I am Angela Davis, a licensed clinical social worker with both a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Social Work. I have experience working with individuals facing anxiety, depression, adjustment disorders, grief, and trauma. I am passionate about supporting clients through challenging seasons of life and providing a safe, compassionate space where they can heal, grow, and develop the tools needed to move forward. Whether that means returning to normalcy or discovering a new path, I am committed to helping clients create a life that aligns with their values and goals.

My approach is grounded in humanistic principles: every person has the capacity for growth, healing, and positive change. I strive to create a space where clients feel seen, heard, and valued. I work collaboratively with clients, focusing on their strengths and goals, to help them gain self-awareness, build resilience, and move toward a more fulfilling life.

My hope is to provide a safe and compassionate space where you can explore your experiences, discover your strengths, and move toward the life you envision for yourself. If you are ready to take the next step in your journey, I would be honored to walk alongside you as you work toward healing, growth, and a greater sense of purpose.

Hi, I'm Dr. Troy Pharis, a licensed professional counselor with over 10 years of experience and a doctoral degree in health science. For the past five years, my clinical work has focused on active-duty military, veterans, first responders, and their families—people who often carry high-stress experiences long after service ends. Having served 20 years myself, I understand life in uniform and aim to provide a space where you don't have to explain the basics to be understood. I typically work with clients who are dealing with trauma, stress, anxiety, irritability, difficulty adjusting, or feeling stuck with no momentum for change. 

I primarily use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), an action-oriented approach that helps you stop getting stuck and start moving toward what matters most to you. I also incorporate EMDR to help process past events that may still be impacting you. Clients can expect a laid-back, informal environment with real conversations and tools that actually work. 

You don't have to have everything figured out to begin or even know where to start—if you're ready to move toward what matters most, I'm here to help you take that next step. 

I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and nationally certified counselor (NCC). I received my Bachelor of Science in psychology from Charleston Southern University and my Master of Science in clinical mental health counseling, including a Graduate Certificate in Contemporary Theory in Mental Health Services, from Capella University. I have worked in the mental health field since 2013. I have worked with military/veterans, geriatrics, teens, children, LGBTQ community, PTSD, anxiety, grief, eating disorders, neurodevelopmental disorders, schizophrenia, substance abuse, first-time mothers, job development, and anger management. 

I foster a client-centered CBT and DBT approach. I am certified in CBT for depression and suicide, DBT, CAMS-Care, ASIST, IPS, and anger management. I believe creating a safe and nonjudgmental space and building a genuine rapport is essential to aiding individuals in reaching personal goals. I base my services on the ACA Code of Ethics and state laws. 

I look forward to working with all potential clients and sending a warm welcome to each of you.
