Beginning counseling is a brave and meaningful step, and it is an honor to walk alongside those who take it. The goal of counseling is to create a safe, encouraging space where people feel understood, valued, and empowered to grow.

This practice is led by an Associate Licensed Counselor under the supervision of Anna Barksdale, MSCP, LPC-S. As part of this role, counseling is provided with full training and licensure while receiving ongoing professional guidance to ensure the highest quality of care. Services are available for individuals, couples, and families, with a focus on anxiety, depression, life transitions, and relationship challenges.

At the heart of this work is the belief that every person’s story matters. Whether facing overwhelming stress, navigating grief, working through family conflict, or longing for a greater sense of peace, counseling offers a space to process, heal, and discover new ways forward. The approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to the unique needs of each person.

Outside of the counseling room, values such as connection, authenticity, and everyday practices that bring hope and balance remain central. We meet clients where they are and walk with them toward greater peace, deeper connection, and renewed confidence.
