Stress and Anxiety Suck!

Mindful Wellness Counseling exists because I believe in empowering others to take control of their lives so that they may have the life they deserve.

While many therapists focus on past problems and traumas, I focus on helping clients resolve current problems quickly. I want you to feel better as quickly as possible and I feel this is best accomplished by focusing on TODAY.

Knowing that many of our difficulties come from old wounds is important, and learning to create awareness, accept the past and present, and employ forgiveness are necessary.

My style of therapy is proactive, imaginative, and solution focused.

In my journey, I have been drawn to working with women and those who struggle with anger, anxiety, and addictions. The other side of the equation is that I have struggled with my own anxieties and work addictions. It wasn’t until I started to have chest pains and stress rashes, due to stress and anxiety, that I seriously started to prioritize the issue of stress. I believe that chronic stress and anxiety are health issues that need to be taken seriously.

Through personal and professional experience I know the struggles all too well!

I have been in the field of Mental Health and Chemical Dependency since 2007. This experience makes me an expert in helping those who struggle with poor coping strategies, unhealthy boundaries, and poor self-esteem. I love working with those who deeply want to change their lives and are willing to work from the inside out to achieve their dreams and visions.

My therapy model focuses on taking action! I engage humor, genuine regard, empathy, mindfulness, solution-focused and Dialectical Behavior Therapy informed techniques to achieve the individual therapy goals.

The amazing thing about therapy is that it reminds us that we are not alone. We are not crazy.

We need support, empathy, understanding, and an outlet to process this crazy thing called “life”.
