“Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.” ~ Viktor E. Frankl
Helping individuals understand their experiences and create new possibilities.
Lisa Walker MA, LMFT
Maybe life doesn’t feel the way you wish it could, and things aren’t going as well as you’d like at home, work, or school, or you’re dealing with signs of anxiety, depression, or trauma. You may be struggling with feeling disconnected from yourself and others or putting your needs at the bottom of your to-do list. Are you feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, confused, anxious, sad, or stuck, in your day to day life? Would you like to better understand the implications of past events and relational patterns that no longer serve you and learn how to trust more in yourself? Would you like to become better aware of your choices and freedom to make decisions that better serve you, rather than living your life on autopilot? Do you want to improve your relationship with yourself and others and live an authentic, meaningful life? Now more than ever, people are feeling uncertain about developing healthy relationships, working through loss, and finding their place in life. Can you remember the last time you thought about what’s most important to you? Sometimes we get stuck in cycles that take us away from what is most important to us. Focusing on what’s most important to us helps us create purpose and meaning in our lives.
People have a natural tendency and capacity for growth and wish to reach their full potential to become more fully themselves and alive. I offer a holistic, client-centered, custom approach in a safe, supportive, nurturing environment that promotes change and personal growth. We start by understanding where you are now and the challenges you are facing. As we work together to help you live the life you want, you will learn invaluable skills to increase your psychological flexibility, clarify what matters most to you, and begin to take effective action that aligns with your core values. This may include learning to establish and maintain healthy boundaries, developing effective communication skills, working through a loss or life transition, or changing a pattern of behavior that is keeping you stuck. Throughout the process, we celebrate your success along the way!
Life is a process of becoming more of one’s authentic self. Within a safe space, we can develop the courage to experience and express our inner reality with another and develop trust in ourselves to become better at making decisions that reflect our personal values. I invite you to take the next step on your journey of self-discovery, personal growth, and healing.
“As no one else can know how we perceive, we are the best experts on ourselves.” ~ Carl Rogers
