Jesse Osborn, LCSW
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.

Gary Bynum, LCSW
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.
