Kimberlee Zetocha Halverson
Psychologist, Ph.D, LP
I help people create more balance in their lives by learning when to pause, be present, and step out of the constant pressure of “what’s next.” Many individuals find themselves shaped by old patterns or past experiences that make it hard to move forward. My approach focuses on helping you ride the waves of life with greater resilience—navigating the unpredictable storms rather than feeling anchored in them. While we can’t prepare for every unexpected moment, we can build the tools and skills to manage whatever comes our way. Tides shift, storms pass, and calmer waters are possible.
I don’t believe in a one‑size‑fits‑all approach. I tailor treatment to your preferences, goals, schedule, and life circumstances. I also offer structured, evidence‑based therapies when a more guided path is helpful. With over 15 years of experience supporting individuals with a wide range of concerns, I bring both flexibility and clinical depth to the work we do together.
For more information, please visit my website. You’ll find a secure, private patient portal with built‑in video sessions, scheduling, communication, and payment options—all in one encrypted, easy‑to‑use platform, including a mobile app for added convenience.

Cherilyn Schutze Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, MEd., LPC, CCTTP, EMDR trained
I believe therapy works best when it is rooted in trust, authenticity, and honest connection. My goal is to create a space where you feel genuinely understood and supported—while also gently challenged toward the growth and healing you are seeking.
Clients often describe me as warm, insightful, direct, and deeply engaged in the therapeutic process. I value authenticity in the therapy room and believe meaningful change happens when we are willing to look honestly at both the pain you carry and the patterns that may be keeping you stuck.
My approach balances emotional depth with practical guidance. I want clients to leave therapy with more than insight alone—I want them to develop the self-understanding, emotional clarity, and practical tools needed to create lasting change in their lives and relationships.
It is a privilege to walk alongside clients as they do the courageous work of healing old wounds, growing in self-awareness, and becoming more fully themselves.

Renew Restoration
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S
I became a therapist because I understood, early on, what it felt like to keep moving when something underneath wasn't right. That experience shaped how I see people, not as problems to fix, but as individuals who adapted to what life asked of them.
For over seven years, I've worked with people who are capable, driven, and often very good at holding things together, while quietly carrying something heavier beneath the surface. Burnout. Disconnection. A persistent sense that the life they've built doesn't quite fit who they are anymore.
That's the work I care most about. Not just helping people feel better, but helping them understand themselves, the patterns, the adaptations, the survival strategies that made sense once and may be costing them now.
I wrote The Secret Life of Silent Suffering because I wanted to name what so many people experience but rarely say out loud. That same thread runs through everything I do: therapy, training, speaking, and education for other clinicians.
I believe healing is possible. Not as a return to who you were before, but as a gradual movement toward greater clarity, freedom, and alignment with who you actually are.
