A Better High,LLC
Drug and Alcohol Counselor, C.A.R.C.
I am proudly and openly in long-term recovery myself from substance use disorders. Over the years I’ve learned that there are just many many ways to do this, and a lot of my job and specialty is helping people find and implement the path that works best for them. I offer a lot of “handholding” in the beginning, which seems really helpful for the people I work with. I’ve been told by others that I have a friendly, natural, casual and “organic” presence, which helps people relax and even have fun, which is really important to me.

Yuanfei Zhang
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
I became a therapist because I know what it means to be between worlds.
As someone who has navigated different cultures, languages, and identities, I understand the particular kind of loneliness that comes when your inner life doesn't quite have words yet — or when the words you have don't translate. That experience lives at the heart of everything I do.
I work primarily with women and individuals in the perinatal space — pregnancy, postpartum, fertility, and loss — as well as college students and immigrants standing at crossroads moments in their lives. These are the seasons when we most need someone who can hold complexity without rushing to fix it.
My training in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) gives me a framework, but honestly, what guides me most is curiosity. I want to know what your life actually feels like from the inside — what you carry, what you've adapted to, what you've quietly set aside. I want to know how your culture shaped the way you love, grieve, and ask for help. And I want to sit with you in all of it, without judgment, without a predetermined destination.
Clients tell me our sessions feel like finally exhaling. My hope is that over time, that feeling stops being something you only find in a therapy room — and starts becoming something you carry with you.

Join the Rebellion (JTR23 Inc)
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, depression, stress, or uncertainty about the future start to take over. I specialize in helping men, young professionals, and veterans navigate the complex challenges of modern life—including identity, purpose, relationships, and emotional regulation.
I am Damon Neely, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and I provide online therapy for adults across multiple states who are struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, and life transitions. My practice focuses particularly on men’s mental health, helping clients address issues such as perfectionism, low self-worth, anger, relationship conflict, and the pressures associated with modern masculinity.
Many of my clients are men who appear successful on the outside but internally feel stuck, disconnected, or uncertain about their direction in life. Therapy provides a confidential and non-judgmental space where we can explore the deeper patterns that influence your thoughts, emotions, and behavior.
As a veteran therapist, I also enjoy working with military members and veterans navigating the transition from service to civilian life. These experiences often involve identity shifts, relationship adjustments, and the search for renewed purpose.
My approach to therapy is integrative and evidence-based, drawing from several therapeutic models including:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Existential Therapy
Person-Centered Therapy
Psychodynamic Therapy
Solution-Focused Therapy
Family Systems Theory
While techniques are helpful, the most important factor in therapy is the therapeutic relationship. My goal is to create a space where you feel understood, challenged in a healthy way, and empowered to develop greater self-awareness.
In our work together we may explore topics such as:
• Anxiety and chronic stress
• Depression and emotional numbness
• Identity and life purpose
• Masculinity and role expectations
• Anger management and emotional regulation
• Relationship and communication issues
• Fatherhood and family dynamics
• Self-worth and confidence
• Personal meaning and life direction
My work is heavily influenced by existential psychology, which focuses on helping individuals create meaning, develop authenticity, and align their lives with their deepest values.
Many clients come to therapy believing something is “wrong” with them. Often the real issue is that they have never had the space to examine their experiences, beliefs, and emotions in a supportive environment.
Therapy can help you gain clarity, challenge limiting narratives, and develop the insight necessary to create meaningful change.
If you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure of your next step, therapy can help you reconnect with your values, purpose, and direction.

Wayne Ayers
Psychologist, PhD
Psychotherapy can be challenging, but it is a rewarding process. Most people come in to discuss the problems in their lives. They often forget about what is going well, and what are their natural talents and abilities. I train and supervise psychologists at area hospitals. Because of this I am sensitive to ethical concerns: honesty, integrity and practicality. I strive to create a very kind and safe atmosphere where personal exploration is possible. Psychotherapy should be collaborative. I am active and vocal and give my clients ongoing feedback, inquiry and support.

Dr Laura Soden
Psychologist, PhD, Clinical Psychology
As an experienced psychologist, I've witnessed psychotherapy transform people's lives--relieve shame and guilt, assuage sadness and loneliness, allow forgiveness of self and others, reveal assets and goals. But it's hard work -- intimate, uncomfortable, sometimes painful. The patient must do the work, but he/she needn't do it alone. The "right" therapist as guide, companion, witness, can ease the pain, deepen the discovery, enhance the joy. I offer a free initial consultation as an audition for both patient and therapist to assess the "fit" and decide whether to embark on this intimate work together.
