Burnout: It has been said “it’s lonely at the top”. You have reached the top in your career, but your personal life is in shambles or you’re experiencing “burnout”. The Therapist problem solves and suggests interventions for their clients but, who can the Therapist talk to? You’re a Veteran struggling to come back to the “Real World”, and every day and night are a battle with PTSD symptoms. You may be a parent that is at the “end of your rope” with a child with Autism, ADHD, or significant depression and is exhibiting negative behaviors in the home and at school. You may need help in processing loss, divorce, and retirement.

I address mental and life adjustment health issues. I strive to make sure you have a correct diagnosis and provide in session a non-judgmental, supportive, and safe environment. Group Support: Integrity Counseling has joined Sheep Dog Coalition in providing a therapeutic group support setting. See web site for more information.
25+ years’ experience as an LPC has taught me to be a good listener, and support you, the client, in being heard and processing your issues. I have sessions available for scheduling for emergency services and can connect you to Psychiatrist Dr. Pal for medication evaluation and management. Take the first step and contact me today.
