Emily Sterk, LCMFT and I discuss the differences of non-profit counseling practices vs for-profit private practices. Emily is the founder of Healing Towards Wellness, a non-profit counseling practice in the Greater Kansas City area. There are a lot of ways to meet the mental health needs of our communities and Emily shares her knowledge and experience in connecting the communities needs by reimagining what it means to create accessible care in our communities.
After moving back to KC in 2018, Emily saw a a major crisis surrounding suicide rates and connected that to lack of available and affordable mental healths services, from there Healing Towards Wellness was created. Since its start in 2019, HTW has supported over 50 teachers with six months of free therapy, the average cost of session is $50 and continues to stand by the belief that supporting local and being heavily involved in the community lowers mental health crisis.
