Narrative
Kevin Jones
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, NEC
I believe therapy should be a place where people can be honest without feeling judged, rushed, or pathologized for what they are going through. My goal is to help clients better understand themselves, make sense of the patterns that keep them stuck, and move toward real change rather than just temporary relief. I work to create a space that is warm, grounded, and direct, where clients can feel supported while also being challenged in helpful ways. Whether someone is struggling with anxiety, OCD, relationship issues, or simply feeling overwhelmed by life, I aim to offer therapy that is thoughtful, practical, and genuinely meaningful.

Courtney Crooks
Psychologist, PhD, CTMH, CCTP
I am a licensed psychologist in private practice, with over 20 years of professional experience in psychological research and clinical practice. I specialize in psychodynamic/psychoanalytic psychotherapy for individual adults ages 18+. I can help you understand the underlying basis of your conflicts, then guide you on your journey toward meaningful, positive change according to your needs and goals. I will work with you to develop a customized psychotherapy plan depending on your specific needs and goals, which may include session packages that are intentionally short-term (12-16 sessions) or long-term (1-2 sessions per week spanning some months). I am a military veteran, and have received specialized training related to military and veteran's issues, so I also welcome persons from the military and veteran communities as prospective patients. I hold professional certifications in Clinical Telemental Health Provider (CTMH) and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) through Evergreen Certifications, and an Authorization to Practice Interjurisdictional Telepsychology (APIT) from the PSYPACT Commission.

Taylor Esworthy
Marriage and Family Therapist, PLMFT
Hi, I’m Taylor! If you’ve found your way here, something in your life might feel heavier than it looks on the outside. Maybe you’re showing up for everyone else while running on empty, feeling stuck in relationship patterns, or navigating a transition that’s left you unsure of who you are. In therapy, you don’t have to have it all together, you just get to be human. I work with teens, adults, couples, and families to create a space where you feel supported, understood, and able to move toward meaningful, lasting change.

Narrative
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.

Narrative
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.
