Brittany Washington
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFTA
What makes my practice, Metamorphosis Counseling and Wellness Collective PLLC, truly special is the heart, advocacy, and lived experience I bring into every session. As a passionate epilepsy advocate and someone who deeply understands the challenges of living with epilepsy, PNES, and Functional Neurological Disorder (FND), I offer a safe and empowering space for those navigating the emotional toll of chronic illness. My approach is warm, collaborative, and focused on helping you rebuild self-esteem, strengthen relationships, and re-author your story with compassion and clarity. If you're looking for a therapist who truly sees you, honors your journey, and advocates for your healing, I would be honored to walk that path with you.

Jason Herr
Psychologist, Psy.D.
My approach to therapy is grounded in the belief that meaningful change begins with understanding—of ourselves, our patterns, and the biological and emotional systems that shape how we experience the world. I work with individuals, couples, and families across a wide range of concerns, integrating clinical experience, psychological insight, and education about how the brain and nervous system function under stress, trauma, and emotional strain.
Throughout my career in community mental health, private practice, medical settings, and teaching, I have worked with people facing complex emotional and relational challenges. These experiences have shaped a practical, compassionate, and direct style that focuses on helping clients understand why they feel and react the way they do, while developing concrete skills for change. I believe therapy is not only about symptom relief but about increasing self-awareness, emotional regulation, and the ability to navigate life with greater clarity and intention.
My work often includes helping clients understand the connection between thoughts, emotions, and physiological responses. By learning how to regulate the nervous system and tolerate uncertainty, individuals can respond more thoughtfully rather than react automatically. I aim to create a collaborative and respectful therapeutic environment where clients feel safe to explore difficult experiences, retell their stories when needed, and move toward a stronger sense of stability and self-understanding.
Therapy is a process of growth, accountability, and compassion. Whether someone is navigating anxiety, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or life transitions, my goal is to help them build insight, resilience, and a more grounded sense of who they are and how they want to live.

Jerrod Johnson
Psychologist, PsyD
Being human means having anxiety, doubt, and painful experiences, but it also means having the capacity to grow, heal, and choose how we want to live. I work with people who want to better understand what’s getting in the way and start living more fully as the person they want to be.
