Hello! I am both the sole owner of Therapy Wellness by Gia Bella, LLC & a licensed professional counselor. With fifteen years experience in the mental health field, my circle around the field began as a secondary English teacher, then back to The University of Texas at the Permian Basin for a master’s degree in counseling for school counseling. But ultimately complete the circle through various types of counselors: Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, contracting in a growing group private practice, to currently reading the ultimate goal of my own private practice in my local community. 

I am a true believer in holistic wellness whenever possible before adding pharmaceuticals. There are so many true values in healing the body with nature and non-invasive elements within our world.
