Sometimes you go through an experience and it completely changes your life, and sometimes all the little stresses add up to one big obstacle. Either way, nothing feels as good as it used to, and you constantly find yourself trapped in the past or worrying about the future. You deserve a life that's free of constant emotional turmoil, and therapy can be a way to process unwanted memories, emotions, and thoughts. I won't promise you that the entire process of therapy will be easy, and I won't tell you that I can fix you; you are not a problem to be solved. What I can do is move alongside you as you shift toward the life you want.
I use a combination of self-reflection and skills building to help you connect with your core values and reduce unwanted behaviors or emotions. I believe that a counseling relationship is built on trust, honesty, communication, and empathy without judgement. You're the expert in your own life, and my job is to help you use your own inner strength.
Deciding to start therapy is a brave choice that can lead to amazing benefits. If you think I might be a good fit for you, please contact our intake specialist by phone, email, or visiting our website at dirksecc.com. I'm excited to meet you!
