Choosing to start counseling is a sign of strength. People seek counseling for a variety of reasons. To me, the most critical part of counseling is finding someone to work with professionally with whom you are comfortable. My goal is to collaborate with you in working towards creating lasting change in your life. You are not alone.
Do you no longer want to live in your struggles and limitations that are holding you back? If you desire new strategies to overcome general “blah”, self-doubt or more severe conflict in relationships, I look forward to supporting you and helping you achieve more overall satisfaction and happiness.
If you are an adult or couple struggling with life challenges, anxiety, depression or needing to enhance your “tools” for dealing with difficult and stressful situations, I would be happy to explore your needs with you and help you discover how to create lasting success.
For parents with pre-teen and teens having difficulties with managing stress, school pressures, anxiety, depression, peers and interpersonal or family dynamics, I can work with you to assess and help guide you and your child to more successes. Parent coaching and support is also available if you have a younger child.
Personalized services are offered in San Diego. Secure Telehealth video and phone therapy sessions are also offered to any person residing in California. Research shows that both are effective in positive treatment outcomes and we can discuss which method best meets your needs. *UPDATE 9/2020: Given the ongoing Corona Virus (COVID-19) health pandemic that we are currently faced with, all sessions continue to be offered via telehealth until further notice.
Please contact me to discuss your specific situation and I look forward to our work together.
Regards,
Kim
