Dr. Jason Reasor
I has been counseling individuals and couples since July 2007 while serving as a pastor and spiritual leader. My desire to help people led to me completing my MA in counseling from Midwestern Baptist Seminary and have been working as a professional counselor since August 2018. I recently completed my doctorate in professional counseling from Mississippi College in August 2021. My approach to counseling is holistic in nature and I believe in counseling the “whole” individual (thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and social considerations). I use an integrative design of various counseling theories that utilizes a broad array of both evidence-based and protocol-driven interventions which has shown positive outcomes for individuals experiencing mental health struggles as well as substance abuse clients. I love working with all my clients and have experience with children, adolescents, adults, as well as veterans dealing with trauma. I look forward to hearing from you and helping you to become the best version of yourself!

Chan-Tal Wilborn
Life experiences influence how we think, feel, and respond to the world around us, but they do not determine who we are or who we can become. My approach to therapy is rooted in the belief that while our experiences may shape our story, they do not have to define our future. I believe every individual possesses strengths, resilience, and purpose that can be uncovered and strengthened throughout the healing process. I provide a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where individuals feel seen, heard, valued, and empowered. Together, we will explore the connection between the heart and mind, gaining insight into how life experiences influence thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and relationships. My goal is to help clients build resilience, develop healthy coping strategies, and move beyond survival toward restoration, purpose, wellness, and wholeness.
