"Follow your bliss and the universe will open doors for you where there were only walls."

~Joseph Campbell

  • Are you tired of struggling with depression or anxiety - or both?

  • Are you wanting to get more out of Life?

  • Are you curious about what's possible for you?

  • Do you wish it could be easier?

If you are seeking a counselor in order to focus on your terrible behaviors and get labelled with a diagnosis, and/or if your goal is to examine in great detail all the things that are wrong about you, please keep looking.

I want to know what you are hoping to do with your life, what is getting in the way of your having it already, and what it will take for you to begin those first steps toward greater satisfaction.

What Do YOU Really Want?

While this seems like a rather simple question, sometimes this is a difficult question to answer.

Many times, the answer is a detailed list of what you DON'T want. That's a great start!!

It is important to take the time to stop and consider your own answer to this question. Sometimes the process of changing your answer from what you DON'T want to what you DO want is enough to help you arrive at an understanding.

Sometimes, this might be a challenging task.

Those are times when it helps to get some coaching and come up with a crystal clear outcome that you can see, hear, and feel as you imagine it.

Whether you call it coaching, guidance, counseling, or therapy, you have made an important step forward by reaching out for guidance. It is wise for you to consider who is available, and work with someone whose style and philosophy appeals to you. You will do the best work with a therapist who can join with you where you are and provide you with the support to get you where you want to go - whether it's toward a new goal, or away from a source of pain. Progress happens when you feel confident about the person you are working with. If you are seeking a therapist for a loved one, make sure that the person is included in the decision-making process. Since treatment effectiveness is correlated to the quality of the relationship between client and therapist, this is a very important step to take! My aim is to help people determine the appropriate path to their chosen objectives. You know yourself very well. This may be a surprise to you, but the answers to your challenges will come from within. You have held these answers all along. The challenge you have is to figure out how to access them, then find the courage to act on them. Sometimes this takes someone else to ask you the right questions.
