Stressful situations can happen suddenly, or build over time. Whether it is a relationship issue, traumatic experience, life transition, or career challenge, I can help you move from surviving to thriving. Using comprehensive methodologies, I offer a highly personalized approach, tailored to each client. I work with individuals to help them build on their strengths and attain the healing, growth and change they are looking for.
I offer various therapeutic approaches, including somatic psychotherapy. Issues that exist in the mind, also land in the body. While the mind-body can experience pain and conflict, it can also undergo resilience and healing. My goal is to assist you in attaining wholeness and wellness through the integration of mind, body, emotions and spirit.
I believe all humans are resilient, adaptable and capable of change. I am committed to supporting you in your process of healing, recovery and finding greater life satisfaction. Feel free to reach out to me Monday-Friday 9am-6pm. Weekend appointments also available. Please visit www.pauhanacounseling.com for more information or to set up an appointment.
