Hi, I’m Barbara Gettes — a Clinical Mental Health Counselor and Wellness Coach offering trauma-informed, mindfulness-based, and holistic support for individuals, families, and children. As a single mom with ADHD, I bring lived experience, compassion, and deep understanding to the people I work with. I love supporting fellow neuro-spicy creatives, highly sensitive souls, and those navigating the windy and sometimes bumpy roads of life. My practice is culturally sensitive, LGBTQ+ affirming (and allied).. and is a safe, inclusive space to be your full self. Whether you’re moving through grief, anxiety, life transitions, or relationship patterns that no longer serve you, I’m here to walk alongside you. The work we do is a soft landing place for clarity, calm, and a more grounded way of being. Some of my my areas of focus are anxiety, grief, trauma, ending toxic relationships (co-dependency and narcissistic abuse), career counseling, gentle parenting and spirituality. I offer both coaching and counseling. I have a Master degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Walden University and over a decade of experience coaching and consulting with individuals, families and in schools. I am person centered and integrate CBT and positive psychology into my practice. I look forward to expanding my scope of practice with various trainings as I am able.
