Great to meet you!

Mywen Baysah, LICSW, LCSW-C, is the heart and mind behind Village Builders Counseling Services as its founder and Lead therapist. We believe in curating a sanctuary that's both nonjudgmental and transformative, allowing you to bravely confront life's hurdles. Our commitment is to arm you with practical tools for everyday life, aimed at breaking counterproductive cycles that might hold you back. Our ethos stems from the profound African Proverb: "It Takes a Village to Raise a Child". This signifies that a whole community's positive influence is pivotal for a child's wholesome growth.

My approach to therapy

At Village Builders Counseling Services, we take it a step further. We're grounded in the conviction that everyone, regardless of age, deserves that encompassing community support for holistic well-being. Whether you're grappling with anxiety, depression, or merely seeking a space to introspect on the multi-facets of your identity, we're here.
