Jesse Osborn, LCSW

Therapy

It goes without saying: Life isn’t always easy. We encounter stress, loss, uncertainty, and painful experiences that may not register as “trauma” right away, but leave a mark. Over time, these experiences, unresolved, can shape how we see ourselves, relate to others, our attitudes and actions, our worthiness, and what we believe we deserve. For many, therapy may seem unfamiliar or uncomfortable-- self-care can feel like weakness. Often though, it's simply a choice to stop carrying everything alone and slow down, make sense of your experiences, and understand how your past may still be shaping your present.

If you’re very logical, self aware, analytical and finding it hard to drop into the body, I could be helpful to you. I use patience, compassion, movement and mindfulness activities. I use story, imagery, metaphor, and mediums like movies, TV and music to help you access your inner world. I am trauma informed in my approach to working with clients.

Kevin Schwarz, LCSW

Therapy

Whether you have been diagnosed with ADHD or believe you may be a little “neuro-spicy,” you deserve support that understands the complexity of your challenges. That complexity can look like trauma from a lifetime of struggle, less than healthy family dynamics, executive dysfunction, perfectionism, or co-occurring disorders like Depression & Anxiety. Together, we will find what works with how your brain works. We will build acceptance of your executive functioning differences and develop tools to limit their impact. We will challenge beliefs & thoughts formed through trauma and rediscover your sense of identity.

Gary Bynum, LCSW

Therapy

What kind of Therapist am I? I am compassionate. I listen without judgment. I acknowledge my client’s experiences.  I encourage and support my clients without interrupting or interfering with their process of self-discovery that enables them to uncover what hurts and what is needed to repair it. From my many life experiences and educational background as a Therapist, Counselor, and Minister, I fully understand how-as a human being-our thoughts and feelings can be overwhelming, at times. And in those times is when help is most needed. That is the kind of Therapist, I am.
