Counseling is the application of mental health, psychological or human development principles, through cognitive, affective, behavioral or systemic interventions, strategies that address wellness, personal growth, or career development, as well as pathology.

The definition also includes these additional attributes:

Counseling deals with wellness, personal growth, career, and pathological concerns. In other words, counselors work in areas that involve relationships. These areas include intra- and interpersonal concerns related to finding meaning and adjustment in such settings as schools, families, and careers.

Counseling is conducted with persons who are considered to be functioning well and those who are having more serious problems. Counseling meets the needs of a wide spectrum of people. Clients seen by counselors have developmental or situational concerns that require help in regard to adjustment or remediation.

Counseling is theory based. Counselors draw from a number of theoretical approaches, including those that are cognitive, affective, behavioral, and systemic. These theories may be applied to individuals, groups, and families.

Change is difficult, but made easier with caring support. My goal is to help you understand the underlying cause of manifested symptoms (suffering), and create a therapeutic plan that will support you through your healing. My clients experience meaningful life changes through our work, which significantly increases their overall sense of well-being and satisfaction.

In addition to my formal education, I have undertaken specialized training in Trauma Informed Practice, Stopping the Violence Program, Narrative Therapy, Anger Management and Family Systems’ approaches.
