My Tranquil Paths Counseling & Consulting

Welcome to the Resources hub at My Tranquil Paths Counseling & Consulting.
We understand that healing doesn’t stop when the session ends, it’s an ongoing process of self-reflection, learning, and connection. This collection of resources was created to support your mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being as you navigate your unique path toward balance and peace.

These materials are curated and developed by our licensed therapists, drawing on evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Trauma-Informed Care.
