I was honored to be selected as the 2022 One Life Counseling Center Business Partner of the Year. As you may have read in previous posts on this site, in 2020 I had some who are close to me have very real struggles with their mental health. It was an eye opening experience for me and the more I familiarized myself with the services available and the stigma attached to mental health, the more eye opening it became.
Earlier this year I made a commitment that was two-fold: (1) do everything I could through my platforms to help erase the stigma for those seeking to improve their mental health and (2) pledge financial support through my business with every San Carlos house listed and sold for the next ten years. I would encourage anyone to educate themselves on mental health and help spread the word on this most undervalued and misinterpreted aspect of our healthcare system. Finally, while it was certainly nice to be honored, those that really need to be honored are the therapists and staff at One Life Counseling Center that have dedicated their lives to assisting others. Thank you for all that you do.

Thank you so much for your efforts to bring awareness and funding allocated to mental health.! This issue is near and dear to me too in terms of a loved one struggling to get & afford care (as well as the stigma as you point out).
