Counseling
We all have areas of our lives where we feel stuck. We can’t seem to figure out what’s going on inside us or in our situations. Even if we see a problem, we might not know how to navigate it. When it comes to our own life and experience, as the saying goes, “We can’t see the forest for the trees”.
Counseling is an experience that helps us safely explore these places to make sense of our experience and find more clarity for the experiences to come. Together, we sift through the combination of thoughts, emotions, and experiences that make up who we are to find deeper understanding, clarity, and peace.
This process of engaging internally can change the way you see yourself, engage with others, and experience the world around you. It frees us from the boxes we find ourselves in. We all want that peace and freedom, but it’s hard to get there on our own. My role is to come alongside you to help shed light on these areas and be a guide along the way.
If you feel you’re ready to take that next step, I’m here to journey with you. I see clients in person in Chattanooga, TN and telehealth across the state.
