Thrive Within Counseling
When life is sweet,
say thank you
and celebrate.
​
When life is bitter,
say thank you
and grow.
Who I am:
​
I am a Mental Health Therapist with a history of working in the mental health field for over 20 years. My hope is to support clients in developing a stronger and healthier sense of self while increasing access to and understanding of feelings. By reframing our experiences and learning new ways of thinking about them, we are able to gain insight and meaning. My specialty is in working with individuals and couples, improving communication, emotional connection, and day-to-day functioning. The focus is often on the quality of the relationship, the exploration of unmet needs, and coping skills.
I believe that clients do well when they feel a healthy balance between mind, body, and spirit. Sometimes life becomes too difficult to manage and we need a little support to get us back to where we feel good again.
​
By utilizing Positive Psychology, the process of therapy is focused on client's strengths, virtues, and hopes so individuals are enabled to thrive once again.
As humans, we experience various trauma throughout our lives. This can sometimes result in anxiety, depression, grief, loss, and pain. By reframing our experiences and learning news ways of thinking about them, we are free to heal those wounds while gaining insight and meaning.
