The goal of Betterment Mental Health Counseling, Inc will be to provide personalized and effective mental health counseling to those who are experiencing poor mental health, suffer from mental illness and/or negative lifestyle choices. We offer individual counseling, in person and virtually (via Zoom). We will be seeing clients by appointment only with evening and Saturday appointments available.
Counseling can help you to develop a positive outlook about yourself and your life. Learn strategies and coping skills to deal with the varying degrees of stress that life presents to us. Build methods to improve your focus at work and to separate work from play/down time. Learn to improve your interpersonal relationships with family, and loved ones
At Betterment Mental Health, we understand that the world can be a stressful, and at times, a confusing place. Factoring in pandemics, political, and global events, it is quite common to feel overwhelmed. With counseling, our goal is to help you work through the negatives of the past, and the fears of the future, by focusing on YOU in the “here & now".
