Our Practice
At Wellspring Counseling Services, our experience and training allow us to work with couples, families, and individuals who have conflict and communication barriers and who want to increase connection and closeness in their family lives. We also work with individuals experiencing dissociative disorders, depression, anxiety, panic disorders, domestic violence, trauma, PTSD, sexual trauma, and a variety of other concerns that keep a person from living their fullest life. We understand the individual as a part of a larger system rather than in isolation, and our therapy methods are aimed at helping each person relate to their environment and meet their personal goals.
As the director and owner of Wellspring, Jamie Herring is an EMDR therapist, which is a heavily researched approach that is effective for helping clients when they feel stuck in a thought process or feeling. She frequently uses Ego State techniques, which are particularly helpful for healing trauma and bringing wholeness to an individual.
Jamie Herring, LMFT
I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and specialize in working with couples, families, individuals, and EMDR therapy. My passion is to help couples strengthen their marriages and increase effective communication. I enjoy working with families to resolve conflicts and bring peace into the home. I have extensive experience with individuals, specifically adolescent and adult women.
I earned my Master’s degree in Counseling: Marriage and Family Therapy from Bethel University in 2006. Since then, I have gained extensive experience working with diverse families, couples, and individuals. With 20 years of experience as a therapist, including two years as a supervisor, I founded Wellspring Counseling Services, LLC, in Fort Wayne, Indiana, in August 2018.
I believe individuals and families are resilient and have a lot of internal strengths they can call upon to accomplish their goals. I am devoted to the work I do, and I hope we can work together toward hope and healing in your life.
Grace Berg, LCSW
Navigating life can often feel like juggling too many tabs open in your brain — emotions all over the place, motivation stuck on a coffee break, and self-esteem playing hard to get. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I provide practical support to help people get things back on track, heal from past traumas, find balance, and maybe even laugh a little along the way.
I help people work on emotional regulation, so they can boost their self-worth and build a life that feels right for them. My approach is all about creating a comfortable space where clients can grow, heal, and find practical ways to make life feel more manageable and empowering. I like to look at everyone as a whole person, and I use my education and training to see how all working parts can come together for my clients’ greater good.
Traci Smith, LCSW
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I provide mental health support and therapy services to individuals, families, and couples, while honoring and accepting the varied backgrounds, abilities, and belief systems of those whom I’m privileged to work alongside. I enjoy creating a safe and comfortable environment that allows people to explore their pasts, presents, and futures without judgment — as I work with them toward the ultimate goal of living their best possible lives.
With a Master’s degree in Social Work and a concentration in Mental Health and Addictions, I have gained extensive experience working from a trauma-informed perspective that includes developing safety and security inside and out. I believe we all have the skills to do more than just survive, and sometimes we just need some help and guidance in dusting off those skills so we can use them to thrive.
Abby Gabet, LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to supporting individuals through life transitions, anxiety, stress management, relationship challenges, and personal growth. Creating a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment is central to my approach — allowing clients to feel heard, valued, and empowered throughout the therapeutic process. I believe therapy should be a collaborative process that honors each person’s unique experiences, strengths, and goals while providing encouragement and practical tools for growth and healing.
Using evidence-based approaches tailored to each client’s individual needs, I focus on building strong therapeutic relationships grounded in empathy, professionalism, and compassion. My goal is to help clients strengthen coping skills, improve emotional well-being, and develop greater confidence in navigating life’s challenges. I am passionate about helping people move beyond simply getting through difficult seasons and toward creating healthier, more balanced, and fulfilling lives.
