Melinda L. Walker, MA, LPCC, CRS, BCPC, Counselor in Santa Fe
I am a Solution Focused Therapist working with individuals and couples. I have been in practice for 22 years. In my Solution Focused approach, a person looks at the issues/areas of life that need to be changed, and what habits, behaviors, actions and choices keep perpetuating these issues in your life or relationships. We look at when these issues are resolved, what will be different? What will you notice now that these issues are no longer on the emotional property of your life? What will others notice? What has stopped you in the past?
We look at designing, implementing and integrating the change that you want to see on a behavioral and cognitive level. I work with you on creating a foundational change in areas such as: Restoring Trust & Intimacy, Listening & Communication, Conflict Resolution, Transitions, Management of Life Issues and Implementing Positive Change.
Learning your "language of loving and living" that is specific to you. Generating a life that is true to you, living it well in an inspired and intentional way. Being emotionally honest and making changes and choices from that place to support who you are versus who you are not.
