Individual Counseling

People are motivated to come to individual counseling for all kinds of different reasons. Some come eagerly…others reluctantly. I know that sometimes “change” is thrust upon people while other times people intentionally seek to change their lives…even in dramatic ways. Regardless of the circumstances prompting change… the process can be filled with complexities, strong emotions, and difficult choices. I commit to you a safe and accepting place where you can honestly explore the issues you are confronting.

Counseling is a process. Counseling is about learning to be different – different on the inside and different on the outside. Rarely is there a straight-line between where you are now and where you want to go. Your growth and change will likely involve taking two steps forward and one back…until you discover a path that leads you from where you are to where you want to be.

I will not tell you what to do or how to live your life. As your counselor, I will

  1. help you sort-through the complexities and hidden meaning of your thoughts and feelings,

  2. assist you to identify options and choices that are in your best interest, and then

  3. support you as you put your choice into action.
