Russell Payne, LPC-S, MEd.

Before becoming a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in 1996, I served as a police officer for 8 years, learning the importance of early intervention for children in need. I've worked in private practice, specializing in various counseling areas. My mission, grounded in Christian values, is to provide healing and recovery for all in need.

For the past 23 years, I've specialized in working with students with Behavior Disorders, Emotional Disturbances, and Autism Spectrum Disorders in school settings. I also collaborate closely with parents, families, school staff, and professionals to support student growth.

As a Christian, my mission is to offer love, healing, and recovery to all who are hurting. I consider it a privilege to be part of the healing process and witness the return of joy in my clients' lives.

Russell specializes in children and adolescents, behavior problems, play therapy, adults, family and marriage counseling, Christian/faith-based counseling, men's issues depression and anxiety, and general life stresses and stressors.
