If you are reading this, you have figured out two things. 1. This world does not provide what it promises; 2. Something is missing. These are two issues most guys wrestle with each day.

You're sick and tired of living like this and want peace!

I enjoy working with clients of all ages and backgrounds.

We all have the potential to succeed and solve problems; but, life is sometimes difficult and we experience roadblocks. Reaching out for assistance takes courage and is a sign of strength.

Ruthann finds it an honor to assist clients as they process life and find break throughs in relationships and problems.

Our focus is to help you see your strengths and ease your struggles. Clients come to LEC because we take the time to understand your needs and match you with a therapist who is a good fit for you. This improves your outcome for satisfaction and success with counseling.

**Not Accepting New Clients** Do you wish you were more satisfied with your life or relationship? Is it a struggle to know where to start? It's time to make things better. Another perspective and some strategies can help you get relief. My goal is to help you uncover your potential and pursue the life and relationships you want.

My strength is working with children, adolescents and their families as well as with adults to help address any issues that are keeping them from functioning the way they would like to. My goal in working with others during treatment is provide them with insight to give them ability to make changes in their lives. Everyone already has the ability within them to live a fulfilling life and I enjoy helping them find the skills to do that.

**DAYTIME APPOINTMENTS AVAILABLE** What would it look like for you to live life to the fullest; to feel valued, understood, and empowered? I would love to journey with you to answer that question. I understand the discomfort that comes in taking the risk to seek help and to explore your pain. My goal is to walk alongside of you, proving a warm, genuine, and safe environment to process.

Hello. If you are reading this right now, I know that you are hurting, in emotional pain.

Here you are safe and free to be you. You want to feel better and I can help you believe change is possible and then work beside you until this pain is alleviated.

A common phrase I hear is "I just feel stuck." The people who say that know there is something better out there, but they don't know how to move in that direction. My role is to help you better understand yourself and make the most of who you want to be. Many people reach out because their lives seem to lack meaning, they don't feel worthwhile, they find some challenges overwhelming, or they just don't seem to feel joy from their relationships or activities. That's where we begin the work.

Are you the parent or guardian of a child, adolescent, or teen struggling to cope? Perhaps your child has experienced trauma, perhaps your family is going through a divorce or death, perhaps you have concerns about suicide or self-injury. You might feel helpless or overwhelmed with the challenges your child is facing.

The clients I work with are not all addicts or alcoholics, but they all have experienced negative consequences from their use. I am committed to standing shoulder to shoulder with my clients in creating their ideal life. This approach allows the individual to see themselves as naturally resourceful and resilient. People suffering from addiction are asked to give up all their people, places and things in order to be successful. I can assists with a healthy replacement that will reflect the goals and ambitions you seek.

You're overwhelmed, on edge, and feeling like you've failed...again. People around you don't seem to notice, but inside you're crumbling. You replay your conversations and try to figure out what went wrong. No matter how well you do, it feels like you're disappointing someone. You beat yourself up about your mistakes. You lay awake thinking about how to solve your problems. You've tried self-help, considered medication, and even been to therapy, but you're spinning your wheels. You're motivated and ready to do whatever it takes to conquer anxiety and find confidence in your abilities.

Problems at school, feelings of sadness and confusion, emotional and behavioral outbursts, and withdrawing from people and activities are common concerns seen in children. Adolescents often experience problems at school, at home, and in social settings, causing feelings of isolation and poor decision making such as drinking, smoking, and skipping school. I work with children and adolescents to understand the root causes of their feelings and actions and to identify and implement appropriate coping skills.

Is your adolescent struggling in school? Are you having difficulty keeping his/her behavior under control? Is your child acting differently (isolating themselves, arguing more than usual, avoiding peers, self-harming)? Are you struggling with a divorced or blended family situation? I would love to be able to help you, your child, and your family. I have been working with at-risk, troubled youth and their families for over 15 years. This includes working closely with the school, juvenile system, and medical practitioners, as well.

My focus is to help find solutions for the concerns you bring to counseling. As a licensed marriage & family therapist, I work with couples & individuals. I utilize solution-focused techniques to build hope & create change. I also work from a systemic approach to improve relationships. I have been trained as a Professional Christian counselor & can include those services upon request. However, I respect those who do not desire to include a spiritual component. My areas of emphasis include marital issues, healthy emotions & boundaries. Contact me to find your solutions! PLEASE NOTE: the above number CANNOT receive TEXT messages.
