I'm Colin Baker MA, LPC, LAC and welcome to Briar and Balm Counseling. With nearly a decade of experience in the field of Clinical Mental Health, I have witnessed and learned many things about the way life can twist and turn on people. Many branches can present themselves on our life’s path, and I understand how that can result in complicated emotions about our experiences.

My experiences in the world of psychiatric hospitals, PHP/IOP programs, non-profit organizations, University health clinics, and group practices, have all combined to create my unique vision and understanding of the Mental Health Field

With nearly a decade of experience, I offer services for Teens (aged 13+), the Gender and Sexuality diverse (LGBTQ+), Non-Monogamous relationships, Survivors of Trauma and Addiction, Couples, and Families. I am trained in EMDR, SMART Recovery, DBT, and various other therapy methods which help me to bring various skills and tools to the work we will be doing together.

If you're ready to work towards a healthier, happier you, find support here every step of the way. Reach out today, and let's embark on this journey together!
