Our Mission Statement, Values, and Vision
Mission Statement
“To provide professional mental-health counseling and holistic therapies that are compassion-based and affordable to ALL in need.”

At the heart of Maria Droste Counseling Services are four VALUES that provide the foundation of our Mission:
Acceptance • Respect • Compassion • Healing
Acceptance of oneself is the cornerstone of the ability to respect oneself so that one can respect others, which allows for compassionate action and promotes healing. We live these values first in ourselves so that we can hopefully be a healing presence for our clients by our demeanor, words, and actions. These are the values cultivated, practiced, and lived by our founders, the Sisters of the Good Shepherd, and we are privileged to follow in their footsteps and continue their example.
Our individual training as mental health professionals and holistic healers is strengthened by this active, embodied foundation of lived-values.
All supporting our Vision of
Bringing Hope to Life
