Plumb Line Counseling is a welcoming place where the individual from age 14 to 90 can resolve difficulties. Confidentiality is of the upmost importance, maintaining ethics and professionalism within the boundaries set by the state. Individual only counseling provider involves a holistic effort from both counselor and client, that includes a working partnership - exercising interventions outside of session to obtain goals. This office provides interventions for mood disorders, anxiety disorders, neurological disorders, personality disorders, and interpersonal problems with respect for cultural backgrounds. Supvr: Joi Adams
Plumb Line is a listening practice that is empathetic, providing care using collaborations through authorized parties for a correct diagnosis; treatment is discussed with client being the most active participant. This office uses TF-CBT, CBT, SFBT, Reality Therapy, Mindfulness, Guided Imagery and other forms of support with respect to client's abilities.
If you enjoy being heard, having an opportunity to make decisions and change them if necessary; if you want to discover a new way to proceed, learn how you can survive in this world with a new mindset, and smile by the time your session ends, please contact this office by email or call the office. Life can be difficult; Let's keep life in balance.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy because I assign homework to quicken the treatment results. Working as a partnership is important to me because, the client always works and the therapist guides. This active guidance from the therapist with the client is important. Client can then voice wants, wishes and needs then the both of us work as a team toward your goals, then success!
