What is Counseling? What do Counselors Do?
counseling / Counselors
Counseling is another way of helping individuals to solve their emotional, social, interpersonal and personal problems through talk therapy.
Counselors are not advisors or coaches but provide individuals with a better insight into the situation(s) past or present that are hindering them from progressing forward in their lives.
Counselors are like flashlights in a cave (the mind) shining light where it is the darkest, where it may not have been noticed, but may need to be focused on for positive change.

I am trained to treat Clients of all ages. However, I believe treating children under the age of 12 online is not always therapeutic for them. Hence, I treat Clients 12 years of age and up! If you have access to Wi-Fi and a quiet safe place for sessions, then you can have online sessions.
So why not counseling, come in and see me today!
