AUSTIN’S STATEMENT
My clients find me easy to talk to, warm, genuine, and effective. We work together in partnership to establish a connection as an antidote to isolation. My clients gain the resources, support, and judgement-free environment that they utilize on their journey. Together, we uncover obstructions by pathogenic beliefs that have emerged from early life experience; increase functioning and awareness in order to make better choices; and ultimately create a life worth living. My clients appreciate how we work together to uncover what they want and what’s getting in the way; define values and move towards a life aligned with those values; answer a calling instead of being discouraged by comparisons; understand the source of feelings in order to address core concerns; and ultimately build a more fulfilling life.
Whether it’s addiction, anxiety, depression, relational issues, trauma or something else, my clients are looking to heal so that their reactions to the world are not programmed by past wounds, and they are instead able to deal with the present moment appropriately. Deep down we know what we need to do. So what makes it hard to do it? Awareness precedes control in all things. We need to understand what’s under the hood before we make adjustments. This can all be done on your own, but it’s my belief that the fastest and most effective way is with a professional in your corner.
Anything that knocks you off your course and asks you to rearrange yourself can turn out to be a powerful guide back to yourself. You don’t need to go through it alone. Please reach out for a free consultation to see if we are a good fit.
