Meet Our Team

Meet the Owner

Greetings Dear Ones! I am Charonda Gardner (she/her), Holistic Integrative Therapist and owner of Embracing Hope Counseling and Consulting.


With 10+ years of experience as a therapist and MANY more years of life experience, I have developed a deep passion for connecting with other women and supporting them as they make the journey back home to themselves.


In my work with clients, I utilize approaches that are holistic and integrative. In addition to being a therapist, I am also a Reiki Master, Breathwork Facilitator, and 200-Hour Yoga Instructor. Needless to say, I’m an advocate of modalities that not only focus on the mind, but the body and the spirit as well.


Main Areas of Focus:

  • Spiritual Integration for Empaths and HSP
  • Stress/Anxiety
  • Depression
  • EMDR Trained
  • Trauma
  • Mood Instability
  • Self-Abandonment


I also have experience in codependency, unhealthy self-esteem, and relationship discord.  I especially enjoy working with other helpers & healers, those who identify as Empath or Highly Sensitive, those recovering from childhood traumas, and those experiencing spiritual awakenings.


The mission of this practice is based on my heartfelt belief that we each already have the tools needed to meet our highest potential but may have forgotten how to connect to our inner source of wisdom.


We are so excited to partner with you on your journey of reconnection, expansion and evolution.

 

LET’S HEAL…TOGETHER!
