You might recognize this…
-
This is more common than you think!
Tired of managing everything on the outside while feeling overwhelmed inside. You are just tired, and you can’t quite explain it.
-
When is your turn? You give so much to others. You carry a lot, and most of it goes completely unseen.
-
If you really stop and look at your life, you’ve done a lot. More than most people, honestly. You’ve had experiences, made things happen, figured things out in ways a lot of people haven’t. You’ve built something solid, but you don’t feel as settled as you expected to.
And still… something feels a little off. It almost makes you feel guilty or wonder if you just never can feel fully at ease.
Not in a dramatic way. It is more a sense of a bit tired, a bit stretched, like you’re carrying more than you let on.
There’s a part of you that’s still waiting for it to click. Just waiting.
Stop waiting.
Contact us now, we can help.

You’ve moved between cultures and experiences, you get everyone, but who gets you?
You experienced vastly different ways of life, and it’s rare to feel fully understood in all of who you are, maybe you are not even sure about who you are. Reach out. This is one of our specialties.
You don’t need to figure this out alone. Here’s where most people start their journey
here’s how to
BEGIN:
01
Find Your Starting Point
Healing is not one-size-fits-all. Some clients are looking for supportive weekly therapy, others for deeper trauma work or a more integrative approach. We help you find the right fit based on your needs, goals, and level of support.
02
Schedule a Consultation
If you’re unsure where to begin, we’ll guide you. No worries if you are not sure what you need. Not everyone needs the same kind of support.
A brief consultation helps us understand what you’re looking for and match you with the right level of care.
03
Begin & feel the Change
Once we’ve identified the right path, we begin.
Whether through therapy, trauma-informed yoga, integrative somatic work, or Ketamine assisted therapy, the focus is not just insight — but meaningful, lasting change.
Meet Our Founder & CEO
MY NAME’S CHEREEN.
Welcome
Healing happens when the mind, body, and nervous system are finally working together.
The therapy field overlooks the body's role, while somatic work lacks clear steps, missing the holistic human potential.
I created Oak Tree Counseling and Wellness to be your home for mental health, both mind and body; I am a huge advocate of integrating talk therapy, yoga, neuroscience & mindfulness.
My passion is empowering people. I hate disingenuous concepts of healing; I believe you need a combination of the correct tools and the right fit, and you can find the light within yourself.
Working with the Oak Tree team you will feel seen, heard and validated.
Consider Oak Tree Counseling and Wellness 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.
Our approach blends evidence-based therapy with mind-body practices to help clients feel more grounded, connected, and empowered in their lives.
We offer a carefully developed clinical team trained within a shared philosophy.
