Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I have been a therapist for over 10 years and running my own company for the last 2. I use a combination of Biblical therapy as well as CBT. I truly care for my clients and desire them to have a more joyful life free of anxiety and depression. I have worked with many individuals, families, and marriages and have seen growth and freedom from stress achieved. I have seen marriages put back together and families and individuals before stronger. I also host a podcast with my wife and we cover topics such as marriage, narcissism, relationships, etc.

Tracey Knows
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Hey, thanks for taking a look at my profile! My name is Tracey, and I provide a warm, down-to-earth, and deeply supportive space for healing and growth. My approach blends mindfulness, holistic techniques, and evidence-based therapy to help clients break free from anxiety, OCD, people-pleasing, and self-doubt. Rather than offering quick fixes, I focus on lasting transformation—helping you reconnect with your inner strength, set healthy boundaries, and navigate life’s transitions with confidence. Clients often describe my style as authentic, perceptive, and deeply compassionate, creating a space where they feel truly seen and supported.
What sets Talk with Tracey apart is my ability to blend practical tools with deeper emotional work, ensuring that you not only gain coping skills but also heal at the root level. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just ready for change, I meet you where you are and guide you toward the life you truly want. Therapy with me isn’t just about reducing distress—it’s about helping you step into your full potential with clarity, resilience, and self-trust. If you’re ready to take that step, I’d love to support you on your journey.

Dr. Brittany Jacobson
Psychologist, PhD, CST
Maybe you're exhausted from carrying everything on your own. You want someone to lean on, but trusting people has never felt safe. You tell yourself you should be over what happened by now, but you still feel the impact of the past. You are really hard on yourself, struggle to get close to people, feel on edge even when nothing is wrong, or wonder why the same relationship patterns keep showing up. On the outside, you might look like you're keeping it together, but internally you feel exhausted and alone.
One of the things I love most about being a therapist is helping people finally make sense of and find closure from experiences that have never truly been processed. And to provide the support you’ve always needed but have never truly received. Healing is about helping both your mind and body learn that you don't have to stay in survival mode. My approach is trauma-informed, relational, and holistic, blending evidence-based therapy with mindfulness and mind-body techniques to create meaningful, lasting change.
I know you may feel like you can't really rely on anyone and have had to handle everything on your own. Working with me as your therapist, you'll finally have someone in your corner who has your back and will be your biggest advocate. My clients have described me as someone patient and compassionate who will also give direct, helpful feedback that supports their goals; and someone who isn't afraid to bring some well-timed humor into sessions, because healing involves connecting with joy too.
Our work together will be intentional. I come with a personalized plan for each session so you get the most out of your therapy. Everything will be tailored to your unique story, goals, and nervous system. We'll move at your pace while addressing the deeper roots of what's keeping you stuck, so you can build self-trust, healthier relationships, and a greater sense of peace in your daily life. If you're wondering whether we'd be a good fit, I'd love to meet you during a free 15-minute consultation! To schedule a consultation, you can contact me to coordinate a time or book directly on my website if that's easier.

Alan Jacobson, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, Nationally Registered Health Service Provider
I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years of experience working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families to create meaningful, measurable change in how they feel, function, and relate to others. My approach is evidence-based, empathic, and solution-focused, with therapy centered on helping you achieve clear goals so that progress is noticeable in daily life. I work with a wide range of concerns—including anxiety, low mood, loss, self-doubt, and life transitions—and have particular expertise in performance psychology, public speaking anxiety, panic attacks, fear of flying, and questions of purpose or meaning. If you’re unsure whether therapy is the right next step, I also offer a one-time consultation assessment to help clarify what may be contributing to your current stress and identify effective pathways forward, whether through therapy or other strategies.
