Childhood trauma

Some homes are calm, nurturing and peaceful.  Some are insecure, volatile and abusive.  Our childhood experiences mold our own self image and worth.  Counseling can help you work through issues and give you the confidence and ability to live your life passionately ever after.

Sexual, emotional and verbal abuse

In life, sometimes horrible things happen!  They sometimes happen to innocent children.  Sometimes they happen to good people.  The impact of the abuse can impact you for years, robbing you of the ability to be really close to the people in your life.  Counseling can help free you of the helplessness, anger and self destructive patterns common to victims of abuse.  Be a survivor, not a victim.

Children of alcoholics

One thing predictable about growing up in an alcoholic home is unpredictability.  You never know when you are safe or when the alcoholic will abuse or abandon you.  So you learn to walk on “eggshells”.  Then as an adult we “find” jobs, relationships and even marriages that help us stay on these eggshells.  This pattern can be broken with time and therapeutic counseling.  Let our counselors help you.

Children of divorce

Your parents modeled a pattern of relating to each other.  They demonstrated how love is (or is not) expressed.  If your parents divorced, particularly if it was volatile, your ability to maintain healthy relationships can be compromised.  Therapy can provide a vehicle to heal from a broken home, reevaluate your worth and provide the relationship skills to live a meaningful, loving and passionate life.
