Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
Fear, anxiety, anger, shame, guilt, sadness; we are taught to repress these uncomfortable emotions and mask our pain. When these BIG emotions are shoved down for so long, they try to get our attention in various ways. We push back harder. They often manifest as maladaptive behaviors, habits, addictions, and even chronic physical and psychological conditions. We may overeat, overwork, over-promise, people-please, self-sabotage, be unable to focus, thrill-seek, put ourselves in danger, act out, procrastinate, deplete our own resources, and more. The majority of this type of unwanted behavior and thinking often can be traced back to some form of trauma, abuse, abandonment, or neglect. My hypnotherapy sessions help to process the emotions in a safe and loving way, and facilitate healing; so you feel safe in your own mind and comfortable in your own skin. We simultaneously work on reframing the debilitating thoughts and behaviors with healthy and supportive new ones that support your new goals. It is in this way we let go of the old stories and rewrite the future of our dreams.

Knopp Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
I believe meaningful change begins by meeting you exactly where you are. My approach to therapy is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to your unique experiences, strengths, and goals. By integrating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Existential therapy, and Solution-focused therapies, I help clients navigate life's challenges with greater clarity, resilience, and purpose.
Whether you're experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, life transitions, relationship concerns, or simply seeking personal growth, I provide a supportive space where you can explore the patterns that influence your life, gain new perspectives, and develop practical strategies for meaningful, lasting change.
I understand that choosing a therapist is a deeply personal decision. My commitment is to create an environment where you feel genuinely heard, respected, and supported while working toward the goals that matter most to you. Together, we'll build on your strengths, clarify your values, and create a path forward that reflects the life you want to live. If you're ready to take the next step—or simply curious about whether we're a good fit—I invite you to reach out. I look forward to helping you build the insight, confidence, and resilience to create meaningful, lasting change.

Stephanie Davis
Hypnotherapist, Cht
Your mind and body are deeply connected—and lasting change begins within. Hypnosis helps reprogram the subconscious mind, easing stress, releasing emotional blocks, and strengthening the mind-body connection. Research shows hypnosis can lower cortisol (the stress hormone) and support overall well-being. Every session is more than relaxation—it's an opportunity to heal, grow, and reconnect with your best self.
