What is Guiding Light Counseling
Guiding Light Counseling is a private mental health practice dedicated to providing specialized, compassionate, and evidence-based therapeutic services to people suffering with various mental health disorders, such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, addictions, eating disorders, personality disorders, and adjustment disorders. My core focus will be on addressing the underlying traumas causing these disorders. I aim to create a safe, understanding, and confidential environment where clients can heal, rebuild their lives, and achieve lasting wellbeing. My commitment to culturally competent care, integrated treatment approaches, and community collaboration differentiates me in the mental health landscape.
Mission
I believe that trauma is at the root of most mental health disorders, and therefore I make it my mission to discover the underlying causes of my clients' symptoms. Sure, I can teach coping skills to manage symptoms, but wouldn't you rather resolve the main problem?
Vision
My vision is to empower my clients to take control of their mental health and begin living life to the fullest. We all have traumas, some obvious, some more subtle, which have shaped our everyday behaviors and feelings. When we resolve our trauma we become a new person and are able to completely change our life.
