Mental Health and Behavior

Closed from noon to 1 p.m. weekdays.

Behavioral health counseling employs psychotherapeutic principals and health psychology in order to help patients understand the role of the brain/mind in the process of healing or the possible creation/exacerbation of disease in the body.

We aim to help people feel more empowered over their perceptions of experience and therefore become more proficient in understanding the role of emotions in the health process.
