Introducing our newest intern, ✨ Mark ✨
Mark is kind, thoughtful, and connective. With a background in journalism, Mark’s path into counseling grew from a lifelong passion for connecting with people, understanding their stories, and helping make sense of life’s challenges in meaningful ways. Now pursuing his MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Mercer University, Mark is grateful for the genuine connection and mutual growth that happens within the counseling relationship, along with the opportunity to help others rediscover hope. Outside of this work, you’ll find Mark playing guitar in a rock band, spending weekends at his son’s games, or unwinding with a good rom-com.
At a reduced rate of $75/session in our Decatur location, as well as virtually, Mark welcomes the opportunity of supporting adolescents and adults navigating the many forms of loss and change that shape us!

Ye (Kanye West) put out an honest apology letter for his damaging behavior and named his bipolar disorder experience. It was surprisingly reflective and accountable. Read it (pic linked in this tweet) and let me know your thoughts!
