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!

Kristina Peck
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Let’s be honest—life is hard. Messy, beautiful, overwhelming, and at times downright ridiculous. If you’re struggling (like most of us are at some point), you deserve a space that feels safe, supportive, and—believe it or not—a little bit lighter.
I’m a seasoned therapist who brings clinical expertise and a human touch. That means evidence-based approaches grounded in years of experience, paired with humor, compassion, and real talk. I believe in validating your experience while gently helping you shift what’s not working.
Therapy with me isn’t about judgment—it’s about connection. I create a space where you can exhale, show up exactly as you are, and start untangling what’s holding you back. I normalize the human condition because, well, we’re all just trying to get through this thing called life. Let’s do it together—with insight, laughter, and a whole lot of heart.

Elements Counseling and Wellness Spa
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, PhD, LPC, LCSW, LSW, LAPC,
We believe healing isn’t always quiet—it’s about being bold, being unapologetically you, and finally letting your body release the weight it’s been carrying. By blending compassionate psychotherapy with restorative somatic care like halotherapy and deep muscle compression, we help you process trauma in a way that truly sticks. Our sanctuary is a safe, fiercely inclusive haven built for marginalized voices and the queer community, where you’ll feel the relief of a warm blanket the moment you walk through the door. Whether you’re navigating trauma, neurodiversity, or sex therapy, you don't have to carry your story alone anymore. You’re home—come in, exhale, and let’s start your next chapter together.
