Why Cultivate Counseling Services?
At Cultivate,
we believe in the effectiveness of talk therapy. Research shows that many people experience a significant decrease and even remission of symptoms as a result. This truth is why we love what we do so much! Counseling changes lives! More and more people are learning how transformative counseling can be. However, a disparity in its utilization still exists. Of those reporting emotional health concerns, only 1 in 3 Black Americans actually engage in counseling, according to the National Alliance on Mental Illness.
Stigma,
lack of culturally competent clinicians, and insufficient health insurance/financial resources are two main contributors to this problem. Cultivate Counseling is blossoming in a time of social unrest to support our community. Additionally, we welcome people from all walks of life and are committed to providing culturally competent services.
The Development
of effective therapists is additionally integral to our mission. We cultivate counselor trainees and licensed professional counselors through dynamic and innovate supervision and business practices.
The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Cultivate Counseling Services exists to plant and water seeds of emotional wellness.
