James Stolz, LICSW, LADC

James Stolz, LICSW, LADC In my practice, I help people overcome their personal obstacles to change. Together, we identify those issues which we can change and those that we can accept. In the past 30 years, I have helped people create healthy movement in their lives and to develop a balanced design for living that can serve as a foundation for years to come. I strive to provide an atmosphere that is respectful and safe. I am trained in cognitive-behavioral therapy with a special focus on chemical dependency. I also have specialized training in Sexual Addiction, Accelerated Resolution Therapy, ADHD coaching and Wellness Coaching. Check out James's Psychology Today Page

Holly Robinson

Holly Robinson, LICSW

Holly Robinson, LICSW I believe in an empathic approach to therapy. It is important to me to meet clients where they are at, using a strengths-based and nonjudgmental approach. I draw from a variety of therapy modalities, including cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative therapy, motivational interviewing, illness management and recovery and dialectical behavioral therapy. Additionally, I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) for the treatment of trauma and PTSD. I believe in providing a safe and welcoming environment that allows individuals to effectively manage their lives and reach their highest potential. Check out Holly's Psychology Today Page
Terry Post

Terry Post LPCC, LADC

Terry Post, LPCC, LADC I help people overcome life’s challenges so that they can grow and find the happiness they desire.  I have a long history of working with those struggling with addiction as well as concerns related to sex and intimacy. From a mental health perspective, I work with clients who have anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship problems and some personality disorders. I use DBT (dialectical behavior therapy), solution focused, and reality therapy/choice theory believing that what we do and how we think ultimately creates how we feel. I also believe that creating and enjoying our attachments and relationships is an essential part of our wellbeing. I am also trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) for the treatment of trauma and PTSD. I welcome both adults and adolescent clients as well as some couples. I am sex positive and many of my clients identify with the LGBT community. I believe that creating and enjoying our attachments and relationships is an essential part of our wellbeing. I am also trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) for the treatment of trauma and PTSD.
Kathryn Murphy

Kathryn Murphy, MA, LPCC

Kathryn Murphy, MA, LPCC I enjoy meeting people where they’re at in life and working collaboratively to help guide through life’s journey. I am very much an empath, however I can have a compassionately straightforward approach. It’s been my privilege the past 10+ years to walk alongside individuals while they work on their mental and chemical health. I have experience with all adult populations, though I specialize in working with the LGBTQ+ community as well as the Native American communities. I typically work with people who have trauma, substance use issues, and/or mood disorders. I often utilize EMDR, CBT, and psychodynamic therapy while sometimes adding elements of DBT and IFS. My therapy dog Meeko also joins me in creating a healing space for everyone.

Todd Frickey, MA

Todd Frickey, MA Therapy is, first and foremost, a warm, safe, and trusting relationship between therapist and client. As I believe each person’s experience is unique, I work to tailor the therapeutic process to create a safe environment to heal and facilitate growth through an exploration of emotions, experiences, and relationships. I am passionate about supporting people dealing with concerns including depression, anxiety, family dynamics, traumatic experiences, emotion regulation, and interpersonal problems. I also have experience working with individuals who have co-occurring substance use and mental health concerns. I received my graduate degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Drake University and have worked with a diverse population of individuals, families, and groups.

Kathleen Gjevre

Kathleen Gjerve, MA, LPCC

Kathleen Gjerve, MA, LPCC Loving someone who struggle,s with addiction can be painful. It can be hard to watch someone you love experience the ups and downs of entering recovery and then falling back into active addiction. They can get caught up in their head looking for the perfect answer – or any answer – to solve their problems. Often people find themselves in an uncomfortable limbo of not knowing what to do in those moments of struggle. These are the moments that a professional outside the situation can provide a space for you to reflect and explore how to create a life with less pain and more joy. I hold an MA in Counseling, am an LADC, and received training at The Meadows in Arizona. The Meadows Model of codependency is the primary framework I use to help clients create a new way of being in relationships and to face challenges. In my life I have traveled many wrong paths. Life was often my only teacher -- because when I wasn’t willing to listen, it made itself heard. These life experiences, and healing from them, have given me a deep understanding of human folly and compassion for our foibles. Now I am able to combine this hard-earned life wisdom with my professional training to create a non-judgmental, empathetic, and respectful space for you to take a moment to focus on creating a life you love living. Together we will work to better understand how childhood experiences impact thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and ultimately your relationships. By incorporating The...

James Chadwick, LICSW

James Chadwick, LICSW Therapy is an art and a science; my practice, which incorporates both cognitive behavioral and attachment theories, strives to merge and encourage trust, vulnerability, empathy, and rapport alongside evidence-based practices to help you move toward your goals. Together, we will collaborate on solutions that leave you feeling more empowered and fulfilled and less stuck while gaining insight into presenting challenges that prompted therapy.
