Celeste Ballard, Licensed Professional Counselor

My clients describe me as:

Someone who sees and understands in a way they haven't had before. Compassionate, straight forward, and a good sense of humor.

Something to know about my approach is:

Meditation and somatic work help you to focus and retrain past thinking and traumas that you react to without knowing it. We go beyond understanding to actual retraining the bodies response to triggers. The mind and body can finally relax.

Together, we will:

You learn why pain is there and what it needs, so your body can release it. Equally important is learning to have joy and success in life, learning it is a conscious choice and how to be able to open to your inner self and to others.

I specialize in working with people who:

People who are seeking to unlock long held patterns. People who are motivated to find the truth and will work to achieve it. People who have a spiritual propensity. Therapists and people who have done therapy before and hit a wall.

I became a therapist because:

Because it impacted my life profusely and because I haven't stopped my own work, which has allowed me to teach from experience versus rote techniques.

Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is:

People always say that our practice feels peaceful and that coming to it is part of the meditative experience.

More about me and my practice:

I have extensive training in mind, body and spirit and have been in the counseling field for 30 years. With a Masters in counseling psychology, certified massage therapist, and 20+ yrs of meditation training in psychological and spiritual techniques.
