First of all, bravo for reaching out for help. The fact that you are doing a Google search for a therapist in your area is the first step to getting better, and it is a big one so congratulations on starting your journey! My counseling practice believes in the journey. This is why I named it "Wayfare Counseling". Wayfare is an Old English word that means "to go on a journey". This is what I believe counseling is all about. The journey is just as important as the recovery, and I would love to come alongside you in that process.

Courage is one step ahead of fear; therefore, it is in our hard times, when the HERO within us is revealed. Stress, anxiety, relationships, and other life challenges can send us into a whirlwind of instability. Also, some people are seeking refuge from the shame and guilt of addiction, unresolved childhood issues, and/or trauma. Allworld Counseling & Consulting, LLC provides a safe, private, and non-judgmental environment to help people restore belief and rebuild self-determination in order to find their inner Hero to help them transform their lives. We believe that you are so much more that what you are going through.

Sometimes all it takes is for someone to listen, someone to validate. Once validation occurs, we practice going through life every day- some things get better, some stay the same, but we learn more about ourselves and learn we can endure through it all.

Are you and your relationship struggling due to sexual issues. These sensitive subjects can be difficult to talk about and even harder to find the right therapist for. I specialize in helping individuals through sexual issues of all kinds, including but not limited to: ED, Desire discrepancy, pelvic pain, sexual aversion, sexual trauma, low libido, out of control sexual behavior, negative impacts of pornography and technology, medical sexual dysfunction, and more.

My ideal client is one that perhaps is dealing with feelings of fear, anger, envy, uncertainty, depression, perhaps amplified by strong religious convictions and spiritual uncertainty. They are particularly uncomfortable with being vulnerable often negligent in discussing feelings and issues of religion and spirituality, but will allow a few conversations to explore what their particular and specific issues and beliefs may be, including past traumas and sexual abuse issues. This client would be open to exploring their spirituality (not religion) as a means of developing and improving coping skills and spiritual strategies.
