of the women I work with are capable, caring, and used to holding everything together, even when it comes at the cost of their own bandwidth. From the outside, life may look steady, but internally there can be tension, exhaustion, or a quiet sense of disconnection. I offer trauma informed, relational therapy for women who are ready to understand themselves more deeply and find a way of living that feels more sustainable. My work is grounded in attachment and nervous system awareness, and I approach therapy as a collaborative process rooted in genuine conversation rather than quick fixes. If you are looking for a space where you can show up honestly and feel met as a whole person, I invite you to connect for a consultation.
