We all have challenges; sometimes our attempts to solve them on our own aren’t getting the results we’d hoped for. At times like these, it can seem as if we’ve lost our way, and we feel stuck, stressed and alone. You aren't alone – a supportive counseling relationship is powerful and life-changing when you are heard, understood, and accepted. Coming from a strengths-based, client-centered perspective, I use a variety of techniques including cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and coaching. We can work together to discover your strengths, learn new coping skills and find ways to bring meaning and direction to your life.

All people need to feel safe, connected and capable. When something interferes with our ability to get these needs met in a healthy way, we develop alternative solutions or avoidance strategies that may help in the short-term but cause harm in the long run. I provide a safe space for people to explore and process difficult experiences and the self-defeating beliefs and over-adaptive behaviors that may have developed in response. I have a genuine interest in others and bring warmth, authenticity, and a non-judgmental presence to sessions to help you get unstuck and to walk with you on your journey of healing and transformation.

My clients tend to be well-educated, successful, and life-time learners. They are seeking to: - develop a sense of inner ease, calm and strength - recognize and re-frame habitual thoughts and address patterned behaviors - set healthy boundaries that promote connection to self and others - face major life events and changes with intention and presence - tap in to the rhythms and constancy of nature to increase a sense of equanimity, awe, and connection They approach therapy with a commitment to do the work both in and out of sessions, as they sense the inherent rewards of living a fully conscious life.

Maybe you're struggling with anxieties, feeling particularly low lately, or you're just feeling "off" and can't quite put it into words. I want to support you in getting back to yourself and living more aligned with your purpose and passions. I enjoy finding the additions to your daily routine that will reduce stress and help you cope with the ups and downs that life throws at us. In the therapy space, I strive to create an environment in which you can feel free to be your authentic self. I know that reaching out for support can be daunting, so I aim to build a therapeutic relationship that feels warm and compassionate.

Peggy Mcnally
Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, LCPC
Verified
I have been a therapist for many years, ( ~ 38-man I sound old) and have studied many theories and learned many therapeutic techniques, some more valuable than others. However, what's most important is the therapeutic relationship between client and therapist. A client must come to trust their therapist, feel accepted and have faith that their therapist knows what they are doing clinically. That being said, I have found Cognitive Behavioral techniques,, EMDR for trauma, Acceptance and Commitment therapy and others effective.

You're feeling overwhelmed meeting the needs of your child during an intense outburst of anger. The feelings of inadequacy and exhaustion are starting to take hold as each parenting skill you try to implement falls flat on its face. You keep asking yourself "what am I doing wrong," "why aren't they listening or following directions," or "how can I help my child be the person they are capable of becoming?" Parenting is a huge undertaking for anybody, but now you don't have to take the journey on your own. Para información en español presione el botón de arriba.

Accepting new clients. Welcome! Congratulations on taking the courageous first step of seeking out a therapist. It is an act of bravery and courage to explore what is impacting you or your child.

“Feeling nervous about crowds?” “Checking behaviors?” “No motivation to do anything.” Life experiences come with a myriad of emotions including negative ones. Sometimes, when we experience these negative emotions, we get stuck. Emotional states such as, anxiety and depression, can usher in moments of uncertainty and discomfort. As your therapist, I am committed to helping you, the client, navigate those uncomfortable moments. Perhaps your goal is to change unwanted behaviors, learn coping skills, or become more aware of your authentic self. My endeavor is to provide a safe and supportive space for you to explore those goals.
