Individual Counseling
Sometimes the world can feel overwhelmingly negative. From daily news stories about the latest tragedy to comparing ourselves to others’ “perfect lives” on social media, we are often faced with a barrage of bad news that can make us feel hopeless and lost. While we can’t avoid negativity, we can learn to manage the painful parts of life so that we don’t feel overwhelmed by them. We can work toward embracing more joyful moments and learning to accept the not-so-great ones.
We build our lives one experience at a time—experiences that are sometimes tragic and heartbreaking and some that are joyous and comforting. Oftentimes we don’t know how to or simply don’t want to deal with processing the painful experiences, and that affects the way we face new challenges and opportunities. Together, we can process and learn to move through those painful moments and find a way to live the life you want.
Maybe you aren’t feeling hopeless or sad, but more lost and confused about what to do next. Sometimes in life we begin to feel stuck and unfulfilled and the idea of change seems necessary but intimidating and overwhelming. I can be there to support your exploration of those potential changes and encourage you to embrace the next steps in your journey.
Relationship Counseling
Most of us hear about how relationships take “work”, however I like to think of it as effort. Strong and loving relationships take skills a lot of us haven’t been taught. We don’t get an intimate relationship class in school and, oftentimes, the examples we see in our real lives aren’t exactly the blueprint we want to repeat for ourselves. Additionally, the ways in which we were cared for as children can influence the way we connect with our intimate partners and we may need to recognize some unhealthy attachment patterns.
The good news is, we are never too far along to learn those skills and make changes to the ways we connect with one another if we are committed to putting in the effort.
Couples therapy is often thought of as a last-ditch effort to save a relationship, and while that is sometimes the case, seeking relationship counseling does not mean that your relationship is doomed. Taking the step of asking for help means that you and your partner want your relationship to be strong and fulfilling.
Regardless of how far along you are in your relationship, having the support of a counselor to help navigate the inevitable ups and downs of a relationship can be very beneficial. Let’s work together to heal wounds and strengthen the foundation of your relationship.
