All of us experience some confusion, anxiety, sadness, or conflict periodically, but if daily life becomes characterized by those feelings, something about life is out of balance. Do you feel stuck in a relationship or job, or troubled with negative, or fearful thoughts that won't go away? Sometimes we can loose a sense of hopefulness and pleasure about life. Perhaps we experienced a recent or far distant loss that left us floundering in sadness and grief. Maybe we have become weary searching for spiritual fulfillment, yet finding most ideas of a higher power to be disheartening or unbelievable. Counseling is effective for issues like these. My clinical resources include Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, IFS, ACT, Self-Esteem, existential therapy, trauma informed approaches, and the Grief Recovery Method. I use strength based interventions that confront self-defeating belief systems, access strengths, and help create the life you want to live. Regardless of our methods, the goal is always to reduce pain and increase fulfillment. I believe in your native capacity for transformation and healing; and it's okay if that belief is not available to you right now. For more information please visit my website. Let's talk.
