Samuel Adkins, LCSW
“I’ve spent over 20 years working in mental health, and I keep it pretty straightforward—no scripts, no labels, no assumptions. Some people come in with a lot going on. Others just want to think clearer, handle things better, or stay sharp. Either way works. I don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach—no assumptions, no preset path. Whether you’re dealing with something specific or just want to operate at a higher level, our work is focused, practical, and built around what actually works for you. Either way, the goal is simple: real conversations that lead to real results.”

My top priority as a therapist is the well-being of my clients, and I am dedicated to creating a safe and nurturing space for everyone who walks through my door. I want my clients to feel supported and understood, no matter their personal background, race, ethnicity or cultural history. As one who has navigated many different environments alike and different from my own, I consider this to a unique and advantageous experience making it very easy and rewarding when working with new clients! This also fuels my passion for working with transracial adoption and racial identity development.

Amberlee Wesselhoft, LAC
When we experience trauma, severe life stressors or take on too much in life, it is not uncommon for our lives to feel as if the are unraveling. I love helping people get their lives back on track, in the best way that works for them, not how I think it should look. I know that no single approach works for all clients and trained in various therapies to help clients reach their best life. My background includes an MS in Counseling from Grand Canyon University and a BS from the University of South Alabama. I obtained all this education while serving 4 years active duty in the United States Coast Guard.
