Life’s experiences often disrupt our sense of well-being, leaving many feeling lost or distressed. When this happens, living can become more difficult, or at times even unbearable. Our goals are to help you develop new perspectives and life skills so that you can free yourself from habitual patterns of anxiety, depression, and criticism; deal with sabotaging addictive behaviors; rediscover your sense of personal power; learn to move forward in your life rather than feeling stuck. Individual counseling is beneficial as it’s more personalized, allowing the therapist to focus on the client’s specific problems and develop a set of strategies and treatments tailored to the patient’s situation.
