Hello! It’s a pleasure to meet you. My name is Tina Creighton. I was born and raised in the area as the youngest of five children, where a strong connection to family and community was instilled in me at an early age. These values helped guide me toward a career in mental health.

I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Following graduation, I obtained my independent licensure in Ohio and later in West Virginia.

With nearly two decades of experience, I have provided services across a variety of settings, including traditional and alternative schools, correctional facilities, emergency departments, community mental health centers, and private practice. I have experience in crisis response and in treating a wide range of concerns, including autism, oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), ADHD, bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, personality disorders, and trauma across the lifespan.

My greatest sense of purpose comes from helping individuals reach their goals. I believe each person is the expert on their own life—they do the hard work, and I am honored to guide and support them along the way.

In my free time, I enjoy being outdoors, especially spending time in the woods and fishing, as well as being with my family. My husband and I are parents to three wonderful children, two of whom have special needs.

I am honored to serve my community by offering individual, family, and group therapy services for individuals ages 5 and up.

Hi, and thank you for taking the time to learn more about me and my approach to therapy.

I was born in Ashland, KY, and raised in the small rural community of Rush in Boyd County. In 2023, I moved to West Virginia with my husband, Steve. We share our home with five dogs and two cats, and I’ve always had a deep love for animals. Outside of work, I enjoy board games, music, concerts, and spending time outdoors.

I earned my Master of Science in Social Work from the University of Louisville in 2019, after completing my Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy and Religious Studies at Morehead State University in 2012. I often joke with my family that I found a way to get paid to talk about life and philosophy—and in many ways, that’s what I do now. I help people explore their lives, clarify their goals, and take steps toward achieving them.

In therapy, I use an eclectic approach because no two people are alike. Each client’s story is unique, so treatment should be tailored to their individual needs. My goal is always to provide respect, care, and a non-judgmental space where clients feel safe and supported.

I work with clients of all ages and backgrounds, addressing concerns such as depression, anxiety, trauma, religious trauma, self-esteem issues, and challenges faced by the LGBTQ+ and Veterans/Military communities, among others.

I understand how overwhelming life can feel at times. Let me walk alongside you—helping you build coping skills for the difficult moments and making room to fully enjoy the positive ones.

TELEHEALTH ONLY- EVENINGS AND WEEKENDS

Hello! I am Emily Jones, a Supervised Psychologist under the supervision of Sane Space’s owner, Chrissy Jackson. I received my Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology from West Liberty University in 2025, but I have been working in the counseling/social work field for many years prior to completing my education. I have always held a passion for helping others and being a safe space for those who find themselves struggling. Whether they are struggling with mental illness, the stresses of life, or the weight of past traumas, it is always a privilege to be the one to help share the weight and find new solutions for people. I have experience working with a wide range of demographics and a wide range of mental health struggles, include Depressive Disorders, Anxiety Disorders, Mood and Emotional Dysregulation Disorders, ADHD, and trauma. My therapeutic style is very relaxed – I believe in appreciating the good and bad aspects of being human, and I value not taking oneself too seriously. I value meeting a client where they are at and being very adaptable to the variety of life experiences coming into my office, as I believe that is the best way to form a collaborative and strong therapeutic relationship. I have training and experience with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Psychoanalysis, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Behavioral Therapy, but I am always expanding my knowledge base! I will be providing my services through telehealth and I will have availability for weekend sessions.

I have a particular passion for working with teenagers, but I am always open to new experiences and new individuals!

Hello there! Over the past eight years, I’ve honed my expertise as a therapist, focusing on how one’s identity influences their approach to life’s hurdles. I perceive the therapist’s role as a dual function – part guide, part mirror – assisting individuals in self-exploration while reflecting their unique strengths. Actively integrating client feedback into sessions is pivotal in fine-tuning our work for maximum impact. My core belief revolves around the idea that understanding our identity greatly strengthens our ability to navigate life’s trickiest challenges. I’m delighted that you’re considering Sane Space as a part of your path, and I’m eager to understand more about you.

Hi! I am Samantha Louis, a Supervised Psychologist and Temporary Permit Counselor who recently earned my master’s degree in Counseling Psychology. My experiences include a clinical internship at a university career counseling center, where I supported individuals as they navigated mental health challenges related to their identity and life direction. In my work, I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), person-centered, and solution-focused approaches. I believe therapy should be tailored to each individual—I take time to understand what’s most helpful for each client and adjust my approach based on their unique needs and goals.

I’m passionate about creating a warm, supportive space where clients feel heard and empowered to make meaningful change. I’m looking forward to the opportunity to work with you and support you in your journey!
