Being human is hard. Life with all it's twist and turns can be so confusing, what's right today is wrong tomorrow. Quite possibly you have been thinking about finding a counselor for some time and have been "fighting" societal stigma of mental health services. Telling yourself that you are fine, no one will understand, or feeling shame for needing help. One of my favorite quotes about healing is..."Healing doesn't mean the damage never existed. It means the damage no longer controls our lives."
We can't change the past. We can, with care and compassion, change the way we move forward starting right now! In our therapeutic work I will support you to develop a strong positive relationship with yourself, which is your foundation for thriving in every other area of your life: partnership, friendship, family, work, creativity, spirituality.
A brief conversation can help us determine if this is a good enough fit to move forward. I'd like to hear what you are are looking for (it's ok if you don't know), and I can answer any questions you may have. Appointments typically available within 2-3 business days. Distance counseling available for any resident in the State of Florida.
Call or Melissa Williams now for a free 15 minute consultation - (863) 734-6174
