I want to extend a warm welcome to you! There are often many reasons people choose to make the step of pursuing counseling. For some, they may seek to overcome anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and/or relationship difficulties. For others, they may want to learn new skills such as stress management/relaxation techniques and communication/conflict resolution skills in order to function more effectively in their daily lives. Often, achieving one’s fullest potential in the important aspects of one’s life involves a process of personal growth which consists of overcoming challenges along with gaining new skills and awareness. I certainly believe, and hope you will also find, that the unique nature of the counseling relationship provides an ideal context for this growth to occur. I believe this relationship is very much a partnership in which we both make an investment and commitment to helping you achieve the goals you seek to achieve. I certainly appreciate your initiative and courage in choosing to make positive changes in your life and very much look forward to working with you along this process.
