About

Hope. Healing. Lasting Change.

Welcome. Reaching out for support takes courage, and I consider it a privilege to walk alongside clients on their journey toward healing and growth. I founded Paynters Counseling Center to provide compassionate, evidence-based care for individuals, couples, and families facing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, and life's transitions. My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your unique goals, creating a safe space where you can gain insight, build resilience, strengthen relationships, and move forward with confidence and hope.
