Melanie Collins
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC, LCMHC, Coach
Therapy with me is collaborative, practical, and refreshingly human. I bring extensive experience in relationships, sexuality, trauma, and neurodivergence, along with a genuine curiosity about what makes each person tick. You won’t find judgment, canned advice, or a one-size-fits-all approach here. Instead, we’ll make sense of the patterns that keep showing up, explore what’s underneath them, and find strategies that actually fit your life. If you’re looking for a therapist who can handle complicated conversations, appreciate nuance, and help you create meaningful change while still being a real person in the room, we may be a great fit.

Kristina Young
Therapist, LCMFT
Anxiety, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), panic, and trauma symptoms prevent those who live with them from getting to fully inhabit their lives. Forever stuck in a mental movie of either a catastrophic, imagined future or an irredeemably tarnished past, you're forced to erect a living at the margins of your life, perpetually trying to protect and perfect a life you never get to actually live. I know this from both firsthand and professional experience. It is, therefore, my great privilege to support individuals who live with these conditions to return to living as they have always wanted to- that is, fully...imperfectly...thoroughly, and free.

Kirk Shelton
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
I approach therapy as a practical and relational process rather than a set of techniques. People usually come in when long-standing ways of coping no longer fit their current life, even if those strategies once made sense. My work focuses on understanding how those patterns developed, how they continue to function, and how they can be reorganized in ways that support greater flexibility and self-direction. Change matters to me as it shows up in how a person lives, relates, and responds outside the therapy space.

Merritt Leonhardt
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSCSW, CDWF, MCLC
I am drawn to raw unfiltered courage. Going to therapy a brave choice and it takes tenacity and grit to feel differently and make changes in our lives. When we deny our stories, they define us. When we own our stories, we become the author who writes the brave new ending. Together we will examine the thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that are holding you back identify the new choices and practices that will move you toward more authentic and wholehearted living. Rarely is that decision a whim or an impulse, and most likely you've been thinking about this for a while. Now here you are; being curious and maybe nervous and scared at the same time. In my opinion - that is bravery and brave things are rarely comfortable, but always worth trying.
Whether you are looking to make a shift in your relationships, provide help and guidance for your children, or you have reached a point in your own life where you no longer want to "figure it out alone"- you have come to a good place to get moving. It can get better.
We all struggle at times - with anxiety, depression, and stress - along with the circumstances in our lives that contribute to these feelings. The "feelings" themselves are never wrong. Where we get into trouble (and can feel stuck in them) is when we can't make sense of it all and isolation creeps in. You're not in this alone.
