Ah, the New Year. A time when most of us make lists of things we want to change, things we want to do, and goals we want to accomplish. I’ve spent the last few days looking back on 2021. For me, it was a whirlwind, and I accomplished a lot. I finished my second Master’s in Mental Health Counseling, I passed the CPCE and the NCE, I was offered a position working with a therapist that I genuinely admire, and we sold our house and moved to another city for that position. Out of everything I accomplished, the one thing that keeps resonating with me is that I never quit, and I never gave up; I believed in myself enough to know I could accomplish my goals. Now I can sit here and tell you to make your list, and be mindful and do your visualization and start creating habits, and all of those skills are helpful and they work.
However, there is one thing you have to start with and that is
Believing in yourself
If I can give you anything to take into 2022 its this
Life can weigh you down, it can be overwhelming when you are juggling loved ones, children, work, parents, trauma, grief, loss, major life changes, etc. It can make you feel as if you are carrying the world on your shoulders and sometimes you need someone to help you unload it, explore it, and release it. My approach is one of guidance. My goal is to guide you through your struggles and pain and back to your true authentic self. I am an integrated therapist who believes in treating the mind, body, and soul using various theories and techniques. I help my clients explore their feelings, challenges, and behaviors and discover where they are stemming from. I guide my clients through acknowledging those feelings and reactions and work on changing the behaviors and bringing them to a place of acceptance. I use a variety of techniques including person-centered, solution-focused, cognitive behavior therapy, expressive art therapy, meditation, brainspotting, and psychodynamics. I have created a holistic and safe environment for you to unload your worries and fears. I believe that every person is worthy of acceptance and peace and I strive to help you meet your fullest protentional and embrace your uniqueness.
