About Us
Around the Hearth was an idea brought on by two working women. We had the heart and the drive to bring our dream into fruition. In the beginning, however, we asked ourselves, "Really, what can one licensed therapist and one accountant with an MBA do to make it real?" SO MUCH! We saw a need to bring such services, especially after seeing the aftermath that COVID brought on. Surrounding households experience anxiety due to isolation and fears of layoffs. Normal routine amongst children and students have been significantly disrupted. During such challenging times, it has become evident that there is more need than ever to provide a platform for individuals who need to understand the journey they are/were in.
Our Mission
At Around the Hearth LLC, we are dedicated to empowering individuals, families, and children to heal, grow, and thrive. We offer a wide range of specialties, including mental health, marriage and couple's counseling, and applied behavioral health services to children and families. Our mission is to provide intimate, quality time for each client at the comfort of their own home or at our site, where they can reflect, speak their innermost hopes or challenges, and find their own strength to resume living their lives. Through the utilization of evidence-based practices, we aim to assist in the prevention, recovery, and cure of the mental health issues affecting our clients.
