Meandering to Change, LLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker
Hello! I see therapy as a casual conversation with a purpose. That purpose is to create an opportunity for you to explore your experiences, better understand yourself, and discover possibilities for change.
For more than 21 years, I have had the privilege of supporting people through challenges of all shapes and sizes. Some have names such as anxiety, depression, grief, or relationship difficulties. Others are simply parts of life that have become difficult, confusing, overwhelming, or no longer feel right. I don’t believe a problem needs to fit neatly into a diagnosis to deserve attention.
I believe each person comes to therapy with their own story, strengths, experiences, and understanding of the world. You are the expert on the life you’ve lived. I bring my clinical experience, curiosity, creativity, and a willingness to explore that life alongside you.
Change doesn’t always happen in a straight line. Sometimes we know exactly where we want to go, and sometimes figuring out the destination is part of the journey. Wherever you are when we meet, that’s where we’ll begin.

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.

Alyssa Smyth
Psychologist, PhD
You may be someone who is accustomed to managing a great deal on your own—but over time, stress, anxiety, low mood, or difficulty focusing can begin to interfere with daily life. I specialize in working with adults who carry significant responsibility and want a clearer understanding of what is affecting their mood, attention, and overall functioning. My background in military psychology informs a practical, evidence-based approach focused on restoring clarity, stability, and sustainable performance across work and personal life. If you are looking for thoughtful, structured support to move forward more effectively, I invite you to reach out to learn more or schedule an appointment.
