Carol Stilson, LPC
Hi, I’m Carol — part therapist, part coach, part hope-spreader (think Johnny Appleseed with a therapy license and a slightly twisted sense of humor). I am a non-traditional therapist. I’ve spent years sitting with people in their darkest moments — psychiatric hospitals, addiction programs, crisis hotlines — which taught me one thing: real change is possible, even when it feels impossible. I blend Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), EMDR for trauma, plenty of laughter, and zero judgment to help you stop fighting your pain and start moving through it.

Cynthia Keesee, LPC
Life doesn’t come with a manual—life is hard. Sometimes we just want someone to listen, without taking sides. We want space to explain what’s going on and check if our feelings are valid. We can get stuck in our own heads, worried about what others will think—often after judging ourselves enough already. I’m nonjudgmental and laid back. I believe most people are too hard on themselves and many of us aren’t sure how to show our emotions. I’ve worked with a wide range of individuals facing mental health challenges, and I believe we all encounter mental health struggles at some point in our lives.
