The key to living a happy, healthy and whole life is having the ability to identify, process and replace the negative thoughts and behaviors that hinder one from achieving their ideal self. As a psychotherapist, my goal is to help each patient become more self aware so that their emotional/mental self and physical self are aligned. Together we will discuss a treatment plan that will help to address the presenting issues at hand and assist one in attaining their personal therapeutic goals. I pride myself on the ability to create a comfortable atmosphere which allows for open, honest communication.
Balanced Living Mental Health Counseling PLLC is excited to now offer weekend availability. My team of therapists have been personally selected based on similar therapeutic philosophies. Using a multi-disciplinary approach, my therapists are able to provide a more patient specified treatment plan to optimize levels of therapeutic success.
Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions. I look forward to speaking with you and hopefully embarking on this journey together!
