About

Hi there, my name is Rachal Bales and I'm a Marital and Family Therapist. I have been licensed since 2004, and I am ready to work with you to make the changes you want, a reality.

My therapy style is eclectic and I'm a big believer in the healing properties of humor. I believe that we all carry some negative messages gathered through our life experiences, and these can be a barrier to being happy and confident in our day to day lives.

I have experience with all age ranges, from teens to geriatric clients.
