Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and finding someone you feel comfortable talking to is incredibly important. I’m Antonette Ross, a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 20 years of experience in the mental health field. My goal is to create a warm, welcoming space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported without judgment.

I primarily work with adults who may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stressed, stuck, or simply trying to navigate changes in their lives and relationships. Sometimes you know exactly what is bothering you, and other times you may just know that you haven’t been feeling like yourself. Either way, you don’t have to figure it out alone.

My experience spans private practice, behavioral health care management, crisis intervention, and other clinical settings. More than anything, I believe in meeting people where they are and helping them recognize their strengths, find greater balance, and move toward a life that feels healthier and more fulfilling.

My philosophy is to approach each person as an individual with his or her own ability/willingness/readiness to work through the issues at hand. I believe our thought process can be our own worst enemy at times and I work to assist the client to be more aware of the pitfalls of these negatively charged thoughts. I combine a range of therapeutic approaches based on your distinct needs of the client. I provide counseling services for those looking to reduce and manage anxiety and depression, develop affirmative overall functioning, and obtain assistance in confronting life trials.

I have worked with ages 5-99, in school settings, residential and out-patient settings as well as detention settings. As a School Counselor for the past 20 years, I have worked with students and parents to navigate through a myriad of familial, relational and school related issues.

I am a licensed psychologist with extensive experience providing individual, couples, and group therapy to adults experiencing a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and life challenges. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, stress, chronic mental health concerns, and major life transitions. My goal is to provide a warm, supportive environment where you can better understand what is getting in the way, develop practical strategies for change, and build greater resilience and emotional well-being.

I earned my Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology from Louisiana Tech University and have trained and worked in a variety of clinical settings, including university counseling centers, inpatient and outpatient mental health programs, skilled nursing facilities, and community behavioral health agencies. My clinical experience includes diagnostic assessment, crisis intervention, individual and family psychotherapy, couples counseling, and working with adults managing chronic and complex mental health conditions.

Throughout my career, I have also held clinical leadership positions, including serving as a Clinical Director of Services and Training and as a Regional Director within behavioral health organizations. In these roles, I have overseen clinical quality, supervised and trained clinicians, developed professional training programs, and worked closely with multidisciplinary treatment teams. These experiences have given me a broad perspective on mental health and strengthened my ability to understand each client within the larger context of their relationships, experiences, environment, and overall well-being.

My name is Dr. Christopher Liano. With over 15 years of experience, I help individuals and couples build stronger, more fulfilling relationships and improve emotional well-being. I work with adults, couples, and families navigating anxiety, depression, PTSD, and other life challenges.

My approach is personalized, collaborative, and focused on meaningful, lasting growth. I help clients better understand their emotions, strengthen connections, and develop practical tools for everyday life.

Therapy with me is real, down-to-earth, and engaging—I bring honesty, humor, and compassion to create a space where you can grow, heal, and be yourself. Book with me here or at https://evolvetothrive9.com.
