Dr. Trey Cole
Psychologist, Psy.D., ABPP, DAAETS
Therapy, at its best, is a space where you can slow down, turn inward, and begin to understand yourself more fully. My role is to walk alongside you in that process — with honesty, care, and deep respect for your experience.
I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, relationship challenges, and life transitions. My approach draws from CBT, ACT, trauma-focused therapy, and existential therapy, always tailored to what feels most useful for you. But more than any particular method, I believe healing happens through genuine connection — when you feel truly seen and understood.
Together, we'll explore the patterns, emotions, and beliefs that shape how you move through the world. We'll build practical tools where you need them, and make space for the deeper questions when those matter more. My hope is that our work helps you relate to yourself with greater compassion, and to your life with greater clarity and intention.

Brandon Johnson
Counselor/Therapist, LGSW
When people see you, they think you have a perfect life. You're focused, determined, and accomplished, but when you look on the inside, you feel lost and incapable of living up to your potential. You see the negative version of yourself, and no matter how hard you try to change, you just haven't been able to get over that hump. It's become exhausting, and you feel like giving up. Don't be last in your own life, while taking care of everyone else. You're tired of always having to be strong, when you feel like everything is against you. Instead of living life stressed out, it's time for a change.
You want to finally relax and enjoy the life you’ve worked so hard to create. You want to learn this whole "self-care" thing and finally learn how to put yourself first without feeling guilty or selfish. You're ready to quiet the inner critic so that you can feel more positive and create the change you want in your life. I can help you get there.

James Parker
Psychologist, PhD
I view therapy as a collaborative interaction in service of understanding the best forms of quality human relating. My approach to therapy is primarily guided by Coherence Therapy. Coherence Therapy is an approach to treatment that is different from many others in that - instead of focusing on what is "negative" or "wrong" and trying to change or alter it - the purpose is to genuinely understand a person's symptoms; to curiously explore why maintaining certain patterns of thinking and behavior is emotionally necessary, even when a person is feeling stuck because of those patterns. Understanding the symptom leads to identifying the underlying emotional reasons of why we do things and addresses the cause of feeling stuck, not just the symptom, which leads to meaningful and lasting changes.
