Peace in Mind Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, MS, MFT
I tell a lot of my clients, "it is never about the thing". What this means is that there is always a deeper meaning behind what you struggle with. It is never just about the, burnt toast, dishes in the sink, or getting stuck in traffic. My goal with you is to get to the underlying issue of the stress, anxiety, and depression and more often than not, it is about unresolved trauma. My favorite question word is, "why?" so this is what I'll try to find for you--the reason--so we can prioritize outcomes. I want to see you thrive, so I prefer you come into therapy ready to work hard to attack the problem.

LAH Therapy Services
Marriage and Family Therapist, Ph.D., LMFT, CAS, EMDR-2
I have been a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist for over 35 years. I take all of my ongoing trainings to stay up to date. I really enjoy doing EMDR because it allows people to process trauma - from childhood trauma experiences to current traumas. I also work with improving relationships, improving communication and internal growth. I work with addiction and all that goes with that such as low self-esteem and personal growth.
