Come As You Are Counseling & Consulting
Hello
As it is with counseling, my path to becoming a licensed counselor was never “linear”. In fact, coming from a small town and without the financial security, college was never a talked about option. However, this was part of my growth. As I grew into my path and started authoring my story, I participated in ways to expand my knowledge that coordinated with my beliefs and values. I surrounded myself with those who nurtured my goals. I opened myself to listening to my younger self, to learning from my clients. As these new chapters were being written, my purpose expanded. My goals became greater ideas for how I define health and wellbeing and what a community might look like if health was prioritized over dis-ease. I knew the direction I wanted my story to go, and so I continued by using hope and gratitude to turn my dreams into my story. I began to create an organization that would embrace these ideas of wellbeing. I started growing my network to plant those seeds of embodiment and wholeness and health. And now here we are, a team of committed, licensed and certified individuals who are honored to walk with you on your journey toward holistic wellbeing. No requirements-- Come As You Are, whole body, whole you!
