Our story

Built So Healing Could Reach More People

The Peace of Mind Foundation was created so the healing services offered through Peace of Mind Yoga, Counseling, and Wellness Center could reach even more people. We serve individuals, families, and communities through integrative care that addresses the mind, the body, and the nervous system.

Through Karolina's Place, we're also Union County's sexual violence support program, offering free, confidential help 24 hours a day. If you want the longer story, here's how Karolina's Place came to be, and why I still answer the hotline.
