Counselor/Therapist, M.A., Th.M., LPC-S, CART
Individual counseling is offered to individuals in helping them achieve control over actions through an understanding of how thoughts, feelings, and decisions produce actions. We provide a safe environment where one’s private pain can be shared in confidence with a trained therapist to grow in self-awareness and self-esteem while helping a person make decisions, solve problems, and overcome past and present abuses and pains. Sometimes when negative memories prohibit an individual from enjoying a satisfying life, issues in one’s family of origin can be explored to understand the past and seek to establish a new identity.
Feelings like fear, sorrow, anger, rejection, and loneliness can lessen as self-acceptance and coping skills are encouraged and strengthened.

Dr. Wayne Bullock
Psychologist, PsyD, MEd
Life is filled with challenges. We all approach these challenges in characteristic ways that are shaped by the life we have lived up until that moment. Some times, the way we respond leaves us feeling depressed, as if life is empty, barren, or so deeply unsatisfying we would rather not participate fully. Depression then can become reinforcing, because being depressed limits opportunities to find moments of happiness or connection. Therapy examining what led to the depression in the beginning, as opposed to a "band-aid" approach of only trying to reduce the depressed feelings, can not only result in you feeling less depressed, but aid you in living a life even more thriving than before you were depressed.

Psychologist, Psy.D.
A classic definition of depression is "anger turned inward," and through a non-judgmental exploration of this anger and the relationships involved in its formation, this anger can be worked with and freed.
