James C. Carpenter, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, PhD (Clinical Psychology, Ohio State U), Board Certified in Clinical Psychology (ABPP), PSYPACT
My clinical experience is wide and deep. I estimate I have conducted about 90,000 hours of psychotherapy sessions, including many hours training and supervising other therapists. This experience covers many modes: individual therapy, as well as family, couple and group therapy. My basic orientation is existential and psychodynamic, but I have added much training and experience in other approaches on top of that over the years. I am Board Certified in Clinical Psychology, ABPP, have served 2 terms as a board director and secretary for the American Academy of Psychotherapy, and previously trained young clinical psychologists and psychiatric residents at the University of North Carolina. We keep learning more about how to be effective therapists, and I have aggressively added to my clinical wisdom. I stand ready to work to understand you deeply, and help you profoundly, whatever your current dilemmas.

Dr. Weston Donaldson
Psychologist, PhD, ABPP
As an LGBTQ+ person, you've probably gotten pretty good at figuring things out for yourself. But then life throws you a curveball you can't simply think your way through, problem-solve your way out of, or grit your teeth and muscle through forever.
Maybe you're grieving someone you lost - or something that others don't even recognize as a loss. Maybe your relationship has changed, your health isn't what it used to be, or you're caring for someone you love and wondering how much longer you can keep going. You may be functioning just fine on the outside, while feeling pretty damn exhausted on the inside.
I'm Dr. Weston Donaldson, a gay psychologist and founder of Proud Heart Therapy Services, LLC. I help LGBTQ+ adults coping with grief, loss, trauma, and complicated transitions that come with getting older. Being part of the queer community means I bring a familiarity with our relationships, chosen families, histories, and experiences that can make these challenges more complex. You shouldn't have to spend your therapy sessions explaining why your relationships matter or why a particular loss has hit you so hard.
For me, the magic sauce of therapy is relationship. You can bring the messy feelings, the contradictions, the things you're not sure you're supposed to say out loud. My job isn't to tell you how you should feel or hand you a generic set of coping skills. It's to help you understand what's happening, reconnect with your own wisdom, and figure out what you want your life to look from here on out.
You don't have to stop grieving, have everything figured out, or know exactly what you need before reaching out. If you're tired of going through this time alone, let's talk. I'd be glad to hear what's going on and see whether we're a good fit.

Odom Psychological Services
Psychologist, PsyD
I am a licensed psychologist who works with adolescents and adults. My clinical approach is direct, collaborative, and practical. I want clients to understand what is contributing to their difficulties and leave therapy with skills they can use in their everyday lives.
My background includes clinical and forensic psychology settings. I have worked with people experiencing trauma, emotional dysregulation, behavioral problems, interpersonal difficulties, and a range of other mental health concerns. That experience has made me attentive to the broader context of a person’s life rather than focusing only on symptoms or diagnostic labels.
In therapy, I primarily use cognitive-behavioral and dialectical behavior therapy approaches. I adapt treatment based on the person in front of me, their goals, and what appears to be maintaining the problem. I tend to work well with clients who want an active therapist and who are willing to look closely at patterns in their emotions, behavior, relationships, and coping.
I value straightforward communication and a strong working relationship. I also use humor when it fits the person and the situation. My role is to help clients make sense of what they are experiencing, identify where change is possible, and build strategies that are useful outside of the therapy session.

Dr. Kelly Scherger
Psychologist, PhD, CST
As a licensed psychologist and certified sex therapist, I believe therapy is a collaborative and meaningful process that can help you reconnect with yourself, strengthen your relationships, and create a life that is in line with your personal values. My approach is compassionate, individualized, evidence-based, and grounded in the understanding that emotional well-being, physical health, sexual wellness, and relationships are deeply interconnected.
In my practice, I work with individual adults and couples navigating concerns related to intimacy and sexual health, anxiety, depression, chronic health conditions, chronic pain, sleep difficulties, and life and relationship stress. I understand how easily your own needs, confidence, and sense of connection can become secondary to the stress and demands of everyday life. Therapy offers an opportunity to slow down, gain perspective, and explore meaningful ways to move forward.
My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to make changes that align with your values. Whether you are seeking deeper intimacy, improved emotional well-being, more restful sleep, or a stronger connection with yourself and your partner, I would be honored to support your journey.
