Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counselor, MS, CMHC, CLC
The greatest factor in the quality of your life is the quality of your relationships. When love breaks down, everything else feels shaky. The distance grows, conversations turn tense or quiet, and what once felt natural starts to feel like work. You may be stuck in cycles of arguing, avoidance, or wondering if trust can ever be restored.
At Rising Calm Center, we believe every couple can learn to love more deeply—with honesty, empathy, and grace. Our Christian counselors help you heal from the past, understand the present, and build a future marked by peace, purpose, and partnership.
We even offer same-week appointments, in-person and virtual sessions, and a sliding fee scale that works with any insurance or budget—so care is flexible and accessible when you need it most.
We blend faith-based wisdom with proven relationship methods—Gottman Method, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), family systems work, and communication coaching—to help you:
• Rebuild trust after conflict or betrayal
• Communicate clearly without criticism or withdrawal
• Heal old wounds that fuel anger, shame, or fear
• Strengthen friendship, intimacy, and shared spiritual connection
• Experience genuine joy and unity that lasts
Every conversation is grounded in empathy and truth. We help you slow down, listen well, and rediscover each other through the lens of grace.
Whether you’re newly married or years into a challenging season, there is hope. You can restore what’s been lost and create something stronger than before.
At Rising Calm Center, we help couples reconnect with purpose, love with courage, and grow together in Christ-centered peace.
Hope and healing can begin today—call or email for your FREE CONSULTATION.

Dr. Tracy Mallett
Psychologist, Psy.D., L.M.F.T., Licensed Psychologist
Relationships are some of the most rewarding parts of life—but they can also bring stress, frustration, and conflict. I specialize in helping couples and partners navigate challenges such as communication difficulties, trust issues, emotional disconnection, infidelity, and differing values or expectations.
In therapy, couples gain a safe, structured space to explore underlying dynamics, improve understanding, and develop skills for healthy communication and problem-solving. My approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Family Systems Theory, helping partners identify negative interaction patterns, manage emotional reactivity, and create new ways of relating that foster connection, empathy, and mutual respect.
Whether you are looking to repair a struggling relationship, navigate major life transitions together, or strengthen an already healthy partnership, therapy focuses on both insight and action—teaching practical strategies that partners can implement in daily life. I also support blended families, co-parenting couples, and couples navigating significant stressors such as relocation, career changes, or family illness.
My goal is to help couples build resilience, deepen intimacy, and create a relationship foundation that is not only functional but also fulfilling.

Dr. Kristyn Neckles
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Relationships can become strained even when love is still present. You may find yourselves having the same arguments, feeling more like roommates than partners, struggling to rebuild trust, or wondering how two people who care deeply about each other became so disconnected.
I help couples move beyond cycles of blame, defensiveness, avoidance, and ineffective communication to better understand what is happening beneath the conflict. Our work focuses not only on how you communicate, but on how each partner shows up in the relationship: the patterns you bring, the needs you may struggle to express, and the ways you respond when you feel hurt, unheard, or disconnected.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and gently direct. I believe healthy relationships require both self awareness and shared responsibility. Rather than focusing only on compromise, we work toward collaboration: learning how to honor two individual experiences while building a relationship in which both partners can feel seen, valued, emotionally safe, and connected.
Whether you are navigating recurring conflict, trust concerns, infidelity, intimacy challenges, life transitions, or simply want to strengthen your connection, therapy can provide a space to slow down, understand one another differently, repair what has been hurt, and intentionally choose what comes next.
