Adults
Adults of all ages can benefit by joining in a healing relationship with a counselor to address emotional difficulties and take stock of where they are on life's path. People come to see me in counseling for a number of reasons including to
- Find ways to feel happier and more secure in their lives
- Explore the past and how it impacts them now
- Look at current relationships and how they might grow or change
- Address addictions and other unhealthy lifestyles
- Find ways to lesson the impact of traumas on their current life
Couples
A committed relationship can be a source of tremendous comfort and joy. It also challenges us to look closely at ourselves and the impact that we have on another person. Couples counseling can be helpful when a relationship has become more friction than fun, when communication is stalled or when unhealthy patterns are not going away on their own. People come to couples counseling to:
- Re-open lines of communication
- Learn new ways to move through conflict
- Heal old resentments
- Increase intimacy
- Get help with entering a new phase of relationship such as marriage
