Acumen Psychological Services PLLC/ Dr Robinson

Psychologist, Psy.D., ABPP, PSYPACT
If you're seeking a collaborative therapeutic working relationship, then I might be a good match as a provider. It's important for individuals to gain insight into their behavioral patterns, understand underlying reasons for their current relational dynamics, but also have concrete ways in which they can pursue change. I'm a psychodynamic trained clinician, but also utilize other modalities such as CBT (Cognitive Behavior Therapy).

My approach blends warmth, presence, and evidence-based therapy to help you move beyond old patterns and reconnect with your sense of worth and wholeness.

New Beginnings Christian Counseling

Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
We are a Christian private practice focused on the integration of clinical excellence with Christ-centered truth. We help clients uncover the root of shame-based beliefs shaped by childhood wounds, trauma, and attachment patterns—and gently replace them with truth grounded in both psychological insight and Biblical identity. Our approach is compassionate, trauma-informed, and relational, creating a safe space where emotional healing and spiritual growth can happen together. Clients often share that they feel deeply seen, understood, and equipped with practical tools to experience lasting transformation in themselves and their relationships. If you are ready to begin your healing—spiritually, emotionally, and relationally—

Kelsey Ellis

Psychologist, Ph.D., LCP
Many of the women I work with are capable, caring, and used to holding everything together, even when it comes at the cost of their own bandwidth. From the outside, life may look steady, but internally there can be tension, exhaustion, or a quiet sense of disconnection. I offer trauma informed, relational therapy for women who are ready to understand themselves more deeply and find a way of living that feels more sustainable. My work is grounded in attachment and nervous system awareness, and I approach therapy as a collaborative process rooted in genuine conversation rather than quick fixes. If you are looking for a space where you can show up honestly and feel met as a whole person, I invite you to connect for a consultation.
