Therapists in Medford, OR

There are many reasons individuals seek counseling and regardless of those reasons I believe every individual can benefit from counseling. Change occurs through self acceptance, self actualization, and self motivation. My goal is to facilitate self exploration by discussing concerns regarding family, relationships, stress, self esteem, and mental health diagnosis. Though I have worked with a variety of individuals, my particular counseling focus is on thought processes and how those processes impact overall functionality.

Sexual addiction (SA) is a hidden addiction. It is a global problem, under-reported, and largely untreated. SA harms relationships, creates relational trauma for partners, and damages trust and intimacy in relationships. Addicts often engage in secrecy and feel shame and guilt about their behavior. Partners often feel betrayed and traumatized by the addicts behavior. Intimacy issues are often an underlying concern for both individuals and for couples. Like other addictions, SA can get progressively worse over the years. If untreated, SA can lead to relationship loss, divorce, job loss. financial problems, and legal problems.

Self-actualization is the humanistic idea that we all move toward our highest potential. Easier said than done as most of us get stuck, face difficulties in life, or struggle with specific mental health issues.

The most important aspect of our work together is building a relationship based on trust and respect so that you can achieve the positive action YOU desire.

I believe that as human beings we are constantly being challenged by life to stand up to our fears and learn how to be true to ourselves. Counseling is helpful, often times critical, during times of crisis when a person's inner strength has become overwhelmed, confused or blocked by the stormy issues of life. Resolving these issues is a very complex matter which involves great care and skill, skills such as: processing intense emotions, healing traumatic memories, correcting obsolete negative (fear-based) beliefs about oneself and communicating assertively.

With every situation comes the choice for self-growth and rising above the ashes by igniting a need for change.

Our goal is to empower you to make the choice of how you want to see your life while creating an individualized environment to help you reach your goals for you are the expert of you.
