Dr. Rose Shelton
Everyone has an idea of who they are, who they once were, and who they would like to be. The dream of being one’s ideal self can be achieved or hindered with one of the most powerful things we hold, our thoughts. These thoughts can be from the past, from our experiences or consist of beliefs taught to us by others. Our thoughts impact how we feel and how we behave.
My goal, as a therapist, is to help you find solutions that work for you on an individual basis. I work with you as you wade through the sea of non-beneficial and irrational thoughts and experiences to find resolve, comfort, and enlightenment. There are no magical thoughts or quick fixes. However, using various techniques and long-standing approaches with proven results, we can work together to figure out what thoughts and behaviors are the ones holding you back from being your best self and living your best life. I use a number of approaches from Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Humanistic Therapy, Psychodynamic to Hypnosis to assist client’s in working through current conflicts in life and bringing about their desires for themselves.
Whether you want to talk, are looking for support through difficult times, or looking to make real change in your life, we can work together to achieve dreams, meet goals and rise above the ashes. Using my background as a mental health therapist, a certified addictions counselor, and specializations in spirituality, grief, multiculturalism, and hypnosis, I am sure we can find a way to work together toward your goal of well-being.

I am Tiff Majette, a Licensed Graduate Marriage and Family Therapist.
I understand that it can be a difficult decision to begin therapy for many people, however, being able to find a genuine and intentional person with integrity to support you along your therapeutic journey should not be one. I can assure you that my goals are to support you through your life challenges and help you reach your goals. I am passionate about mental health and breaking stigmas about therapy for BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ populations.

I utilize therapeutic approaches such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. I am certified in sex therapy and grief counseling.
Learning how to navigate this thing called life can be hard, let’s do it together.

Destiny Nettles
As a Marriage and Family Therapy intern, I hope to help individuals, couples, and families normalize and navigate challenging emotions and conflicts that arise in their lives. My aim is to facilitate a safe environment for you to explore and openly share difficult emotions and unmet needs so we can build positive healthy relationships together. Prior to pursuing a career in marriage and family therapy, I served in the U.S Army, so I am intimately familiar with the unique challenges couples and families face in the military.
It is important to acknowledge that traumatic experiences can impact the quality of our relationships. Childhood abuse and neglect, serious illness, combat experiences, and infidelity often have long-lasting effects on our ability to effectively communicate our feelings and needs to loved ones. By strengthening our present attachment bonds and tackling unhelpful thought patterns, we can work together to decrease traumatic stress and establish healing relationships.
Healing can be a lifelong journey, but with deliberate small steps, I believe that anyone can find peace and develop more fulfilling relationships with their loved ones.

I am also a certified alcohol and drug counselor who has been working with individuals living with substance abuse disorders for 8 years, as well as a board approved supervisor for drug and alcohol counselors.

With prior experience serving individuals with co-occurring disorders, I am aware of life struggles and the barriers that individuals face in seeking support during life's difficult times. Utilizing evidence-based approaches such as Motivational Interviewing(MI), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy, you can expect to be provided a safe space to explore your past, process your current reality and encourage planning for your desired future.

Let's work together in getting you to where you want to be.
Chike Okenwa
As a clinical mental health counseling graduate intern, I am deeply committed to creating culturally responsive, affirming spaces where clients, especially adolescents from underserved communities, can safely explore their identity, navigate emotional struggles, and develop a stronger sense of self. My goal as a counselor is to help others feel seen and supported, particularly those who have internalized shame, anxiety, or low self-worth due to systemic neglect or personal hardship. I understand these challenges intimately, having navigated many of them myself, and I believe strongly in the healing power of empathy, representation, and early intervention.
While pursuing counseling, I have worked as an employment specialist serving returning citizens, domestic violence survivors, and justice-affected individuals. I’ve also worked as a lead teacher and registered behavior technician, supporting the behavioral and emotional development of children with diverse needs. These experiences have affirmed my commitment to helping people overcome trauma, build resilience, and reclaim their narratives. I aim to blend clinical expertise with cultural sensitivity and lived experience, working not just as a therapist, but as an advocate and ally for those whose stories too often go unheard.
