Life comes with many complicated challenges. At times seeking support can be difficult, but it is the first step towards discovering a pathway towards personal growth, insight and deeper self-understanding. I am Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Board Certified Art Therapist. I have been serving diverse populations from a variety of cultural and ethnic backgrounds, race, and socio-economic status. Most specifically, since 2005 I have been specializing in treatment of individuals that have been diagnosed with chronic pain.

I don't believe that struggling is weak or wrong, it allows us to grow into stronger and more capable people. I think that there are some experiences that hit us a little harder than others and have us needing some support along the way, everyone has conflict and difficulty in their lives at one time or another. I also believe that our emotional challenges can affect our physical experience through anxiety symptoms, chronic pain, exhaustion and difficulty sleeping as well as in other ways.

I believe in you. You’ve made it here, which means you’ve already taken action for change. Today you are one step closer to a new you where you feel empowered on your path to well being.

You will take our work with you after we end and reap the benefits throughout your life.

Life has a way of throwing us off balance. We can be moving right along without any issues, then suddenly what used to be working is no longer effective.

I strive to be that non-judgemental and compassionate companion that will provide you the encouragement and feedback to make your efforts for change count!

How do we break the spell of trauma? Shame, internalized gaslighting, trust issues, addictions and all the rest. How do we break free? The funny answer is not by fighting them as enemies. But by befriending them. Once we befriend them, they lose their power over us. But how do we befriend an enemy that lives in our Unconscious? Dreams, art, play, and imagination are all natives of this realm. so they are perfect guides through our underworld of rich personal symbolism to befriend shadow elements and integrate repressed capacities, replenishing vitality.

Amid the ups and down and trials of life, it is easy to succumb to the, "If you think that the grass is greener on the other side" mentality. Well, it's time to water your grass. Although events can affect our lives, a true master of the art of living learns to weather the ups and downs and not allow circumstance to control our relationships, and more importantly, our own self-worth, dignity, and willingness to put one step in front of the other. Counseling is an avenue to help yourself achieve this control over your life. Please visit my website for more information regarding my services: allanheremlmft.site
