Meier, Ryan
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS Couple and Family Therapy, Marriage and Family Therapy-Intern
Every person has a story. Some chapters bring joy, while others leave us feeling stuck, disconnected, or uncertain about what comes next. I believe therapy is a place to understand that story with compassion and begin moving toward a life that feels more like your own. I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, and life transitions. My approach is collaborative, thoughtful, and grounded in the belief that meaningful change begins with feeling heard, understood, and safe enough to explore the patterns that shape our lives. Whether you're seeking support for yourself, your relationship, or your family, I strive to create a space where growth can happen at a pace that feels right for you.

Philip Gnilka
Counselor/Therapist, PhD, CPC, LPC, LCPC, CCMHC, NCC
Many of my clients beat themselves up after challenging days, have increased anxiety, and a lingering sense of self-criticism over minor mistakes. They constantly replay alternative scenarios which end up becoming an incessant loop, persisting for days or even weeks. Frustration grows as they struggle to shake off this self-critical mindset, fostering thoughts of inadequacy and impostor syndrome. Worries about disappointing others both professionally and personally contributes to exhaustion daily. Despite attempts by friends and family to offer support, the feeling of being truly understood remains elusive, deepening the overall sense of fatigue.
If you aspire to regain a sense of engagement in your life, pursue excellence in your career and personal life, experience love and support, and better manage stress and anxiety, these goals can be well within reach.
I collaborate with my clients in helping understand the driving forces behind their pursuit of achievement and instilling hope in the possibility of change. Together, we craft solutions that sustain high performance while transforming the self-critical inner dialogue into one of support. I assist my clients learn a set of tools designed to temper self-criticism and manage anxiety, paving the way to a more calmer and focused life.
If maintaining peak performance while navigating heightened anxiety and silencing that inner critic resonate with you, reach out for a complementary 15 minute session. Prior to transitioning into private practice, I spent over a decade as a tenured professor. Throughout this time, my research delved into perfectionism, anxiety, and stress management. I am enthusiastic about helping clients learn the knowledge and insights gained from this experience to guide you toward a more fulfilling, balanced life.

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.

Rachael Keyser, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD
I believe that healing happens in the context of connection, understanding, and support. My practice is built on the foundation of meeting you where you are, without judgment, and helping you navigate life’s challenges with compassion and evidence-based care. As a licensed psychologist, I take a holistic approach, considering not just your symptoms but your relationships, environment, and overall well-being. Whether you’re an individual seeking clarity or a couple working through difficulties, I create a safe and affirming space where real change can happen.
Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you—it’s about uncovering the strengths you already have and learning how to use them in ways that feel right for you. If you’re ready to start that journey, I would love to help. Contact me today, and let’s take the next step together.
