Roderic Burks - Integrative Mental Health
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, MS HSc, MA, LMHC, LPC
I believe therapy is a space for deep, meaningful change—not just symptom relief. My work is grounded in a parts-based practice, depth psychology, and a trauma-informed lens, helping clients explore the aspects of themselves shaped by past experiences, relationships, and unconscious patterns. I approach this process with curiosity, compassion, and respect for your unique story.
I specialize in working with trauma recovery, mood disorders, depression, anxiety, codependency, and relationship issues. I view these challenges not simply as problems to eliminate, but as signals pointing toward deeper patterns that deserve attention and care. Together, we create a space where all parts of you are welcome—especially those that have been overworked, hidden, or misunderstood.
My goal is to help you develop greater self-awareness, inner balance, and a more authentic relationship with yourself and others.

Carey Luker
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC, LPC
What makes my therapy practice unique is the genuine care, compassion, and connection I bring to each client. I strive to create a space where people feel safe, comfortable, and truly heard without fear of judgment. My approach is warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative, helping clients feel supported while working through anxiety, stress, life transitions, burnout, relationship challenges, and personal growth. I work with adults of all ages, including college students, young adults, and individuals navigating career changes or uncertain seasons of life. I tailor therapy to each person’s individual needs and goals using evidence-based, trauma-informed, and neurodivergent-affirming practices rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Above all, I want clients to feel understood, supported, and reminded that they do not have to navigate life’s challenges alone.

Scott Hubener
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHC
There can be moments in our lives where situations, relationships, or life events are impacting our ability to manage. I specialize in helping people experiencing challenges that may have led to feelings of depression, anxiety, communication challenges, and relationship issues. It is courageous to take the first step and I want to respect and honor the vulnerability that comes with the process of beginning counseling. I assure you that there is hope and that change is possible.
Each client brings their own inherent strengths and experiences to the counseling process that allow them to achieve success. Your journey is unique, and I am excited to share the process of discovery and growth with you. I am excited for you to begin the journey! Together we can identify your goals and implement an approach to help you gain the skills and tools to better mangage stressors and challenges.
