Kim McGuiness Counselor/Therapist; Clinical Director

M.Ed., LPC, NCC

When working with Kim your initial reaction will be one of comfort and relief. Kim recognizes how difficult it can be to make the choice to see a counselor. She understands the feeling of dread in finding the right fit and more importantly finding someone that is willing to do more than listen. Kim knows how we all find ways to rationalize our feelings, yet wonder if there is more to life. She recognizes how we carry anxiousness and sadness and how that can lead to feeling overwhelmed and influence how we react at home, work and school.

Kim believes many of us hold onto our experiences so tightly they impact not only our thoughts, but create symptoms in our bodies and put stress on how we communicate with our family and friends. Kim’s 20 years of experience in human resources and consulting shows up in sessions in how she helps clients find strategies that work for them as individuals, in relationships with others, or as a family. It has been said that "Kim helps clients create a strategy toolkit for themselves to use and help them feel real change". She is convinced we each hold a purpose in life and she is eager to help you interrupt old patterns that are no longer working for you in order to feel a freedom in being the person you know you can be.

Kim completed her M.Ed. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Missouri St. Louis after past corporate, consulting and inpatient clinical work.  Kim works with individuals dealing with a variety of struggles and has been trained or certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Gottman Couple’s Therapy, Mindfulness, Grief, Play Therapy, Safe Zone, Assessing and Managing Suicide Risk. Kim is a member of the American Counseling Association, Honor Society, and certified as an Ability Ally for Inclusion.  As Clinical Director Kim teams with the owner to provide oversight, vision, and feedback on all clinical/coaching functions and support roles within Get Centered.

Deb Crawford Counselor/Therapist, Board Certified Neurotherapist

M.Ed., LPC, BCN

Deb believes that each person is a unique combination of identities and life stories that contribute to who they are. Sometimes things happen to us that shape us deeply and it takes further exploration and a non-judgmental space to help us learn to change some of those hardwired patterns and build our resilience. Deb helps her clients to explore where their patterns developed, what contributes to them now, and helps give her clients knowledge and tools to help them grow and heal.  She recognizes the power of creating an environment of curiosity and calm.  Through the use of humor, metaphors and a down to earth counseling style, Deb will be the encouragement and support you are looking for to feel like someone has your back.

Deb completed her M.Ed. at the University of Missouri – St. Louis in 2017. She specializes in treating trauma, anxiety, depression, LGBTQ+, and Kink+ populations.
