I believe that counseling and therapy can benefit everyone. Clarity and focus are the goals of the type of therapy I do, and empowerment is part of how we get there. Resolving ambivalence, finding motivation, and developing insight are what you can expect from effective therapy sessions. No matter what is bothering you, causing you stress, or blocking your path to getting where you want to be, counseling can help. Change can be very invigorating once you have the wind at your back, instead of blowing in your face!
I work in a non-12 step model, and take a mindful, practical approach to recovery. If self-help methods have not helped you, try counseling. There are many ways to grow away from harmful patterns. I can help you find yours.
Although we all brush and floss, when a toothache keeps us up all night, we call the dentist in the morning. Let's think of counseling in the same way! You still have to do the maintenance, but let a professional handle the big stuff. I look forward to talking with you!
