Mindful Counseling GR is a counseling practice committed to serving the greater Grand Rapids area by providing the highest quality counseling and psychotherapy services to our clients. To best serve the Grand Rapids community, we have three different locations. Each therapist has a dedicated office at a specific location so be sure to note which location your therapist practices at.
Every story is different. Every person is different. For that reason, each of the therapists at Mindful Counseling GR strives to create a welcoming and inclusive environment for clients of all ages, backgrounds, experiences, and stories. We encourage you to read through the bios of each therapist to see which person may be the best fit for you. Every day your child is bombarded with various messages and stories of how to act and who to be.
Finding their way amidst the messages can be overwhelming, to say the least. We help hurting, anxious, and angry kids and teens learn how to feel and express their emotions in effective and sustainable ways.

Whichever is the case for you, your most authentic self naturally develops survival strategies to protect itself in the aftermath.
This tends to work for you on some level until you reach a point when simple survival is no longer enough and you start to notice that a deep desire for a more authentic and life-giving way of being in the world is beginning to slowly wake up.
This desire can be disruptive and scary at times because it is calling you to leave the relative safety and familiarity of your survival strategies in order to move on to a more life-giving path.
