Before you make another decision on your own about what to do, please consider this: for better or for worse, you are the sum of your own relationships - personal, professional, casual or otherwise.
–Seth Myers, MA, LPC
Are you in a family that's making you crazy? Do you feel like you or the significant others in your life need a mental overhaul? Do you feel like there's no clear sense of boundaries, fairness or mutual respect in your relationships? Would you rather just hide from the rest of the world than to try to find love? It is always a chore to discuss certain issues with your significant other? Are you afraid to take that next step? If so, then your social situation is probably in need of repair. You need the help of someone outside of the situation who is objective and able to piece things together.
It's been said that most of our misery comes from failed relationships. But we still keep trying to get it right! Why is that? The urge to love and be loved is an undeniable and universal need. It's what makes us human. When this need is unfulfilled, we start to fall apart. When these associations suffer, so do you! There is no greater feeling in life than to know love, friendship and connectedness. Open your heart, and ask yourself "isn't it worth it to me to work on this?" It's an honor to me to assist people in taking this first step. To me, the relationship is as much a living entity as the people who comprise it. It must be cared for, continually. Allow me to join you on this rewarding journey. You might be amazed what a difference a we can make!
My counseling approach is one deeply rooted in the core value of “taking care of ourselves by taking care of our relationships.” In the last eight years as a private practitioner, my philosophy has allowed me to successfully help people with various presenting counseling needs. As we journey together, most of my clients are quite surprised to find out that most roads lead back to relationship problems, regardless of the “presenting” problem. Indeed, I have had the privilege of helping people cope with and overcome grief, chronic pain, anger, depression, anxiety, and substance abuse or numerous other issues with this approach. Sometimes, the problems we struggle to overcome in life are not what they seem. In hindsight, if our relationships with others had been stronger, then things most certainly would have turned out for the better. As your counselor, I make it my mission to bring all of these key relationships to fruition. That way, you have all the support you need no matter what life throws at you. And that alone can make the difference!
