Shelly Melroe
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Get in touch to schedule a free intro conversation!
I've had a wide range of work and life experiences before coming into therapy. I bring all of that to serve your need. I've stopped fragmenting myself into what I'm 'supposed to be' to do any particular job in favor of being all of me so I can support you being all of you - not treating you like a machine that needs to be fixed or optimized. Whatever you are experiencing developed naturally from life lived AND you can develop right on through to something more true to you.
Please contact me to set up a complimentary introductory session so you can get a feel for what it's like working with me. I look forward to hearing from you!

Carolynn Hanzal
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LICSW
Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, burnout, or big life changes take hold. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to find strategies that work for you. I enjoy helping my clients find creative and exciting ways to knock down the barriers.
Outside of work, I love spending time with animals and attending concerts. I bring the same compassion, curiosity, and warmth into my sessions, helping you feel more confident, resilient, and connected to the life you want to live.

Restored Counseling & Wellness Center, PLLC
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPC, NMD
Your brain, body, and relationships were designed to work for you — not against you. At Restored, we believe healing is about more than symptom management. It's about reclaiming your sense of self, rebuilding connection, and growing into the life and purpose you were meant for. Our therapists and naturopathic doctors share a deep commitment to treating the whole person — because sustainable restoration requires addressing mind, body, spirit, and relationships together.

Peter Hoistad
Drug and Alcohol Counselor, LADC
I have experience working with a very diverse set of individuals over the course of my career in the mental health field. Most individuals I work with struggle with issues that are considered dual diagnosis, or individuals that struggle with both mental health and substance use issues. I have experience working with all different ages, ethnicities, sexual orientation, mental health issues, and substance use preferences. I also come from a lens of years of lived experiences and being able to offer a lens of "coming out the other side." I provide an empathetic atmosphere that is goal orientated, and comes from an unbiased lens.

Know Thyself Healing & Therapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LICSW, LPCC, LGSW
Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, trauma, family changes, or emotional struggles that leave them feeling stuck or unsure of themselves. If you’ve been carrying these challenges on your own, you’re not alone.
As both a therapist and the founder of Know Thyself Healing & Therapy, I believe healing happens in safe, honest, and supportive relationships. My own journey—through adoption, trauma, parenting a child with mental health challenges, divorce, remarriage, and spiritual growth—deeply informs the way I show up for clients with compassion, understanding, and respect.
While I work directly with many clients, I also lead a team of dedicated clinicians who share this same commitment. Together, we create a space where you can feel truly seen, build insight, and develop the skills needed to move forward. Whether you work with me or another member of our team, our goal is the same: to help you reconnect with your strengths and create meaningful, lasting change.
