Peace Within Counseling LLC

“In my early professional years I was asking the question: How can I treat, or cure or change this person?  Now I would phrase the question in this way: How can I provide a relationship which this person may use for his own personal growth?”  -Carl Rogers

Are you Asking yourself if Therapy is right for you?  Are you ready to seek changes that will make your life better in the end?  It may take work and there may be some pretty hard days.  However, in the end you will feel better and be present for yourself and your loved ones.

Clients often come in wanting a quick fix and I’m not going to give that to you.  I can offer a safe place for you to work through your issues, concerns and whatever is bringing you to therapy.  I will hold space and allow you to share your deepest and darkest secrets and allow you to be able to cry or scream.  I will give YOU tools that will help you on those days you may be struggling or the days when you feel you can not go on.

You see, my job as your counselor is to help you learn through the pain and even understand what you may have done differently or what you can do again if things get to the same point.  My job is to help you reach YOUR goals in whatever way we feel will work for each unique situation.  My goal is to Help YOU Find the PEACE You Deserve!
