Decades of Excellence in Evidence-Based Practice.

A legacy built on empathy, integrity and trust

Life Development Resources (LDR) was founded in 1987 by Dr. Rose Busscher, PsyD, LP and is now owned and operated by Michelle Frauenshuh, MA, LMFT. Since our inception we have grown to a group of 60+ therapists dedicated to helping you and your family achieve an abundant life through a variety of specialized mental health services.
