Wellness & Courage was founded by 2 cousins, who had a shared dream to create a team of like-minded professionals with a desire to help others live their best lives. Wendy Johnson Poole and Jamy Hunter are third cousins and had never met. The two were introduced by other family members in 2016.

Wendy and Jamy immediately had a connection and knew that they shared a passion for helping others and wanting to create a team of other practitioners who had the same passion.Wellness & Courage was born in 2017. Becoming the best version of yourself is not always easy, but it's ALWAYS worth it.
Every relationship has its ups and downs. That's why it can be challenging to know when you need help in your relationship. It is common for one or both partners to be unhappy, feel disconnected, or feel that their needs for intimacy aren't being met at any time in a relationship. The majority of couples tend to seek therapy when they are at the end of their rope and "if counseling doesn't work then the marriage is over."
Occasional anxiety is a normal part of life. You might feel anxious when faced with a problem at work, before taking a test, or making an important decision. But anxiety disorders involve more than temporary and occasional worry or fear. For a person with an anxiety disorder, the anxiety does not go away and can get worse over time.
One result of trauma is that the brain (and body) thinks you are back in the trauma when triggered by something in the environment. EMDR therapy helps you reprocess and desensitize your trauma, to retrain your brain into understanding that you are NOT still living in that memory. It allows you to take some control back in your life.
Therapy through play is a counseling method used to help children communicate their inner experiences through the use of toys and play. Therapy through play is also called child-centered therapy and/or play therapy and is a non-pathologizing technique based on the belief that children have the internal drive to achieve wellness.

Wendy and her colleagues are amazing. "They changed by life" seems so trite. But it is true. They helped me discover tools and develop skills to live a more resilient, full life! Highly recommended.

Wellness & Courage is such a beautiful office. They keep the lobby so peaceful and serene. It feels like I’m walking into a spa. The staff are very helpful and supportive. The counselors and psychiatrist are all so amazing and helpful. Jamy Hunter, specifically, made me feel immediately comfortable and welcome. I highly recommend her, and everyone at the clinic for their psychiatry and counseling needs!
