WELCOME!
​
Welcome to Peaceful Waters Mental Health!
I’m Cheryl Noel, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I am deeply committed to assisting expecting parents, new parents, and seasoned parents growing their families. I help navigate the unique mental health challenges of the perinatal period by providing compassionate guidance, evidence-based strategies, and a nurturing environment to foster emotional well-being, resilience, and a positive parenting journey.
My services are available to individuals of all backgrounds and beliefs. I am also open to integrating spiritual care for those who seek it, ensuring a personalized and meaningful therapeutic experience. My approach to spiritual care is rooted in Christian values, and I offer a compassionate and judgment-free space that resonates with those seeking spiritual alignment. My goal is to walk alongside you on your journey, offering guidance and support that align with your personal values and aspirations.
I am dedicated to helping you to improve your daily wellness by navigating through life stressors, working through adversity, building resilience, equipping you with strategies to manage the unexpected ups and downs of life, and reclaiming your life and sense of self, when things feel out of control.
I offer guidance on enhancing communication skills, which are essential for nurturing healthy family dynamics. My focus extends to stress management, burnout recovery and prevention, and alleviating symptoms of anxiety and depression. Additionally, I provide support for those experiencing disenfranchised grief - a type of grief often minimized, misunderstood, or unacknowledged by social norms. This includes grief from stigmatized losses and family difficulties such as divorce, estrangement, or separation due to situations like incarceration, job obligations, and military deployment, which can leave individuals feeling alone and invalidated.
I am committed to supporting you as you overcome challenges along your journey. My hope is that you will find greater peace along the way as we work together to turn chaos into clarity.
I'm here to help whenever you need it. Schedule a free 30-minute phone consultation at your convenience, and we can discuss whether my approach is a good fit for you.​​​

Insurance Options:
I partner with a company called Headway to streamline the billing process for those who are able to utilize their insurance benefits for therapy sessions. Headway works directly with clients to assist with insurance claims, ensuring a smooth and efficient experience for accessing mental health services.
Self-Pay (Pay In Full Without Insurance) Option:
I offer a convenient self-pay option which is also processed through Headway.
This option is for those who have insurance that cannot be processed by Headway. You will receive an invoice for the services rendered, and you will be able to easily manage your payments online.
​​
IMPORTANT NOTE:
As a partner with Headway, if I do not accept your insurance, but other providers who are partnered with Headway do accept it, I will not be able to accept you as a self-paying client. In that situation I will refer you to other providers that accept your insurance through Headway.
