Meet our Staff
I empower individuals and couples to identify concerns and issues within themselves and their relationships that impede a healthy, productive relationship and lifestyle. I have worked with individuals, children, adolescents, couples, and families since opening my private practice in 2012. Research shows that healthy communication in relationships, as well as balancing body, mind, and spirit substantiate and enhance one’s ability to live a longer, more fulfilling life.
In my clinical work, I guide and empower individuals, couples, and families to identify and reconcile issues within themselves and their relationships. I currently hold an active license in South Dakota as a Licensed Professional Counselor. Since 2007, I have worked with adults in a variety of clinical settings and positions. I acquired my Masters of Science through Walden University in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with focuses on forensic, trauma, and military psychology. Facilitator of Anger Management.

Class Info
Blake Schumacher, BS Sociology
Co-Facilitator Anger Management
We all face challenges and hurdles in life, and while we may share those common experiences, the way we handle those stresses can vary from person to person. My goal as an Anger Management instructor is to utilize group processing as a way to learn new approaches in recognizing triggers and how to take control of responses to those triggers in a healthy and constructive manner.
I have 13 years experience in Human Services working with children in school systems, adolescents in juvenile detention centers, and adults going through treatment facilities. I recognize the value in group classes and in finding common ground with people who are searching for healthy solutions to similar problems.
