Welcome to my site. I have always believed that in order to best help another, that I need to understand and consider their whole being. This is why Become Counseling Center offers  a holistic variety of approaches. I am guided by the knowledge that each individual holds their own pattern of growth, and their own solutions to their problems. I consider myself the horse that drives the travels, while the client holds the reigns, decides how fast to move, and directs the course.

There are three specific areas in which I seek to assist clients in becoming their true selves. First, I utilize the therapeutic process of Transformative Touch. It is a somatic therapy modality which seeks to help clients reclaim and embrace the places inside of them which have been forgotten or misunderstood. This technique creates change within the complex intricacies of the body, and does so in an 'in the moment' sort of way. Second, traditional talk therapy techniques are also available. Using active cognitive and emotional restructuring techniques, the client is taught how to challenge old distorted thoughts and to create more helpful constructive thinking.  And finally, if desired, brief pastoral counseling and healing ministry techniques are available to those clients which find strength in spiritual guidance. At Become Counseling Center, all parts of you are invited and welcome.
