About Us
Hello I'm Lutissua Ballard, Psy.D.
My goal is to help you reach wholeness. When you finish treatment my hope is that you will be strengthened in your ability to live your life on purpose and with happiness. I believe in hard work and during our sessions you will be challenged to face yourself, your past and to figure out what you want for your future. I will be there to encourage you, empathize with you and empower you to heal, grow and embrace what you desire out of life.
I have worked in community mental health centers, substance abuse day programs, impatient psychiatric hospitals, residential treatment facilities, crisis center, group homes, adolescent partial hospitalization, homes, churches and public school settings. I am a Christian and I take into account the spirit, mind and body in my therapeutic work.
Shefa Life Counseling Center was established on September 1, 2019. Shefa in the Hebrew means Abundance and in Arabic it means healing or recovery. Shefa is the divine flow of healing from the Creator to His creation. John 10: 10 says” The thief comes only that he may steal, kill and destroy. I came that they might have life, and have it in abundance (till it overflows). Shefa Life Counseling Center is a place of healing, where burdens and chains of bondage are destroyed and new ways of living are developed. Abundant Life is available for all who come.
