Margaret Shouse
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
It is really easy to let all the negative thoughts consume you and make you feel like there is no way out. It can feel overwhelming or even debilitating to feel as though you are not able to get out of a negative spiral and somehow find joy and contentment in life. Trust me, I have been there. This is why in our sessions I will always bring warmth, compassion, and sometimes a touch of humor to make it feel more comfortable and relaxed. Seeking out therapy takes a lot of courage and awareness of your struggles and that will never go unnoticed. I am here to meet you where you are at in this moment and to work together to make your life how you want it to be.

Rachel Honaker, Depth Counseling Services
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I started working with clients 10 years ago while in grad school. I also became a client 10 years ago! Over the years as I’ve worked on both sides of the proverbial couch, I’ve learned that therapy can look different depending on who I am sitting with. Because it is who you are and what you bring that helps shape the space. There is no “one size fits all” therapy approach, it’s about YOU. That can be intimidating, and that’s why I’m here. No matter who you are, where you’re at, and what you bring, we’re going to co-create a space where you get to meaningfully connect with yourself and the people in your life by putting your needs and wellbeing front and center.

Chris Scarberry
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
I co-own Healing Reflections Therapy: Diversity, Trauma, and Wellness Services with my partner Megan Garza. We each have over twenty-five years of experience working as therapists. We integrate those values into everything we do. I love the work that I do and especially enjoy helping to empower clients and help them to make their therapy goals and dreams a reality. I have a genuine and transparent approach with clients. I balance active listening with interpretations and feedback, while treating therapy as a fluid, nuanced conversation. I meet people where they are at and am informed, open and affirming of LGBTQ+ identities, chronic illness, kink and non-monogamous relationship dynamics. I welcome clients from all walks of life and marginalized communities. I enjoy meeting with people from a variety of spiritual backgrounds, atheists, Christians, Muslims, Jewish people etc, but do not reference mine or impose any spiritual agenda with my clients. In short, we only talk about it if it's important to you. My Masters Degree is in Clinical Psychology with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy which enables me to skillfully work with individuals, couples, and adult family members. I view treatment as both of us collaboratively working toward your goals, utilizing your own insights and strengths as a basis for further development.
