Dr. Benita Thornhill
Licensed Professional Counselor, PsyD, LPC, E-RYT500
Currently not accepting new clients. I am dedicated to providing compassionate psychotherapy to individuals and couples navigating life’s challenges. I create a warm and understanding environment where clients can feel supported while working to overcome obstacles that prevent them from reaching their goals and dreams.
I am trained in EMDR, DBT, Gottman Method Couples Therapy Levels 1 and Level 2, and a Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work Leader. I hold certifications in trauma and sex therapy. Additionally, I am an experienced 500hr Registered Yoga Teacher (E-RYT500).
I strive to ensure that my clients feel heard, understood, and empowered as they navigate their healing journey.
I firmly believe that you don't have to face life's challenges alone. Together, we can work to find the clarity and solutions needed to live a more satisfying and intentional life. If you're ready to take the first step towards positive change, I invite you to schedule your session today.

Gottman Method
Althea Dent
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
My approach to therapy is grounded in collaboration, respect, and practical growth. Therapy with me is a shared process focused on helping you move from feeling stuck toward greater clarity and confidence. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, solution-focused methods, and a Socratic, meta-questioning style to help clients examine patterns, strengthen self-awareness, and develop effective coping strategies. My work often supports people navigating anxiety, grief, life transitions, and relationship concerns, with an emphasis on tools that can be applied in everyday life. I view the therapeutic relationship as central to meaningful change.

Dr. Caroline Hicks
Psychologist, PhD, LP
You deserve a space where you don’t have to explain or shrink who you are. I work from a queer-affirming, trans-affirming, and trauma-informed lens to support individuals navigating identity, transition, relationships, and major life changes. Many of my clients come in feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from their authenticity, or unsure of the next step. Together we create space to slow down, explore, and reconnect with yourself.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in empowerment. Whether you're questioning, in transition, or working through old patterns, I’m here to support you in building a life that feels aligned with your truth. Therapy with me isn’t about “fixing” you. It’s about helping you feel seen, grounded, and understood.
