Are you ready for change? Austrian psychiatrist and psychotherapist, Viktor Frankl stated “When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves”. I have built most of my work around studying trauma and the effects it has on a human. Trauma defined is an event or circumstance that is beyond a person's ability to cope properly. Many symptoms like anxiety, depression, dissociation, fatigue, and guilt follow trauma. Trauma is scary and I do not believe we were meant to do life alone. I offer to serve as someone who can collaboratively walk through the trauma with you.

Creative Pathways is a counseling service that offers counseling to individuals or family groups. My areas of interest in counseling are working with children, adolescents, individuals, couples and families during the difficult times that occur throughout the normal stages of the life process. I want to help people increase their positive relationships with others by recognizing and building up their own special characteristics.

Most of my clients come to me at a point in their life where they no longer recognize themselves or their relationships. They've put much on the back-burner for so long that they loose their identity. They wake up to a life with little passion, little desire, and very little will. This issue is typically their subconscious letting them know that how they've been living is no longer conducive on their journey of growth and success. If you are having or have had this experience, then it is my goal to help you identify and remove those blocks to put you back on the course where you experience life and relationships to their fullest.
