Positive Connections Plus Providers

Carol Layne, LCSW

I have a varied background with a special focus on grief and loss issues. I thrive helping couples begin again and prioritize their relationship making it the “top of the list”. Also helping women to look at where their stress is coming from and teaching them how to nurture and love themselves is also a skill that I treasure. Over the years, I have worked with both men and women from a wide variety of backgrounds and love to help others share their story while reminding them that they are not on earth to journey it alone.

Aside from helping clients journey through life’s cliffhangers and valleys, I enjoy keeping physically fit, singing at the top of my lungs with my headphones planted firmly in place and also watching new television programs on Netflix with my hubby. Most importantly, besides my husband, children and grandchildren, chocolate is my passion!

Chester Mardis, LCPC, CS

As a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and Clinical Supervisor, I’m here to guide you through healing, growth, and transformation. I grew up in the red-rock landscapes of southern Utah, where my family settled after my father’s service in the Air Force. I studied psychology at BYU-Idaho, where I gained early experience working in the animal lab—teaching students and exploring the science of behavior firsthand.

After college, I supported individuals in an in-patient setting at Intermountain Hospital in Boise, then deepened my understanding through a Master’s degree in Community Counseling at Gonzaga University in Spokane, Washington.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working alongside people navigating all kinds of life terrain—from co-leading classes in anger management and parenting, to supporting recovery from substance use, to helping individuals, couples, and families find clarity and connection. Whether it’s trauma, depression, anxiety, anger, defiance, parenting challenges, attention difficulties, or communication struggles—we face it together.

In our work, I will draw from a wide range of approaches—Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy, Emotion-Focused Therapy, and Person-Centered methods—tailored to support you down the path you’re on.

Carrie Miller- Certified Peer Support

I am a dedicated behavioral health professional with lived experience and specialized training in peer and family support services. As a Certified Peer Support Specialist and Certified Family Support Partner, I am passionate about helping individuals and families navigate mental health, recovery, and life challenges with compassion, understanding, and hope.

My work is grounded in empathy, advocacy, and the belief that recovery is possible for everyone. I provide support through active listening, encouragement, resource connection, and practical guidance while empowering individuals and families to build resilience, confidence, and meaningful goals.

With a strong commitment to person-centered care, I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where people feel heard, respected, and empowered throughout their journey. I value collaboration, authenticity, and the power of shared experience in promoting healing and growth.

Isaiah Marchant – Case Manager, CBRS provider

Hi, I’m Isaiah! I work as a Case Manager and CBRS provider, where I support individuals and families in building life skills, overcoming challenges, and connecting with helpful resources. I strive to create a supportive and non-judgmental environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered.

Before entering this field, I spent time working in the medical field, which helped shape my understanding of client care and overall wellness. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Liberal Arts with a pre-social work and pre-med emphasis from Southern Virginia University and am currently working toward my MSW at Western New Mexico University.

When I’m not working, I love spending time with my family—they are the most important part of my life. I’m also a big fan of basketball and football and enjoy staying active whenever possible.

Positive Connections Plus provides access to education, services, and supports with compassion, empathy, and respect to meet the behavioral and medical health needs of all individuals and families. Our mission is to empower you to actively pursue life according to your unique individual goals.
