Are you or someone you love hurting? Are you suffering and feeling overwhelmed by life’s challenges? Essential Elements Counseling Center uses solution-focused and evidence-based methods in our practice to help you achieve your goals. Our founder Brenda White, LCPC, believes there are three major components to a healthy and well-balanced emotional state of mind. These are love, purpose, and value. If any is missing, the resulting experience is some level of mental distress.
