Jenna Labbe-Watson
Psychologist, Psy. D.
Together we get underneath the thoughts and the words so you can process what needs healing. I help you connect with your body, your emotions, and your intuition so you can metabolize and integrate your experiences and feel more free, more alive. Sometimes in your therapy we move slow and sometimes we move fast. Sometimes we laugh and sometimes we cry. The trust and safety we develop in the therapeutic relationship help you go wherever you need to go so you can feel more whole.

Odom Psychological Services
Psychologist, PsyD
I am a licensed psychologist who works with adolescents and adults. My clinical approach is direct, collaborative, and practical. I want clients to understand what is contributing to their difficulties and leave therapy with skills they can use in their everyday lives.
My background includes clinical and forensic psychology settings. I have worked with people experiencing trauma, emotional dysregulation, behavioral problems, interpersonal difficulties, and a range of other mental health concerns. That experience has made me attentive to the broader context of a person’s life rather than focusing only on symptoms or diagnostic labels.
In therapy, I primarily use cognitive-behavioral and dialectical behavior therapy approaches. I adapt treatment based on the person in front of me, their goals, and what appears to be maintaining the problem. I tend to work well with clients who want an active therapist and who are willing to look closely at patterns in their emotions, behavior, relationships, and coping.
I value straightforward communication and a strong working relationship. I also use humor when it fits the person and the situation. My role is to help clients make sense of what they are experiencing, identify where change is possible, and build strategies that are useful outside of the therapy session.

Michael Berry
Psychologist, PhD
My ideal client is looking for practical support overcoming problems with binge-eating, insomnia, anxiety, depression, or distress caused by a medical condition. As your psychologist, my first goal is to provide a supportive, non-judgmental, and collaborative space where you can feel comfortable openly sharing your struggles. Together, we’ll identify your goals, figure out what’s getting in the way of change, and develop practical steps to move forward. I regularly measure progress to ensure therapy is focused and effective, helping you feel better while gaining insight and skills to maintain your progress long after therapy ends.
