WHAT IS MENTAL HEALTH?

Mental health is an important part of overall health and well-being. Mental health includes our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It affects how we think, feel, and act. It also helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make healthy choices. Mental health is important at every stage of life, from childhood and adolescence through adulthood.

Welcome! I am Michelle Elliott DeShields, the caring counselor.  As a counselor, my goal is to make every child feels safe, special and loved. We are open for face to face and will also continue to offer counseling services via a virtual setting. I want to assure you that I will continue to dedicate my time to serving your family and providing counseling services for your child.

I recognize that this may be a stressful time as we are coping with post pandemic life and the effects on children, youth, and families. Mental Health is my top priority and on this website, you can find resources for children and parents that can be used with children in a school or home setting .

Please feel free to reach out to me for questions or to schedule an appointment with me to meet with you or your child in regards to their mental health.


                                          Be healthy. Be helpful. Be hopeful. Be happy.
