You’re an amazing woman, and I thank you for all that you do and how welcoming you are.I cried when it was time to leave because the bond, the love, and family built in a few days was inseparable.

Meet Our Founder & CEO

Welcome,

My name is Chereen.

The therapy field overlooks the body's role, while somatic work lacks clear steps for healing, missing the holistic human potential.

I created Oak Tree Counseling and Wellness to be your home for mental health, yoga and wellness!

My passion is empowering people. I hate disingenuous concepts of healing; I believe you need a combination of tools and the right fit and you can find the light within yourself.

I love bringing people together to learn first-hand how to create balance in mind, body and soul.

All areas of our lives are connected.

Right brain and left-brain healing are my mission. I believe we must unlock our nervous system to move forward. 

Working with me or my team you will feel seen, heard and validated.

Consider us your partners in believing; the mighty oak grows from the tiny acorn, lets plant the acorn and watch it grow to its fullest potential, together.

Meet the team of healers here.
