Steve Olivas family care center
Steve Olivas, PsyD - Clinic Director

You won’t be intimidated, shamed, or disappointed. I’ve been doing this
professionally since 1991, and have helped thousands of clients between then and now.


I have heard many stories sitting in my chair–yours will not shock or offend me.

Chanella Clark family care center
Chanella Clark, Ed.S, LPCC, LPC-MHSP

Therapy will allow you to make meaning of our difficult life experiences and open up to new ways of thinking, feeling, and being. I strive to provide a safe and supportive environment where clients can learn to identify and express your emotions effectively, develop healthy ways of coping with difficult emotions, improve the quality of relationships, and increase self-esteem and sense of self-worth.

James Bender family care center
James Bender, PsyD

We are all on our own unique journey in life. At times, we come across obstacles that get in the way of living our ideal life. Together, we will not only work to identify your unique goals and values, but also work together to overcome the barriers so that you can return to living a life you find meaningful and fulfilling. I specialize in treating depressive, anxiety, and trauma-related disorders, as well as substance use disorders and severe mental illnesses. I look forward to helping you on your journey.

Family Care Center Provider
Madison Gentry, LPC

Whoever comes to into therapy is seeking something, whether that be deeper and more satisfying connections in their lives, relief from emotional pain, help with processing difficult emotions and/or life situations. Some will find it easy and know exactly where to begin and others may not – that’s okay. I am of the mind that we do not have to have it all figured out, but it helps to have as much support as we can. It takes courage to begin treatment because this means starting the difficult but fulfilling task of working on yourself. My goal as a therapist is to build a genuine connection with whoever walks in my door and process the ache that is guiding them to come to therapy with honesty and compassion.

Abbey Fitch Porter, LPC-MHSP

“Knowing oneself comes from attending with compassionate curiosity to what is happening within.” – Gabor Mate


My goal as a therapist is to walk alongside you as you move toward your authentic self. This “waking up” process – the ability to feel deeply and genuinely express one’s feelings that make one authentic – is what brings people together in true relationship. Together we can explore what traumas in your life may be keeping you stuck in the past, thus limiting your ability to experience present-day beauty and
joy. 

Abbie Ayers family care center
Abbie Ayers, Clinic Administrator

With extensive experience as a behavioral healthcare administrator, I have had the privilege of working in both the non-profit and private sectors. Throughout my career, I have dedicated myself to building successful programs and developing high-performing teams that effectively address the needs of individuals in need of mental health support. One of the core beliefs that fuels my work is the understanding that individuals should not be defined by their trauma. I am committed to creating a supportive and empowering environment that fosters growth and resilience.
