Do you feel unheard, isolated, misunderstood and your life is on "pause"? Or perhaps you may feel as though you are sitting at an intersection in your life wondering which way is the best direction for you to take in order to obtain your self-identified goal(s). Understanding that the journey to obtaining life goals most often encompasses recognizing and working through the pauses, risks, and stuckness of life in order to achieve personal growth and overall wellness.

At times, we all need to be validated and affirmed to feel understood and seen. But to make long lasting changes, we also need to be challenged. As your therapist, I can do both. I work with clients who want to take responsibility for themselves and their lives. Who are willing to step outside of their comfort zones bit by bit to change unhelpful patterns of thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Instead of circling around the same old things that are keeping you stuck, together, we will identify strategies that allow you to fully participate in your life.

For many years I have enjoyed offering individual, couple, family, and group therapy to clients working on depth issues to achieve intrapsychic and behavioral change as well as improved relationships with others. The goal is not only resolution of relationship, behavioral, and emotional distress, but also discovery of personal meaning in life. Relationship counseling includes relationship to self as well as to others. Couples counseling includes coupling at all stages and with all types of couples. My counseling theory of practice is based primarily in family systems, experiential, and client centered counseling concepts. See www.watereecounseling.com

Are you looking to feel more empowered by where you've been, where you are, and where you're going? Seeking therapy can feel intimidating, but it’s one of the most emboldening steps you can take toward healing and self-discovery. Many of us were taught to suppress our struggles, to “tough it out,” or feel shame about needing help. The truth is, asking for support is a sign of strength, not weakness. My role is to guide you in adapting to yourself —your thoughts, feelings, and the connection between your brain and body—so you can embrace your authentic self. Therapy isn't about fixing you; it's helping you reconnect with yourself.

Allow me to join you on your journey as you discover your true potential and live the life that you desire.

I specialize in relationship issues, self-worth problems, addictive behaviors, and burnout. Maybe you struggle with perfectionism, procrastination, or imposter syndrome. Your relationships might suffer, or you don’t feel like your life is aligned with who you really are. At these times, we can lean too heavily on things (alcohol, “scrolling”, overworking) that temporarily help, but don’t get us where we’d like to be. I work with people who want to look more deeply inside to create lasting change in their lives and their relationship to themselves. I'm here to help you fulfill the potential you have for joy, connection, and success.
