Michael's New Hours

Michael is now seeing clients four days a week Tuesday through Friday. He is also taking new clients.

Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner

We now offer primary mental healthcare.  As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, Linda Gossling can now offer a full line of services that address a broad spectrum of problems. 

Services include evaluations, diagnosis, prescription medication, nutrition and lifestyle plans, and counseling. Treatment for medical illnesses such as depression, bipolar disorder and anxiety is available.

She can work together with your other healthcare providers to ensure continuity and comprehensive care.  In addition, Linda specializes in stress management and chronic pain management.  She is available at FCC Monday through Thursday

Massage Therapy

Many have asked why a counseling center offers therapeutic massage therapy. Most who seek counseling are experiencing some form of mental, emotional, or relational stress. Psychological stress often manifests in the physical body in the form of muscular or joint pain. Research has demonstrated that massage can lower blood pressure, heart rate, and respiration, three symptoms related anxiety and depression.

We believe in the dynamic interaction between the mind and body. Massage is a valuable modality for relieving chronic physical pain which heightens psychological stress. Frequently, those who have experienced physical trauma in childhood carry that trauma in the body’s memory systems and massage can access and normalize that stored memory. We believe in working with the mind body.



*Any of the massage modalities may be used alone or combined to create an individualized massage session
