Gentle Connections Counseling

The outcome of therapy depends largely on a client’s willingness to engage in the process. Therapy is processing issues by collaborating and speaking with a licensed therapist to achieve a more fulfilling life. This process of change will be unique for each individual. Clients can experience uncomfortable levels of emotions and/or reactions during the therapy process. This is due to the fact that exploring issues may uncover painful memories, emotions and experiences. While uncomfortable, this discomfort is completely normal and a part of the healing and growth process. I will help with the difficult parts of tolerating the discomfort and processing the emotions and perceptions in session. I will provide a safe and nurturing environment so each client can work through issues and reach the therapy goal(s). I help with identifying each client’s coping skills while fostering growth by challenging perceptions and pointing out the courage and strengths that each client possesses.
