🌱 Why We’re Different at Roots Counseling & Coaching 🌱
At Roots, we believe mental health support should be affordable, accessible, and personal especially for those without insurance. That’s why we offer therapy from licensed providers at rates that work for you.

But we don’t stop there. We know life isn’t one-size-fits-all, and healing isn’t just about seeing a therapist once a week. That’s why we offer Peer Support and Life Coaching services designed to meet you right where you are in life.

Sometimes, our clients work with both a therapist and a peer support specialist, creating a true team around them.
Because there’s truth in the saying: it takes a village.
We tailor every step of your support to your life not the other way around. And we understand that life doesn’t run 8–5, so your care shouldn’t either.

Here, you’re not just a client your family. We’re here to walk beside you, cheer you on, and help you succeed every step of the way.

And for those with insurance, our licensed therapist is in-network with:
✅ Blue Cross Blue Shield
✅ Medicaid Magnolia
✅ Medicaid True Care
✅ Straight Medicaid
✅ Ambetter

Understanding Anxiety: More Than Just Worry

Anxiety is one of the most common mental health challenges, but it’s not just about feeling worried or stressed. It can show up as:

Racing thoughts or difficulty concentrating
Physical symptoms like a pounding heart, sweating, or stomach aches
Avoiding situations that trigger fear
Feeling restless or “on edge”
If you or someone you love is experiencing these, remember: anxiety is treatable, and you’re not alone.

At Roots Counseling and Coaching, we offer compassionate support tailored to your unique needs
Take the first step toward peace of mind today.

"🌿 Your Mental Health Matters to God, Too 🙏

Yes, you can love Jesus and go to therapy.
Yes, you can believe in the power of prayer and take medication.
Yes, you can have strong faith and still struggle with anxiety, depression, or trauma.

God cares about your whole self — body, mind, and spirit.
Seeking help isn’t a lack of faith — it’s an act of wisdom and courage.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, weary, or emotionally drained…
Let this be your reminder: “Come to Me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” – Matthew 11:28
