“It’s a calling to help those who find it hard to help themselves. To inspire them and to encourage them and to show they have it within themselves to do it; they have what it takes to be the person that they want to be.” -Victoria Freeman

“While I’ve been with CHS for 1 ½ years, I’ve been conducting therapy for 6 years. I’ve served a variety of backgrounds and communities but my favorite type of therapy is family counseling. When working with a parent and child together, I see higher progress than when serving a child by themselves. It’s important to remember that a child’s behavior is often a reflection of their relationships at home. I see greater success in family sessions when all members are involved in interventions and treatment together. I’m passionate about my role with CHS because I know I can help a family… a child, a parent…feel safe. It is inspirational, especially when I realize they may not have felt safe in their environment for a long time. I see their posture change as though weight is lifted off their shoulders when opening up to me about things… there is a visible release. Counseling and therapy work wonders and it’s amazing that I’m able to be a part of that family’s healing process and help them discover a brighter future.” - Chelsea Stewart

“Technology is a primary source of interaction for many people, and telehealth services allow me to engage clients on an accessible, familiar platform while decreasing travel and time expenses. I tell my clients that time is the most valuable thing we have, and I’m privileged that they’re choosing to share theirs with me. Telehealth helps us make the most of that time using interactive screen-sharing features that keep counseling interesting, while allowing for continuity of care if my client moves to a different location, as a strong therapeutic relationship is essential for successful treatment.” - Caron Shimel
