Rising Phoenix Therapy - Dempsey Young, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Dr. Dempsey is a licensed psychologist that provides individual and couples therapy services as well as psychological testing for adults to help people thrive and begin living a fulfilling life as the best versions of themselves. I am not really a sit back and just listen therapist... as I ask you to bring your authentic self to sessions, I do the same and often a lot more interpersonal and direct if needed but of course invested in our relationship as a safe and empathic one. Sometimes being stuck in the trees blocks us from moving forward and to where we want to be. Through therapy, we can work our way through the woods together to the open field waiting for you. You DESERVE to be your best and full self and I believe I can help bring that to your life. Reach out and we can chat about your concerns and get started!

Gottman Method
Kimberly Dudley
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I believe therapy should be a collaborative experience where you feel seen, heard, and valued. My goal is to create a space where you can show up authentically, explore life’s challenges honestly, and develop the tools needed to create meaningful change.
As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I am passionate about relational work. Whether I am working with an individual, couple, or family I am focused on supporting increased understanding, strengthening relationships, helping my client improve their ability to navigate life’s complexities with confidence. I recognize that many people are carrying unseen burdens while trying to meet the expectations of family, work, relationships, and faith. Therapy offers an opportunity to slow down, gain perspective, and move from surviving to thriving.
My faith is an important part of who I am, and for clients who desire it, I enjoy integrating Christian principles into the therapeutic process. Whether you are working through relationship challenges, anxiety, family dynamics, life transitions, or personal growth, I consider it a privilege to walk alongside you on your journey toward healing.

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.
