Systems, not symptoms

Most practices treat symptoms.
We treat systems.

When trauma lives in your body, when burnout has become your baseline, when your relationship feels beyond repair, talking alone isn't enough. We bridge the gap between mental health and physical wellness with care that sees the whole picture.

Every client receives a personalized care plan built around their health history, lifestyle, nervous system, and goals. This is not one-size-fits-all. This is care designed around you.

Dr. Regina Ransom

Founder & Clinical Director

Dr. Regina Ransom built New Birth Family Counseling on a conviction she developed across decades of clinical work: that mental health cannot be separated from physical health, and that real healing requires looking at the whole person, not just the presenting problem.

She holds two doctorates, one in counselor education and clinical supervision and one in mind-body medicine, alongside a background spanning nursing, clinical psychology, forensic psychology, addiction counseling, psychiatric mental health, and natural medicine. That combination is why NBFC can look at the mind and the body in the same room.

A U.S. Navy veteran who served as a nuclear engineer, Dr. Ransom spent her service finding the actual fault in complex systems rather than patching what showed on the gauge. It's the same instinct behind this practice, and it shapes her work with service members, veterans, and military families, who make up a significant part of her caseload.

New Birth Family Counseling helped me realize how much my trauma was affecting my relationship with my husband. I am thankful for their guidance and support in helping me regain my power.

Advanced tools for deeper healing

We draw from a wide range of evidence-based modalities, integrative practices, and diagnostics, always selected based on what your situation calls for rather than a standard protocol.

EMDRBrainspottingSomatic therapyCBTDBTEFTMindfulnessFunctional labsTherapeutic nutritionNervous system regulationSpiritual alignment
EMDR & Brainspotting
Bilateral stimulation techniques that help process trauma held in the body and nervous system, often reaching material that talk therapy alone has not.
Functional medicine & lab testing
Comprehensive panels that can surface hormonal imbalances, gut issues, nutrient gaps, and inflammation, all of which can contribute to anxiety, low mood, and fatigue.
Somatic & mind-body practices
Body-centered approaches that help you regulate your nervous system, release held tension, and reconnect with physical sensations of safety and grounding.
Therapeutic nutrition & lifestyle
Nutrition and supplement guidance tailored to your lab results, supporting the biology that underpins how you feel day to day.
