Taj Maddox
Counselor/Therapist, Associate Professional Counselor
You’ve spent a lot of your life being the strong one. Maybe you’ve learned to push through difficult emotions because slowing down never felt like an option. Maybe you’re the person everyone depends on, yet you struggle to feel deeply known, supported, or chosen in your relationships. If you’re exhausted from holding everything together, caught in perfectionism or people-pleasing, or stuck in the same relationship patterns, you don’t have to keep pushing through. Therapy can offer a soft, safe place to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and build relationships that feel more connected and fulfilling.
Taj is an Associate Professional Counselor under the supervision of Dr. Latrice Love, LPC-S (LPC009331).

Charonda P. Gardner
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, CPCS
I work with individuals to heal and recover from childhood trauma, codependency, people pleasing, self-abandonment, poor boundaries, and low self-worth. I especially enjoy working with those who identify as Empath or Highly Sensitive, those who have experienced an “awakening”, those attempting to understand their purpose, and those in search of their authentic selves. I also enjoy working with other therapists, helpers, and healers as a therapist supervisor and consultant.

Roderic Burks - Integrative Mental Health
Licensed Mental Health 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.

Rabia Subhani
Psychologist, Psy.D.
As a late-diagnosed ADHD neuropsychologist, I am happy to offer neuro-affirming evaluations for adults seeking assessment for autism and/or ADHD. My goal is to assess you in your own safe space while I am in mine! Testing sessions and reports are strengths-based, focusing on your unique neurotype instead of pathologizing traits. My hope is that you will feel seen, heard, and appreciated - it is my honor to hold this space for you.

Dr. Allison Williams
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I specialize in helping those who are anxious and overwhelmed learn to recognize and honor their needs - it may mean: giving yourself permission to slow down, scale back, set healthy boundaries, go after what you truly want, and be yourself (authentically and unapologetically). As your partner on this journey, I’ll help you muster your strength, foster your self-acceptance, and feel more at ease.
If you’ve always cast aside your own needs to give everyone and everything your all, I want to help you finally get what you deserve: better relationships, self-care, and greater life satisfaction.
