Licensed Mental Health Counselor
Anna Hall
"I am worthy of the time it takes to do the things that heal my heart." - Morgan Harper Nichols. Counseling is an opportunity to step into this worthiness – to take time away from life’s distractions and attend to the wounded, stuck, or neglected spaces inside.
