Adult Personal Counseling

Individual counseling or adult personal counseling is for everyday difficulties that continue to cause stress and impact your sense of well-being, or for problems caused by painful life events. 

Anxiety, trauma, loss, depression, transition, life stress, personal growth, and relationship difficulties are what I work with most often. 

Life brings unique challenges to each of us. I enjoy helping people  live life forward from difficulties that have held them back. 

Moving forward might mean: 

• Putting the past into the past
• Learning more effective ways to approach difficulties
• Gaining an increased sense of direction or purpose
• Having a more peaceful life.

We work on:

• Calming distressing thoughts, feelings, and physical reactions
• Improving relationships with others
• Gaining insight and options
• Making life-enhancing behavior shifts
• Improving the relationship you have with yourself.

I offer support, reflection, skill building, and guidance while respecting the idea that given information and options, the individual in front of me  is the best decision-maker for their own life choices.
