Dr. Adam Sattler
Psychologist, PhD, LP
I’m a clinical psychologist who works with adults, with a particular focus on men’s mental health. My style is straightforward and collaborative. I take an active role in sessions, offering feedback and helping you think through difficult questions. My aim is for our conversations to lead to a clearer understanding of yourself and useful changes in how you live and relate to other people.

Join the Rebellion (JTR23 Inc)
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
My name is Damon Neely. I have been a therapist since 2012. I didn't come to this work through a straightforward path. Before I was a therapist, I was a U.S. Marine — trained to project strength, suppress what's underneath, and keep moving regardless of what I was carrying. That orientation served me in a lot of contexts. It also cost me things I didn't fully understand until later.
When I transitioned out and eventually found my way into healthcare and then into clinical mental health work, I brought that background with me — not as a credential to display, but as a lived reference point. I know what it's like to operate in high-pressure environments where vulnerability is a liability. I know what it costs to perform competence while something quieter is going on underneath. And I know how unfamiliar it feels to sit across from someone and actually say what's true.
That's the man I built my practice around. Not because it's a profitable niche — though it is — but because I understand him from the inside. The high-performer who has optimized everything in his life except his relationship with himself. The man who can hold a room but can't quiet the voice in his head. The man who takes meticulous care of everyone except himself. These aren't abstract client profiles to me. They're men I recognize.
Over two decades in healthcare and eleven years in clinical practice have sharpened how I work, but the core of it hasn't changed: I believe most men are carrying more than they've ever said out loud, and that saying it — to the right person, in the right space — changes something fundamental. Not just symptom relief. Something deeper. A shift in how a man understands himself and what he believes he deserves.
That's what I show up to do.

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.
