Https://pronkcounseling.com/about-pronk FOR DETAILED INFORMATION /// I enjoy working with individuals who are (not always) open to engage in the therapeutic process and allow themselves to transform into the unique, worthy person they’ve always been.....but perhaps have not yet met. I often work with profound unrecognized and misdiagnosed trauma, critical incidents & shame. The wonderful benefit about having various "tools" in my arsenal means that we don't need to verbally go "into the muck" which can be re-traumatizing. I’m genuine in my non judge mental style and can hold the biggest of “monsters” so you feel safe!

I'd like to help you deepen your awareness of how you relate to yourself and others and support you in navigating your world. We will work toward increasing your resiliency and making change, if that's what you need. Let me help you.
