"Clear, Resolve, Transform. I help clients discover and resolve subconscious causes for emotionaI and behavioral difficulties. The Subconscious controls emotions, desires, memory, habits, thoughts, dreams, and automatic responses. One may consciously understand the value of eliminating problematic emotions, thoughts or behaviors but unless the Subconscious Mind is reached, enduring change is unlikely. I address the underlying subconscious blocks to living a clear and free life. I have effectively treated sexual abuse, trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, phobias, addictions and more. Issues are cleared, clients report being able to function with more energy and clarity. Relationships thrive and lives are transformed."

"With over 25 years in the mental health field and 12 years in private practice, I offer a multitude of personal and professional experience. Much of our suffering is due to dissatisfaction in relationships. Sadly, many relationships end prematurely when we are most hurt and emotionally vulnerable. However, this is the time when the very intimacy we were lacking prior has the potential to finally break through. I give you tools and insight to heal old wounds that are holding you back from experiencing the love you seek within yourself and others. Together we address the intrapsychic conflicts and longings of the soul."

"I connect easily with clients to feel lighter and clearer in their minds, body, and Spirit. I work with people with stressful careers in medicine, law, finance, and small businesses. Knowing the necessity of keeping a clear head and calm body, yet have been struggling with heartbreak, anxiety, fears, loss and grief that has created overwhelming stress and expectations that limits functioning. It is a challenging balancing act with career, family, relationships, along with finding some quiet time to relax. I help you master these challenges with a very confidential, (no insurance or electronic records) safe, and caring environment."

"I believe that all of our experiences can enrich us if we can find meaning and reclaim our strength after suffering. I help clients understand how the brain strives ever toward survival, and to use that understanding to transform old thought patterns that have kept them stuck in the past. I work with both children and adults on the premise of resilience, and that our brains can and do evolve all the time. I also offer Supervision services to interns and LPCAs, both individually and in small peer groups."

""What's past is prologue" PROLOGUE, which means your past is not the whole story! You are the author of your future. You can grow, learn, and heal. You can "dwell in possibility." I believe that you possess the raw materials for growth, I believe you possess strengths and skills to heal, and I believe you have a unique story to tell and a right to be heard. I will strive to provide a safe and sacred space for you to share your story. I believe that mutual respect and trust between counselor and client makes all the difference."

"Finding the right therapist is an important and sometimes difficult process. I suggest an initial consultation for you to meet me, discuss your concerns and get a sense of who I am and our connection. My approach is nurturing, mindful and responsive to your unique situation. I emphasize self-reflection and understanding over pathology and believe that therapy works best as an active partnership. I will be doing my part well if you feel you can safely explore anything that comes up for you in our time together."

"Hello, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with 25 years' experience, offering you a safe, accepting environment as I listen, interact, and help guide you in resolving issues of anxiety, depression, low self esteem, abuse and trauma, relationship conflicts, feeling stuck in repetitive patterns, etc. Or perhaps you are suffering a major life transition such as divorce, loss of a loved one, change in career or home, and life feels upside down and sideways? I want to help, because I have lived through many of these transitions, understanding how painful they are, and how you can survive the changes, create joy, and thrive."

"My ideal client wants to change and evolve, and is willing to work at it through sessions and homework! I'm non-judgmental and a creative collaborator with my clients. I've done my job if clients feel heard, renewed, and empowered.

I also work in trauma recovery, LGBT issues, addiction, mood disorders, Jungian counseling, and spirituality counseling. I'm extremely adventurous, youthful by nature, and have experienced life in many places and realms."

"I believe we all have times in our lives when we can become overwhelmed and may need help from another person.

My goal is to create a safe place for clients to explore challenging areas of their lives, difficult relationships, and life transitions. I work with clients who are experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, substance abuse and life transitions. No matter where you find yourself in your life journey, I promise you will be welcomed and provided with compassionate support."

"I enjoy helping others on their path toward wellness. My goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental environment where you can share your story and find ways to heal and move forward.

"My gift is helping children and adults resolve and release their issues in just one to a few sessions with Resolve and Release Counseling. I help clients resolve with unresolved issues that are hard to release and manifest as anxiety, behavior issues, relationship problems and more. "

"Welcome to your personal journey of healing! Life can be wonderful and overwhelming at the same time. While we are transiting internally and externally, the process may seem overwhelming at times. If you are experiencing feeling "stuck", having racing thoughts, feelings of emptiness, frustration, sadness, worry and anxiety is your body's way of communicating that something is in need of being processed. Releasing and resolving things that no longer serve you. This could be faulty thinking patterns, suppressed memories, unresolved pain or trauma that continues to show up in at various time in your life."

"At Focus Centers of Asheville, I have assembled experienced professionals with a wide range experience and training in mental health, education, and applied psycho-physiology.

We utilize EEG Biofeedback (also known as neurofeedback), psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, psychological testing, qEEG brain imaging and educational consultations for children and adults with emotional, behavioral, stress, trauma and learning disorders."

"Entering into counseling takes both courage and vulnerability. I treat adults and children with trauma/anxiety and or substance use disorders. The approach that I use is one of trust and mutual respect, believing that every person has within them everything they need to grow and learn in life. Identifying and drawing forth those skills and strengths as well as an action plan for change is crucial for problem resolution. My approach in counseling is holistic as is my approach to self-healing, working with body, mind, and Spirit. They are truly connected. Working with any one area will impact the others."

"It's OKAY not to know what you want! If you are in a relationship where you and your partner cannot figure out whether to stay or whether to go, or if one partner is leaning in and the other is leaning out of relationship, my brief couples counseling can support you where you are. Let's get to the underlying issues. It's not about improving communication skills, that's pretty easy! It's about looking at the things that aren't being talked about. I have a specific protocol for working with couples who can't decide if they even want couples therapy."
