Hello! My name is Jeffrey Proctor and I am an LPC. Everyone wants to feel like they are valuable, and we are all valuable, however, it’s often hardest for us to see our own worth. It’s times like these that life often seems to have no purpose. Many factors can cause us to feel this way, including: trauma, negative relationships, inability to believe in our full potential, lack of support, and not having the tools to change. This can leave us feeling stuck. I am here to help you find your way to peace within yourself.

I’m a cognitive behavioral practitioner committed to helping teens and adults learn how to develop positive coping strategies and overcome deep seeded negative beliefs. My work focuses on targeting the painful, negative memories that get stuck in your mind and body and impact you in the present. In my counseling sessions, I offer compassion and positive regard which creates a space to explore the deeper issues, challenge negative beliefs, and help reframe unhealthy thoughts. What you can expect in therapy with me is a safe, open, judgement free space where you can gain insight, healing, acceptance and understanding.

She believes it is important to incorporate a person’s interpersonal connections, work life, spirituality, and community connections with their own mental health to truly live a fulfilled life.

I consider it an honor to guide and help individuals and families as they walk through what may be one of the more difficult times in their lives. Whatever your story is, you are worthy of getting well and should not suffer in silence any longer. There is absolutely no shame in seeking counseling and I commend you for taking this step!

I believe that with the right professional help, healing is possible. Everyone has a unique story to tell. It's critical to understand that you're not alone in your experience. Working with teenagers and their parents provided me with valuable insight into what they desire to achieve in their healing journey. Life can be difficult at times, but you must remember that you are in charge of your own destiny and that you are the only person who can solve your problems. I work with adolescent and preadolescent children as well as their parents. Depression, anxiety, and career counseling with teenagers are my main areas of expertise.

Are you going through a difficult time overwhelmed with emotion, or working hard and aiming to please but find you are worn out and satisfying no one, including yourself? You may be feeling stuck in an unhealthy relationship or behavior pattern. You may be struggling with that "inner critic" that succeeds in throwing you off your game. I strive to provide a safe environment where relief and desired change can replace pain, distress, and frustration.
