Our Providers

Hi, I’m Will Knapple, Executive Director at Wholistic Health. I’ve spent over a decade working in the community and development services field, and I’m passionate about making mental health, wellness, and professional development services more accessible and better understood by the public.

At Wholistic Health, I offer a range of developmental and professional services, including Career Development Coaching, Career & Educational Assessments, and College Testing. As a Certified Career Coach and Navigator, I love helping people explore their options—whether they’re launching a new career, switching paths, or preparing to go back to school.

In addition to running operations and supporting our amazing team of providers, I’m also a Certified Professional Biller (CPB). I provide consulting and support for billing, credentialing, and administrative operations, helping providers and organizations stay on track and thrive.

I’m always happy to connect—whether you’re an individual looking for guidance or a provider or agency seeking support around contracting, program development, or operations. Let’s talk about how I can help you move forward.

I’m Shelby and my goal is to help you grow from your struggles, heal from your pain, and move forward to where you want to be in your life. I promise to walk beside you in your journey to healing and wholeness with professional and confidential care. I am trained in EMDR and incorporate its techniques to suit all ages. I work with anxiety disorders, depression, mood disorders, PTSD and trauma using CBT and DBT techniques. 

Hi I’m Maria! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and hold a certification as a Registered Play Therapist™. I work with individuals ages 4-18, along with their caregivers. As an RPT™, I have had extensive education, training and supervision in the field of play therapy. Like adults, children can have difficult times and can benefit from counseling. However, the approach used with young children may look quite a bit different than the ones used with an adult. Play therapy uses the language that children know best- PLAY- to assist with communicating things that they may be unable to communicate with words. To learn more about play therapy and its effectiveness, you can visit the Association for Play Therapy at a4pt.org.

I’m Paula I have been a counselor in multiple settings for over 30 years including a psychological examiner for the Van Buren school district for 20 of those years! I enjoy working with children and adults individually and in family and marital counseling.  I am pleased to be able to provide psychological testing for learning and behavioral issues including ADHD, Autism, Dyslexia, etc. I aim to help others understand themselves better and grow with that knowledge. 

Hi, I'm Maureen. I am a Licensed Certified (Masters) Social Worker (LCSW) and have a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education. I've worked as a child and family therapist for more than 35 years in clinic and school-based settings. My true passion is working with children ages 4 to 10 years old and their families. Children, like adults., can learn coping skills and ways to better deal with their feelings and behaviors. I enjoy helping parents/caregivers and their children with childhood behaviors including ADHD, Trauma, anxiety, anger issues, oppositional/defiant behaviors, peer relationships and other childhood difficulties. It is important that children get the help they need because they are our future! 

 Hello! I’m Sarah, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I specialize in supporting adults who are ready to embrace change in their lives. I understand that growth can be challenging, especially for those who have experienced trauma. I take great satisfaction in helping individuals realize that their past doesn't dictate their future and that they hold the power to shape their own paths. My aim is to create a safe and supportive environment where positive change can flourish. I primarily work with anxiety disorders, depression, and PTSD, employing CBT and DBT techniques to guide my clients.

My approach is person-centered and strengths-based, drawing from ACT, CBT, DBT, EFIT, IFS, SFBT, and RCT. I provide compassionate care to adults both in-clinic and through telehealth, walking with you on your unique journey toward healing and growth.
