Robin Britt
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-S
What makes me a good fit for you?
With over 20 years of experience as a Licensed Professional Counselor, I've sat with hundreds of people in some of their hardest moments — and I've lived through a few of my own.
I know anxiety from the inside. I've felt that restless, relentless weight, and I've done the work to move through it. That means when you describe what you're carrying, I'm not just nodding from a textbook — I genuinely get it.
As a parent of a child on the autism spectrum, I also bring something that no training alone can give: the real, daily experience of loving and advocating for a neurodiverse family member. Whether you're a parent navigating that road or an individual on the spectrum yourself, you'll find in me someone who understands your world with both professional knowledge and personal heart.
For couples, I'm certified in the Gottman Method — one of the most research-backed approaches to relationship healing — which means our work together is grounded in what actually helps partnerships grow, not just survive.
I show up warm, real, and fully present. My clients tell me they feel heard in a way they haven't before. If you're looking for a therapist who brings both clinical depth and lived humanity to the room — and who welcomes faith as part of the journey when that matters to you — I'd be honored to walk alongside you.

Melinda Switzer - Beauty for Ashes Trauma Therapy and Treatment
Counselor/Therapist, Melinda Switzer, MA, LPC, NCC
As one who has experienced complex trauma myself, I believe I can relate to my clients’ experiences and needs. My philosophy is no one should have to live under the shadow of trauma and how it affects the body. Trauma can be tough on survivors, but there is help and hope for healing. Most trauma victims exhibit some signs and symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). This can lead to Anxiety, Depression, Disassociation, and a myriad of other mental illnesses. These are the areas I specialize in by offering healing and hope to my clients allowing them to be in control of their trauma and not their trauma being in control of them. Strong mental health is so important and can change the trajectory of your life by helping you go from debilitating disorders to manageable and healthy mental health.

Michelle Peacock
Psychologist, PhD
We will work together to help you make positive changes to your life—healthier, more stable, productive and fulfilling! With each of my clients, I work to build a relationship based in trust and authenticity where you can feel both safe and challenged—safe knowing you can talk openly and will be heard and understood, not judged, but also challenged to make the changes you want to make. Making those changes is more likely when you find a therapist who is empathetic—someone with whom you can connect and trust. Your full potential is always within reach and a therapeutic relationship based in sincere, empathetic, and authentic dialogue is healing. Call me today for a free, phone consultation and get started on a better and brighter present and future.
