Offering Mental Health and Wellness since 2015.
Our Team of Purpose is here to Serve you.
Embrace Counseling and Consulting was inspired by wanting to be a resource of Hope for others. Through this concept, Embrace Founder realized most people struggle with giving themselves Grace and being comfortable with promoting self-love. On purpose, the flowers, butterflies, the sea and trees are placed throughout each page to represent transformation. Helping others navigate their life’s journey by integrating Grace, Love and Hope into the therapy session helps the client build a foundation that includes the mind, body and spirit to create a vision that they can envision for themselves, transform their lives and find their own sense of purpose.

Hello there, I am so glad you’re here! Whether you are looking for premarital, marital, or individual counseling you have come to the right place. Did you know that having healthy relationships actually helps us live longer and have fewer illnesses?! We can get into that when we meet, but I want to highlight the key word in that sentence: HEALTHY. Not perfect. Definitely not toxic. HEALTHY. So how do we develop, maintain, or reestablish healthy relationships? I am so glad you asked! My name is Tina and I am an Associate Professional Counselor, Master’s level Marriage and Family Therapist, and Certified Prepare & Enrich Facilitator. I specialize in helping couples and individuals work through their relationship dynamics, communication, and conflict in healthy and sustainable ways. With training in anxiety and trauma, I also empower individuals to navigate stressors utilizing their internal strengths. I’m going to be real with you, we will have uncomfortable conversations and we will need to look at your past and family history. I know that may be difficult, but we will navigate those areas in a safe and purposeful way. My approach to counseling is collaborative, faith based, and clinically informed which means we will work as a team and navigate the complexity of the process utilizing faith and science. If you’re ready to take the next step in your relational growth, I would love to hear from you. Let’s build relationships of quality together!
