Are you struggling with the aftermath of trauma, feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, or navigating a challenging life transition? Whether you’re dealing with the lingering effects of sexual abuse, childhood trauma, or adult-onset abuse, it can be difficult to find a path forward. You may also be a college student facing unique pressures, or someone experiencing grief and loss, unsure of how to move through the pain. Whatever you’re going through, it’s okay to seek help—you don’t have to do this alone.

Hi! I'm Ryan Woodzell. I know coming to therapy can be a scary thing. It takes courage, strength, and power to take the steps to go to and actively participate in the ways that you need. Things like trauma, family issues, depression and anxiety, questioning your faith, low self-esteem, and many others can push you to a place of feeling alone and inadequate. You may have had experiences with therapy that make you feel like it doesn't work or that it isn't for you. I would love to be able to join you in your journey, help you process and explore those difficulties, and move toward a better place in your life.

Cindy believes humans are physical, mental, emotional, sexual and spiritual beings thus the goal of therapy is to obtain health in all areas of one's being. I believe a client takes the first step to healing as soon as the counseling appointment is made. It's a privilege to observe transformation in a client on the road to hope and healing by focusing on the strengths from within the client. It is exciting to watch a couple go from the brink of divorce to a marriage better than ever.

My approach to therapy is to respect each individual as a whole person. I believe each person knows himself or herself best. Loss of jobs, relationships, chemical addiction, life transitions, trauma, abuse and the stress of day to day living come with an array of thoughts and emotions, which at some points in our lives can become overwhelming. We start to feel like nothing can get better, and begin to self-destruct or stay stuck, out of fear of the unknown or poor habits. I use an eclectic approach, pulling together different types of therapies tailored to what would be most beneficial to the particular client.

I believe counseling is a beautiful journey to healing and hope. Walking this journey together looks like addressing issues and problems that are unhelpful and unhealthy in a way that brings hope into the middle of what seems like a hopeless situation. I believe in the change that clients can achieve and experience.

Life can be a lot. Between work, school, pandemics, financial crisis... I could go on, and on. Some of us are also dealing with debilitating anxiety, depression, and health issues. Many people are seeing the effects in their relationships, their work, and their spiritual life. Now more than ever, it's important to have a sounding board. The old ways of navigating through life might need to be adjusted. You want things to be different, but you're not sure how. You're ready to change, you just need some guidance to find your way.
