Hello and thank you for taking the time to read my Bio. My interest in mind-body medicine began 15 years ago when I was diagnosed with a potentially crippling medical condition called Multiple Sclerosis. At the time my medical doctor advised that I simply "Wait and see what happens." "That's easy for him to say," I thought.

The unpredictability of the MS really scared me. Some mornings I would wake up and I could not see or walk. I felt like I had no control over my own body. Then one day I decided to take my health into my own hands. I began reading about and practicing mind-body interventions. These are healing modalities which believe that the mind--one's thoughts, beliefs and attitudes--exerts a profound impact upon the integrity of one's immune system.

Today, after many years of learning, research and prayer I am happy to report that I am totally symptom-free. I did not allow MS to stop me from studying six languages, earning three Masters, a Doctorate in "Theology, Ethics and Culture" or from starting two successful businesses. I firmly believe that there is nothing that cannot be accomplished if you set your mind to it.

In my office, I seek to share what I have learned. Combining time-tested Biblical truths and modern, cutting edge technologies, I teach my clients how to use their powerful minds to lose weight, quit cigarettes, reduce stress or improve sports performance.

I've helped hundreds of people--people just like you--to make positive changes in their lives. I invite you to call 704-708-4404 to schedule a FREE, no risk, screening. Let's determine if my programs are right for you. If it they are, we will discuss your goals and design a program uniquely tailored to your needs and budget.


Belinda Haverdill, MA, LPC
Belinda HaverdillBelinda Haverdill is a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than 15 years in practice. With a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Masters in Counseling, it is Belinda's experience and approach to counseling and guidance that sets her apart in the field. Belinda's goal is to help her clients "Unlock the Past...Embrace the Present...Hope for the Future...and Discover Well Being." She accomplishes this through a focus on helping individuals look inside themselves to know themselves better through an understanding of the influences and experiences that make them who they are and why they are handling situations in a certain way.

Belinda believes in a holistic approach to working with clients, and does not believe in belaboring or examining the past through a microscope. Instead, the focus is on helping individuals unlock and become freed from frustration, pain or a past trauma in order to better understand personal reactions to situations, cope with a challenging situation or work through a life transition. Belinda's unique approach encompasses the art of healing physically, mentally and emotionally. By looking at each aspect, a person can better know themselves...why they act the way they do, think the way they do, and feel the way they do. By looking at the physical, mental and emotional reactions, Belinda works toward achieving a deep shift in thoughts, beliefs, emotions, and behaviors. The end result is greater understanding, confidence and independence to move forward and beyond what might be holding a person back from the life they ultimately desire.

Belinda embraces all faiths, beliefs, and backgrounds and creates an environment of mutual exchange of dialog to immediately put clients at ease. Being able to relate and connect is at the heart of Belinda's counseling, because it is through a sense of connection that values and concerns can be validated and explored...and beliefs that no longer serve an individual can be released with a renewed sense of being, belonging, and contributing.

Belinda has as many men as women who have sought her guidance and can help on a variety of levels including individuals feeling depressed or anxious, seeking personal growth, or going through a transition to couples seeking to reconcile or strengthen their relationship through better understanding of one another. Her desire is to be a catalyst for helping everyone she counsels create a better, more fulfilled and enriched life.

A member of the American Counseling Association and Internal Family Systems Association, she is also a Neuromuscular Integrative Action (NIA) White Belt Instructor. She has written and published numerous articles on wellness, self-discovery, relationships, coping, trauma, and listening to your inner voice.
