Principle - Licensed Mental Health Counselor at The Bridges Wellness Group, LLC - New Carrollton, MD, US
Founded in 2017, The Bridges Wellness Group (BWG) is a minority owned and operated mental health practice. BWG's mission is to provide holistic support to meet the mental healthcare needs of our clients. At BWG we recognize in the natural world there is no mind-body split and take an integrated and holistic approach to wellness. Our goal is to work with our client to assist them on their journey as they bridge the distance between these self-concepts that can develop overtime. This distance is brought about by our desire to become "successful". As a society we have embraced the belief that in order to be successful one must be a "thinking person", and thinking people suppress their feelings and ignore fear reactions.While this way of thinking affords us "things" it can also leave us feeling void and empty. Untreated, these empty feelings can lead to depression, anxiety, anger and other conditions. Because but the mind, body, and spirit are intricately connected, what is happening to us physically affects us spiritually and emotionally and those emotional and spiritual things can have physical affects. At BWG we take a holistic and culturally relevant approach to traditional psychotherapy.
