Genie Davidson, MS, LAC

My hope is that our work together will be highly collaborative and that you will gain more insight into the complexities of your life. I am a trauma informed therapist who utilizes art-based therapy as well as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). I thoroughly enjoy working with individuals and couples who struggle with anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, narcissistic abuse, and obsessive-compulsive disorders. Additionally, I use neurofeedback to help you in furthering your healing.

Warren Roby MS, MA, Ph.D., LPC

Dr. Roby practices dialogic counseling. He engages his clients in conversations about change. He believes mental illness is rare: most people who are struggling are stuck, not sick. His role is to help clients identify what they want their life to be and then to engage in actions, small and large, to move them toward their goals. The change process involves confronting self-sabotaging behaviors and thinking. His work is informed by his experience teaching linguistics and psychology at universities. He has worked in several countries and has a particular interest in how culture impacts identity and well-being.

Karen Abrahamson, MA, Ph.D., LPC

Karen holds a Masters Degree in Community Counseling and a PhD in Religion about what it means to have human being, that is, to live in relationship with our communities, environment, and our selves. While she favors Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a top-down approach for helping to challenge unwanted thoughts, and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, a bottom-up approach that helps individuals identify and mindfully accept their feelings, she also believes strongly in an eclectic approach with methods from Play Therapy and other helpful models of mental health therapy.

Hannah Hart, MS, LCSW

In a world where we often have to shrink to fit in or hide parts of ourself that make others uncomfortable, my hope is to provide the safe space you need to be your true, authentic self. Being open about your life can be a very scary thing, but I believe there is beauty in being vulnerable and that true healing comes out of vulnerability and connection. The good news is, you do not have to walk through that discomfort alone. Telehealth Link:doxy.me/hannahhart

Terry Richardson, MS, LCSW

The question is, do you wander until you are confused, directionless, hopeless… or do you look for a guide with experience who will share and teach what they have learned? I’m here, I’m ready… Let’s GO! Terry is providing care virtually through video sessions. Terry’s experiences as a Vietnam veteran started him on a journey through a variety of life changes.

Ganiece Duhaime, MS, LPC

I believe that success is individual and that every person is the expert of their own life. I am grateful for each and every opportunity to witness change! Therapy is a process of learning about your own ability to solve your problems and build your own toolbox. For children, it is about learning many different tools to use in the many situations they will find themselves in as the grow up. Telehealth Link: doxy.me/ganiece

Heidi Kuehn, MS, MA, LPC

There is a widespread implication in our society that difficult feelings are unacceptable or inconvenient. If I could assure you of anything, it would be that your emotions are valid and useful, no matter how uncomfortable they are. Let's use them as a guide in discovering what your mind and body are really trying to tell you. I want to support you in becoming a wise leader of yourself, not a prisoner of your pain. With each small step you make toward internal balance, external balance is not far behind.

Kristin Bailey, MS, LPC

Brené Brown once said, “We don’t have to do it alone, we were never meant to.” If you are to find yourself, your family, or your child struggling, the best thing you can do is seek out someone to listen and empathize with your situation. I have years of experience working in the mental health field. I primarily draw from Humanistic and Adlerian schools of psychology.
