Your religious faith is vital to you. You want a mental health professional who supports your beliefs and provides advice steeped in your faith. All Counseling’s goal is to connect the hurting to the healers, and we understand your desire to strengthen your faith and mental health simultaneously.

The stories family members tell themselves have a measurable impact on their interactions with one another. Family members who see their interactions as a series of battles, for example, have very different interactions than those who see them as learning experiences, milestones or challenges to overcome. There are times when our stories prevent us from moving forward. As the old adage says, “I...

It takes courage to ask for help, to open areas in one's heart and mind that have been protected, perhaps for very good reasons. Maybe now you are feeling that it is the time for you to look at your life, at past events that have helped or hindered you, and how those events might still be affecting you in terms of inaccurate assumptions about yourself and unhealed emotional wounds or maybe you...

Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. So why therapy now? What are your hopes, dreams, and sense of the future from therapy? Problems and obstacles only survive and thrive when they are supported and backed up by particular ideas, beliefs, and principles, and can feel like a relentless need to escape a moment that never ends. Exploring t...

I work with clients who are ready to be better. Face it. Therapy isn’t easy. It’s uncomfortable. I know. But would you rather let the problems in your life fester? Constant worrying, feelings of sadness, conflict with your partner? Won’t those just continue if you keep doing nothing? Drop the old patterns of behavior, grieve the loss of your ex, figure out why you’re so anxious all the time and...

We can feel chased by persistent feelings of dissatisfaction, grief, or loss, and question our self-worth. It may feel increasingly difficult to "hold it together for" others in our lives. Even though we need help, we may feel skeptical about...
