Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counselor, MS, CMHC, CLC
What does it feel like when you start your day?....... Do you wake already tense, behind, or bracing for what’s next?
Too many of us live with the constant hum of stress—tight shoulders, racing thoughts, shallow breaths—wondering when peace will finally come.
What would it mean if you could begin and end your day with calm confidence? Not just managing stress, but being free from it—by resetting your nervous system and learning to live from a place of grounded peace.
At Rising Calm Center, our Christian counselors help you break out of the cycle of overthinking, overworking, and overwhelm. We combine faith-based wisdom with evidence-based methods—CBT, DBT, ACT, and somatic regulation—to retrain your body and mind toward lasting calm.
Together, we’ll help you:
• Release chronic tension and burnout patterns
• Rebuild clarity, focus, and emotional balance
• Set healthy boundaries and restore rest
• Reconnect with God’s peace amid life’s pressure
We offer same-week appointments, in-person and virtual sessions, and a sliding fee scale that works with any insurance or budget—so getting help is easy and stress-free.
You don’t have to live in constant overdrive. With the right tools and support, peace can become your new normal.

Dr. Dawnn R. Meiers
Psychologist, Psy.D.
"I can be changed by what happens to me. But I refuse to be reduced by it." This quote by the late, great Dr. Maya Angelou illustrates my approach to stress management, which is guided by research from the fields of behavioral health, lifestyle medicine, and "third-wave" cognitive-behavioral models including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Let's surf the waves of life together and learn how to stay (mostly) above water...while moving toward a life filled with joy, purpose, and meaning.

Dr. Samira Paul Olive Tree Psychology Clinic LLC
Psychologist, PsyD
At Olive Tree Psychology Clinic LLC, we recognize that while stress is an inevitable part of a high-achieving or transition-filled life, it doesn’t have to lead to burnout or physical exhaustion. We view stress through a holistic lens, understanding how the "always-on" nature of modern life compounded by cultural pressures and family responsibilities can keep your nervous system in a state of constant survival. Our approach focuses on moving from reactive "firefighting" to proactive regulation. We help you identify your primary stressors and develop a personalized "resilience toolkit." By teaching you how to quiet the physiological stress response and set healthy boundaries, we empower you to handle life’s demands without losing your sense of inner peace.

Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
Those who suffer from chronic stress work can benefit greatly from my hypnotic programming and supportive frameworks like NLP, breathwork, EMT, regression, tapping, and others. We will reset the nervous system and hardwire in commands that signal a return to safety. The tools used can be turned to in triggering moments so you can restore emotionally within minutes. I train you in a technique you can do if you wake up to dread so we quickly alter your chemical makeup to an elevated state and a sense of hopefulness is restored. I also give you a tool that can be called on during times of feeling overwhelmed and overextended, so you can find clarity and a sense of calm to move forward, unimpeded. We explore beliefs and emotions associated with the stress you are experiencing, while identifying areas in life we can remove stress from realistically, and may find the root cause within a regression, where once the old emotions are finally released, we can begin wiring in the new ways of being that all support the goal of inner peace, calm, and effortless ease.
