Robin Kaye Stilwell
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., L.M.F.T.
With many years of experience, I bring an eclectic, interactive approach to therapy. We each see the world through our unique lens, as well as how we see ourselves in relationships; all influenced by the larger systems we are part of. These different perspectives are honored. My style is to create a relaxed atmosphere , and our work is guided by our conversation. I listen for underlying patterns of behavior. This shapes my perceptions as to what interventions will be most beneficial. .

Dr. Amber Thornton
Psychologist, PsyD
As a clinical psychologist and trauma expert, I help parents + adults heal from generational trauma and cultivate emotionally healthy families built on connection, peace, and intention. You deserve to show up as the person, partner, and parent you want to be—grounded, whole, and emotionally present.
I work with adults who are ready to heal old wounds, release survival-mode patterns, and create lives that feel balanced and emotionally fulfilling. Together, we focus on helping you prioritize your own wellness, so that you can experience more ease, connection, and joy in every part of your life.
You’ve spent so much of your life holding it all together. You’ve shown up for everyone else while quietly carrying the weight of old patterns, stress, or self-doubt. I’m here to help you heal what’s beneath the surface, so you can experience more ease, confidence, and connection within yourself and in your relationships.
My therapy and parent coaching services are designed to meet you exactly where you are in your journey toward emotional wellness, growth, and freedom. I'm excited to work with you!

Kate E. Stephenson
Life Coach, ICF Professional Certified Coach (PCC), Holistic Life, Career & Executive
Have you made time and space for you today? Most of us haven't. I am here to encourage you to take a breath, take a beat to consider who you are, where you are, and if you are feeling satisfaction in your own success. If you aren't, I invite you to have a conversation with yourself about what can be done differently—allow me to moderate that conversation. Together we can help you live into your own definition of success and begin to feel it deeply. To breathe it in and live.

Amanda Shrekenhamer
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC
*I am currently accepting new clients*
I’m glad you are here. Reaching out to find support can be the hardest step. I can be difficult to know how to move forward in your personal life, work, or academics when fear, anxiety, or depression are making you feel stuck.
I often find that when one hits a crossroad in their life, it can sometimes bring stress, but also has the capacity to create growth and resilience. Whether it’s experiencing overwhelming feelings of loneliness, trying to find your footing as a parent, coping with a difficult boss or colleague, or navigating the loss of a relationship, having a nonjudgmental and supportive space to work on areas of growth can make all of the difference.
I believe that positive change most readily occurs when the right balance of accountability and self compassion is achieved. To that end, I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment where you can truly feel supported.
