Mind Heart Counseling

Mind Heart Counseling offers an Integrative, Experiential, and Contemplative therapeutic approach to enhance health and well being.  Its guiding principals are aligned with practical World Wisdom traditions, in conjunction with Eastern and Western psychology.  Holistic approaches are offered to incorporate a balance of body, mind, and heart.
