Tim Jenkins
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
We are a group of creative and dynamic counselors. My name is Tim Jenkins and I lead a group of friendly approachable counselors. We have a knack for helping people feel comfortable right away and train as a group every Friday on how to be more approachable. We are genuinely curious about people and what drives them and makes them feel happy. As a group, our life experiences are key to making us into the humans we are and that is important for our clients. We take personal development as seriously as we take our counseling and bring an incredible range and tool box to our meetings. With over 26 years of helping people, they have taught me how to help others to be happy in the best ways.

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.

MJB Wellness LLC
Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnotherapist and Coach, Certified Sexological Bodyworker, Sex Educator, Certified Reiki
Most people have something in their lives that they would like to change, whether it's to lose weight, quit smoking, get rid of some phobia or habit that is holding them back. Often these things seem too difficult to change. Most people never think about hypnosis as an option, their knowledge limited to stage shows or movies where hypnosis and mind control play a part. Modern hypnosis is a widely recognized practice that has helped millions of people overcome all kind of challenges. I started my practice with a focus on sexuality and that still forms a large part of my what I do, working with people with ED, PE, lack of desire, inability to orgasm, assisting them in enhancing their erotic lives, experiencing more pleasure, removing mental and emotional block that interfere with accessing their full sexual potential. I have expanded into medical hypnosis, removing symptoms of seemingly incurable conditions when doctors have given up on their patients and helping people deal with chronic pain. I've studied "Hypno-Oncology" enabling me to support patients on their Cancer journey, helping with pain, depression, and the various side effects of Cancer treatment. Studies have shown that Hypnosis can strengthen the immune system, lower blood pressure, among many other things. I have worked with many clients who had been in therapy for decades and were unable to get relief from their issues only to completely overcome them in one or two sessions of hypnosis. Certainly, in our stressful times hypnosis has become the go to treatment for anxiety of all sorts. If there is anything in your life you would like to change contact me and let's discuss how we might work to get the life you want.
